Dial Around Service

You can "dial around" your Primary InterExchange Carrier (PIC), dialing an access code or a toll free number to access the network of an alternative long distance carrier. After you have accessed the alternative carrier network you can dial the final destination number of your call. There is a certain inconvenience, using "dial arounds", because of the prefix or access code you have to dial. The obvious advantage is that you can get better rates with the "dial around" company without the necessity to switch your Primary InterExchange Carrier. We recommend using "dial arounds" in cases when you are satisfied with the state-to-state rates of your current long distance provider, but wish to achieve lower rates for not so frequent instate long distance and/or international calls.
