Nolan-Qwest reviewed the CR title and the Description of Change. She asked if there were any additions, changes or questions. Bert-AT&T stated that Qwest currently supported "deny" and "seasonal". She stated that "seasonal" could be restricted at the line level, but that "deny" was only at the account level. She stated that the CR was requesting "deny" at the line level. Paxton-Qwest stated that Qwest did not offer "seasonal" at the line level in the Western Region. She stated that there were large billing differences between "seasonal" and "deny". She stated that the CLECs currently use the Qwest retail collection tool. Gallegos-Qwest stated that Qwest billed at the account level, not the line level. He stated that Qwest would need to include that change in the LOE for the CR. Bert-AT&T asked if "seasonal" was billed at the line level. Gallegos-Qwest stated that it was, but not in the Western Region where it wasn't an option. Bert-AT&T asked if the LOE for this CR would include the Western Region and if they would have line level restrict for all regions. Gallegos-Qwest stated that the LOE would include all regions, but not for "seasonal". Osborne-Miller-AT&T stated that they did not want two LOEs and that they were requesting line level non-pay for all three regions. Mason-Qwest stated that a charge for restoring a line would be charged at the line level with this change. Carne-Qwest stated that currently non-pay applies to the account level and that restoring was charged at the account level. Sear-Qwest stated that with this change, if the lines were seperated out, then the charge would apply to each TN.

Nolan-Qwest stated that the products impacted would be changed to UNE-P Pots based on the eariler discussion. She asked the team what interfaces would be impacted. Bert-AT&T stated that it was IMA Common.

Nolan-Qwest asked if there were another other comments or changes to the CR. No changes.

Clarification Call completed.

This letter is in response to CLEC Change Request number SCR022703-22, dated 02/27/03, titled: Line Level restrict for Non Payment.

CLEC CR Description: Particularly for MultiLine accounts. CLEC would like the ability to restrict each line for non Payment individually, one at a time. Additionally, to restore each line one at a time.

Expected Deliverables/Proposed Implementation Date (if applicable): To be compatible with Release 14.0.

History: A clarification meeting was held on Wednesday, March 12, 2003 with AT&T and Qwest representation.

Qwest Response: Qwest has completed an analysis for CR SCR022703-22, Line Level restrict for Non Payment, and has determined that this change is economically not feasible. This request would require Qwest to restructure the manner in which accounts are currently processed through the billing system. Through Qwest’s analysis it was determined that the estimate for the initial implementation of this change would be a minimum of $1 million. Qwest believes that to implement a restriction at the line level for non-payment would be cost prohibitive.

Qwest is denying your request for SCR022703-22, Line Level restrict for Non Payment due to economic infeasibility.

Sincerely, Qwest
