Nice to see the name-calling begin. a) I did not say access charges don't exist. Read the email. I said recip is almost gone, and where it exists, it is in the range of 0.05c/minute. (as in, 1/20th of a penny). b) Rural carriers operate by entirely different rules from the rest. You were looking for a CLEC to give you PRIs. By definition, rural carrier *is* an ILEC. Please do not try to confuse issues. c) You wanted a CLEC with recip - talk about clecs who still have recip. Don't bring up rural ILECs' access tariffs. d) Notwithstanding the above, since you made claims to contrary: Access tariff by definition is LD (anything going between rate centers) and is specified in the tariffs. Access tariff may be different for intralata / intrastate / interstate. Reciprocal compensation is by definition local (intra-rate-center), is individually negotiated and specified in ICA. Arguing otherwise is pointless. > No I am not confusing anything, just trying to educate the people that > insist that if they dont know it it doesnt exist. Yes, someone by the name of trixter educating txlink and me. *smirk* Let's hear it. -alex _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Biz mailing list [email protected] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-biz
