B]Fax via the internet ??[/B]

My hubby has asked if you can get FREE internet faxes?

Basically what he is asking is can he fax via the internet for free, not for a trial period but free for as long as he wants?

any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

    I can't help with sending a fax via the internet, but I can receive them. I have an 0871 number and if someone faxes to that number it routes as a PDF to my mail inbox. The service is free to me but the person faxing pays for a non-geographical call, which is about 8p (standard BT rates). The company who allocated me the number gets a percentage of that 8p.

    Can anyone tell me how I can send free faxes over the internet using broadband (Mac running OS X 10.3.9)?

    I started using a free receive fax service a couple of weeks ago the company I chose was called "Faxtastic" allt you need do is recieve your first fax within first 7 days to activate.
    You get your number straight away when registering.
    Then to keep the acount open you must recieve at least one fax within a 90 day period.
    "works a treat"
    You can have a £10 pounds a year acount if you want to occasionaly send a fax but I am not sure how many you can send as I only neede to have a recieve number.
    You can upgrade @ any time.
