| Cleartel Communications Frequently Asked Questions |
Can I keep the same phone number I have now?
As long as the customer is a current customer of a Bell Operating company (or a certified reseller of the Bell Operating Company), customers will be able to retain their existing phone line and number. If the customer’s local provider owns their own facilities and is not a reseller for the Bell Operating Company’s service, Cleartel will not be able to provide them with service.

What kind of taxes will I pay?
All Cleartel customers will pay federal, state and local taxes that are similar to what you paid your previous local and long distance providers.

What is a surcharge and why do I have to pay it?
A surcharge is an amount billed by Cleartel to recover various costs assessed or authorized by governmental and regulatory agencies. These surcharges vary depending on the state in which you live.
|
Why do the taxes and surcharges seem different than my previous phone carrier?
Prior to switching to Cleartel, most customers were most likely charged for local and long distance separately, so they may have appeared on separate bills. Now they receive a combined bill for both local and long distance. All taxes and surcharges for local and long distance services are located in one section, which may make them seem higher.
