They currently have five different systems (due to a bunch of mergers). They also will introduce a new calling card service with voice mail, etc, like the Telecom*USA card. (ATC stands for Advanced Telecommunications Corp.) (This should be interesting since I have had accounts with three of the companies they bought).
