wish would stop, tell the caller to place you on their "Do Not Call" list.
Don't be afraid to interrupt the caller and tell them what you want, and don't be afraid
to hang up. Click here to see more information on
marketing and survey calls.
3. Telephone Bills
Telephone bills are mailed so that you should receive them on the first of each month.
The bill is due when you receive it and is considered delinquent if it is not paid
by the 10th of the month. If we have not received payment by the 20th of the month,
we will require prompt payment the next month. So during the next month, if the
entire bill is not paid by the 10th, we will send out a disconnect notice and disconnect
your telephone service if full payment is not received.
Your are billed in advance for telephone service. Any bill for toll is after the
calls are made. New service and disconnected service customers pay only for the days
they use the service. Contact the business office if you have any questions.
4. Security Deposit
We will check the credit worthiness of all new customers. We will use this
information in deciding if a deposit will be required. If a customer using our
service does not have a deposit, but has difficulty paying their telephone bill, we may
require a deposit for their account. Deposits earn interest, and will be refunded
with interest after a period of satisfactory bill payments.
