AT&T: FCC docket 25-346

AT&T has asked the FCC for permission to stop offering home and business phone lines on the copper network in portions of the following AT&T wire centers: Hot Springs, AR (HTSPARCO); Midland, TX (MDLDTXMU); Paragould, AR (PRGLARCE); San Antonio, TX (SNANTXFR); Tulsa Owasso, OK (TULSOKOW); and Wellington, KS (WGTNKSNF), as of April 1, 2026.

Nothing stopped this request, so under FCC rules it was approved automatically on January 17, 2026. The phone company still has to notify customers before it changes their service. FCC notice

We matched it to 6 telephone exchanges in 4 states. A filing that covers "portions" of a state doesn't list addresses, so a line in one of these towns may or may not be included.
