[Moderator's Note: Just as the last issue on TDD Discounts was going out the door here, the following arrived. Even though the discussion had to be closed, I did want to share this important response. PT] ------------ Recently, Curtis E. Reid (CER2520@ritvax.bitnet) wrote an article about AT&T considering removing the TDD Long Distance Call discounts. I posted Curtis's article in misc.handicap (which is also gatewayed with the ABLED and SILENTTALK conferences in Fidonet). I received various responses, including this from R. L. Buchwalter of AT&T. Bill McGarry wtm@bunker.uucp This article is from joan-b@allegra.att.com (Joan Bachenko): This is from R.L. Buchwalter of AT&T, in response to the recent mail about AT&T's TDD discounts. Please address replies to either the network or to joan-b@allegra.att.com and I will see that your comments are passed along to AT&T. Joan Bachenko AT&T Policy on TDD Discounts: Concerning the May 21 inquiry about changing the discounts for TDD users, I can say AT&T has no current plans to change these discounts. The level of TDD discounts is of the many price elements associated with a long distance call. We continually review our pricing relative to market conditions but as stated above have no plans to change the TDD pricing. R. L. Buchwalter AT&T Division Manager - LD Strategic Planning
