disconnected students who live in areas served by Suddenlink in

to school closures and who do not currently have home internet
access, Suddenlink is offering its Altice Advantage 30 Mbps broadband
solution FREE for 60 days to new customer households within their
service area footprint.
Eligible

to enroll.
At
the end of the 60-day period, Suddenlink’s Altice Advantage plan of

There
would be no charge for canceling service at the end of 60-days should
the new customer elect not to continue.

will be no charges during the 60-day window. Beyond that, if the
customer chooses to continue Altice Advantage service, there
will be a $14.99 monthly charge + applicable taxes, but no fees would
