| said by battleop  :I'm not really that involved with this part of our VoIP business but I am pretty sure that there are rules in place to prevent the ILecs from charging such fees. Well, they do, or use too. It's the LNP charge. Some use to charge it but I think for the most part, it's hidden now. But since I've HAD VoIP with 2 different providers and went back to good ole high quality trusty POTS, I can say this much. The reason they can GET AWAY WITH IT is because VoIP isn't regulated as a product. So, it will be interesting to see what happens when Sprint or some 3rd party group starts selling VoIP over WIMAX where it pretty much hits a TELCO network from tower to called party. This could be interesting.  |
