Sometimes if the no one is home at the number you're trying to bill to, you can convince the operator that it's really you're number if you know what the answering machine message is going to say and if you can do an impression of their voice on the machine. Even a bad impression will sometimes work. When doing this from home, try not to use the same number more than two or three times so the owner of the number will be less likely to investigate. I've experienced third-party billing from both sides. Someone charged forty dollars worth of calls to my dad's phone and the operators were very unhelpful and unfriendly. They refused to investigate even though it was comming from a residential line and it took two months to get the charges removed. This was back in 1990 but I've been doing this for a few years now and people don't seem to care too much at a few calls totaling to under ten bucks. I've actually called the people I used and asked them about it and they almost always blow it off as a "minor nusience." AT&T is completely automated from your home and the best to use. U.S.Sprint is the second best because they're not automated but they also don't call and verify. M.C.I. sucks because they're losers who verify no matter what so don't use them. To choose your company, before you dial the number dial 10288 for AT&T or 10333 for U.S. Sprint. International calls will be verified no matter what from pay phone or home. Hope this file benefits everyone who reads it. It'll sure cut your long distance bill down a lot. May 13, 1995 Update: ------------------- Well, it seems that AT&T are finally waking up to this problem of third party billing...On my local phone bill I was backbilled for $175 worth of third party calls. The kicker part is that I called the phone company and complained that there were all these extra charges on my bill that I know nothing about and they were more than happy to take the charges off. A few weeks later, I got a letter from AT&T concerning some more charges...
