Telephones can be installed easily and quickly for a set charge. You can either rent a telephone from the phone company or you may purchase your own equipment. Most drugstores and hardware stores sell telephones at various prices. You will be charged a basic monthly rate which includes an unlimited number of local calls. Calls made outside of your local area will be charged to your monthly bill.
Numerous companies offer long distance services.
Contact these companies and compare their services and prices to determine which company best meets your needs. Their numbers can be found in the yellow pages of your telephone directory under Telephone Companies . When your telephone is installed, you will receive a telephone directory which alphabetically lists the names and addresses of people with phones. It is worthwhile to study the directory since it contains a great deal of information about using the telephone, special services that are available, telephone rates, etc. The telephone directory has information on Public Services, Government Offices, Public Schools, transit systems, zip codes, recreation, etc, in the Pullman area.
