Telephone Safety The telephone is one of the safest appliances in your home or office. There are, however, a few situations where a telephone user needs to be cautious: • Use of the telephone near water. Do not use the telephone while you are in the bathtub, shower or pool. Immersion of the telephone or handset in water could cause an electrical shock. • Use of the telephone during an electrical storm . Avoid using the telephone during an electrical storm in your immediate area. Calls of an urgent nature should be brief. The system uses protective measures to limit abnormal electrical surges from entering your home, but absolute protection is impossible. There is a small risk of receiving a dangerous electrical shock through the phone. • Use of the telephone to report a gas leak. To report a gas leak, you should not use a telephone in the vicinity of the leak until the leak is repaired. The telephone contains electrical contacts that could generate a tiny spark when you lift the handset and dial. If the gas concentration is high enough, there could be an explosion.

Proof of income is required. Call our office for qualifying income levels and documentation requirements. Lifeline is a federal government assistance benefit that provides a monthly discount on home or mobile telephone services. Only ONE Lifeline discount is allowed per household. Members of a household are not permitted to receive Lifeline service from multiple companies. Lifeline is a non-transferable benefit. Willfully making false statements to obtain the benefit can result in fines, imprisonment, de-enrollment, and/or being barred from the program. Violation of the one-per-household limitation constitutes a violation of the FCC’s rules and will result in de-enrollment and, potentially, prosecution

by the U.S. government. Lifeline is a federal government benefit program and only qualified persons may participate. Lifeline (for new or existing customers): $1.00 per month recurring charge for telephone service on one residential line. Free Full-Toll Blocking if requested.

For full information and updates about Lifeline services, please visit our website bristolbay.com and click on the Lifeline tab. Affordable Connectivity Program is a FCC program to help families and households struggling to afford internet service during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Telephone Trouble

Hello......Hello?.... Why Doesn’t My Phone Work? Problems with your phone service can be caused by several different things. The problem could be in our lines or switch, OR it could be a problem with your wiring or one of your phones. When you call the office with a problem, we will do our best to find and clear the trouble. If it is in our switch or buried cable, there will be no charges to repair (unless, of course, you dug in the ground without requesting a locate and hit the cable). If the trouble is with your inside wiring or one of your jacks or phones, you will be charged for the work we do. To save yourself time and costly repair charges, we encourage you to attempt to isolate problems before calling for repairs (see next page).

Telephone Inside Wiring

Outside Buried Telephone Service Wire

Telephone Wiring and Equipment Repair – Federal deregulation of inside wire and jacks requires customers to assume responsibility for the maintenance and repair of all “inside” wiring. Inside wiring includes any telephone wiring, either inside or outside of your home or

business, which runs from the Telephone Network Interface (TNI) to your telephone jacks or equipment. The TNI is usually located outside of your building in a single family home or single business location, and inside of your building in a multi-family dwelling or multi-business location, such as an apartment or an office building.

Telephone Trouble

Indoor Testing – To see if the problem is in your telephone or wall jack: 1. Check each telephone to be sure that a receiver is not off the hook. 2. Check both ends of your handset cord and wall cord to make sure they are plugged in tight and that there are no loose connections or exposed or frayed wires. 3. Take the phone to a neighbor’s house to see if it works there. 4. If you have a cordless phone, unplug its telephone cord and its electric cord. Then check other phones in the house that are not cordless to see if they work. 5. Take a working telephone to each phone jack to see if you can hear dial tone. Outdoor Testing – To see if dial tone is coming to your house: 1. Take a working telephone outdoors to the Telephone Network Interface (TNI) box. This is a grey or beige box on the outside of your house where the telephone wires enter the building. Use a screwdriver to open the box. (See figure 1.) 2. Unplug the cord from the test jack and plug in your telephone there. (See figure 2.) 3. If you do not hear dial tone, the trouble is the responsibility of the telephone company. Call the Business Office to report the trouble. The repairs will be made at no charge to you. 4. If you hear dial tone, you may assume that the problem is in your inside wiring. You may attempt to fix the problem yourself, hire someone to do it for you, or call the telephone company to fix it. We will charge you for labor and materials.

