MCL 484.2312c Use of payphone or toll service; receipt of rate quote; exception; "consumer" defined.

484.2312c. Use of payphone or toll service; receipt of rate quote; exception; "consumer" defined. Sec. 312c. (1) Before connecting any call, the operator service provider that owns or operates the payphone or contracts to provide toll service for the payphone provider shall at no charge disclose, audibly and distinctly, how the consumer may receive a rate quote. (2) To receive a rate quote, the consumer shall have the option of either pressing a sequence of not more than 2 keys or staying on the line for assistance. (3) The consumer shall not be assessed any charge for the use of the payphone or toll service if the consumer terminates the call after receiving the rate quote. (4) This section does not apply to calls made by a consumer utilizing his or her toll provider of choice by dialing the provider's access service method. (5) As used in this section, "consumer" means a person initiating a telephone call using an operator service. In collect calling arrangements handled by an operator service provider, the term consumer includes the party on the terminating end of the call. For bill-to-third party calling arrangements handled by an operator service provider, the term consumer includes the party to be billed for the call if that party is contacted by the operator service provider to secure billing approval.
