GRM Networks ® encourages residents to check their eligibility for reduced-cost broadband service through the federal Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP). The ACP was launched by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to provide a $30 per month benefit to make Internet connectivity more affordable for low income households across the nation (up to $75 per month on tribal lands). Customers who receive Lifeline benefits are also eligible for the ACP and can call their local GRM Networks ® office to receive the additional benefit. Individuals receiving both ACP and Lifeline may apply their ACP benefit to their Lifeline service or to a different service. Individuals receiving the ACP benefit may change plans or opt-out of the ACP at any time, may obtain ACP supported broadband service from any participating provider of their choosing, and may transfer the ACP benefit to another provider at any time. ONLY ONE LIFELINE OR DISABLED SERVICE IS AVAILABLE PER HOUSEHOLD. Affordable Connectivity Program
