Southwestern Bell in Texas has proposed a tariff for Caller ID
services.  While there is some concern over conflicts with Texas
privacy and wiretapping laws, the tariff is expected to be approved.

Services are:

Caller number:            $6.50
Caller name:               6.50
Caller name and number:    8.00
Call Block rejection       3.00 (if ordered separately from CALLID. 
                                 $1.00 if ordered with other services)

Since other optional features here in Texas cost about $3.10,
(although SWB is raising the price on Call Waiting to $3.85 due to
popularity), these new tariffs seem rather steep.

I am looking for some information on pricing structures in other
states; any direction would be helpful.

No mention of per-call or all-call blocking, and charges (if any) for that
and charges for changes (if any)?
