  KPN started providing this service for all Telcos in the second quarter of 2001 (the service is sometimes referred to as the "FRIACO" service). The KPN Telecom PSTN 06760 Internet Connect Flat Rate Service is an originating service. Its main feature is that Telco pays KPN a flat rate each month for each 2 Mbit/s of capacity instead of a charge per minute. The main benefit for Telcos and ISPs is that they can offer special price structures and, in this specific case, a flat rate charge to KPN end users. Telco or ISP is responsible for billing the (KPN) end user.
