Pretty cool way to give back to their members - call long distance friends and family, or phone bank without penalty, to GOTV!

Just thought I'd share...

Free calls on Election Day? What's this all about?
Yes, you heard us right. All outgoing, domestic calls on CREDO Mobile and CREDO Long Distance will be free this coming election day, November 4th, during the hours that polls are open in your state (based on your billing address).

Why are you doing this?
A big part of CREDO's socially-responsible mission is to promote civic engagement - democracy is not a spectator sport, and there's a lot at stake this November 4th. So we want you to call your friends and relatives on Election Day with a reminder to get out and vote—and we're making it easier by making the calls free for you. Voting is everyone's civic responsibility, and we'll have a much better democracy if more people get to the polls and vote.

Will my text messages be free too?
Text messages are not included in this program. However, texting your friends is in fact an easy and effective way to get them out to vote. So we strongly encourage you to use our new online tool – Text Out the Vote, on the web at http://txtoutthevote.org – where you can set up text messages now that will go out to your friends on Nov. 4th and remind them to vote.

How will this work? What will I see on my bill?
Your outgoing CREDO Mobile calls on election day during your state's polling hours will be free. They won't count towards your anytime minutes limit, or contribute to overage if you go above that limit during peak hours. For CREDO Long Distance calls, we'll simply credit your account after election day to cancel out charges for long distance calls you made on election day.
