Dear HT-ers, Our 1 year business package (all phone) from Verizon will end soon, thankfully, and we are seeking less expensive alternatives. A company called DC Communications from Rhode Island is offering .039/minute for long distance and toll free with supposedly none of the added fees or surcharges that Verizon adds to your bill. Has anyone ever heard of them? They are persistent. We live in Northfield where cell phone and other newer technologies tend not to perform as reliably as necessary. We currently use Comcast, which we are very happy with, for cable TV and high speed Internet access (versus a horrible experience with Verizon) but they don't offer 800 numbers, which we rely on too. We have T-Mobile for our cell phone, which is acceptable, and a huge improvement over Cingular. As a lodging establishment, the phone and computer are our lifelines to customers, so we can't afford to experiment. However, all this is expensive and we feel there must be a better way. Advice?
