Unfortunately, there are some people out there who’d
rather not pay for their phone calls. In fact, they’d rather have
you pay for them.
So we’re implementing a plan that will help eliminate
telephone fraud. Here’s how it works:
Starting July 1,1982, when you call from a coin phone and
want to bill another number (a tliird party’ billing), the opera
tor will call that number for approval. Which means, of course,
that if no ones home, or the line is busy, your call can’t be
completed using third party7 billing.
But that doesn’t mean you can’t complete your call. You
still have the option of calling collect, paying for the call with
coins or using a Bell System Calling Card.
When you use a Calling Card, you’ll save 45c in Washing
ton and 75c in Oregon over collect, tliird party or other
calls that require operator assistance. Just dial yourself. To
get your free Calling Card,
