Handbook F-101 Revision: New Account Identifier Codes for Caller Service Fees

Effective July 17, 2008, two new Account Identifier Codes (AICs) have been established to record payments for caller ser­vice fees. Beginning Saturday, August 2, 2008, Post Offices™ and postal retail units will no longer record caller service fees together with Post Office box fees. The fees for 12-month caller service must be recorded into AIC 166, 12-Month Caller Service Fees, and fees for 6-month caller service must be recorded into AIC 167, 6-Month Caller Service Fee.

Post Office box fees will continue to be recorded into AIC 115, 12-Month PO Box Fees, and AIC 158, 6-Month PO Box Fees. Only caller services fees will be recorded into the two newly established AICs.
