Last year, Bell operators stopped accepting third number local calls billed from coin telephones. On April 15 of this year, on a. -.jird number long distance calls from coin telephones operators began attempting to contact the billed party to confirm that the person plac- ing the call was known and that the charge was accep- table. However if verification was not possible because the line was busy or there was no answer, the call was still put through. Starling October 17, all such numbers will have to be verified before the call is con- nected. If there is no answer or a busy signal at the billing number, the person placing the call will have the option of paying by coin. calling collect or using a long distance Call-• ing •Card tm • or calling another time. Murray Makin, Bell's vice- president of customer 'ser- vices said the October.17 date was chosen to allow customers who regularly make third number calls from coin telephones to obtain Calling Cards. "Calling Cards will allow customers to charge long distance calls at regular operator -assisted rates," Makin said, Calling Cards are available to qualified .business or residence users at no charge and can be obtained by com- pleting the application form that will be enclosed with their August telephone bills. In 1982 there were more than 2-.0.u00 fraudulent third number long distance calls placed from coin telephones in Bell territory resulting in a loss of more than $1.3 million. This is a 90 percent increase in fraud of this type since 1980. HITS 90 - The year 1983 has been a very special one for Mrs. Mary Han- nigan of Exeter.
