Setting Customer Expectations It is important to note that ACN DigitalTalk Express Phone Service (either the phone system or adapter) must be available at the customer’s location in order to include the High Speed Internet bundle. Service and speed availability will be determined after the order is submitted – this can take up to 7 business days. – The customer may decide to cancel the High Speed Internet portion of the order in the event the speed desired is not available. The Install Team will process such requests prior to the service being installed. 17

Setting Customer Expectations ACN DigitalTalk Express Phone Service will be activated once High Speed Internet availability has been established.
