Content-Length: 548 It has come to my attention that my local phone company has filed with the FCC to allow charges for local phone calls utilizing internet access. I want to voice my objection to this course of action. Why should someone utilizing the internet pay extra for local phone usage as compared to someone who simply makes a lot of local phone calls to friends. I really don't think that internet users will take down the phone system with overuse. I think that phone companies are trying to make a buck. Please let me voice be heard.

Personally, I have an ISDN line that was installed as my primary internet access vehicle. While this was my personal choice to add the additional line to my residence, I feel that people who can't afford a dedicated line should be penalized. The telephone companies should be investing in more up to date technologies rather than expanding their older networks. If other, better alternatives were more widely available, then some of the load would be taken off the analog system.

Their claims that internet usage ties up existing lines is spurious at best, and is a last-ditch attempt to get on the bandwagon and get as much money as they can from the consumer. This request, if granted, will limit and in some cases curtail use of the internet by nearly everyone.

The internet providers are providing a vital service at an affordable price unlike the phone companies. Just like everything else the big businesses get into they beg, buy, or steal from the little guy at the governments blessing. I am sick of it. I would like the phone companies to provide the services they tauted years ago at the prices they promised and then we could talk about the internet hurting their business. IT IS TIME FOR THE GOVERNMENT TO WAKE UP! It is the people who you should be listening to, not the fat cats that are destroying the fabric of our country for the sake of the bottom line. Do you honestly believe the employees would benefit? No! It would be the officers on their fat contracts and majority stake stockholders that would benefit. My name is James H. Phillips Jr, residing at 147 Indian Springs Dr., Alexander, AR 72002-3012. I would be very happy to hear from you that you have decided to let the people have this one and tell the phone companies to take their record profits and return some of their overpricing to the customers.

Regarding CC Docket No. 96-263: Local telephone companies should not be allowed to assess interstate access charges against Internet Service Providers, or in any way require the payment of time-related charges against internet related use of the present public switched network. As a technical professional with a personal and business interest in seeing the internet continue to grow, I have a particularly unique perspective regarding the Local Telephone Company request for access charges. The vitality of the internet has grown only in the environment of unlimited fixed price access. The commecial attraction to the internet rides strictly on the amount of exposure that a given internet presence provides to the Web Page owner/service provider. In the present environment, internet users can explore the Web at their leisure, and for unlimited time. While exploring the Web, they have no pressures to stop exploring due to the cost of the time spent on the activity. This provides an environment in which more Web sites are seen by every user, therefore expanding the exposure of a Web Page owner/service provider.This is like "window shopping". In a general marketplace such as this, people do not pay to window shop. In an environment in which the Web user must "watch the clock", users will only go on line to quickly perform known existing operations, and will do so only with known web service providers. The ability to attract new business through advertising on the web, and gaining exposure through user exploration will be reduced significantly. An excellent example of what happens in the time-charged environment is the situation in Europe. Europe is FAR behind the US in internet activity precisely because of the excesively high charges for local telephone access to the internet. For the most part these countries have recognized that there is a significant problem that is holding them back from this important new technological arena, and THEY ARE TRYING TO REVERSE THE EXACT SITUATION THAT THE ACCESS CHARGES HERE WOULD CREATE! Charging access fees or allowing other time related charges will destroy the internet. It will damage a new and important area of commerce, perhaps irreparably. It would put the US behind the rest of the world in a strategic technology. Any efforts to allow these charges should be rejected.

