CLEAR CHOICE COMMUNICA TIONS(ID DESCRIPTION OF SERVICES
General
1.1 Introduction
The Carrier endeavors to provide high quality service. Service is available
twenty-four (24) hours per day, seven (7) days a week, subject to routine
maIntenance and outages beyond the control ofthe Carrier. Carrier s switching
equipment is designed and engineered to provide high quality transmission of
voice and data with a minimum level of impairment such as noise and echo.
However, overall quality may vary somewhat due to the variability in quality
of the conn~ctions provided by the local telephone companies and other
interexchange carriers.
1.2 Timing of Calls
(A)Long distance usage charges are based on the actual conversation time
transpiring on CCC's network. No charge will generally apply to
uncompleted calls, which include "ring busy" and "ring no answer
calls " and such uncompleted calls will not be knowingly charged to the
Customer and, if charged in error, will be refundable to the Customer.
In the event that the Customer fails to hang up when receiving a busy
signal or "ring no answer call" for an excessive period of time
however, the Customer may be charged as if the call were completed.
CCC will determine that a call has been established by signal, where
available, from the local telephone company or underlying carrier.
(B)Unless otherwise specified in this tariff, the minimum call duration for
billing purposes is one (1) minute for a connected call.
