Residential Service is defined as a Customer being provided Local Exchange
Service, where the actual or obvious use of the service either by him/herself,

more of a residential (social or domestic) than a business nature.

apply to institutions such as churches, schools, hospitals, health care centers, non-

to be classified or reclassified as a business service unless the residential telephone
number is advertised by the customer in a Telephone Directory. For purposes of
this definition, the customer shall include the end user, any member of the end
user’s household or any person residing at the end user’s service address.
In the event the Customer advertises his/her residential telephone number in a
business directory such as “Yellow Pages” or a similar directory, the Company will
notify the Customer of its intent to reclassify the Customer’s service as business
service based on that advertisement. If the Customer demonstrates that he/she was
unaware that such an advertisement would be viewed by the Company as a basis to
reclassify residential service to business service, the Company will permit the
Customer to continue receiving residential service at the residential rates, but the
Company will assign the Customer a new telephone number with no connection
charges on a one-time basis, with no availability of call forwarding from the
disconnected number.
A customer who is currently paying a business rate and would like to change to
residential service because he/she is no longer a business has the option to:
(1) Change his/her telephone number and be charged residential rates
for that new number. A service order and line connection charge
will apply. If the customer chooses to advertise his/her new
telephone number, his/her account will be charged business rates;
or
(2) Choose to keep his/her current telephone number. If so, the
following conditions must be met:
At the time a customer requests a change in status, the Company will take the
account out of his/her business name and list his/ her account under the customer
name. A service order charge applies at this time. When the next telephone
directory, in which the advertisement appeared, is published and there is no listing
for the business name, the account rate will be changed from business to residential
service. No service order charge will apply at this time. It is the responsibility of
the customer to notify the Company when the new directory is printed without the
customer’s listing.
