UXBRIDGE, Ont. – Compton Home Phone has arrived in Uxbridge and Port Perry, Ontario, the company announced late last week.
Independent cable operator Compton Cable is now telling customers, and others in their regions, that if they have an Uxbridge or Port Perry phone number, they can switch – and are booking new installations beginning January 28th.
Compton’s per minute rate without a package is six cents. “To get a rate of even 10 cents per minute from the competition, you’d be paying $7.95 in fees before you even pick up the phone to make a call,” notes the Compton release.
For North American long distance there are three packages available:
* 100 minutes per month, with additional minutes at 5 cents per minute for $4.95 per month
* 300 minutes per month, with additional minutes at 5 cents per minute for $9.95 per month
* 1000 minutes per month, with additional minutes at 5 cents per minute for $19.95 per month
Its International rates “are extremely competitive,” it adds, “in many cases costing as much as 85% less than Bell’s rates. For example, you can call the U.K., China, Spain, Ireland, Portugal, Singapore, the Netherlands and many other locations for only 2 cents per minute,” says the company.
