Err...
Not the case at all.
When you call from {say} Inside the Beltway to The Valley, the
money gets split. Of that {say} 10c/min, See&Pee err now Verizontal
gets 3c, Specific Hell gets 3c, and the IXC gets all that is rest.
If you have "bypass" on your end, See&Pee gets 0c/min.
On my personal attorney's office, we went to a PRI from Focal and
the combined local/LD went from $1500/month to ~<$700.00. It's
even less /min if they happen to call another Focal customer.
A PRI has smarter signalling that old CT1 but the principle is
the same. (But note a PRI has far lower ""taxes"" than the CT1.)
I'm no salesman, but if you can put a package together as we did,
showing a ~16-19month payout on the whole new phone system; it's
like giving away seats to The Producers.
