  • Docket No. 06-152 (filed Sept. 16, 2006) (suggesting that process for filing hearing aid compatibility complaints be made more consumer-friendly by making it more similar to the process for Section 255 complaints). Under the hearing aid compatibility complaint process, consumers are responsible for identifying the agent designated by manufacturers or service providers for service of complaints under 47 C.F.R. § 68.418(b). We note that the Commission extended its Part 68, Subpart E rules to allow consumers to file informal complaints under those rules if they find that wireless service providers or manufacturers of wireless equipment are not complying with its hearing aid compatibility rules.

AAPD suggested that the hearing aid compatibility process should be more similar to the process for determining the designated agent for filing Section 255 complaints. AAPD suggested that the Commission require the same procedures as those applicable to Section 255 complaints to be followed by manufacturers subject to the Commission's
