Get a Discount on Your TDS Service If you think you can’t afford service, think again. You could qualify for a discount on your service through a low-income telephone assistance program called Lifeline Assistance. Lifeline Assistance credits reduce monthly service charges. Who’s Eligible? If you have a household income that is at or below 135% of the Federal Poverty Guidelines or if you participate in one of the following programs, you may be eligible to participate: • Medicaid • Food Stamps (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP)) • Supplemental Security Income (SSI) • Federal Public Housing Assistance (FPHA) • Veteran’s Pension and Survivor’s Pension Benefits To apply for Lifeline, you must apply to the Lifeline National Verifier at www.checklifeline.org. You may also print an application from that website. If you have questions about applying, to check eligibility or to request an application, visit www.checklifeline.org or call the National Verifier at 1-800-234-9473. If you qualify for Lifeline, you may also be eligible for the FCC’s low-income internet assistance program called Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP). The ACP is a government program that helps qualifying consumers pay for internet service. If you qualify for ACP, you may receive up to a $30/month discount on your internet service. For more information about ACP, visit https://www.affordableconnectivity.gov/. Lifeline and the Affordable Connectivity Program are government assistance programs. The programs are non-transferable. Only eligible consumers may enroll in either program. There is a limit of one discount per household, per program. Lifeline credits on internet service are only available where minimum supported broadband service is available. If the household becomes ineligible for Lifeline and/or ACP, the household will be subject to TDS’ regular rates, terms, and conditions. For more information from TDS about these programs, visit https://tdstelecom.com/lifeline.html or tdstelecom.com/acp, or call 1-888-CALL-TDS. 145539 209916WI/11-23/12780 Get a Discount on Your TDS Service If you think you can’t afford service, think again.
