I think their 950-0488 > rates are higher than 1+ ... also their 950-1011(?) rate is different. According to Metromedia customer service rep "April" rates on my residential account are, for interstate calls: 1 + calling card day $0.17 - $0.26 $0.26 - $0.29 evening $0.11 - $0.21 $0.16 - $0.19 nite $0.09 - $0.16 $0.13 - $0.17 This is per minute rates. You have to figure out at what point it is cheaper to use a calling card with a surcharge.
