Introduction of Attendees Introduction of participants on the conference call was made and the purpose of the call discussed.

Review Requested (Description of) Change Doug read and reviewed the CR. The CR requests a feature that would allow AT&T to block customers from making long distance calls by using operator assistance. This feature would allow CLECs to protect itself against customers from continuing to make long distance calls when the customer is in arrears. Carla stated that in discussions with others at AT&T since she had submitted the CR she was given to believe there might be an existing product that would meet the needs of AT&T. AT&T felt that Billed Number Screening combined with CustomNet and Long Distance Restriction could be a solution. She confirmed that UNE-P is the only impacted product. Terri and Mallory explained that Billed Number Screening combined with Long Distance Restriction might provide the needed capabilities. Long Distance Restriction prevents calls being dialed that begin with a 0 or 1. Billed Number Screening covers 3rd number billed calls made from a different phone. The consensus was that CustomNet capabilities would not be needed. The PCAT now reflects which types of call apply to each service. AT&T will test Billed Number Screening and Long Distance Restriction as a possible solution in the next few days and let Doug know of the results. Doug will then advise the group on what further direction this CR will take, AT&T may withdraw the CR after testing or an additional clarification meeting may be scheduled.

If testing is not successful an additional clarification meeting will be held. If testing is successful Carla may withdraw this CR at the November CMP meeting.
