Consolidated Communications: FCC docket 24-143
Consolidated Communications has asked the FCC for permission to stop offering business local exchange voice and data services provisioned over third- party facilities in Bethel Park, Butler, Canonsburg, Carnegie, Cecil, Coraopolis, Freedom, Greensburg, Grove City, Irwin, Jefferson Hills, Karns City, McMurray, Monroeville, Mt. Lebanon, Natrona Heights, New Castle, North Huntingdon, Penn Hills, Pittsburgh, Robinson, Sewickley, Slippery Rock, Tarentum, Vandergrift, Washington, and West Mifflin, Pennsylvania, as of August 17, 2024.
Nothing stopped this request, so under FCC rules it was approved automatically on August 17, 2024. The phone company still has to notify customers before it changes their service. FCC notice
This filing comes from a company that sells lines over another phone company's network, or it names cities or customers rather than telephone exchanges, so we don't match it to town pages. If you buy phone lines from Consolidated Communications, it applies to you; the FCC docket has the full details.
