The survey of telephone companies

Everybody should realize that a minute consists of sixty seconds. I was surprised to know that for some prepaid calling card providers one minute - just 36 seconds. IDT in juristic acts against a number of their opponents said that it is difficult to vie on a level playing field when a minute is not one minute. Last year IDT/UTA (Union Telecard Alliance) began a lawsuit against several corporations-providers of prepaid phone cards alleging erroneous advertising and deceptive commerce operations.

According to IDT press research, some of their competitors just give 60 percent of the declared minutes to the consumer. In November 2007 Total Call International, Inc. and IDT/UTA have reached a complete resolution of the suit brought by IDT Telecom, Inc. and Union Telecard Alliance, LLC versus Total Call. This brings to four the amount of defendant groups that have resolved the litigation commenced by IDT/UTA before, this year. Today there is a list of other defendants includes about six companies and some of them are: Epana Networks Inc., Dollar Phone Corp., etc.. That pending suit is being on approval in the federal court in Newark, New Jersey. To make everybody know the new telephone service conditions and payment mode, one of the companies announced the advertising notice on their website. The new method permits every cutomer to determine the length of the minute that befits him the best, and the system would keep back minutes form the account and the consumer will have an ability to check exactly how many units were deducted and how many are left. Moreover, they mentioned that it is rule on all prepaid calling cards systems. I didn't believe that it was true. But now when I found IDT press releases, I realize that they are probably right.

If you can primitively count, that you should estimate how many minutes you will have on the balance buying an international phone card. The proportion is 100 minutes by only $1! You have to choose properly the cards to make sure you're getting what you pay for. Customers would be given the units, they forfeited during the unjust actions, as a bonus. IDT/UTA hopes that if all the defendants assent with introduction of new standards, that can be better for them, as the arm of law will try them more softly. They should endorse the proposed standards to make the rivalry between the telephone card facility corporations truly fair and just. They would try to create the systems for testing the capability of prepaid calling cards to give the quantity of minutes prescribed for particular destinations. The contracting parties agreed to provide the effective monitoring system open for everyone that would like to control the actions.
