  • include alternative payment methods, including billed to a calling card, billed to a commercial credit card, billed as a collect call or billed to a third number; and
 
  • include a reference to the $1.00 per minute usage rate for toll-free service applicable to wireless payphone service (WPS) installations located outside the local exchange service area, consistent with Telecom Order CRTC 99-1118, 3 December 1999.
