(Apparently, unfortunately, cost $6.75 to "switch" from "non-plan" to *NO* LD plan?)
Those having Verizon's no monthly fee LD plan - Verizon's 50¢ / minute "non-plan" LD plan - that plan's price has been increased from $0 to $2 / month - this new "shortfall" minimum fee.
For those who have *NO* ability to make direct dial LD calls via Verizon (ie cannot make "LD" calls by dialing "1"), there is no fee, as I read the article.
In other words, Verizon's LD plans are now:
1) Nothing - cannot dial 1 - *must* use "local" access w/OneSuite or RNK or 10-10(?) or ...
2) $2 minimum with 50¢ / minute fee
3) all the other LD plans (which all have a monthly fee)
OR, just select another LD company - pay their fees - nothing to Verizon.
I wanted to go for Verizon's "non-plan" LD plan as a backup, but at 50¢ / minute, the hell with that. I'll find another way, if I really have to - "10-10", if absolutely necessary.

The way I read it is Verizon will block all LD for you for $6.75 a month. IE Recurring charge... and it means even in an emergency you couldn't call LD at all.
IE not $6.75 to activate LD block but $6.75 a month to maintain the block.
