New LifeLine Procedures for General Order 153 Prevent Backbilling:

A new decision adopted a pre-qualification requirement for the program. Under this process, a new applicant for the program receives the discounted LifeLine rate for telephone service AFTER the Certifying Agent determines eligibility. The difference in this process and the old process is that new applicants will no longer be able to call the carrier and immediately be placed on LifeLine. The new process should prevent any backbilling by carriers if a new applicant is denied.

Required Documents

In order to qualify for California LifeLine based on household income, you will need to provide documents proving that your total household income is at or below the income maximum for your household size. Income documents include:

· Prior year's state, federal, or tribal tax return

· Income statements or paycheck stubs for three consecutive months within the calendar year

· Statement of benefits from Social Security, Veterans Administration, retirement/pension, unemployment compensation, and/or workmen's compensation

· Divorce decree

· Child support document

· Other official documents

Yearly Re-Certification Process

The California LifeLine program requires all existing California LifeLine customers to verify their eligibility on an annual basis. Each year, on your LifeLine anniversary date, the California LifeLine program will mail to you, in a PINK envelope, a LifeLine verification form. In order to continue receiving your LifeLine discount, you must complete and sign the form and return it to California LifeLine by the due date.

Funding Source & Administration:

California LifeLine is funded by an all-end-user surcharge billed and collected by telecommunications carriers which, in turn, remit the surcharge monies to a financial institution as directed by the Commission or its representatives. Procedures for the administration of ULTS are outlined in General Order (GO 153) at http://docs.cpuc.ca.gov/published/GENERAL_ORDER/40482.htm

Public Purpose Telecommunications Programs: http://www.cpuc.ca.gov/PUC/Telco/Public+Programs/

Communications: Lifeline - Landline -

Although I don't like this

On March 18th, 2010 Matt John says:

Although I don't like this (and am considering dropping my landline -- and more so now), the reality is the opposite -- less users requires each user to pay more. There is fixed infrastructure to maintain and if those costs are spread out over fewer people, each person much pay more.

Consider a cable with a bundle of 100 twisted pairs strung along telephone poles. If 10 years ago, 80 of those pairs were in use for active subscriber lines, maintenance and repair activities (such as routine tree trimming or repairing the cable after a tree limb falls on it) were amortized over those 80 customers. If only 10 of those pairs are now in use, these maintenance and repair costs are the same but now spread over only 10 subscribers - so they have to pay 8x as much for that portion of their bill which is devoted to such fixed costs.

No response received from Ca Lifeline

Hi. I applied for the discount of my monthly telephone several weeks ago, and I have not heard anything back, after I had already re-submitted the application attaching all the required documents as proof of my income. Cox Communications is billing me regular rates, and indicated that I was delinquent $2.69, when I had never received a bill from them, before for that amount, and I had already paid off a disputed amount in order to get the telephone service. Do you know why it is taking so long to get a response from Universal Lifeline, or CA Lifeline?

How do you provide documentation for zero income?

On February 9th, 2010 Luke (not verified) says:

Today I was rejected for lifeline coverage because I had no income in the last year.

"Taylor", the customer service rep I just got off the phone with, said "the lifeline service is only for low income, not zero income people." She also said I needed documentation of zero income from an employer.

When I replied that it is impossible to provide proof of zero income, she just repeated that zero income people did not qualify, and I had to have three months of (low) income to to qualify, or be on some kind of public assistance income.

I asked if the IRS or Franchise Tax Board could be contacted to verify that I had no income and was not a dependent. She said that was not possible.

This makes no sense. Zero income people make less money then low income people. LOL (I have been living very, very carefully on fast dwindling savings and a cashed out IRA)

Also, the rules do not exclude zero income people, it says "is at or less than."

What to do?

Replying to: ZERO INCOME TO QUALIFY FOR PHONE SERVICE

On February 15th, 2010 Joanne (not verified) says:

To provide proof of your statement that you have no income, a notarized affidavit is considered proof and evidence and will stand up in any court or legally be used in this matter and can not be cross examined under any court questioning.

