How Can I Get My Phone Fees Waived?

* From  Date: Friday, February 16 2007

Many long-distance plans include monthly charges in addition to regular calling fees.

  • Most charges are between $1 and $5 per month, but some are higher.
  • Ask whether your provider imposes a monthly charge and find out the exact amount.
  • Don't be afraid to negotiate.
  • If you are a high-volume customer, your provider might waive the monthly fee.
  • They also might offer you other discounts and waivers. It never hurts to ask.
