Options Available To Avoid Shutoff For An Extended Period
The Prairie Grove Telephone Company offers a vacation rate if you plan to be gone gone for a month or longer.

The following options are available to you to avoid suspension of service during extended absences.

1. Bills coming due during your absence may be paid in advance. The mount of the advanced payment will be based on your average monthly bill for the most recent twelve months. If less than that twelve months of usage history is available, the advanced payment will be based on the number of months of usage history available. If the advanced payment is more than the actual bill for service, the overpayment will be credited to your account. If the advanced payment is less than the actual bill for service, the balance will be carried forward each month until you return.
   Delayed Payment Agreements will be available for underpayment.
   
   
2. You will be given the opportunity to enroll in our bank draft plan. With this plan, your monthly service bill will be paid automatically through your checking or savings account.
   
   
3. You can arrange to have bills coming due during your period of absence mailed to another address or third party.
