Yep, same here in Guatemala. Their software flags your line as suspicious if your calling patterns are odd. Snip snip goes your line. (Of course, so they can charge $0.10 a minute internationally, while charging $0.02 locally.)

In many countries (4 of which I have direct, although several year old experience with - all in Asia) taking a local phone line and attaching asterisk to it and gatewaying traffic from other countries will be considered to be 'theft' by the local governments/telco's (of their long distance revenues). My experiences were all with USA<-> Asian manufacturing locations - if you did voice-over-network between the same companies offices no sweat - the moment you allowed hop-off/hop-on gatewaying you were at risk to lose your phone lines!!!
