LOS ANGELES, CA -- November 03, 2006 -- Rapid Link, Incorporated (OTCBB: RPID), a leading provider of Internet Phone services to niche markets, announced that on October 31, 2006, David Hess submitted his resignation as President of the Company effective immediately. Mr. Hess remains on the Company's Board of Directors to further serve the Company in that capacity.

Mr. Hess leaves the Company to pursue other goals after sixteen months' tenure, during which the Company experienced over 100% in revenue growth. Mr. Hess was integral in orchestrating the successful acquisitions of Integrated Communications, Inc. and Telenational Communications, Inc.

"We wish David the best in his future endeavors," said John Jenkins, Chairman and CEO of Rapid Link. "David came to Rapid Link with one primary objective, which was to head up the turnaround effort that culminated in the successful acquisition of Telenational Communications, Inc. in May 2006. As evidenced in our recent quarterly report, it is clear that David achieved, and indeed exceeded, the goals he set out to attain."

"As I move on to new opportunities, I am very confident of Rapid Link's future as a result of the Company's recent performance, the strength of the management team and the fact that they are well positioned for the future. My support for the Company will continue at a Board level going forward," commented Mr. Hess.

The Company named Christopher J. Canfield to serve as President of Rapid Link in addition to his duties as Chief Financial Officer. "Chris is the natural choice to serve as President for our Company. He had served as President of Telenational for over five years prior to joining us as our CFO. With most of the integration of Rapid Link and Telenational completed, Chris can now focus on growing our business and bringing the combined entity to greater profitability in the near future," cited Mr. Jenkins.
