- On December 22, 1992, AT&T filed tariff revisions with the Federal

- change, customers will be billed service charges of $.80 for Directory
- Assistance calls billed to a calling card and $1.88 for Directory
- Assistance calls placed with the assistance of an AT&T Operator.
- These service charges will apply on all Directory Assistance calls
- between states, to Canada and between the 809 area code and the U.S.
- and are in addition to the existing tariffed rate for Directory
- Assistance.
