Yes you are certainly correct they only pay a fraction of a fraction of a penny based on an old mileage calculation. You can easily avoid this charge with trunks to the tandem in the location in question. On Nov 14, 2017 2:01 PM, "Alex Balashov" <abalashov at evaristesys.com> wrote:

Well, correction; you can port to a CLEC that can pick up the traffic at the tandem without DEOTs. That CLEC can have an entirely different local calling footprint and a different tariff. LCAs are basically an ILEC/RBOC concept, and that is the concept in which I am discussing them here.
PPS. The catch is that the CLEC would have to pay switched access as opposed to reciprocal comp (or reciprocal bill-and-keep) when moving calls in a manner that would normally incur LD charges moving between ILEC rate centres intra-LATA.
I think?
