ACA CampCard 2001 vs. the Competition - American Camping Association services include a multi-featured phone card - Brief Article

Camping Magazine, March, 2001

The official CampCard of the ACA offers the most reliable phone time and, unlike most of the competition, our phone card includes all of the following, without any hassles.

* No connection fees

* Never any set-up charges

* All telecommunications taxes

* 24/7 customer service

* Can be used from any touch-tone phone in the United States

* Completely rechargeable with any major credit card

The phone card business is very competitive. As a result, there are a lot of misleading advertisements. An example of this is a promotion that claims to have a rate of $0.10 per minute, while not advertising the fact that there is an additional $1.00 per minute surcharge on the first three minutes of each call placed. Another misleading advertisement might state that there is a rate of $0.05 per minute, but what they omit from this statement is that there are also telecommunications taxes that will be debited from the card in addition to the rate per minute deduction.

The official CampCard of the ACA charges $0.17 per minute with no connection fees or set-up charges. Camp begins soon. Order the ACA CampCard by calling 800-981-5214.
