[Modus] OT - National Wholesale Dial

[Cary Fitch]

Lest I appear totally incohherent, let me clean up my edits...   The "Carrier" shouldn't have to check with the "Telco".   The Telco should follow the rating designated in the Carrier.    The Telco isn't the ultimate authority.  The FCC is.   In these cases it is often the Telco that has an issue   The FCC ruling on Moday regarding Wireline/Wireless number porting makes this unmistakeably clear.   Just to keep things in perspective.   :-)   Cary   ----- Original Message ----- From: Cary Fitch To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, November 12, 2003 2:00 PM Subject: [Modus] OT - National Wholesale Dial The "Carrier" shouldn't have to check the "Telco".   The Telco should follow the rating designated in by the Carrier.    The Telco isn't the ultimate authority.  The FCC is.   Just to keep things in perspective.   :-)   Cary ----- Original Message ----- From: Bill Rakowitz To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, November 12, 2003 11:02 AM Subject: [Modus] OT - National Wholesale Dial     >>> When the local telco says it's local then bills it out as long distance,             >>> it's pretty clear that the local telco has an issue.   This would be true.    However, we have had many occurrences of the carrier presenting these numbers as �local�  to the end user without ever checking with the telco (when indeed they were not local calls).   I speak from both sides of the issue   (telco/isp)  J   In these cases, it�s pretty clear that the carrier has an issue.   <just to keep things in perspective>   Bill
