Subject: Centurylink won's provide an ISDN BRI - but they will
resell it to a CLEC
I've been checking on the availability of BRI (Basic Rate Interface)
ISDN lines, to find where they are still available.
I as surprised when I came across a Centurylink publication which I
think allows an end-run around their tariff: they will aparently allow
end-users to order a BRI from a CLEC, and have Centurylink provide it.

I believe it works but wow, is that expensive.
Callcentric, which Bill and I use, will sell you a POTS number for
$1/mo or toll-free for $3.95/mo + 2c/minute. Turning incoming faxes
into e-mail is free.
For the very occasional outgoing fax, I use faxzero which will send up
to 3 pages for free with their blurb on the cover sheet or up to 25
pages for $2 with no branding.
R's,
