Don't want to dial the extra numbers? Sign up Here and you wont have to. Just 3.45¢ per minute without the 39¢ connect fee.
Is 10-10-297 a good deal?
10-10-297 is nearly identical to the 10-10-987 program. In most cases this will not save you any money over programs such as Pioneer and Opex.
Is the 10-10-297 dial around service any better than than the 10-10-220 service?
The 10-10-297 boast a low 3 cents per minute with a 39 cent connect fee. Having a connect fee means that you are charged 39 cents just to connect the call (even if it's just to leave a message on an answering machine) and then 3 cents a minute after that.
Review Table A and you will see that for most people this is actually a better deal than their 10-10-220 program. At 20 minutes of talk time, it works out to be the identical cost as the10-10-220 program. After 20 minutes it actually works out to be less expensive since 10-10-220 bumps their cost back up to 7 cents per minute and the 10-10-297 programs average cost works it way down closer to 3 cents per minute.
Follow the math here: A one time connect fee of $0.39 plus 3 cents per minute divided by the total duration of the call will give you your average cost per minute.
((Total Number of Minutes X .03) + (.39 connect fee) / call duration) = Ave cost/min
See Table A for results
As you can see by the results in Table A, the 10-10-297 program is more cost effective for the average consumer than 10-10-220.
However, compare this to other national programs such as CogniPhone where there is also no monthly fees, and average cost is actually 3.89 cents per minute (in 6 second increments) and you do not have to dial any 10-10 numbers.
You should also compare this to using a service such as OPEX at just 2.9 cents per minute for any duration of call. Even AT&T can give you a flat rate of just 7 cents per minute for any duration of call.
You will have to talk a VERY long time to even come close to matching the price of programs such a Pioneer or most other serious providers.