Not my number on Lifeline certification

On December 17th, 2008 Cam (not verified) says:

I know as a reader you are not responsible for how mis-managed Verizon is. I have had nothing but issues with them since I first moved. I once had solid service from them when I had a phone line and DSL- when I moved I had to get FIOS. After many missed appointments from Verzion, I was hooked in. After having terrible phone service I wanted to switch to Vonage. I had to keep internet because they were supposedly the only FIOS offerer in my new area of Perris, CA. I was told I needed to keep a phone number from Verzion to ensure my internet worked. Fine- give me the cheapest plan AND I even told them to cancel my Lifeline service because I was financially fit now. They "did". I dont know what my new number was supposed to be because I never receive a bill (although I have asked repeatedly for them to please send me a hard copy) and I never give out the number because I use my Vonage number. I always get a past due notice which I pay immediately for Verizon. Getting to the question... I get one of those pink renewal notices for Lifeline. Ignore at first because I cancelled it/ dont need it months ago. 2nd notice comes in and I look it over- look at the phone number listed for it & assume it is the number designated for my verizon Fios Internet line. I call it- and someone answers. Am I paying every month for someone elses phone or what????

Warning of measured rate termination of Lifeline

On November 7th, 2008 Dave (not verified) says:

I've been on Lifeline for several years, and am on disability for severe anxiety, which extends to extreme procrastination. Early in 2008 or late 07 I received my Lifeline recertification letter, but kept putting it off, thinking if I delayed recertification it would only cost me $20 or so a month.

Unfortunately I must have subscribed to the Measured Rate service. I was taken off Lifeline in March, and due to an unfortunate cosmic coincidence, the US Postal Service for reasons yet unknown started to return mail to my address to sender. I didn't notice this as most mail got through--things returned were to US government entities, AT&T, and some others I forget.

For three months I wasn't aware of how much I owed AT&T. Due to procrastination I tend to pay bills every two months if the late fees won't be bad. I kept thinking "next bill I get from AT&T I'll pay".

I got a bill in June for about $1200. When I was taken off Lifeline's measured rate it automatically enrolled me in AT&T's measured rate. As I use the internet, I'd been charged for every minute online. This is partly my own fault, but AT&T never called me to tell me I owed them any money, and I only found out when I got a recording from their office notifying me that my mail was being returned to them. Then I found out the USPS thing, fixed that, got back on Lifeline, but still owe the money.

I opened a complaint with CPUC but doubt it will affect what I owe. So, just be careful if you're on measured rate and use the internet--if AT&T drops your lifeline they'll charge you by minute, and will certainly not react if your bill suddenly changes from $7 a month to $400 a month.

I think you'll find that it is your procrastination that leads to your anxiety...not your anxiety that leads to your procrastination. This situation is ENTIRELY your fault. Sorry.

measured rate

On August 13th, 2009 S (not verified) says:

Did you have dial-up internet or DSL while you were on AT&T measured rate? I'm interested in switching to measured rate because I don't use my landline much except for to go on the internet. I called AT&T and they said those measured minutes don't count toward internet.

Forgot to add

On November 7th, 2008 Dave (not verified) says:

Of course I called AT&T to discuss a reduction of the bill. I was given the run-around for a week until getting to managers, who refused to discount any of the bill. I sent a letter to their managers, who also refused. I'm sorry for replying to my own message twice, I'm very tired.

Clarification

On November 7th, 2008 Dave (not verified) says:

I miswrote. I didn't receive a bill in June, I became aware that bills weren't being sent to me then. After that I called AT&T and was shocked that I owed them that much.

Great benefit - horrible service

On November 6th, 2008 Gayle Cain (not verified) says:

My mother, who has a phone beside her bed in a convalescent hospital and has memory problems, is registered to the Lifeline service. Her bill comes to me, her daughter, for handling. I received the annual pink form, and completed it and mailed it back the next day. When I returned from vacation, I found a notice that the form had not been received (something I think is typical in this particular agency), and called to see if a form could be downloaded online and faxed back in time to meet the deadline of tomorrow - November 7th. I was treated quite rudely by the customer service agent, and her supervisor, who informed me they "could not talk to me" because my name wasn't on the account. I explained that the bill came to my address, and verified this information by providing the billing account number - all to no avail. They said, "We can only speak to your mother." Now, I have to reapply, get my name on the account so I can do future business with this agency, and suffer the billing increase until this matter is resolved. On another note, one of the options was "To request an extension on the deadline, press 1." When I pressed 1, I was told "There are no extensions to the deadline." This agency is not customer friendly, and although the benefit is great, to conduct business with this agency, you have to cover your back (make copies of forms and note date and time of phone inquiries - per their instructions, so they must be used to internal bungling!) and expect to jump through hoops to get your issue resolved. Customers deserve better.

On December 15th, 2009 cindy (not verified) says:

Yeah, you're right the Lifeline service has changed for the worse just like a lot of other things in this country. Expect more agencies to treat people like shit unless we the people start doing something about it. Start speaking up now before it's too late. Don't stand for being treated like that. It starts like this and gets worse.

