INTERNATIONAL PREMIUM RATE TELEPHONE SERVICES

These pay-per-call services are different from domestic premium rate services, because callers dial an international number, and the calls terminate in a foreign country. Thus a caller in Germany, Russia or the U.K. may dial an international number which delivers the call to an international country like Guyana in South America. Currently the major international termination points are Russia, Guyana, Sao Tome, Israel, Hong Kong, and Moldavia. The service bureau have their premium rate computers and live services located in these foreign countries.

The actual cost of the international call depends on the callers location and the time of day the call is made. The payment made to the Information Provider (I.P.) will also be determined by the country from which the call originated and the country to which it is delivered.

The Information Provider (I.P.) promoting international services could be located in any country in the world. These international numbers are primarily used to promote services in countries where:

• There are no local Premium Rate facilities available.
  
• Certain services cannot be promoted on the Premium Numbers in some countries, I.P.s use the international numbers to avoid the local restrictions.
  
• I.P.s using the same media to promote services in a number of countries, eg. adverts in publications such as the Int. Herald Tribune, or the Economist, which are distributed in several countries. Or more importantly, services promoted on the internet. By using an international number callers can access such services from most countries.
