ALTER INDEX ALL ON dbo.CustomerContact

will return an error, because it misses REBUILD or REORGANIZE. It should be

ALTER INDEX ALL ON dbo.CustomerContact REBUILD

Shouldn't the last command in the CREATE INDEX commands have been

CREATE INDEX IX_CustomerContact_CustomerPhone

ON dbo.CustomerContact (phone);

RBAR is pronounced "ree-bar" and is a "Modenism" for Row-By-Agonizing-Row.
First step towards the paradigm shift of writing Set Based code:
________Stop thinking about what you want to do to a ROW... think, instead, of what you want to do to a COLUMN.

Change is inevitable... Change for the better is not.
