United Communications Supports the Keep Americans Connected Pledge

 

Chapel Hill, Tenn., March 18, 2020 – United Communications is committed to ensuring access to fast, reliable telephone and internet service as our communities deal with the consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic. We plan to maintain normal operations so that our customers can work from home and students can learn remotely. Unlike many other providers, United has always offered residential internet with no contracts and no data caps so that you can utilize our network without fear of high overage costs.

 

We are extending our assistance to our residential and small business customers by supporting the “Keep Americans Connected Pledge” to not terminate service because of their inability to pay their bills due to circumstances caused by the COVID-19 crisis. United will also waive any late fees that any residential or small business customer incurs because of economic impact specific to the virus. This 60-day commitment reinforces the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) desire to ensure broadband or telephone connectivity.

 

“United is a key member of the Middle Tennessee community, and as our mission states, we enrich our communities and the lives of our neighbors through reliable connections and passionate service,” said William Bradford, President & CEO, United Communications. “This Pledge rolls right into helping the communities we serve and improving the lives of our customers. Whether it’s keeping Tennesseans employed or building out our grant projects to underserved areas, it’s important for us to step up and help mitigate the ill effects of this pandemic.” For any of our customers having a difficult time due to this issue, you can contact our customer support team.
