From: Logan, UT (United States)
Experience: 18 Months
Pros: Great Customer service! Awesome Rates even international

Cons: none

Summary: When I switched numbers I thought my long distance would be moved automatically. It wasn't and my bill went to $36 instead of $7 with Unitel. They have been great to work with. I can't say enough good about them. Oh, my parents and I both called Bulgaria..my phone bill was $8 for a 17 minute call my parents was over $90! When calling international it was as if I was talking to someone next door. I now tell my friends to switch!

Basic Service

Overall Rating:
4 out of 5
By: B C on Saturday, June 16, 2007
From: Chicago, IL (United States)
Experience: 2 Months
Summary: The rate was good enough for me to stop using a calling card which charges .05 cents per minute. The change over was easy enough. It took a couple billing cycles for my local service provider to drop charges from the previous intra- and inter-state long distance provider (my fault - laziness.) Otherwise everything is smooth and there are no issues with the service.

Uni-Tel 2.5 Plan

Overall Rating:
4 out of 5
By: Bernie Webber on Monday, March 12, 2007
From: Anthem, AZ (United States)
Experience: 3 Months
Pros: A very good, low cost long distance plan. Customer Service is fast and responsive.

Cons: Uni-Tel uses Qwest telephone lines under contract for servicing my area. Qwest is also my local carrier, so I was confused about the Qwest "PIC" code when my long distance service first started. A quick email to Customer Service addressed my concerns.

Summary: I am very happy with this plan. I make very few long distance calls, and this plans seems the best available for my limited usage. With electronic billing and credit card payments, there are No minimum charges or service fees.

Long Distance - Did you know?

Many people think using Calling Cards are less expensive than using regular long distance. How can this be? Don’t they have to pay for the usage of the same lines as everyone else? Sure they do, but calling card companies have become experts in marketing tactics!

Read the fine print of the calling card, they often charge for units, not minutes. A unit can be any measure of time they decide, plus they often have minimum call amounts and round up to the next unit. The bottom line is, they have done the math, and it’s going to cost most people more money than selecting a good long distance plan.
