  "statement": "Where a toll-free verification is submitted on behalf of an end business, the ISV or reseller name must be disclosed.",
  "rationale": "Toll-free verification asks who is filing as well as who is being verified, because the reviewer needs to know whether an unfamiliar contact in the submission is the business or its vendor. Leaving it out makes the ISV's own details look like inconsistencies in the end business's record, which is a much worse reading than the truth.",
