I have spent about 2 weeks talking to various people at AT&T, but nobody even acknowledges that it exists. Other questions: Is this service available to 800 Access Line subscribers? (This is where incoming calls get routed to your regular local lines, instead of coming in on dedicated trunks). I have gotten various responses, such as "You need ISDN to do that" I don't believe this is true. Anyone know for sure? Does this service use the same boxes used for Caller ID CLASS service offered by the RBOC? Do you have to be in a CO that has Caller ID? Thanks in advance - please mail responses to: stevef%walker_richer_quinn@mcimail.com
