(4) (a) If a customer believes that an amount of tax or assignment of place of primary use or taxing jurisdiction included on a bill is erroneous, the customer shall notify the home service provider in writing. The customer shall include in the written notification the street address for the customer's place of primary use, the account name and number for which the customer seeks a correction of the tax assignment, a description of the error asserted by the customer, and any other information that the home service provider reasonably requires to process the request. Within 60 days of receiving a notice, the home service provider shall review its records and the electronic database or enhanced zip code used to determine the customer's taxing jurisdiction. If the review shows that the amount of tax, assignment of place of primary use, or taxing jurisdiction is in error, the home service provider shall correct the error and refund or credit the amount of tax erroneously collected from the customer for a period of up to 2 years. If the review shows that the amount of tax, assignment of place of primary use, or taxing jurisdiction is correct, the home service provider shall provide a written explanation to the customer.
(b) The procedures set forth in subsection (4)(a) are the first course of remedy available to customers seeking correction of assignment of place of primary use or taxing jurisdiction or seeking a refund of or other compensation for taxes erroneously collected by the home service provider, and a cause of action based upon a dispute arising from those taxes does not accrue, to the extent otherwise permitted by law, until a customer has reasonably exercised the rights and procedures set forth in this subsection (4).
