iSalvage Merges the Internet With Phone Support to Create 'Dial iSalvage'; New Service is Response to Customer Requests for More Access OptionsNEW YORK, Oct. 11 iSalvage, an Internet-based procurement network for recycled and remanufactured automotive parts, today announced the launch of its new "Dial iSalvage" phone-based part locating service. With one call to 877-645-PART (7278), registered iSalvage users can leverage the power of the Internet and iSalvage's robust up-to-date inventory of recycled parts even when they are not on the Internet. As part of the "Dial iSalvage" service offering, registered users can also fax search requests to a new toll free number. This service is particularly helpful for insurance adjustors who are on the road and need recycled parts information fast to fulfill claims estimates. "With millions of parts in our database from top automotive recyclers all over the country, we have a tremendous asset which helps parts buyers and insurance companies quickly find the recycled parts they need at a competitive price," said Gary Linhart, president and COO of iSalvage. "While the Internet offers one way to search for parts, our customers have told us that when it's not convenient or possible to logon, they still want access to our valuable service and to our knowledgeable customer service team. Our new phone and fax service is a direct response to this request, and reinforces our commitment to providing superior customer service." "Dial iSalvage" allows users to call or fax iSalvage customer service toll-free with a search request. iSalvage then conducts a real-time Internet parts search and emails or faxes the search results back to the user. iSalvage can also track and manage searches and search results based on individuals, claims, or groups, which is particularly useful for insurance companies. iSalvage's "Dial iSalvage" phone and fax service is available to commercial automotive parts buyers and insurance employees nationwide. The service is free to join and is free to use for an introductory period through January 1, 2001. "As iSalvage continues to enhance its service offerings, we are also continually focusing on methods to enhance our Web site capabilities," said Linhart. "We have just redesigned our homepage to enhance the user Interface, and we have improved the part search capabilities to incorporate the Automotive Recycling Association standards, which makes finding just the right part faster and easier than ever."
