Talking.
It’s the best way to find out what’s happening.
To understand.
At Pacific Northwest Bell, we believe in
talking things over. And we know there’s never
been a time when talking was more important.
We know you’ve heard about changes coming
to Pacific Northwest Bell. And about our coming
separation from AT&T.
We want to talk to you about these changes.
And how they’ll affect you.
First, let’s talk about your telephone service.
You’re used to reliable service. Just try to
remember the last time your phone broke, or your
line was out of order, or you couldn’t get a dial tone.
That’s not going to change.
You can still expect dependable service. One
reason is that you’ll still have the same dedicated
people standing behind it.
( )ne big change has to do with your telephone
itself. Eventually, you won’t get your phone from
us. You’ll still get your service from us, but you’ll be
able to get your phone from different suppliers.
There’s been a lot of talk about rising local
rates. But we can promise you this: Telephone
service definitely won’t be priced out of the reach
of anyone.
It’s a new competitive world for the telecom
munications industiy And that will bring all sorts of
opportunities for you.
More options. New kinds of options. New
ways to make communications more useful.
Changes for the better. But changes,
nevertheless.
So we want you to understand them.
That’s why we’ll be talking with you about all
the coming changes as they happen.
In ads like this. On television and radio.
We know you’ve got questions.
We want to make it easy for you to get
answers. So give us a call. Call 1800 555-5000*
There’ll be somebody to talk to. Somebody
to help you.
Somebody to get you information.
Or just send in this coupon. You’ll get an
answer. And our free booklet, “Let’s Talk About
Change?
Let’s talk.
