Freeway + Me = No More LD Phone Bills

by Najusa , Jun 03 '00
Pros: Free Long Distance
Cons: (small) Have to listen to short adds
Free long distance? Too good to be true, right? I mean, surely there's got to be some huge catch to this, wouldn't you say?

Well, I would have and I DID until I tried it for myself. I am a true skeptic and assume the worst about most of...

Saying Bye! Bye! To FREE long distance

by cntaur5, Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 100, Feb 17 '01
Pros: It was nice while it lasted.
Cons: FreeWay service has been discontinued effective Wednesday, February 14, 2001.
Wow, after 84 opinions, it appears this 85th one may be the last. Broadpoint.com boast that it’s America’s first FREE long distance service. Simply go to the Broadpoint.com web site, which presents promotional events, relatively easy membership sign...

Free Calls: worth the hassle?

by marrone , Apr 05 '00
Pros: Free LD calls
Cons: Sponsor signup required, can't store unused minutes
The answer is a definite "It depends".

I was lucky enough to have enrolled before the service required you to buy something from a sponsor, so I didn't have to go through all that nonsense. My opinion on that is to buy it if you...

It true, Free long distance

by mray , May 02 '00
Pros: Free and easy
Cons: no 2nd choice if no one's home
I can't remember how I learned about freeway long distance but somehow I signed up and have been using the company for probably a year now.

You get 2 hours of long distance free per month and you can have 2 accounts per household so that's...

It actually works

by counsel Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Dec 13 '99
Pros: Free long distance!
Cons: Listen to ads! Minutes don't accumulate for future calls!
There is something about hearing the words "free long distance" which raises my screens and starts me wondering which organs I'll be donating to obtain these wonderful services.

I ought not to have to say this, but there are some...

FREEWAY IS WAY COOL!!!

by deeljea , Apr 03 '00
Pros: Totally free, easy to use, saves you money
Cons: Unused accumulated time not saved once you hang up
If you want to save money on your long distance bill, you should consider becoming a freeway member. This is what I did about a year ago. I have relatives scattered throughout the U.S. and my phone bill was becoming unbearable, until I signed up with...

Freeway becoming a toll road?

by jcgrow , Jun 13 '00
Pros: Free for first wave customers
Cons: Free with a catch for new customers
Freeway, offered by broadpoint.com, is a free long distance service that allows the user to phone others regardless of distance in return for listening to 15-second advertisements. For every advertisement listened to, the user gets to make 2 minutes of...

Free Long Distance is a Real Money Saver

by anniebob , Feb 13 '00
Pros: It really is free -- no hidden fees
Cons: Can be inconvenient
I've been a Freeway member for about a year now. Since Freeway doles out the free long distance in two-minute increments for each 10-15 second ad that you listen to, it's not practical for all of my long distance calls, but my best friend lives a few...

The Free Way

by carolah , Aug 24 '00
Pros: free reliable long distance phone calling, no internet connection required except to sign up for the service
Cons: must listen to many ads for longer calls, limit of 2 hours per month
I signed up for Freeway in their initial launch over a year ago. I was skeptical as to if this service would really work, and it does! They do require some personal information at signup (your name, address, email address, and your interests)....

Freeway is OK!

by nikita22 , Sep 29 '00
Pros: Easy to earn Long Distance Minutes!
Cons: Some of the ads are very repetitive and annoying
When I first heard about Freeway I was a tad skeptical. Like all the other "long distance" companies on the web, I figured this would be another "We want to change your long distance service and give you long distance for .002cents a...

Freeway-It's worth it to me! Is it worth it to you?

by glomarrone Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 200, Dec 05 '00
Pros: absolutely free long distance up to 2 hrs. monthly
Cons: must buy from a sponsor now to be accepted, time consuming
My son, Mike, introduced me about this program well over two years ago. I contacted Freeway on the computer & waited for their return e-mail. It took over 3 months for them to get back to me. By that time I had forgotten all about my request....

Welcome to Freeway

by Kellyann71 , Mar 31 '00
Pros: Free long distance
Cons: Adds a few minutes to a call.
I am a huge fan of the Freeway program. I will admit to being a bit skeptical about it when a friend suggested I enroll in it. I was new to the computer and a little leary.
I have now been a Freeway subscriber for almost 2 years. I never have a...

No BS (Bull Site)!

by Chuck_Hansen , Dec 16 '99
Pros: Free phone calls, easy to use, place calls from anywhere
Cons: No minute rollovers, requires signup with a sponsor
In a world of hype, occasionally you run across some folks who tell it to you straight. Freeway does just that, ironically by giving you free long distance for listening to other folks' hype.

The deal is straightforward: Listen to an ad...
