Hmm, with so many 1010 dial around plans – 10-10321, 10-10811, 10-10629, 10-10297 and 10-10220 – how do you pick the best one? Well, you have to look up rates for your specific calling patterns and understand how dial arounds work.
WHAT IS A 10-10 DIAL AROUND PLAN?
Dial around is an alternative long distance service offered by many long distance carriers that allows you to access their network while keeping your existing long distance carrier. In the US and Canada each carrier has a unique seven digit code (PIC code). You can frequently obtain lower rates by bypassing, dialing around, your home or work primary long distance carrier. To do so simply dial the seven digit code of the dial around your desire before dialing a telephone number. Your call will then be routed to the dial around carrier that is associated with the code you dialed. In effect you are “dialing around” your primary long distance carrier. Please note that often you have to register with a dial around company to receive the lowest rates.
YOU HAVE SEEN THE 10-10-321 ADS, THE 10-10-220 ADS, THE 10-10345 ADS, YOU’VE DIALED THE 10-10 CODE, BUT DID YOU REALLY SAVE??
The answer, yes, maybe, sort of, and no. In many cases using a 1010 plan will save you money depending on when you make the majority of your calls, the number of long distance calls you make and where you are calling (in-state, state-to-state, or international).
