According to an bill insert, GTE California is now offering an authorization form to prevent "slamming" by other long distance carriers. There is no charge for this form. Returning it to GTE will allow your account to be coded such that your written permission is required for a carrier change.

I just got this in my GTE Northwest bill. Maybe its a national policy. (And a good one at that...) Randal L.
