What is Lifeline Support?

Lifeline Support is a federal program that subsidizes residential local telephone or Internet service for income-eligible customers at their primary residence. GoNetspeed participates in limited areas of the Alabama, Maine, Massachusetts, Missouri, Vermont and West Virginia service territories.

Qualifying customers receive a $9.25 discount on their telephone or internet service at their primary residence. Lifeline participants may also qualify for free toll blocking to help control long-distance usage. Customers using this offering can still use pre-paid calling cards or dial-around services to place long-distance calls from their homes.

Only one Lifeline Program discount is available per household, a household being defined as any individual or group of individuals who live together at the same address and share income and expenses. The Lifeline Program benefit is non-transferable. Consumers who willfully make false statements in order to obtain the discount can be punished by fine or imprisonment or can be barred from the Lifeline Program.
