HONGKONG Telecom CSL has announced new prices on its SUREFAX 100 Auto Retry service that will enable customers to send faxes to the US for less than the cost of a standard IDD call.

The new charges apply to any destination in the continental US, with the exception of Alaska. They follow a similar reduction six weeks ago which cut SUREFAX Auto Retry charges to six European countries, including Britain, Germany, France, Switzerland, The Netherlands and Italy.
