The Editor:I am writing this letter to residents of Bienfait, Roche Percee, Hitchcock, Macoun and asking for someone in these communities to check their SaskTel landline phone bill for a charge and then to give me a call. When we moved to Bienfait in 1996 I had an option to pay a fee to SaskTel so we did not get charged long distance to phone Estevan. As my husband and I were both employed in Estevan I agreed. Then, when SaskTel came out with calls within 25 miles radius of certain towns I tried to get this fee removed again with no avail. Now I pay for a bundle each month for Internet and anytime North America extended long distance B for $52.95. On top of that I also pay extended area calling 0-18 miles res $4.20 a month. I just cannot believe I can phone to Florida 24/7 for one monthly charge, but each month I have to pay an additional $4.20 to phone Estevan. Now what I would like is residents from these other towns and Bienfait could you please look at your bills and see if you also pay this 0-18 miles charge, as the lady that I phoned says everyone in my town pays this. So I thought if Bienfait pays, Roche Percee and Macoun and Hitchcock must also pay. Could you please phone and let me know if you are paying. Call Sandy at 306-388-2283. I phoned SaskTel on March 15, 2013 still waiting for call from rural SaskTel. Thank you for your time.Sandra HedstromBienfait
