Consolidated Communications: FCC docket 26-233
Consolidated Communications has asked the FCC for permission to stop offering legacy voice service at locations in one exchange in New York that are passed by fiber, as of November 3, 2026.
Nothing stopped this request, so under FCC rules it was approved automatically on September 27, 2026. 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.
