Different Strokes. TDS’ Unique Term Penalty Rules

When you are billed Early Termination Charges on a TDS invoice and need to verify if the Early Termination Liabilities being billed are correct there is a simple way to determine these charges:

1) If the circuit being disconnected is a DS1 and is on a 36 or 60 month term plan; multiply the non-discounted rate (Section 17.3.8(c) of the JSI tariff – TDS Telecom) times the months remaining on the circuit times .15 (Section 7.2.8 (A) (3) of the JSI tariff – TDS Telecom).
2) If the circuit being disconnected is a DS3 and is on a 36 or 60 month term plan; multiply the non-discounted rate (Section 17.3.8(c) of the JSI tariff – TDS Telecom) times the months remaining on the circuit times .50 (Section 7.2.8 (A) (3) of the JSI tariff – TDS Telecom.

Using the non-discounted rate to calculate the term liability is unique from many other tariffs and something of which to be aware.
