"This site has been created with
a view to bringing to the members the Indian Students Association,
the most reliable phone cards at the lowest possible rates.
We endeavor to obtain discounts from wholesellers and telecom companies
and pass them on to you.
One of our important objectives is to beware you of the fine print and
hidden charges often associated with phone cards.
It is a sad reality that frauds are rampant in the market for
telecom services. In fact, it appears that the bigger the company,
the more insidious the fraud - AT&T, MCI, Sprint, all are
involved to some degree of the other. Misrepresentation and
under-representation of facts, pricing scams - advertising
grossly discounted rates and not honoring it - AT&T has been
convicted of it, slamming (illegally taking
over victim's phone services without permission - MCI does
this to someone every fifteen minutes), coercion through obnoxious
telemarketing - there are many tricks up their sleeve.
Most people suspect something is wrong but they don't have the
time to see through it. Oftentimes, they realize only after having
burnt their fingers...
We have compiled a detailed dossier on the different kinds
of frauds prevalent at the moment. Please check them out in the frauds
section. It is expected that this section will help the
students avoid falling prey to them."
