"Introductory" long distance rates - Are they worth it?

Do the introductory rates offered by long distance service providers sound too good to be true? Well, most often, they are. Most companies usually use these attractively low introductory rates to lure customers to sign up, only to raise the prices once they are locked in a commitment. It is the old ploy of ‘baiting and switching’ that is used by these companies.

IBNtel does not use any of these ‘introductory’ gimmicks to entice customers.
What they do have is genuine low-rates and great customer service. All the rates are displayed on the company’s website. Their domestic rates are as low as 1.7c per minute and their international calling rates are the best that are available in the industry. With IBNtel, there are no hidden costs, and neither do they believe in changing the rates suddenly. Customers always know exactly what they are paying for when they get their monthly bills. Each bill is itemized to show the calls made, and the duration and cost of each call. This way, the customer knows that he/she is not being charged anything extra. If the monthly bill does not reach the minimum amount of $20, only then is the customer charged a nominal fee of $1.95.

There are several benefits that IBNtel offers its customers. For example, with their direct dialing the customer does not have to dial access codes, which can be quite complicated. Another benefit that IBNtel offers is that of the six-second pulse, by which the customer always pays for what has been used by him/her. Then there is the easy payment benefit, where you can pay your monthly bill according to your convenience, either by cash, check, credit card or money order. Or you can even pay online. All you have to do is sign up with IBNtel and make use of all these benefits in less than 5 working days.
