FCC Bureau Dismisses Exotic's Complaint vs. AT&T, Charter After Accord

The FCC Enforcement Bureau dismissed a complaint by Global Franchise Development, which does business as Exotic Sportz, against AT&T and Charter Communications after the parties settled their number-porting dispute (see 1507140030). The dismissal came in an order posted Thursday in docket 15-32. The order noted the parties had asked the FCC to dismiss Exotic's complaint that Charter unlawfully ported Exotic's toll-free number away from AT&T, and also noted that both companies had denied any wrongdoing. AT&T and Charter had opposed the complaint.
