My, how embarrassing. I of course meant that as a personal message to
Don. But if anyone else knows the answer, I'm interested! lol

Hey Don,
How are you? I may be heading your way in the next month or so. Have
to meet with a guy in Eden Prairie, and stop off at my
brother/sisterm-in-law's as well.
Got a question for you - with TBCT, who pays for the call once it is
transferred? Still me as the owner of the trunk?
Lets say I take a call that was dialled locally (caller believes this
is "free"), and I do a TBCT to an international destination, and they
stay on the line for ten minutes. Who gets the bill?
Cheers,
j

This depends on what you mean by “not involving the service provider.”
If you are literally forwarding calls that come in on the PRI back
out on the PRI, the most efficient way is with Two B-Channel Transfer
(TBCT). Check it out in the wiki.
You need to make sure your carrier supports the feature.
When you want to do a “transfer,” you have an incoming call alerting
or answered, you initiate an outgoing call (using the originating
ANI). You initiate the TBCT and the CARRIER completes the transfer,
disconnecting both of your B channels. The carrier will later notify
you when the transferred call is done, but I don’t think Asterisk
handles this directly.
Note that at least one of the calls must be answered when you
initiate the transfer. If you are doing “unattended” transfer, you
will, typically, leave the incoming call alerting until the outbound
call answers, then complete the transfer. An “attended” transfer
would generally answer the incoming call, play a message, do some IVR
doodling, or chat with an agent then initiate the transfer.
Have fun

Thanks AJ and David,
We were actually using GSM gateways by setting busy forward number on
the SIMs and just giving busy signal on every incoming call, telco
took care of the forwarding and the line was free within seconds. Now
we need to scale up the setup but GSM gateways a very very expensive
if we want to scale upto a 1000 DIDs, which means thousand SIMs and a
gateway/gateways big enough.

It depends who your service provider is!
Any PRI card can send the commands down the D-channel to set any
caller ID you
like, but it's still up to the telco whether or not they will honour your
request. I know the hard way that BT will only let you identify with
a number
you're entitled to use.
Also, remember if you have a call coming in on a PRI line and going
out on
another PRI line, that's eating two of your thirty lines .....
