Except as provided in § 10-46-69, there is hereby imposed a tax of four percent upon the privilege of the use of any intrastate, interstate, or international telecommunications service that originates or terminates in this state and that is billed or charged to a service address in this state, or that both originates and terminates in this state. However, the tax imposed by this section does not apply to:
(1) Any eight hundred or eight hundred type service unless the service both originates and terminates in this state;
(2) Any sale of a telecommunication service to a provider of telecommunication services, including access service, for use in providing any telecommunication service; or

If a call center uses an exemption certificate to purchase services not meeting the criterion established in § 10-45-6.3, the call center is liable for the applicable tax, penalty, and interest.
