[asterisk-users] World Cheapest Predictive Dialer!

[Mark Hamilton]

Yeah, but what do you get billed as? I understand if your callerID and the
called party is from within a state, it's interstate routing. If between
states, then it's intrastate, etc

The billing depends on the callerID you send.
So, if you send a 000-000-0000 clid to a 917 area code, what would the call
be routed/billed as?

I can set to anything on my Qwest circuit.  All zeros or whatever,
just has to be ten digits.  I have seen some that will send less than
ten like a four digit extension number on a misconfigured system.

Thanks,
