Southern Bell proposes discount private lines for low income
Southern Bell argues a rate increase can be approved by offering 20 000 low income Atlanta customers a private line at 5.95 a month with 20 outgoing calls and no incoming calls while extra outgoing calls cost nine cents. The plan targets neighborhoods where most already have private lines. The PSC rate hike would raise private residential service to 9 a month and total revenue by 24.4 million.
