If you accept collect calls on your extension or make a call while off campus and bill it to your extension, you will be billed a five dollar ($5.00) service fee for each call in addition to the cost of the call. This charge is necessary to cover the extra cost burdens of Bridgewater College and Ntelos because of the limitations of Ntelos' billing in conjunction with the College's PBX switch.

Courtesy phones are located near the main lobby in all campus buildings. These courtesy phones allow calls to on-campus extensions, to local off-campus numbers, and to toll-free off-campus numbers, including calling card calls. To place an emergency call from a courtesy phone, dial 9 - 911.

If the 20^th falls on a Saturday or Sunday, you will have until 4:00 p.m. the following Monday to pay your phone bill.

If you fail to pay your bill after being deactivated, the outstanding amount of the phone bill will be attached to your student account.
