There are Tier 1 USA carriers that will terminate 1/1 on an ICB basis. Many of the resellers of USA Tier 1's will bill USA termination in 1/1 on special request, especially if you're buying international from them. And of course, if you have a volume of minutes. For those who claim that when you are offered 1/1 billing for USA or international termination that you are getting a substandard route, well keep on buying in 30/6!

Well unless you are talking to TIER 1 Carriers (AT&T, Verizon, Level3, MCI) you are talking to middle men, who may promise 1/1 but would give a real hard time on ASRs. Also as you may see, its all mathematics 30/6 and they can route you through different carriers (mebbe sometimes even on premium routes, coz their math allow them to do so.) Again, the good ol saying is still true - "You get wat you pay for !!"
