My long distance service was changed without my
	conscious authorization.  My service was changed from 
	ATT to:
		Frontier Communications
		30300 Telegraph Rd.
		Detroit Michigan 48034

	But in actuality, Frontier leases some lines/services
	to:
		Long Distance Services
		PO BOX 688 
		Troy, Michigan 48099

	I requested that LDS provide the documentation to support
	why my service was changed, but I haven't seen anything 
	yet.

	I didn't appreciate this one bit, especially the
	$5.00 charge to my local phone bill.

	My local phone carrier Ameritech was kind enough to
	remove the $5.00 fee.

	In the Ameritech service area (Cleveland Ohio) there is
	a number to call to prevent your long distance service
	from being "slammed".  1-800-SLAM-920
