Frontier: FCC docket 26-116

Frontier has asked the FCC for permission to stop offering residential and business legacy TDM-based voice service throughout the former Frontier telephone service areas in Alabama, Georgia, Iowa, Mississippi, and Tennessee, as of September 8, 2026.

We matched it to 88 telephone exchanges in 5 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.
