Billing Department News

Our billing department provides our customers full access to their accounts and invoices via our portal on the website. When you go to our website, look for the “Customer Portal” in the top right hand corner, click, enter your account name and password and you are in. In your account you can see all your services, communicate with departments and even see and pay your monthly invoices. Do you prefer a paper invoice? No problem, just open the invoice and click “CTRL-P” and you have your invoice printed. Remember all invoices are due upon receipt and to avoid suspended service, ask about keeping a credit card on file to save you the trouble of having to remember to pay your invoices.
