Section 165:58-13-1 - Obligations of telecommunication service providers and payphone service providers regarding fraud

(a) Where call screening is available, the telecommunications service provider will not bill any call, including, but not limited to, third number billed, collect, 0+ or 0- calls, to a number which has been clearly identified to the operator, at the time of the call attempt, as a payphone. The telecommunications service provider will not be responsible for refunds or adjustments of charges for calls placed through another operator. However, the telecommunication service provider shall be responsible to the payphone service provider for any fraud if the telecommunication service provider's call screening, which is paid for by the payphone service provider, fails.

(b) If a payphone service provider provides payphone service in a territory where call screening is not available, the payphone service provider shall be responsible to the provider(s) of telecommunication services who are adversely affected by fraudulent traffic from or to any of the payphones placed by the payphone service provider in such a territory, except that if a telecommunications service provider fails to comply with OAC 165:58-11-1(d), the telecommunications service provider shall be responsible to the providers of telecommunication services who are adversely affected by fraudulent traffic from or to payphones located in such territory.
