Your residence telephone service is installed with the understanding that it will be used for domestic and social purposes.
Usage is intended for the customer's household.
All local telephone calls are billed on a per minute basis. Calls are charged according to time of day and length of conversation. In the event that a minute is split between two rate periods, the rate in effect at the start of that minute applies. The base rate for service depends upon how far away you are from the central office. If service is used primarily or substantially for business purposes or if it is advertised for business purposes, business service rates will apply.
