Common use of Timing of Calls Clause in Contracts

Timing of Calls. Generally, timing of metered calls begins when the called party or an automated answering device (such as an answering machine, a PBX auto-attendant or a facsimile machine) answers the call, and ends when one of the parties disconnects from the call. However, some foreign carriers (with whom we must interconnect in order to terminate calls to foreign countries) designate a call as “answered” when the called party’s line rings or after a certain number of rings, and will charge us for a completed call. In these situations, we will charge you for these calls as if they were answered by the called party.
