  the public service law, that provides telephone service to customers  in
  New  York shall, at its option: a. allow a customer to use a modified or
  alternative name for a directory  listing  or  b.  waive  the  otherwise
  applicable  charges  for  a  non-published  telephone listing, where the
  customer requests protection of its  identity  in  connection  with  the
  customer's purchase of telephone service and the customer is a victim of
  domestic  violence,  as  defined in section four hundred fifty-nine-a of
  the social services law, and for whose benefit any order of  protection,
  other  than  a temporary order of protection, has been issued by a court

  applicable  cable  television  company.  Any  customer   requesting   an
  accommodation  pursuant  to  this  section may also request and shall be
  provided, at no cost to the customer,  a  new  telephone  number  within
  fifteen days from the request for such accommodation.
