The fibre pledge was part of a franchise agreement signed by Verizon with the city in 2008. During an audit conducted in 2017, the city found that over 40,000 requests for service were still pending, most of which had been outstanding for 12 months or longer. https://www.telecompaper.com/news/verizon-settles-lawsuit-with-nyc-with-pledge-to-bring-fios-broadband-to-500000-more-households--1363365 ------------------------------ Message-ID: <20201126034840.3538073C@telecom2018.csail.mit.edu> Date: Thu, 26 Nov 2020 03:48:40 +0000 (UTC) From: Moderator <telecomdigestsubmissions@remove-this.telecom-digest.org> Subject: Happy Thanksgiving TCPAworld!: Here Are the Top 10 TCPA Stories Happy Thanksgiving TCPAworld!: Here Are the Top 10 TCPA Stories to be Grateful For This Time of Year Tuesday, November 24, 2020 I know that many of you have the sense that its all-bad-news-all- the-time around here and feel like there are simply no silver linings to be found - but there is ALWAYS something to be thankful for in life, and TCPAWorld is no exception.
