Cut Your Home Phone Service or Dump it and go VoIP


It is possible to cut down on your current phone service by at least half of what you are already paying? This is possible by getting combined long distance and local phone service. When you get it in a bundle or over the internet, you only have to pay a small monthly fee. Not only does this save you a lot of money each month, it will also allow you to only worry about a single bill rather than multiple ones. There is just no reason to be paying for both local and long distance separately any more.

All you need to do to get this long distance and local phone service bundle is find out which provider is offering the bundle in your area. It might be from Verizon, it might be from Windstream, it might be from AT&T, dPI, Embarq, or Frontier. If you don't currently have a home phone, then you can still get service through your computer. This is what a lot of people are currently doing. You will need to have Internet that is better than dial up in order to do it. If you do have that kind of speed, VoIP might be the way to go.

Some of the companies that are currently offering local phone service through VoIP are Qt talk, Phone Power, and Lingo Go talk. If  your budget is your main concern, then you will want to check out Phone Power, who is currently offering free calling to local numbers. Out of state calling and even calls to Canada are also free, and you will just pay $10 a month to include long distance in that. Packet 8 is rated at one of the best quality VoIP options, so if you are concerned about the call quality above all else, you should check them out.

Overall, being able to speak with people across the world is something that will never go away. Make life easier for yourself by checking out the long distance and local phone service bundles being offered, or consider setting up a VoIP service on your home computer. You'll be able to speak with anyone you want from now on.
