Buyers Beware! The $19.99 or $39.99 Answering Service!

I always love reading competitor advertisements.
“19.99 Answering Service!”
“39.99 Answering Service!”
“Plans starting at $49!”
Yes, their plans start at $49 dollars, but that’s just for these companies to open your account and agree to answer your phones. You might get 50 minutes at the $49, and then… the overages.
Answering Service Minute Packages:
Websites always tell you, you get 50 minutes for $50 dollars, or something along those lines. “Great! That means I pay 1 dollar per minute, right? “
Wrong. You pay 1 dollar per minute for the first 50 minutes, and when you go over, you’re getting charged for overages. “Oh well, so I went over my minutes. They’re only a dollar per minute. It can’t be that much more money.”
Wrong again. Most answering services charge a higher rate for every minute you go above your minute-package. This can leave you with a doubled, or sometimes, tripled bill! Rather than help your business grow, these answering services seek to leach the money from your increased call volume.
Answering Service Transparency:
That’s not how it should be. With Answering Legal, the more minutes you use, the cheaper the minutes become – which means we become your partner as you grow, not a parasite that feeds better off of your success. Answering Service pricing on a website always requires you to fill out a form to get a quote. You didn’t ask for a quote, you asked for the pricing structure! Answering Legal displays our pricing clear as day on our pricing tab. This is a testament to how up-front we are with our customers.
Don’t get swindled. Call Answering Legal.
