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: Aiken, SC (AIKNSCMA); Athens, AL (ATHNALMA); Auburn, IN (AUBNIN01), Boca Main, FL (BCRTFLMA); Bucksville, AL (BSMRALBU); Boynton, FL (BYBHFLMA); Cottonwood Falls, KS (CTFLKSBR); Emporia, KS (EMPRKS08); Eufaula, AL (EUFLALMA); Florence, SC (FLRNSCMA); Gravette, AR (GRVTARMA); Henryetta, OK (HNRYOKMA); Houston- Satsuma, TX (HSTNTXSA); Joplin, MO (JPLNM, as of July 14, 2026.
We matched it to 30 telephone exchanges in 10 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.
