Hello folks:
I'm very sad to say that DialFree appears to be just another fly-by-night
outfit. They get your credit card number and they collect other personal
information about you and then they are gone.
I haven't received any of their survey forms in a couple of months.
If you want to know the last I've heard from them, then please see
the forwarded message appended below. The message is most ambiguous
and contradictory as to whether they are really offering anything for
free.

Dear DialFree Members,
As you may or may not know, Rhinopoint is no longer in business. They
will no longer provide surveys in exchange for free Internet service.
However, we've found a solution we think you'll appreciate!
We have entered into an agreement with WorldShare.net, the #1-rated Free
Internet Service Provider, to provide you with premium free Internet
access. You'll receive 5 e-mail accounts, 20 mb of web space, shopping,

of Web pages and bringing you only the information you want to see and
delivering targeted messages to you. By using the ShareBar, you'll

to my own personal information]
In addition to this excellent offer from our friends at WorldShare we
will continue to seek out new and innovative ways to provide free
service.
We are actively looking for a new survey provider at this time and will
be providing advertising based access in the near future. Until we are
able to provide these services reliably we will be lowering our current
monthly fee to $15.50. We will continue to provide 24 Hour Toll free
technical support to those of you who stay on and will be providing
additional email accounts and web space.
We look forward to working with WorldShare to provide you with the
service that you need.
