Phone1 is a long-istance provider used by some RBOCs after AT&T discontinued their ACTS service for pay phones which used coins. Using Phone1 allows the RBOCs to keep accepting coins on pay phones. The company allows direct-dialing long distance for the $1.00. Some RBOCs have pay phone with a yellow receiver to indicate it uses Phone1. The pay phone acts more like a COCOT than a regular pay phone.
