Alex,
Calls forwarded via Remote Call Forwarding are just like calls forwarded
from a metered business or residential POTS line.  If the destination to
which you have selected to forward calls is normally a local call, you will
just incur the standard metered call rate.  If the call is normally a local
toll charge (within the same LATA), you will incur toll charges from the
LEC.  If the call is long distance, you will need to select an IXC -- who
will bill just as if the calls were made from a POTS line.  

Sincerely,
Trevor Hammonds
