You can call it from any phone and get free directory assistance (Business, Government, or Residential). The best part: you actually get to speak with a real person immediately, instead of some silly machine. The other great thing I like about the service is that they also connect the call for free so I don’t have to write the number down. I don’t think you can get directions but I usually just ask the place once my calls is connected anyway…….getting 50+ text messages for directions is CRAZY!!!! It is much easier to simply speak with a human…… Check out the video at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lLvUGXL4oCY For callers that have used the se800-411-SAVE is back and better than rvice in the past like myself…For those of you trying to find the best free DA service which is live operator supported.

I've had trouble finding numbers with 411save and, the recently demised or transformed, should I say, 411metro. While their functionality has more or less the same, their databases seemed to somewhat lacking compared to Free411. While I would agree that they're all up and coming services, of the free directory assistance services, free411 returned a number for every attempt i've made. I can't say the same for the others. If you'd like to compare for yourself, free411's number is 1-800-free411. Have you tried Free411?
