NEW YORK, Nov. 8 /PRNewswire/ -- Verizon customers in nine East Coast

cable.

long-distance calling with the three most popular calling features -  
Home
Voice Mail, Call Waiting and Caller ID - for as little as $34.95 a  
month.
Verizon Freedom Value, offering any-distance domestic calling but no  
calling
features, starts at $29.95 in some markets and is the company's  
lowest-priced
any-distance calling plan.


The new plans are available starting today in New York, New Jersey,
Pennsylvania, Maryland, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Delaware,  
Virginia and
Washington, D.C.  The Freedom Value and Freedom Essentials plans were
introduced last month in Florida, California and Texas and have  
proven very
popular, bringing new long-distance customers to Verizon and  
promoting sales
of service packages that include Verizon Online DSL and DIRECTV all- 
digital
entertainment services.


With the new calling plans, customers can have unlimited calling at as
little as $29.95 and entry-level DSL at up to768 megabits per second  
(Mbps)
downstream at $14.95 for a combined cost as low as $44.90.  DIRECTV  
service
from Verizon can be added for a total of as little as $84.89 per month.
