Because the rates and billing systems are totally different. They are phasing out the billing system that was used for CDP. In order to "swap" them out, they would have to re-enter their service into a new system, and then change their level of service. Basically, CDP charged similar to a land line. You paid for a long distance provider separate, you got charged the per call fee on calls that were outside a certain distance (I forget what they were called, but say for example you lived in Orlando, and you wanted to call St. Cloud, it's not long distance, just 25 cent per call, but CDV does not charge that, because it's unlimited long distance AND local). The calling features are included in CDV, whereas you paid separate charges for each calling service in CDP. Totally different services altogether... -- SIPPhone/Gizmo # 17476200648 / PIMPNET Chatline / Ran by Asterisk & Slackware 10.1. |
