| E6-12327 | Regulation of Prepaid Calling Card Services | Rule | In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (Commission) takes steps necessary to protect the federal universal service program and promote stability in the market for prepaid calling cards. In particular, the Commission will treat certain prepaid calling card service providers as telecommunications service providers. As such, these providers must pay intrastate access charges for interexchange calls that originate and terminate in the same state and interstate access charges on interexchange calls that originate and terminate in different states. They also must contribute to the federal Universal Service Fund (USF) based on their interstate revenues, subject to the limitations set forth below. The Commission also addresses a petition for interim relief filed by AT&T and adopts interim rules to facilitate compliance with the universal service and access charge rules. Specifically, on an interim and prospective basis, the Commission requires all prepaid calling card providers to comply with certain reporting and certification requirements. | 2006-08-02 | 2006 | 8 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2006/08/02/E6-12327/regulation-of-prepaid-calling-card-services | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2006-08-02/pdf/E6-12327.pdf | Federal Communications Commission | 161 | In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (Commission) takes steps necessary to protect the federal universal service program and promote stability in the market for prepaid calling cards.
