A. An ILEC shall list basic local exchange service customers (except those customers requesting otherwise) in the directory assistance database within twenty-four (24) hours of service connection, except during times of regular maintenance, in which case the listing shall occur within forty-eight (48) hours of service connection.
B. If an ILEC makes an error in the listed number or name of any customer, then until a new directory is published, the ILEC shall make, at no charge to the customer, whatever special arrangements are necessary and reasonable to ensure that calling parties are able to reach the customer whose listed number or name is in error.
C. If an ILEC makes an error in the number, name or address of any listing of any customer, the ILEC shall place the customer's correct name, address and telephone number in the files of the directory assistance and intercept operators within seventy-two (72) hours of confirmation of the error.
D. When a customer's telephone number is changed at the request of the customer after a directory is published, the LEC shall provide intercept service for all calls to the former number for the lesser of sixty (60) days or until a new directory is issued. If the change is made at the initiative of the LEC, the LEC shall provide intercept service for the former number at no charge to the customer for the greater of sixty (60) days or the remaining life of the current directory. The LEC shall provide the correct number to its information operator within twenty-four (24) hours of the number change (except during times of regular maintenance, in which the case the listing shall occur within forty-eight (48) hours of service connection) or send it to the carrier providing information operator service within twenty-four (24) hours if the local exchange carrier does not provide its own service. The LEC's intercept recording shall state how the caller can obtain the new number.
