Change in Service Provider. 6.1 If an end user notifies SBC-AMERITECH or CLEC that the end user requests local exchange service from such Party, the Party receiving such request shall be free to immediately provide service to such end user and to use any CPNI of such end user in its possession to provide such service. The currently serving Party shall release customer-specific facilities in accordance with the end user’s direction or that of the end user’s authorized agent. 6.2 When a CLEC end user (for which CLEC purchases resale services or UNEs from SBC-AMERITECH) changes or withdraws authorization to provide service, CLEC shall provide, upon request by SBC-AMERITECH, necessary pre-order information to facilitate the prompt release of end user-specific facilities in accordance with the end user’s direction. If the account has a local freeze, CLEC will release the preorder information to a new service provider or an end user’s authorized agent upon the removal of the freeze by the end user. Such pre-order information, provided via CLEC Customer Service Record or some other mutually agreed-upon method, shall include the SBC-AMERITECH telephone number (or, if none, the end user’s circuit ID), SBC-AMERITECH billing account number and any services or features, including listings.
