I know I'm splitting hairs here, but this actually becomes an issue at every major holiday, and then it drives calls from customers disputing their bills a few weeks later.
Calls on Memorial Day are not free.
They are rated as off-peak.
Off-peak means the same thing as night and weekend minutes.

well put Bear. I always call 611 on holidays to see if I will be using my offpeak minutes, but for those that dont have unlimited off peak minutes could be easily confused. I know some companies make that part of the plan when they sell the plans, I think us cellular does that, you get unlimited night, weekend, and holiday minutes, not sure, but I think they do that. I hope verizon keeps doing it and eventually just makes it part of the plans.
