Brader drives a ViaTalk branded Hummer H2 which serves as a local promotional tool for the company and displays a ‘1 MPG’ state license plate. Other company executives also drive ViaTalk branded vehicles.

All new customers establishing an account with a 24 month prepay term will receive an ExxonMobil gas card good for $20 in free gas with their ViaTalk welcome package while the promotion is in place. The company offers a variety of plans including a VT_Unlimited plan that offers unlimited local and long distance calling to anywhere in the United Stats and Canada for under $16 monthly with the prepay term.

Another company representative stated that the gas card promotion will end at 11:59PM EST on Monday, September 12, 2005.
