"We are extremely pleased to offer new long distance customers free Internet access.

GTC wants to show its long distance customers that they have signed up for a valuable service and that we appreciate their business," stated Paul Sandhu, President and CEO of GTC Telecom.
Sandhu continued, "We have seen the market acceptance of bundling phone with Internet service. Several companies have done this including AOL and have seen great results. In response, we believe GTC is making our offer one of the best available today. Not only are we are offering free Internet service, rather than a discounted rate, but we are combining this with our industry leading long distance rates."
