PAT] Might you be able to reach a 976 number with 950-1022 to get into MCI or by dialling "10222#" and then dialing the 976 number in another area code? I guess that IBT can't be expected to block these since they never hear the tones. Carl Wright | Lynn-Arthur Associates, Inc.

Calls via 10222 or 950-1022 here to an anywhere-976 number return an intercept saying 'at the present time, MCI does not connect with 976 numbers.' Sprint is the same way. PAT]