Telephone Trouble

Radio Interference Radio interference may occasionally cause buzzing or humming in your cordless handset, or clicking noises in the base unit. This interference is caused by external sources such as television, refrigerator, vacuum cleaner, fluorescent lighting, or a VHF or sideband radio. Check around your home to see what appliances may be causing the problem. We recommend that the base of the cordless phone not be plugged into a circuit that also powers a major appliance, because of the potential for interference. Some cordless telephones operate at frequencies that may cause interference to nearby televisions and VCRs. To minimize or prevent such interference, the base of the cordless telephone should not be placed on or near a TV or VCR. Other Problems The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has granted the telephone Cooperative the right to disconnect service in the event that your customer-owned telephone causes problems on the telephone line. This is to protect other consumers from interruption of telephone service.

Handling Unwanted Phone Calls

Telemarketers If you don’t want to talk to a telemarketer (salesperson), just say “no thank you” and hang up. You can contact individual companies one by one and ask them to put you on their “do not call” lists, or you have these other options to prevent unwanted calls: National Do-Not-Call Registry You can register (or revoke) your objection to receiving telephone solicitations by calling 1-888-382-1222 (TTY 1-866-290-4236) or via the internet at www.donotcall.gov . This is a free service. The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) manages the registry and the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) enforces it. The registration is good for five years. Telemarketing companies who are selling goods or services are not allowed to call registered customers unless you did business with them within the past 18 months or made an inquiry or submitted an application. However, if a consumer asks a particular company not to call, the company may not call, even if there is an established business relationship. The registry does not limit calls by political organizations, charities or telephone surveyors. Telephone Courtesy and Privacy

Callers should promptly identify themselves and respect your privacy. Here are some general suggestions for uncomfortable situations: 1. If the caller asks for information, do not cooperate until he/she has been identified. 2. Teach your children not to give any information to strangers. 3. Never reveal the fact that you are alone. 4. If you are not home, your children should say “My parents can’t come to the phone right now. May I take a message for them?” Handling Obscene and Crank Calls Federal and state laws make it a crime to make harass ing, obscene, threatening or anonymous phone calls. If you receive such a call, follow these suggestions: 1. Hang up if the caller doesn’t speak the second time you say hello. 2. Hang up at the first obscene word, or if you hear abusive, harassing or threatening talk. 3. If problem calls persist, contact local law enforcement. 4. Report a threatening call to local law enforce ment immediately. 5. If you don’t know the caller, follow the steps on the next page to trap and trace the call .

15

Handling Unwanted Phone Calls

Call Trace To trace a nuisance call, do the following: 1. When you receive a call you want to trace, replace the handset. 2. Lift the handset and press *57 . 3. Replace the handset. 4. Write down the date and time of the nuisance or threatening call. 5. Call the Business Office during normal business hours and report the date and time to the Custom Service Representative. Example of information the Customer Service Representative will need: “My name is Jane Doe. My phone number is 246-9999. I received a nuisance call January 21, 2022 at 2:00 a.m. I live in South Naknek.” BBTC will then be able to look in our maintenance log and identify where the call came from. We will inform you that we have or have not successfully trapped the call. If we successfully trapped the call, the next step is for you to contact law enforcement. We cannot release information about the caller to you, but law enforcement can issue a subpoena for the phone records.

Long Distance Information

Long Distance Carriers Bristol Bay Telephone Cooperative’s customers may set up a long distance plan with one of the following carriers:

GCI* 1-800-800-4800 10-10-077

EXCEL** TELECOMMUNICATIONS 1-800-875-9235 ext. 0 10-10-752

If your carrier is experiencing technical difficulty, you can “dial around” by using the 10-10 number of another carrier, followed by the phone number you are calling. You will be billed separately by the other carrier. You may opt to have NO long distance carrier if you do not need the ability to direct-dial long distance calls. This “no-PIC” option means you would have to use a calling card whenever you place a long distance call. Contact the Business Office for details.
