Customers desirous of using GTT’s landline call blocking will have to pay from next February after the Public Utilities Commission (PUC) on Thursday approved the company’s application to institute a monthly charge for the service.
GTT, in its application to the PUC, had requested the implementation of a rate for the call blocking service to take effect as of October 1st, 2018.
The service, currently being used by 36,368 customers, is used to prevent calls from being made from landlines to other numbers, such as international and cellular numbers, with users being prompted for a PIN whenever any call is to be made, except for emergency calls.
