Myths

Myth #1:  It takes hundreds of thousands of dollars to become a facilities-based CLEC

Not true.  With external call control your modem banks are transformed into a phone switch with one purpose:  to answer modem calls.  As an ISP, you already have all of the equipment needed to operate as a facilities based CLEC. 

Myth #2:  One must have high priced telecommunications lawyers, consultants, and staff to start and operate a CLEC

Not true.  We do all of the work to get your CLEC established and to train your existing staff to handle the day-to-day operations.  Unlike lawyers and other consultants: we get paid when your new CLEC saves you money, if you don't save, we don't get paid. 

Myth #3:  It takes two years minimum to become operational as a CLEC

No.  We start from zero and take your ISP operational as a facilities-based CLEC in as little as six to nine months.  We are not starting from scratch.  We build upon what you have already done as an ISP and our own experience in creating CLECs.  One could spend two years creating a CLEC, but you don't have to.

Myth #4:  You can save just about as much as a customer of a CLEC as being one

Absolutely Not!  Depending on the circuit, you can save as much as 85%; overall your savings will average 40% to 50% each and every month by becoming a CLEC.  The low cost involved with working with American CLEC, makes becoming a CLEC is worth every penny.
