AT&T: FCC docket 26-143
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: Ponchatoula Main, LA (PNCHLAMA); Smithville KC, MO (SMVLMOTR); Enid, OK (ENIDOKMA); Oklahoma City/Wheatland, OK (OKCYOKWH); Deer Park, SC (CHTNSCDP); Alief, TX (HSTNTXAL); Barker, TX (HSTNTXBR); Tomball, TX (TBLLTXTB); Green Bay-Ridge, WI (GNBYWI11); and Neenah, WI (NENHWI11), as of August 11, 2026.
We matched it to 8 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.
