I do agree with you on that one. I run into that problem with Kate, Gerry's family and my girlfriend in South Carolina. It *would* be nice if they'd follow Cingular's lead and start those night calling minutes at 7 p.m. but I'm not holding my breath. Of course, Cingular/AT&T is the worst carrier in the USA. My youngest sister has them (her hubby arranged for their cell service) and I keep telling her to drop Cingular and go with Verizon. But it's got to be hard on you when you're in the Pacific time zone and the rest of us are a lot earlier than you are. -- Piggy's Pad

BTW, just a heads up for you.......and this is part of the reason why we were able to go ahead and drop AT&T. Were you aware that AT&T is no longer offering their Unlimited Nationwide long distance to new customers and they're going to be dropping this plan all together in the future? According to what I've read, there's been no date set for them taking away the unlimited long distance but it's coming. That plan was a lifesaver for us when my Dad died and we found out what my older sister had **really** been up to. I mean, I was racking up over 4,000 (yup, that's right......four THOUSAND) minutes of long distance between myself and my two younger sisters in Little Rock and Houston. We never could have paid the bill if we had to pay for each minute......even at 5 cents. But now, with both Mom and Dad being gone, I don't foresee that kind of thing happening again. And if it does, I guess I just call Verizon and go for the "heavy duty" plan. (NT) -- Sandy, 5:28:33 am, Thu, 06/07/07
Wow! I just got a flyer from AT&T offering free nationwide long distance if I switched. I am VERY happy with Qwest tho, so not switching. My cable company offers digital long distance they could add to my bundle (tv and internet) with unlimited long distance in the US and Canada... I'll probably switch to them if Qwest drops the unlimited long distance. I want to keep my same home phone number tho... for sentimental reasons. We've had this same phone number for 45 years now... and Daddy has relatives that I have no clue how to reach that have this number... so I do NOT want to lose it! Silly maybe, but oh well....
