Measured local calls may save few Kansas Bell users
Southwestern Bell told the Kansas Corporation Commission that measured service would mainly help about two percent of Kansas customers who have low local call usage. Aimed at larger cities first, the plan charges by call count, duration, time of day and distance, with a $2 monthly reduction for opt-in residential users, and a 90 day trial with a waiver of the usual $19 switch fee.

Auditor Richard E Brown notes cost advantages such as no profit margin taxes rent or financing and estimates 18 to 23 percent potential savings if bids favored private printers.
