Cell phone companies are charging $1.00 to $1.75 or more> for 411 Information calls. Since no one carries a telephone directory in their vehicle, they get away with it.

When you need to use the 411 Information option, simply dial 1(800) FREE 411, or 1(800)373-3411; you will incur no charge. This works on your home telephone as well.

If you enter this number into your cell phone you will
always have a way to get a phone number if you need
one.
  
This is the kind of information people don't mind
 receiving, so pass it on to your family and friends.
