A. Complaints concerning the charges, practices, facilities, or service of the telephone utility shall be investigated promptly and thoroughly by the telephone utility. The telephone utility shall keep such records of customer complaints as will enable it to review and analyze its procedures and actions.

B. The telephone utility, except in cases of high toll usage, and when given at least four hours notice shall not terminate service to a complainant until an answer to the complaint is conveyed to the ORS. A written or oral response is allowable for complaints that the telephone utility wishes to dispose of immediately. The use of an oral response does not preclude supplying the ORS with a written response to written complaints.

C. The ORS shall promptly and thoroughly investigate complaints concerning the charges, practices, facilities, or service of the utility. Each utility shall respond to the complaint conveyed to the utility by the ORS in a timely and thorough manner. This time period shall not exceed ten (10) days from the day the complaint is received by the utility, except that the ORS may give the company additional time to respond upon request and for good cause shown.
