In 1992, Southwestern Bell Telephone Company started a new program called Call Completion. It is now a standard part of the phone company’s daily operation. If you call directory assistance for a phone number, they offer to complete the call for you by dialing the number and charging you thirty cents.

Nonetheless, nearly 8 percent of their customers use the service and generate an extra $2 million annually for the phone company. “Customer Convenience” is the buzz-phrase for today.
