AENEAS BILLING POLICIES
DEPOSITS AND ADVANCE PAYMENTS: All new service orders are subject to a credit check. Based on the results of the credit check, a $100 minimum deposit plus any install/set-up fees will be required in advance of service commencing. The deposit does not cover the first month of service. Installation costs and/or switching fees must also be paid in advance at the time of deposit payment, but are non-refundable.
Customer's deposit is available for application toward service charges at any time after six months of good payment history. Customer must initiate request for deposit to be applied to service charges. Deposit remains in reserve on customer's account until customer's services with Aeneas end. If customer fails to initiate deposit application toward service charges on their account, customer has six months after end of service in which to request refund of held deposit. Deposits not requested within six months will be assessed an administrative charge equal to said deposit.
BILLING: Unless otherwise agreed in a customer contract with
Aeneas, we will send an itemized statement to the email address
you specify each month. For a small charge of $2.00/month, we
will prepare and snail-mail a paper copy of your statement to
the address you specify via the US Postal Service. Payment is
due by the due date posted on the bill.
