* A call out of a Telephone Company employee at a time not consecutive with the employee’s scheduled work period is subject to a minimum charge of four hours.
** 1004 Hz Loss, C-Message Noise and Balance are non-chargeable routine tests; however, they may be requested on an as needed or more than routine scheduled basis, in which case the charges herein apply.
*** This charge is generally billed to the end user who is the subscriber to the Telephone Exchange Service. In those instances where the IC both requests the PIC change, and requests the associated charge be billed to it, the Telephone Company will bill the IC. In the event the subscriber is incorrectly presubscribed due to misassignment on the part of the Telephone Company, no charge shall apply. In the event the subscriber denies requesting a PIC change, the Telephone Company will credit the subscriber’s account for the P I C C associated with the alleged unauthorized change, if such charge was billed to the subscriber. The Telephone Company will then bill the IC responsible for the alleged unauthorized change a PICC C to return the subscriber to its previous authorized carrier and, if initially billed to the subscriber, the PICC for the alleged unauthorized change.
**** Blocking access to 900 Service is offered to all subscribers at no charge
