Bell Atlantic cuts international calling rates by 40 percent
Keeping in touch with far-away
friends and loved ones is now a lot
more affordable for Bell Atlantic
customers. The company an-
nounced recently that Bell At-
lantic's International Savings Plan
will reduce Bell Atlantic's already
low international calling rates by
40 percent to the 33 most often-
called countries.
"New York is the gateway to
world, making international call-
ing a regular occurrence for many
of our long-distance customers,"
said Maura Breen, president and
chief executive offer of Bell At-
lantic Communications Inc., the
business unit that provides resi-
dential long distance.
'qe new plan ensures Bell At-
lantic's customers get the most
competitive rates in the industry -
whether they are calling across the
country or around the world," said
Sreen.
The plan offers amazingly low
rates for direct-dialed long dis-
tance calls, including 10 cents a
minute to the United Kingdom
and 15 cents a minute to France.
Calls to Japan are as low as 16
cents per minute.
"We are proud to serve one of
the most diverse consumer bases
in the country," Breen said. "Since
entering the long-distance market
in January, we have received in-
credible feedback from our inter-
national and ethnic customer base.
Our new International Savings
Plan delivers on what internation-
al callers are looking for in a long-
distance company."
All new customers signing up
for the International Savings Plan
receive 30 free minutes of long-
distance calls each month for the
first three months. The free min-

The new plan can be added to

less plan, or the Best Times plan.
The International Savings Plan
includes a monthly fee of $3. To
commemorate the new plan, Bell
Atlantic will waive the service's
$3 monthly charge for nine
months for all existing customers.
The new international rates be-
came effective March 31.
"Bell Atlantie's International
Savings Plan is another example
of our commitment to surprise-
free long distance," Breen said.
"Many of the other long distance
'companies play hide and seek
when it comes to charging cus-
tomers for international calls -
promoting one price but deliver-
ing a much different bill at the end
of the month. At Bell Atlantic, you
get up-front pricing and competi-
tive rates, all delivered with pre-
mier service - I guarantee it."
