MARITIME TEL & TEL - PROPOSAL TO PROVIDE LOCAL CALLING IN THE EXCHANGES ADJACENT TO A CUSTOMER'S HOME EXCHANGE
|
|
Reference: Tariff Notice 658
|
|
1. The Commission has received an application under Tariff Notice 658 from Maritime Tel & Tel (MT&T), dated 9 May 1997, for approval of tariff revisions, effective 1 October 1997, that would provide customers with expanded local calling to exchanges adjacent to the customer's home exchange.
|
|
2. Under MT&T's proposal, the proposed extension of the local calling areas would be provided to customers at no additional charge and would replace the extended area service guidelines currently used.
|
|
3. MT&T proposes to implement these changes immediately in exchanges equipped with digital switches and in the remaining exchanges coincident with the implementation of the Switching Equipment Modernization program. The company states that both these programs will be completed by the end of 1998.
