You agree to pay all charges incurred through access of your account from date of inception through and including the date that you notify us to cancel and close your account. You must notify us in writing if you decide to terminate your account with us. We will acknowledge your notice, and you must keep our acknowledgement as proof of same. All account cancellations must be made by the last day of the month. Any cancellations received during a monthly billing cycle will be effective the last day of that monthly billing cycle, and payment in full for that month is expected. (Note: aDSL Accounts are payable until the Termination Date that is assigned by the Telephone Company. It can take up to 2 weeks for them to cancel aDSL Service.) Note: All Wholesale aDSL Services are subject to a 12 month contract, either from time of signup as a wholesale account, or, in the case of Retail accounts that are converted to wholesale, then 12 months from the date of conversion. All accounts automatically renew to the next billing period at the same rate and period as the previous billing period unless we are notified in writing of a change. The service is considered a subscription utility and, as such, is generally not stopped and started for equipment failures, vacations, etc., just as electricity, telephone and cable are not generally stopped and restarted. If you choose to disconnect your service during an equipment repair a reconnection charge will apply. The right to use the service is not transferable. Payment is due upon receipt of invoice. Accounts are in default if payment is not received within 10 days after date of invoice. Accounts in default may are subject to a late fee. If your check is returned to us unpaid you are immediately in default and $30.00 will be added to your account balance. You are also subject to having your account electronically debited for the amount of your check plus the maximum amount allowed by Ohio law. This is performed by FedChex, Inc. 877-326-4662. Accounts in default may have their service interrupted. Such interruption does not relieve you from the obligation to pay the monthly charge. In the event we interrupt your service due to non-payment a reconnection charge of $5.00 will be applied to your account upon reconnection. (The reconnection charge for DSL is $25.00) All accounts in default for more than 30 days will be automatically submitted to our collection agency. A Collection charge will be added at such time, not to exceed 33% of the principal. This is in addition to previously incurred late fees.