I am writing in response to the proposed per minute phone charges that local telephone companies have put under proposal to the fcc regarding internet use. Obviously, I think the idea of a per minute phone charge for internet use is a terrible idea. I also think it is extortion and illegal. First, let me say that the billing methods for local phone service have been fairly set and normalized for some time. The request to change billing methods; to raise billing methods, based only on what the phone service is being used for represents a great injustice, and in my opinion, an invasion of privacy. Billing methods should be based as they always have been, not on what the device is being used for. Secondly, let me say that here in phoenix, as is probably true in most major cities, telephone deregulation is a major influence. I, personnally feel that this proposal to the fcc is a last ditch effort on the part of the local phone providers to extort more money out of it's customers before their power base is eroded. Here, we have a prominent cable company and probably other companies gearing up to provide local phone service. Obviouly, the existing local phone provider's will experiance a drop in profit margin when deregulation becomes a reality. If this fcc bill should pass, I will certainly switch my phone service to the cable company and let the local phone companies know, that I'm no longer a locked customer. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- smithe@getnet.com http://www.getnet.com/~smithe Desertfox ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From tlclark@nettally.com Fri Feb 28 11:43:56 1997 Return-Path: tlclark@nettally.com Received: from gatekeeper2.fcc.gov (firewall-user@internet2.fcc.gov [165.135.0.253]) by www2.fcc.gov (8.6.12/8.6.12) with ESMTP id LAA00380 for ; Fri, 28 Feb 1997 11:43:56 -0500 Received: by gatekeeper2.fcc.gov; id KAA03505; Fri, 28 Feb 1997 10:25:47 -0500 (EST) Received: from gossimer.nettally.com(199.44.114.224) by gatekeeper2.fcc.gov via smap (V3.1.1) id xma003498; Fri, 28 Feb 97 10:25:41 -0500 Received: from m2-012.ppp.nettally.com ([199.44.114.12]) by gossimer.nettally.com (post.office MTA v2.0 0813 ID# 0-11170) with SMTP id AAA522 for ; Fri, 28 Feb 1997 10:25:37 -0500 Message-ID: <331721A0.6CD@nettally.com> Date: Fri, 28 Feb 1997 10:19:12 -0800 From: tlclark@nettally.com (Clark, Terrence) Reply-To: tlclark@nettally.com X-Mailer: Mozilla 3.0Gold (Win16; U) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: isp@fcc.gov Subject: They made their beds, now make them lie in them. Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Length: 2039 Dear FCC, I am tired of big business in this country not wanting to spend some its profits to stay on the cutting edge. In the '70 you had car companies that did not care about the quality of their product and foreign companies then started sending over better cars for a lesser price. It has now taken the American car companies a decade to recover. Before that you had the steel mills that did not want to invest profits to up date machinery so they could produse steel at a cheaper cost. So the foreign companies did invest the money to up date and they started producing steel at a lower price. Now we have a lot of steel mills thst are shut down and they are not going to reopen. I realise that the only differnce between these two examples and the phone companies is phone companies do not have to worry about competition from foreign companies. This makes you the equalizer. I am sure that if the foreign companies could they would come in here and buy a smaller company and invest a lot of money to upgrade the equipment. They would then reduce the price to get the market share and then American companies would start sceaming we are losing money. They would start laying off people and demanding grant money so they can get back into the market. Of course they will then sell this idea to you as help save American jobs and if refuse then you look like the bad guy. Please tell the phone companies that they chose to make their equipment to handle short calls and now they are paying the price for lack of vision. Then remind them that if they spent less money on the lobbiests that are before you that they might be closer to developing a new technology that would solve the problem and allow them to recoupe some their losses. Remind them that they are not in a capitalist market because they have very limited competition. I thank you for your time and I hope you have a great weekend. -- Take Care.

I have a question. If they are going to charge anything for the use of a phone line that is already being paid for, is this going to be for all phone lines? Are they going to charge for the star-crossed lovers that stay on the phone all night to hear each other breath? Are they going to charge for the time that it takes to get through to the destination that you desire, are they going to charge for the"busy signals" on our personal phone calls. my concern is that the phone company is already charging an exorbinate amount to the public, and to insist on charging more, is dealing into the monopoly that was suppose to have been dealt with years ago. thank you for listening to my concerns.

CNET gave out your email address. In Milwaukee, Wisconsin, the rates for ISDN exploded last year. They had been charging a flat rate, about $40/mth. Then they went up to a per minute charge, which makes even AVERAGE use cost about $125-150/mth! Unfortunately, this Ameritech MONOPOLY wants to discourage growth with ISDN and has priced it out of the market. Just wanted to tell somebody.

One of the most important aspects of the growth of on-line services and potential future growth is the ability of consumers to access these services at the most competitive rates possible. Surcharges by local phone companies will make that much more difficult. It is in the best interests of the growth of this still fledgling industry to disallow surcharging. Thank you for your consumer-oriented response in this matter.

Date: Friday, February 28, 1997 11:52AM Kurt, Let them archive only, no reporting. I think we are trying to duplicate a real scenario and with the addition of TAWS, we have enough. It has been hard enough getting it straight (we have not on the AF circuit) with only three playing, let alone five. My vote, please NO. Besides, it is not in the SIT plan AND I don't think it will do the shooter any good. More later on that, but I don't think they will be asking for non-reduced now, despite what Stan Nelson broadcasts. Thanks for the update on the other STEW and asking my opinion on EUR.

I strongly doubt that network performance has been degraded by such activity and believe that the request is merely based on the desire for revenue enhancement. I have not noted any increase in call blocking over the past few years. Had such blocking occurred, I would have believed that there was network degradation. Such timed charges for line use by non-commercial subscribers would appear to discriminate against those who use the telephone network for non-voice purposes. The ISP's appear to be paying their way and the telephone company is merely out to gouge the customer. They might do better to improve the quality of ISDN service so that it becomes economically viable outside the few areas where it is fine-tuned by design engineers acting as technicians. Arthur W.

Do not allow them to raise the rates, and thus cause higher priced Internet access. Instead encourage them to build better and more efficient digital networks, which would allow faster Internet access.This would also have the dual effect of freeing up the analog network for what it was built to do, that is carry voice traffic.

I have heard that this is true for lines used to make calls to internet service providers. As a consumer whose telephone charges are already inflated with taxes and high monthly rates, I would be against any extra charges on my phone line. It would be unfair to impose additional charges simply because I am using the connection for computer communication instead of a voice conversation. Your response on this question and to this matter will be appreciated.

I think the whole idea is ridiculous and we will, if necessary, form a customer coalition and oppose this vehemently (in court if we have to). The phone companies have failed to keep up with the times and the internet technology for long-distance communication now threatens their business. This is a pathetic attempt on their part to milk the customer. WE WILL NOT STAND FOR IT!!!!!!!
