Regulation 35 Non-payment of bills—systemless service providers

The Director shall specify measures to ensure that in cases of non-payment of telephone bills for use of fixed public telephone systems due warning of any consequent service interruption or disconnection is given by systemless service providers providing access to that system. The systemless service providers shall be under a duty to comply with any measures specified by the Director in accordance with this regulation.

The measures referred to in paragraph (1) above shall fulfil the requirements set out in regulation 34 paragraph (2)(a) and (b).

The Director may decide that, where appropriate, complete disconnection takes place only after a stated period. In such cases calls which do not incur a charge to that subscriber shall be permitted.
