New England Municipal Telephone Associates (NEMTA)Local And Long Distance Plans
…brought to you by Sterling Municipal Light Department

Your local Sterling Municipal Light Department is happy to supply you with very reasonably priced energy. We are also able to offer you local and long distance telephone services as well.

For the past several years, we have partnered with New England Municipal Telephone Associates (NEMTA) who can offer you a better plan than the larger telephone companies can. NEMTA is a local and long distance provider who can offer you 10% off of almost any Verizon plan. And, they can help you to determine which plan is best for you. All we are asking is that you compare and see if the cost-savings can work for you. Take a look at one example below:

	NEMTA/SMLD SAMPLE PLAN	“THEIR” PACKAGE	YOUR SAVINGS

LOCAL PACKAGE – Unlimited local calling. Check your local phone book for what is considered your local area. Includes 3 features such as: call waiting, caller ID and 3-way calling.	$24.26	$26.95	$2.69

REGIONAL - Outside of your local area but inside eastern MA. This example is based upon 100 minutes.	$0.05 x 100 minutes = $5.00	$0.07 x 100 minutes = $7.00	$2.00

LONG DISTANCE - State-to-state.	$0.045 x 100 minutes =$4.50	$0.05 x 100 minutes =$5.00	$0.50
	Monthly fee is waived	Monthly fee = $2.00	$2.00
TOTAL	$33.76	$40.95	$7.19

If saving $7.19 (or better) on each monthly phone bill is something that you are interested in, please contact the SMLD at 978-422-8267 for more information. Just think of what your yearly savings would be!

Additional benefits include:

*     There is no fee to switch to NEMTA.
*     For every $10.00 of long distance usage that you spend on your NEMTA bill, within the
      next quarter your NEMTA bill will be given a tele-power dividend credit of $1.00.
*     Minimum long distance fee is waived (if long distance usage is over $2.00).
*     Personalized, quality customer service when you need it.
*     Other services such as voicemail are available at an additional cost. Please ask for
      more details.
*     The rate for domestic calling cards anywhere in the US and Canada is $0.10 a minute.
