TracFone's SafeLink Service Now Available in Massachusetts

Feb 5, 2009, 10:35 AM by Eric M. Zeman

Today TracFone announced that its SafeLink service is now available to the low-income households in the state of Massachusetts. SafeLink is a free cell phone service that provides a free cell phone, free access to 911 emergency services and 80 minutes of airtime per month to qualifying households for a period of one year. The phone and service include voicemail, text, call waiting, international calling to over 60 destinations and caller ID. The program is funded by the Universal Service Fund through contributions made by telecommunications companies and collections of the Universal Service Charge billed to cell phone users. The idea is to provide basic telephony and emergency services to those who may otherwise be unable to afford it.
