Segra announced today it is joining other carriers and honoring the FCC's (News - Alert) "Keep Americans Connected Pledge" to ensure connectivity to those customers negatively impacted by the Coronavirus.

For the next 60 days, Segra, and its subsidiary Lumos Networks, will not terminate service to residential or small business customers because of their inability to pay their bills due to the disruptions caused by the coronavirus pandemic. Segra and Lumos Networks will also waive any late fees that customers incur because of financial hardship related to the coronavirus pandemic.

"Segra understands the critical importance of staying connected and we do not want any financial hardship brought on by the coronavirus pandemic to disrupt broadband or telephone connectivity for our customers," said Tim Biltz, Segra CEO. "Segra has been closely monitoring the impact of the coronavirus and we are focused on the wellness of our eployees and customers. We have established a task force of executive-level management to manage our contingency and business continuity plans as the situation changes and we are dedicated to ensuring that there are no interruptions in our service or support."

As businesses allow more employees to stay connected remotely, Segra is ready to work with customers who may require network upgrades or additional communication services.
