Charges Overview:
All items such as Phone Numbers & E911 have a recurring cost. All phone numbers have 'usage' cost at a per minute rate deemed by the type of phone number and the direction of the call.
For example:
Incoming Toll Free (Domestic), Outgoing PSTN would be billed at a rate of $0.025 + $0.01/minute = $0.035/minute.
Incoming Toll Free (Canada), Outgoign PSTN would be billed at a rate of $0.06/minute + $0.1/minute = $0.07/minute.
So that goes to show that a call always has two legs (Incoming + Outgoing).
Please do keep in mind that SIP legs are free, so a "standard" residential call (non-forwarded) would only be billed for a single leg, dependent on the direction of the call i.e. incoming or outgoing.
In regards to E911 and associated fees. E911 is only available / applicable for "Full Service Line" accounts. The fees associated are $1.00/month. It is at your discretion to enable / disable for your emergency service needs. However I can not get into the legalities - so it is best to find out your E911 obligations through your own consultation.
Let me know if this all makes sense, thanks!
