In
an email sent to company employees on Thursday, Glen Post said
he does not agree with the attorney general's claims of being
"uncooperative" pertaining to the ongoing investigation. The
email statement was seen by Reuters on Friday.
The lawsuit, filed earlier this month, alleges CenturyLink often
refused to honor the lower prices customers had initially been
given by sales agents, saying that they were misquoted or did
not qualify for promotional discounts.
"We take these allegations very seriously and are diligently
investigating them," Post said in the email.
The telecommunications company said it has hired law firm
O'Melveny & Myers to conduct an independent review.
As at the last close of $23.37, shares of the company have
fallen 2.4 percent year-to-date.