Universal lifeline documentation

On August 21st, 2008 Lou (not verified) says:

I haven't received the pink envelope from the unversal lifeline. Can I order a copy of the form by calling them?

Another question:

I lost my job for almost 2 years, and since then I have not made any income for the year I lost my job, so I didn't fill out any income tax for this year. Now, I do not have current documentation to give for the universal lifeline for this year. What should I do? I cannot afford to lose my universal life line this year. I have been surviving from my savings and my brother is paying for the utilities including my phone while I am trying to find a job. Is there anything I can do to continue with universal lifeline? I just cannot afford to pay more on my telephone service, especially now that I am struggling to find a job while my money is diminishing fast.

Please respond to my ASAP.

Thank you.

customer fraud

On April 10th, 2008 Anonymous (not verified) says:

what do you do if a neighbor who lives down the street proudly admits she is on life line and has been for years - and you know she is not eligible and not even close to being eligible for this program. She signed up using her maiden name, has her 2 small children and 1 adult daughter living with her AND her husband of around 10 years. This woman chooses or does not have to not work because her husband is an executive at a large company, possibly vice president. he probably pulls down 200-250k/year at least. She also employs 2 - 6 "laborers" to help her around house every day. is there a fraud hotline to report end users who are abusing the system?

Make sure you know.

On November 1st, 2008 Anonymous (not verified) says:

Specifically addressing the question:
Do you know for certain that this person is ineligible? From the very general information you have provided it sounds like you are just making the assumption that this person is ineligible. There could be something you have not been told or are not seeing. The children could be from different fathers. She could be on public assistance if that is the case because her "husband" does not equal "father" just because they are living in the same place. That public assistance can be valid because the "husband" is not required to take care of her children unless he is the true father.

On another note:
This lifeline assistance cannot exceed more than $20 a month long term. I have not seen any rates higher than that for the basic measured or flat rate local service to which the assistance would apply. Instead of wasting your energy trying to cause problems for your neighbor, try getting the biggest cheats that you can in your life and bringing them to justice?

On November 12th, 2007 Rochelle (not verified) says:

I sent my recertification form with my information and signature on it before the due date and so far,nothing has changed regarding my income. When I got my bill from ATT,I was surprised to find out that I was charged an extra $35 or $45 because I was removed from the California Lifeline program. I called the customer service and they told me that the form they sent was mailed back to them because of "undeliverable address". I just dont understand why because though we moved to a different city, we still get our mail from our old address and we have never encountered a program like this with our other bills or mail. The representative said that its a problem with our post office and they cant do anything about it. I just think that its not fair to just remove me from the program without notifying me or giving me a warning about the possibility of losing my certification.Now they're telling me that they cant do anything about it,I just have to pay the entire amount..I have no intention of not paying the bill but I just want to know if I can be given a consideration since the mistake didnt come from me,I did what i had to do which is to send the recertification back before the due date.The extra amount i had to pay really counts so much for us because of our tight budget these days,otherwise I wouldnt be enrolled in a low-income program such as this.thank you so much.

Post new comment.

On November 1st, 2008 newer (not verified) says:

Instead of replying to people you think can help you, try posting a new comment. When you reply to people who are helping other people it does not help you get help online because you are "stealing" attention away from the person or people being helped and it clutters up the messages for everyone.

Try to call them back.

On November 1st, 2008 Answer 2 (not verified) says:

You could dispute the amount while trying to fix your problem. If you are certain that all your mail still should have been forwarded to your new address, call the company back and dispute the amount on your bill that would have been covered by the program's help (assuming you did not already pay). Ask to speak to a supervisor if you can't get anywhere with the representative. You are trying to get them to resend whatever form that the company needed from you to get back into the program.

Universal Lifeline Telephone Service (ULTS)

On July 11th, 2007 Brian Fergel (not verified) says:

I have been trying to regain the California Lifeline / Universal Lifeline Telephone Service (ULTS) that I have been applicable once before, and that I am applicable for currently, to my phoneline, but since I've signed up with AT&T I have not been able to re-enact the service. Telephone, email, event a visit to the AT&T office, yet nothing has worked, neither while my telephone line was active nor now, after the line has been disconnected due to non-payment. This notice that I'm looking at currently, "Do not sign a contract until the company has completed this form," I believe is the only error I could have committed. Too bad I've discovered this after the fact. SBC Global was thhe phone company that I had gone through previously, abd this time I went with AT&T because I allowed a friend, Lynette Nicco, to sign me up. I am searching for a job currently, so I desperately need a telephone line. I would appreciate it if I could get some assistance in acquiring Universal Lifeline Telephone Service (ULTS) once again. Thank you.
