ATT goes after US WEST:

NEW YORK, Aug 18 (Reuters) - Long-distance phone company
AT&T Corp. T.N said it would publicly detail Wednesday what
it called "poor service" by U S West Inc. USW.N and would
outline its efforts to resolve complaints related to its local
service.
The company said in a statement that it would hold a
telephone conference call at 12:30 p.m. EDT (1630 GMT)
Wednesday to set out its "plan to solve the problems that are
putting AT&T customers and communities at risk."
AT&T said it had been in frequent talks with U S West, a
Baby Bell local phone company, over service quality since 1993.
"Commitments the company has made to improve service have
been routinely broken," the statement said.
"All private negotiations with U S West have been
exhausted."
It added that U S West's planned merger with Qwest
Communications International Inc. QWST.O could worsen the
service problems.
A U S West spokeswoman said the company would have no
reaction until the AT&T call was completed.
