Compare IDT Long Distance Phone Service

The recent advertising campaigns by IDT has drawn a lot of attention, however, a comparison of the programs to two popular long distance companies shows that the IDT rates may actually be on the high end. Compound the high rates with some of the reported billing issues and we have to recommend avoiding any IDT program.
