High Speed Internet Agreement

The VTel Service Guarantee

Once yearly, if you feel that we could ever have done a better job serving you (for any reason), simply let us know and we will apply a credit for one month of the affected service. We ask only that you tell us how we could have done a better job.

We welcome your calls as a chance to improve. We want you to think of VTel as “the best service I have ever encountered”.

The VTel Price Guarantee

If you ever learn of a lower price tell us, we’ll send $10 to thank you, and we’ll match the lower price or end any contract with no penalty. We’ve been serving Vermonters since 1890. We’ve never seen a lower price we can’t beat.

Surge Protector Use Required

You must use a surge protector.

Electric surge protectors are available at big box electronic stores or even online at Amazon, as well as many hardware and drug stores. If VTel’s Internet router or other equipment in your home is destroyed because you didn’t use a surge protector you will be billed replacement cost. Read more about our policy on surge protectors here.

VTel’s caps for Internet usage exist, and will vary based on VTel’s determination of what is fair and reasonable; (B) VTel Internet or VTelevision users cannot re-sell VTel Internet or VTelevision to 3rd parties, whether via WiFi, wireless, wire, or other means, without written consent from VTel. (C) No dwelling unit or business can knowingly share its VTel Internet or VTelevision connection with other dwelling units or businesses without written consent from VTel. (D) VTel Unlimited Internet using DSL or GigE at costs of $9.95 to $99.95 per month is for home use and small business use with ten (10) or fewer Internet devices on an enterprise-wide basis.
