ACCOUNT ACTIVATION

Individuals applying for internet service must be at least 18 years of age and applying for service in his or her name. Unless the customer requests a specific activation date, all accounts will be activated per Lakeland’s schedule. Billing for the account starts on the activation date. The initial activation charge does not include any wiring, jacks, labor, ethernet cables or miscellaneous equipment. Any technical assistance at the customer premise after the initial activation is subject to regular Lakeland Communication’s tariffed charges.

SERVICE AVAILABILITY

Lakeland provides service 24/7, but the service is provided “as is”. Lakeland services may be interrupted for several reasons, including but not limited to malfunctions, maintenance, and improvement or as required to protect network resources in the event of malfunctions or misuse. Advance notification of any such interruption of service may not be provided. In case of an unexpected outage, Lakeland will work to correct the problem as soon as possible. In no event, will Lakeland be responsible or liable for damages or loss of profits due to use or the  inability to use Lakeland’s services. I agree that any outage of the system will only be refunded if that outage is for a period of more than 24 consecutive hours. The refund would be calculated on a percentage of the monthly package fee for the number of days out of service. Certain Internet content may contain language or pictures which some individuals may find offensive, inflammatory or of an adult nature. Lakeland does not endorse such materials and disclaims any and all liability for their content.

CUSTOMER PROPRIETARY NETWORK INFORMATION PRIVACY NOTICE

It is Lakeland Communication's responsibility under federal law to protect the confidentiality of your Customer Proprietary Network Information (CPNI). CPNI is any information that is not publicly available and includes the type of phone service you receive from Lakeland Communications, number of lines, amount of usage and calling detail. As a customer, you have the right at any time to restrict the use of CPNI for maketing purposes. If you choose not to premit us to disclose your CPNI with Lakeland Communications and our affiliates, you may opt-out of receiving such information. The services you are currently receiving will not be affected if you op-out, however, restricting CPNI may make you ineligible to receive information from Lakeland Communications and our affiliates about new products and services, packaged offerings and various promotions. If you DO NOT want us to share your CPNI with Lakeland Communications and our affiliates  you can call our business office at 715-825-2171 within thirty (30) days. Once you opt-out you will remain on this list until you request otherwise.

AT THE SOLE DISCRETION OF LAKELAND, VIOLATIONS OF ANY OF THE ABOVE REGULATIONS/POLICIES MAY RESULT IN TERMINATION OF SERVICE.

If a service call is required after activation of working service, a dispatch fee along with professional tech service & materials fee will be charged if the problem is determined to be the customers: Home visit/consultation billed at a $60.00 dispatch fee plus $110.00 per hour professional tech service & materials. I understand these charges: 

 

The package fee is billed one month in advance. Modem, activation, package fee and any labor may be due before service is installed. Speeds listed are not guaranteed. We highly recommend that the customer use a surge protector on all electronic devices to protect against power surges and lightning. Lakeland will not warranty a device (such as a modem, router etc.) that has been hit by lightning unless warranty is purchased per device. You may otherwise be able to pursue coverage of the device with the manufacturer of the surge protection that you were using at the time the damage occurred. Any work, wiring or maintenance done at the customer premise will be billed at: $110.00 per hour, material and wiring charges, along with a $60.00 dispatch fee. Pricing may increase with programming fees.
