In addition to the aforesaid, the Licensee may not distinguish between the tariffs that he charges the subscriber for calling telephone numbers with regular numbering plans and for calling special telephone numbers at regular tariffs, including by determining separate minute packages.

 
(d)
If the charge for calls to destinations with special telephone numbers is done in accordance with a composed tariff, the Licensee shall count the minutes of the calls to said destinations as part of a limited plan or as part of any unlimited plan, for which the subscriber pays.

The Licensee may charge the subscriber for the services that are provided as part of calling telephone numbers that are charged according to a composed tariff, whether the charge is per minute of the call or whether the charge is a constant charge for a call, in addition to the regular payment for the package of minutes.
