TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) - The Attorney General says Verizon
doesn't repair phone lines quickly enough.
Bill McCollum made the comment in a filing with state regulators
today seeking a fine against the phone giant.
McCollum joined the AARP and Florida Public Counsel J.R. Kelly,
who represents the state's residents in utility cases, in asking
the Florida Public Service Commission to slap the phone company
with a $6.5 million fine.
They say Verizon repeatedly last year violated rules requiring
95 percent of outages be fixed within 24 hours.
The company released a statement saying it provided "great
phone service" and was investing millions of dollars in its
network.
