Ariz. Admin. Code § R14-2-2011 - Script Submission

A. Each Telecommunications Company shall file under seal in a docket designated by the Director of the Utilities Division ("Director") a copy of all sales or marketing scripts used by its (or its agent's) sales or customer service workers. For the Purposes of this rule, "sales or marketing scripts" means all scripts that involve an offer to sell a product or service or a response to a request for a product or service, including all scripts for unrelated matters that include a prompt for the sales or customer service workers to offer to sell a product or service.

B. A Telecommunications Company shall make the filing described in R14-2-2011(A) at the following times:

1. 90 days from the day these rules are first published in a Notice of Final Rulemaking in the Arizona Administrative Register;

2. On April 15 of each year;

3. Whenever directed to do so by the Director; and

4. Whenever a material change to a script occurs or a new script is used that is materially different from a script on file with the Director.

C. The Director may request further information or clarification on any script, and the Telecommunications Company shall respond to the Director's request within 10 days.

D. The Director may initiate a formal complaint under R14-3-101 through R14-3-113 to review any script. The failure to file such a complaint or request further information or clarification does not constitute approval of the script, and the fact that the script is on file with the Commission may not be used as evidence that the script is just, reasonable, or not fraudulent.
