Lumen (CenturyLink): FCC docket 25-202

Lumen (CenturyLink) has asked the FCC for permission to stop offering Plain Old Telephone Service and Primary Rate Interface Service in Pike Road, Hope Hull and Montgomery, Alabama; in Baton Rouge, Louisiana; in Bay St. Louis, Biloxi, Gautier, Gulfport, Kiln and on Keesler AFB, Mississippi; and in De Forest, Fitchburg, Hartford, Madison, Middleton and Sun Prairie, Wisconsin, as of September 9, 2025.

Nothing stopped this request, so under FCC rules it was approved automatically on July 27, 2025. 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 Lumen (CenturyLink), it applies to you; the FCC docket has the full details.
