5. Free Information Calls
Cell phone companies are charging us $1.00 to $1.75 or more for 411 information calls when they don't have to.
Most of us do not carry a telephone directory in our vehicle, which makes this situation even more of a problem. When you need to use the 411 information option, simply dial: (800) FREE 411, or (800) 373-3411 without incurring any charge at all. Program this into your cell phone now.
Alltel -- my carrier -- does charge minutes for this as it is an 800 #, and I assume roaming and long distance if you're in a roaming area.
BUT it's better than all that PLUS $1 call!
