What am I billed for each month?

Internet, Phone and Cable TV services are provided on a month-to-month basis. Monthly service charges, which include any equipment lease fees and any installation charges, are normally payable either before or when service is installed. After that, we will bill you each month in advance for service. Your bill will include a list of your services, package or special offer discounts, payments, credits and any applicable fees and taxes.

How will I be billed each month?

Every month, Sparklight will send a bill by mail or electronically, whichever option you choose. Payment options include Auto Pay (automatically withdrawn), online payment, pay by phone, in-person payment at one of the approved payment centers, or mail in.

Below are the billing cycles you can choose.

For each month:

When is my bill due?

Payment in full is due to Sparklight by the ''Due By'' date indicated on your statement. If full payment is not received by this date, your bill will become past due and may be subject to additional fees such as late payment charges, reactivation fees, returned check fees, or subject to disconnection of service.

What if I miss the payment due date or do not pay the full amount?

Missing a payment will subject your account to late, reconnect or termination fees as well as disabling and/or disconnecting of all services. Please call Sparklight Billing Support at 877-692-2253 from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday, to discuss late or missed payment options.

When do service changes show up on my bill?

Sparklight has simplified how bills are calculated when customers make changes to their services. For most service changes, prorated adjustments (partial-month charges or credits) no longer apply. Instead, changes are reflected using full-month billing, which helps keep statements cleaner and easier to understand.

Here are a few common examples:

• Upgrades: You can enjoy your upgraded service right away, and the new rate starts with your next billing period.
• Downgrades: Your new rate starts with your next billing period, and you keep your current service level through the end of the period you’ve already been billed for.
• Disconnects: You can choose the day your service ends. Since partial-month credits are not offered, you can also choose to keep service active through the final day of the period you’ve already been billed for.

Exceptions: Some items may still prorate, depending on the product and your location (for example, certain video services due to state requirements, TechAssist products, and some discount programs).

What are the franchise fees on my bill?

Sparklight is required to pay Franchise Fees to provide cable TV services in your area. These charges are detailed as a separate line item on your bill. The fee calculation is regulated by Federal Communications Commission (FCC) rules and federal law. Standard city, county or state taxes vary by location. The tax amount may change and is based on your service and equipment. The FCC tax is paid to the Federal Communications Commission.

How do I handle a disagreement with any portion of my bill?

If you disagree or have questions about any portion of your bill, immediately contact Sparklight to discuss your concerns. Please contact at 877-692-2253, between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. Monday through Friday.
