Establishment of Service 6.1 After receiving certification as a local exchange company from the appropriate regulatory agency, <<customer_name>> will provide the appropriate BellSouth service center the necessary documentation to enable BellSouth to establish a master account for <<customer_name>>’s resold services. Such documentation shall include the Application for Master Account, proof of authority to provide telecommunications services, an Operating Company Number ("OCN") assigned by the National Exchange Carriers Association ("NECA") and a tax exemption certificate, if applicable. When necessary deposit requirements are met, as described in Section 6.6 below, BellSouth will begin taking orders for the resale of service. 6.2 Service orders will be in a standard format designated by BellSouth. 6.3 <<customer_name>> shall provide to BellSouth a blanket letter of authorization ("LOA") certifying that <<customer_name>> will have End User authorization prior to viewing the End User's customer service record or switching the End User's service. BellSouth will not require End User confirmation prior to establishing service for <<customer_name>>’s End User customer. <<customer_name>> must, however, be able to demonstrate End User authorization upon request. 6.4 BellSouth will accept a request directly from the End User for conversion of the End User's service from <<customer_name>> to BellSouth or will accept a request from another CLEC for conversion of the End User's service from <<customer_name>> to such other CLEC. Upon completion of the conversion BellSouth will notify <<customer_name>> that such conversion has been completed. 6.5 If BellSouth is informed that an unauthorized change in local service to <<customer_name>> has occurred, BellSouth will reestablish service with the appropriate local service provider and will assess <<customer_name>> as the CLEC initiating the alleged unauthorized change, the unauthorized change charge described in FCC Tariff No. 1, Section 13 or applicable state tariff. Appropriate nonrecurring charges, as set forth in Section A4 of the General Subscriber Service Tariff, will also be assessed to <<customer_name>>. In accordance with FCC Slamming Liability Rules, the relevant governmental agency will determine if an unauthorized change has occurred. Resolution of all relevant issues shall be handled directly with the authorized CLEC and <<customer_name>>. 6.6 BellSouth reserves the right to secure the account with a suitable form of security deposit, unless satisfactory credit has already been established. 6.6.1 Such security deposit shall take the form of cash for cash equivalent, an irrevocable Letter of Credit or other forms of security acceptable to BellSouth. Any such security deposit may be held during the continuance of the service as security for the payment of any and all amounts accruing for the service. 6.6.2 If a security deposit is required, such security deposit shall be made prior to the inauguration of service. 6.6.3 Such security deposit shall be two months' estimated billing. 6.6.4 The fact that a security deposit has been made in no way relieves <<customer_name>> from complying with BellSouth's regulations as to advance payments and the prompt payment of bills on presentation nor does it constitute a waiver or modification of the regular practices of BellSouth providing for the discontinuance of service for non-payment of any sums due BellSouth. 6.6.5 BellSouth reserves the right to increase the security deposit requirements when, in its reasonable judgment, changes in <<customer_name>>'s financial status so warrant and/or gross monthly billing has increased beyond the level initially used to determine the security deposit. 6.6.6 In the event service to <<customer_name>> is terminated due to <<customer_name>>'s default on its account, any security deposits held will be applied to <<customer_name>>'s account. 6.6.7 Interest on a cash or cash equivalent security deposit shall accrue and be paid in accordance with the terms in the appropriate BellSouth tariff.
