LOS ANGELES, Sept. 20, 2004 (PRIMEZONE) -- FoneFriend, Inc. (OTCBB:FFRD) is pleased to announce that the Company's subscriber base for Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) service grew last week to 72,714 customers. FoneFriend President, Robin Glanzl, said, "Through our marketing partner, Infinicom, we are experiencing exceptionally strong levels of demand for VoIP service from new customers to the network as shown by recent customer acquisitions. We anticipate significant future growth levels as more people become aware of our low cost $15 a month calling plan as a very real cost-cutting alternative to their traditional phone company service. The Infinicom network architecture is proving to be both robust and high quality in terms of our ability to rapidly grow a large revenue base."
Karin Blevins, VP Carrier Networks for Infinicom said, "The activation of FoneFriend's customers occurred during Saturday September 18. In all, 12,714 new subscribers were activated with 11,950 subscribers using the service that same day. Last Saturday our network handled over 360,000 calls for FoneFriend subscribers."
