Here in NJ, it's the only one of the "Class" services for which there is no monthly charge. There is a per-use charge, which I _think_ is $1.00. I usually don't know, at the beginning of the month, whether or not I'll be receiving intra-lata crank calls! With the introduction of Caller*ID service, however, crank calls have all but disappeared in this area. Dave Levenson Voice: 908 647 0900 Fax: 908 647 6857 Westmark, Inc.
