About 450Tel

Telecommunications is a complicated and ever-changing industry, full of new fangled technologies, confusing contracts, hidden fees, complex rate plans, unsympathetic customer service departments and the list goes on. 450TeL Communications Inc. is in the business of changing that. The company’s beginning was a coming together of veterans in the industry: marketing specialists, technical experts, operations managers, all of them frustrated with the status quo and looking to provide customers with a new and friendly experience.

After several meetings and much brainstorming, the founders decided on a model: the company would offer fifty cent bundles to customers, providing a fixed number of long distance minutes 4 50¢, maximizing value for price-conscious customers all the while providing superior customer service and doing away with tricky additional fees and contracts. Early in 2005, 450TeL Communications Inc. was born.
