Tim,

But who exactly is dropping the call? The first ILEC who gets control
of the call? A Level3 type company?

I do not think any of my switches, broadsoft, asterisk, etc... would
treat it any differently then all the other numbers that go through it.

Just curious who is actually enforcing the special service code.
