Reject Aureon's Tariff Refund Plan: Lumen

Lumen asked the FCC to reject Aureon's proposed tariff refund plan, after an FCC order requiring the company to submit information needed to calculate refunds to its customers, in comments posted Monday in docket 18-60 (see 2204280038). Lumen said Aureon used actual minutes of use to calculate interstate switched access transport rates that the FCC previously found unlawful and it "continues to overstate its revenue requirement." The FCC "should scrutinize the Aureon revenue requirements supporting the refund access rates to ensure that Aureon has complied with prior commission directive," it said.
