Telecommunications billing is responsible for gathering, processing, and posting of all phone related billing on campus.  Below are a few common questions:

What makes up the costs paid by departments?

Departments are charged a line rate that pays for the operations, maintenance and domestic use. They also pay a device charge for the phones that cover replacement parts and a phone refresh which, as currently planned, would occur every 5 years. International calls will be billed to departments at cost. Wiring changes or non-standard requests will be charged at a time and materials (T&M) rate.

What costs are paid centrally?

The capital acquisition and replacement costs for the phone system are being paid centrally as are all emergency phones. All phones in centrally supported/scheduled classrooms and those classrooms designated by STLT are also covered. Departments, schools or colleges who have special use labs and classrooms will be responsible for paying for phones in areas. In addition, all campus telephony infrastructure, network operations and network maintenance are covered centrally.

How much are the monthly line charges?
