I don't think I have written about USA Datanet on this blog.  They just reminded me to tell everyone how great they are, so I will gladly do so.

USA Datanet is our long distance provider.  They provide a local number that we call when we think we are going to make a lengthy long-distance call. 

There isn't a contract, no minimum monthly fees, and you don't change your long distance company. They charge $.10/minute, which is pretty high, but, they have a $1/call maximum to 10 surrounding states, and $2/call maximum to the rest of the country, so depending on how much your regular long distance costs, you can judge when you should use USA Datanet versus a direct-dialed long distance call.

They have local numbers all over the country, so we get the same rates while traveling.  They have higher rates if there isn't a local number, presumably since it costs them more money to have the 800 number, so we don't use that as much.

They also have VOIP, but I didn't get around to trying them before I gave up on VOIP altogether. 

(You get $5 and I get $10 if you sign up, so let me know if you want to try it out)
