7820.2700 DISPUTES.

Whenever the customer advises the utility's designated representative prior to the disconnection of service that any part of the billing as rendered or any part of the service is in dispute, the utility shall investigate the dispute promptly, advise customer of investigation and its result, attempt to resolve dispute, and withhold disconnection of service until the investigation is completed and the customer is informed of the findings in writing.

Upon the findings of the utility, the customer must submit payment in full of any bill which is due. If the dispute is not resolved to the satisfaction of the customer, the customer must submit the entire payment and may designate the disputed portion to be placed in escrow to the utility. Such payment shall be called an escrow payment.
