SECTION III - DESCRIPTION OF SERVICES (Continued)
Calculation of Distance
Usage charges for all mileage sensitive products are based on the airline distance between rate
centers associated with the originating and terminating points of the call.
The airline mileage between rate centers is determined by applying the formula below to the
vertical and horizontal coordinates associated with the rate centers involved.
(V1- V2)2 + (H 1- H2)
FORMULA:
Minimum Call Completion
Customers can expect a call completion rate of98% during peak use periods for all Feature Group D
Equal Access 1 + and 0+ Services. The call completion rate is calculated as the number of calls
completed (including calls completed to a busy line or to a line which remains unanswered by the
called party) divided by the number of calls completed.
Rate Period Overlap
For messages which overlap one or more rate periods the rate in effect for each rate period for
each portion of the call is applicable.
Subject to the billing increments set forth in this tariff, plus any additional charges which may
apply, long distance usage charges are based on the actual usage of Excel's service. Usage begins
when the called party picks up the receiver. When the called party picks up timing is determined
by hardware answer supervision. Chargeable time ends when either party "hangs up" thereby
releasing the connection. Excel does not bill for uncompleted calls.
Service Area
The service area of Excel includes all Equal Access points in Idaho.
