Thread: Question on faxing

I was wondering how much it costs to send a fax from your home phone land line? We have to dial a 1 to get it through to places considered long distance.

I believe the charge is the same as a long distance phone call and based on minutes, too.

Same as long distance call.

So faxing with my fax machine through my land line costs me long distance charges if I need to dial a one? I want to clarify just in case my first post was misunderstood.

A fax call usually takes less than a minute.

There are some free online fax services.

check out link4pc.com/metrofax

I don't remember if there is a limit of the number you can send.

Yes, unless you are dialing a toll free number such as a 1-800, 1-866 or 1-877 number.

Some calling plans bill by the second (we have one that does).

Duh

Says MetroFax is being redisigned, since June 2005...the sign up is just to be informed of when their through so that it can be used.
