We had our first Videotron phone line
installed in June 1993, and initially took no notice of the free local calls offer as we
didn't know anyone with Videotron lines. Then Videotron's customer base began expanding
rapidly and more and more people had Videotron lines so that we could take advantage of
these calls.
When we purchased a modem in 1996 we had a second line installed for the
express purpose of using free local calls to access the Internet. Currently, I use it quite
heavily, and have made many contacts on it. It has proved invaluable for research purposes,
but this takes time and could not be done as thoroughly if free local calls were removed because
of the constant worry of a huge phone bill.
I would recommend that every disgusted
Videotron customer call up CWC on 0181 244 1111, demanding free calls - if enough people did
so they would have to take some notice.
