So much for a free directory service. No wonder they are making billions in annual profit for themselves whereas their shareholders are looking down the toilet-hole. It`s time to look for another service provider,that`s for sure ! UPDATE Sept. 2006

All calls I make that are chargeable go through VoIP. $24.50 per month is as much as the 'Three Amigos' get from this little black duck ;-) Cheers Hally I sense an angry and confused DA ;-)
