The FCC ignominiously rejected the NYNEX proposed access charge billing plan. The plan would have moved the originating-side interstate access allocation from the long distance carrier (it's about 4c/minute of all calls) to the end user. There would have been a sliding scale discount, so big users would pay less. Billing would have been a nightmare. Stay tuned for more weird billing schemes. --------------------
