ACP Freeze Update: The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has announced that ACP will "freeze" on February 7, 2024 at 8:59 PM Pacific Time (California Time) after which no new ACP enrollments will be accepted at this time.
The FCC says, if the customer is approved for ACP and enrolled with an ISP by the February 7 deadline, then they will receive full 90 days of ACP benefits, taking them through April 2024. However, the FCC also says that full or partial benefits could continue into May or longer, due to claims, refunding, or an extension of funding by Congress.
While no one knows exactly what Congress and the FCC will do, by signing up before February 7, you will: get up to a $30 per month benefit for up to 3 months; and make sure you are registered as a household in need of affordable Internet service for the future. You also may be given more consideration by your ISP for transition to another affordable Internet plan.
FCC Wind-Down Fact Sheet.

CETF @net4allnow has received reports of door-to-door reps who are promising amazing Home Internet deals, pretending to help apply #ACPBenefit, then ask you for a payment or credit card. ACP is real @FCC federal program and real ACP reps will NEVER ask for payment upfront.
#ConsumerAlert: CETF has received reports of individuals posing as #ACPBenefit representatives. Don’t be fooled: real ACP reps will not ask you for sensitive financial information or your credit card number.
CETF ha recibido informes de representantes de puerta a puerta que prometen increíbles ofertas de Internet en el hogar. Estos estafadores pretenderán ayudarlo a solicitar el Programa de #ACPBenefit luego le piden un pago inicial o su número de tarjeta de crédito.

Las empresas poco éticos están engañando a los consumidores para que adopten planes de Internet para el hogar de alto precio, alentándolos a solicitar y utilizar los beneficios de #ACPBenefit. Este programa federal está ayudando a los hogares a reducir el costo de su factura de Internet a tan solo $0. Pero muchos revendedores de servicio de Internet están atrayendo a los consumidores hacia "ofertas especiales" que pueden ser hasta 2 o 3 veces más caras que los planes de Internet residencial diseñados para hogares elegibles para ACP.
#ConsumerAlert:
Unethical businesses are fooling consumers into high-priced Home Internet plans by encouraging them to apply for and use Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP) benefits. This federal program is helping households cut the cost of their internet bill to as low as $0. But many ISP resellers are luring consumers toward “special deals” that can be as much as 2-3x more expensive than home internet plans designed for ACP-eligible households.
Everyone should have access to the Internet. That's why I celebrate the #DigitalEquity Bill of Rights #AB414.
In 2023, #CA Governor Newsom, Legislators, and more than 5,000 organizations and individuals endorsed and mobilized for the passage of AB414.
This landmark legislation makes #California the first in the nation to establish the $DigitalEquity Bill of Rights, based on 10 principles to ensure that broadband is sufficient, equitable, affordable, reliable and ubiquitous for all Californians.
Californians should have the right to reliable, robust, and affordable Internet access. Digital access is a 21st Century Civil Right.
