Cleartel communications is no longer in business. They were bought last year by Birch Communications. If you go to Cleartel’s old phone service website, there is a page up that says Birch will continue to provide service for Cleartel customers, but since they are no longer paying commissions to agents who brought the customers to Cleartel in the first place, if you’re an old Cleartel customer, you should leave their service on principal.

Agents work hard to find the best-cheapest phone service for their customers, and when those companies quit paying their agents, or don’t pay the agents that go with the customers that they aquire through consolidation with other phone companies, I think it’s crooked. They know they’re stealing from the very people who brought the customer to the table in the first place, which makes them a company that you can’t trust to work with in the future.
