Long distance calls
What will be a long distance call and what’s local? It seems there’s no
straight answer.
According to customer service …
Calls to the same area code as your phone are local
Calls to all other area codes are long distance
Example, if your phone is from Ottawa, area code 613
Ottawa to Hull
long distance
Ottawa to Vancouver
long distance
Ottawa to Cornwall
local
Vancouver to Vancouver
long distance
Vancouver to Ottawa

Vancouver to Cornwall

However, I made a call from Ottawa(613) to Hull(819) and was only
charged 25 cents
Voice mail
•
It's free… unless you use your cell phone to check your messages
•
When a message is left, the phone makes a noise. The voicemail icon
appears on the phone and stays until you listen to the message. Access
from a regular phone is free. Call your cell phone number, and when the
voice mail system answers, press # and enter your code.
