Long Distance Service



Kandiyohi Power Cooperative is offering access to long distance service through Global Crossing. This long distance service is one of the lowest-cost long distance services available.

In addition, you can have your own personal family 800 number to receive calls from family members or acquaintances. There are no minimums, no fees, no long-term agreements. Have a student going away to college this fall? Give them your personal family 800 number and avoid expensive collect calls, credit cards and limited calling cards!

Frequently Asked Questions

For your home or business this long distance plan can save you money. Some of the questions you might have:

Are there any codes to dial?
No, the change will be totally transparent; your local telephone company will merely redirect your long distance calls.

Is there a monthly fee or minimum?
Absolutely not! You pay only for the minutes you use, billed in six- second increments.

Does it matter what time of day or day of the week that I call?
No, the same rate applies 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year.

Is this an introductory rate that will go up after we sign up?
No! This is not our intention.

How can it be so inexpensive?
This is a wholesale program that we can make available through our business associations. You'll see no expensive national TV ads or celebrity spokespersons!

Can a non-KPC member take advantage of this plan?
Yes, this plan is available to any residence or business applying through KPC.

Is there a charge to switch?
There is no fee to enroll in the plan, however, your local telephone company may charge a one-time service order fee to reroute your long distance calls. This one-time fee commonly ranges from $5 - $10.

How do I switch to this low rate plan?
You must sign an application form, printed in this paper or you can pick one up at the front desk at the Kandiyohi Power Cooperative. If your application is approved, we will notify your local phone company to switch your long distance call to the Global Crossing network. If you have a block on your carrier choice to prevent "slamming" you must call your phone company and ask them to remove the block. After your long distance carrier has been switched, you may want to call your old carrier and make sure they remove your account from their system to avoid any further billings.
