[cisco-voip] Toll Bypass

[Jason Aarons (US)]

I would ask you telco provider for a listing.  The front of the phone
book doesn't always tell you if it's a local or long distance
(intralata) call and the rate you will incur.

 

For example Charlotte, NC has 10-digit dialing.  904-556-6229 is free
from downtown charlotte, but 904-736-8788 (Lincoln County Airport) is
intra-lata with AT&T trunk at twenty cents a minute, but free with Time
Warner Telecom trunk.  You wouldn't know this unless you contacted your
carrier.  I know Time Warner Telcom has a listing of NPA-XXXs they
provide me at the time free of charge.  My Time Warner Telecom account
manager faxed it over.

 

Also companies like ISI gather this from tariff tables the carriers have
to provide to Public Utility Commissions by law. However they charge for
this information in the form of monthly subscription.

 

I wouldn't call this toll bypass but TEHO (Tail End Hop Off).

Hello listers,

 

If I am setting up Toll Bypass, how can I easily determine which
prefixes are not long distance from my calling area?  It seems that if I
incorrectly pass the "1" to the Telco, I'll get a recording that the
number isn't long distance and that I need to re-dial it.

 

I wish the Telco would just pass the number and drop the 1 without
telling me...

 

Regards,

Corbett.
