Dont get ripped off by your cell phone provider!

A recent FCC study confirmed that mobile device billing errors are common, with errors as high as $8,553 in a given month. For Corporate America, rampant use of wireless devices has created a serious cost-control nightmare.

For organizations with 50 or more cell phones, smart phones, iPads, or other wireless devices, we have a Wireless Consultant who will review 3 months of your invoices at no charge and indicate what savings you can recover.

Automated Comcast Quotes Now Available

With Comcast now offering quality business services, Comcast results are now included in our automated quote system results. This is one more step to help organizations be able to explore the Telecom options available at their location(s).

Unlike many of the services that we offer, Comcast pricing and promotions are standard around the country. Thus, our automated system gives our agents an easy way of pricing all Comcast options. In fact, when appropriate, we can automatically print the paperwork required to place an order.

An organization can run our automated quote system and find, in real time in most cases, the availability and pricing of data and voice carrier services like Internet Access, voice T1s, and PRIs from over 30 carriers. Additional carrier products and some promotional offerings that are not yet in the automated system can quickly be found by our consultants via prompts from the automated system.
