Free long distance from Sun Media

Toronto1Suncall is telling us that long distance is over. As of Feb. 7, for a low monthly cost of $3.95 per month, Ontario residents who can call Toronto1Suncall's access numbers without incurring long distance charges will then be able to call anywhere in Canada without worrying about per-minute charges. Toronto 1, the Toronto Sun and Waterloo-based Worldline all banded together to offer this service.

Once registered, the customer calls a third party access number that will connect them to the desired number after hearing a five-second greeting from a sponsor. Last month, when the service was Ontario exclusive, over 700,000 calls were made using the Voice over the Internet Protocol (VOIP) technology. Last August, the Toronto Sun launched a similar service that provided free long distance for calls made within Ontario.
