Subject: Resale - Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN) Basic
Rate Interface (BRI)
Well, here's one answer to my question, although I don't know if the info is
current.
CenturyLink's retail telecommunications service, Integrated
Services Digital Network (ISDN) Basic Rate Interface (BRI) is
available for resale by Competitive Local Exchange Carriers
(CLECs) to their end-users.

Subject: ISDN's days are numbered: What should you do?
I was talking to an old friend yesterday, and he told me that he's
been working from home for a while now, and the conversation turned to
ISDN phone service, which I recommend to anyone who can still obtain
it.
This morning, while searching to find out which states, if any, still
offer ISDN Basic Rate Interface (BRI) phone lines, I came across a
story from 2016, which predicted that "BT" (I assume that's British
Telecom) would discontinue "PSTN" service in 2025.
So, I have some questions:
1. Which states still have tariffs for ISDN BRI lines?
2. Which countries still use the technology?
3. Is "BT" really going to turn off dial tones in 2025?
Curious people want to know!

Rate Interface (BRI)
Here's info on ISDN BRI service from a page at Verizon: I don't know
if it's left over from an earlier era, or if Verizon is still selling
ISDN BRI lines to government customers in any of the areas where it
operates.
I'm taking a trip down memory lane today, and tomorrow I'll
concentrate on all the latest Fiber-to-the-soup-bowl,
satellite-delivered-nonstop-porn, and Voice-over-Intermittent-
Provisioning services that are supposed to give us all attacks
of The Vapors these days.
