NOTICE TO H&B COMMUNICATIONS
TELEPHONE CUSTOMERS

Beginning January 1, 2021 the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) will increase the Federal Universal Service Charge (FUSC) from 27.1% to 31.8% on your monthly Interstate Access Charges.
The FUSC surcharge factor recovers the costs associated with H&B Communications’ contributions to the Federal Universal Fund program.  This government mandated program is designed to help keep local telephone service rates affordable for all customers in all areas of the United States.
