General Phone Questions  |  Show/Hide all answers

Do I have to change my phone plan if I already have a local phone connection for my business?

If you are currently a local phone service customer, your account will be transferred over automatically and you will enjoy the same service for a comparable price.

How can I tell what network would work best for my business phone needs?

For fast information transferring and phone service, there are a number of GTA service options. For a small business, the Basic Rate Interface ISDN provides a great connection for an affordable rate. Mid-sized businesses may opt for the Primary Rate Interface ISDN, featuring greater capacity. Larger companies can benefit from a T1 connection, with the ability to host 24 users simultaneously. In addition to a T1 line, corporations may also choose an ISDN option for a reliable backup system.

What are the requirements to apply for business service?

You will need to submit a copy of your business license or articles of incorporation. Additionally, please provide a copy of your lease agreement. Please also present a valid driver’s license or other valid picture ID. A security deposit of $90.00 is required at the time of application. There is a $60.00 processing charge and a $35.00 simple inside wire/jack installation fee, per jack. The processing charge and jack installation fee can be billed to your account. If a phone jack is already in place, there is no installation needed and you can get connected without any additional installation fees.

Can the security deposit be waived?

No. A security deposit is required on a per-line basis.

Is the security deposit refunded back to me?

Security Deposits are refunded at the written request by the customer after 2-years service on good credit. Security Deposits can also be applied to your last month’s bill upon termination.

Is long distance available on my line?

At the time of application, you can choose to allocate your line to a Long Distance Company (Primary Inter-Exchange Carrier - PIC) or choose not to (NO-PIC).
