Accounts unpaid after the final date authorized by the Telephone Company’s established tariff are overdue and service may be suspended.  Written notice of our intent to disconnect telephone service is mailed to a customer at least 5 days before the scheduled disconnect date.  Once service has been suspended, the entire bill becomes due, in addition to a reconnection charge of $15.00 plus tax. If a written request from a resident subscriber is on file in the local business office when the disconnect notice is mailed, 5 day notification will also be sent to the County Department of Health and Social Services.  A charge of $19.50 will be assessed to the account for checks drawn against insufficient funds.
