I spoke to Pac Bell this afternoon about COCOT regulations.  10xxx
dialing is not required by the California PUC.  I had thought this was
what their August billing insert had said and wanted to confirm it
before posting.

They DID know the PUC complaint number right away, though, and I
consider that big progress.  That number in California is
800/648-6967.

It was busy when I called.

So it looks like two changes could be made to the labels -- re 10xxx
and this 800 number!


By the way, I haven't tried it but is it legally required for those
blue AT&T non-coin payphones to let you use Sprint if you want?
