You may apply for the Services online at www.anthembroadband.com. Although Anthem Broadband hopes to make Anthem Broadband available to as many people as possible, as quickly as it can, Anthem Broadband reserves the right to determine whether any Services are made available to a particular address.
If Anthem Broadband determines that the address at which you receive Services is not a residential address, Anthem Broadband may require you to transition to another type of account in order to continue receiving the Services. This transition may include an increase in any fee for the Services.
You agree to provide Anthem Broadband with all necessary access to the premises at the address where you sign up for Services to be installed (referred to as “your residence” below) so that the equipment necessary for you to receive the Services may be installed and configured. You agree that Anthem Broadband may install equipment on the exterior and interior of your residence (including but not limited to laying underground conduit and/or affixing equipment to the outside of your residence) at any reasonable location. You also agree that Anthem Broadband may use, and that you have the necessary permissions to approve Anthem Broadband’s use of, existing facilities, including existing wiring in and around your residence, to complete the installation services and to maintain or upgrade the Services as necessary.
If you rent or otherwise do not own your residence, you represent and warrant that you are authorized by the property owner to order Anthem Broadband installation, and you acknowledge that you may be asked to provide written evidence that you have received all permissions necessary for Anthem Broadband to perform an installation of the Services. If Anthem Broadband incurs any costs or losses, including attorneys’ fees, because you did not get the necessary authorization(s) for Anthem Broadband to install the equipment required for the Services, you are responsible for reimbursing Anthem Broadband for those costs or losses.
Acceptance of these Terms & Conditions does not guarantee that Anthem Broadband will install or provide any Services. We may need a separate agreement or easement with you or your landlord in order to install the Services.
Note that the Over-the-Air Reception Devices (OTARD) limits what restrictions a landlord, HOA, or other entity can place on your ability to install internet service.
You agree to pay any and all applicable fees for the Services you purchase, whether ordered by you, an Authorized User, or any third party with access to the Services pursuant to your Anthem Broadband account.
· You agree to pay all charges incurred. Charges shall be invoiced monthly and payment shall be due 20 days from the date of the invoice.
· You will pay all sales and use taxes, as well as duties or levies, including any long-distance phone charges arising in connection with the Services.
If any instrument received in payment is returned to Anthem Broadband unpaid, your account will be considered to be in default, and in addition to the amount past due and any late payment fees due, you will be subject to any applicable Anthem Broadband returned-check charge. You will also be subject to pay Anthem Broadband its reasonable expenses, including attorney fees and collection agency fees, incurred in enforcing its rights under any Anthem Broadband policy.
Your contract with Anthem Broadband commences upon activation of service by Anthem Broadband and remains in effect for the selected rate plan period. After the term specified in the contract has expired, the connection for the Services will automatically renew on a month-to-month basis at the customer’s current plan rate, unless terminated in accordance with these Terms & Conditions.
You may terminate this agreement upon thirty (30) days advance written notice by completing the cancelation form found on the Anthem Broadband website. If you agreed to a service plan that had a minimum term commitment and terminates prior to completion of that term, an early termination fee will be applied to the account. The termination fee will be equal to 50% of the monthly plan’s price multiplied by the number of remaining months in the agreement, or the price of installation that was waived at time of signup, whichever is less. Anthem Broadband shall have the right to suspend or terminate this agreement at any time without prior notice. You also agree that Anthem Broadband has the right to delete all data, files, or other information that resides or is stored on Anthem Broadband’s hardware, if your account with Anthem Broadband is terminated, for any reason, by either Anthem Broadband or you.
For purposes of this Section 11, the term “information” means material of any type capable of being posted or transmitted on or through the Services, including material in print, graphic or pictorial form. You shall not restrict or inhibit any other user from accessing and enjoying the Services. You shall not post or transmit any unlawful, obscene or pornographic information of any kind including and not limited to any transmissions constituting or encouraging conduct that would constitute a criminal offense, give rise to civil liability, or otherwise violate any local, state, federal, or international law.

Services are intended for the personal use of you and other occupants and guests within your residence. You agree not to resell or repackage the Services or otherwise make them available to anyone outside of your residence.
