Your telephone company may discontinue your
service if your equipment causes harm to the
telephone network. They will notify you in
advance of disconnection, if possible. During
notification, you will be informed of your right to
file a complaint with the FCC.
If it is determined that your telephone equipment
is malfunctioning, the FCC requires that it not be
