Frequently Asked Questions
What is a "Partial Month" service charge?
A "Partial Month" is the amount billed for services between the
installation or service change date and the next billing date.
Statements reflect billing for services one month in advance, which
may cause "Partial Month" service charges to appear on your first
statement following installation or requested service changes.
What is the Local Broadcast Retransmission Fee?
A portion of the amount paid to local broadcast stations so we may
retransmit their signals to you.
What is the Federal Telecom Relay Service (TRS) and
Administration Fee?
All carriers providing interstate telecommunications must support TRS,
which enables telephone conversations between people with
speech/hearing impairments and those without. The Federal TRS
surcharge is assessed as a percentage of interstate toll charges.
What is the Gross Receipts Tax? This tax is on gross receipts
derived from the furnishing of telephone services at the rate of 4%.
The service provider collects the tax and reports the collections
annually to the Department of Revenue.
What are State and Local Taxes?
These taxes are mandated by state, local and municipal governments
on goods and services.
If you plan on moving, please call Midcontinent three weeks prior to
