TO:     The Commission

                                          APPLICATION


       US Dial, Inc. by its undersigned counsel, hereby requests "global" authority, pursuant to

Section 214 of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended, 47 U.S.C. § 214 (1982), and Section

63.18 ofthe Commission‘s Rules, 47 C.F.R. § 63.18 (1996), to provide international telecommunica—

tions services between the United States and various international points. US Dial, Inc. qualifies for

streamlined processing because it is not affiliated with any foreign carriers with 50% or greater share

of any relevant market, and it will not be a dominant carrier as defined in Section 63.10(a)(1).

        Grant of US Dial, Inc.‘s request for resale and facilities—based authority to provide

international services will further the Commission‘s policies of bringing increased competition to

the U.S. international telecommunications services market and, therefore, is in the public interest.


       Information Required Under Section 63.18

       As required by Sectibn 63.18 of the Commission‘s Rules, US Dial, Inc. submits the follow—

ing informati

       (a)       Tame, address and telephone number of the applicant:

                          S Dial, Inc.

       (b)       JS Dial, Inc. is a privately—owned corporation organized under the laws of the
                 ommonwealth of Virginia.

                        David L. Miller
                        Executive Vice President
                        US Dial, Inc.

                        Sterling, Virginia 20164

       (d)       JS Dial, Inc. has not previously received authority under Section 214 of the Act.
                 Jpon grant of this application, US Dial, Inc. will become an authorized non—
                 ominant facilities—based carrier and reseller with global authority, subject to Section
                 14 of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended, and the Commission‘s Rules.
                 JS Dial, Inc. lacks the market power that would allow it to control prices to the
                 etriment of market competition.

       (e)      JS Dial, Inc. requests Section 214 authority to operate as a facilities—based carrier
                pursuant to the terms and conditions of Section 63.18(e)(1) and to operate as a resale
                carrier pursuant to the terms and conditions of Section 63.18(e)(2). Specifically, US
                Dial, Inc. seeks to (1) obtain global facilities—based authority to acquire interests in
                whole and half—circuits in submarine cables, establish channels of communication
                with satellite systems, and utilize necessary connecting facilities, other than facilities
                listed on the Exclusion List, to provide international telecommunications services
                between the United States and all international points except those points excluded
                by the Exclusion List; (2) obtain global authority to resell international switched
                services of all unaffiliated U.S.—authorized carriers to provide international switched
                services between the United States and all international points served by those

                                                  —2


      carriers; (3) obtain global authority to resell international non—interconnected private
      lines to provide international private line services between the United States and all
      permitted international points; (4) obtain global authority to resell international
      private lines interconnected to the PSN at one or both ends to provide international
      switched services between the United States and all countries approved by the FCC
      for such services.

(£)   At this time, US Dial, Inc. does not seek authority to provide services not referenced
      under paragraph (e) of Section 63.18 of the Commuission‘s Rules.

(g)   The authority requested in this application is categorically excluded from environ—
      mental processing as defined by Section 1.1306 of the Commission‘s Rules,
      47 C.F.R. § 1.1306.     As such, an environmental assessment is not required for
      purposes of this application and, therefore, is not attached.

(h)   US Dial, Inc. certifies that it is not affiliated with any U.S. carriers with market
      power whose facilities—based services it proposes to resell. Under Section
      63.18(h)(1)(i) of the Commission‘s Rules, 47 C.F.R. § 63.18(h)(1)(i), US Dial, Inc.

      relevant market in a destination country. US Dial, Inc does not have any foreign or
      domestic affiliations. The following persons hold a ten percent or greater ownership
