What is a monthly minimum requirement?
This refers to the least amount of total monthly charges that a specific long distance plan requires. Example: If a specific long distance plan has a monthly minimum of $20 but only $15 worth of calls are made that month, that customer will still be charged $20. Any total under the monthly minimum is rounded up to meet that monthly minimum. Some long distance plans have monthly minimums while others do not. Be sure to thoroughly read over the terms and conditions of any long distance plan before signing up.
