Deposits

Most customers are not asked to pay a deposit. Requirements for a deposit are based on your payment history with previous telecommunications service(s) and are made in accordance with WAC (Washington Administrative Code) rules. Information about these and other Washington State Laws and rules can be found on Washington State’s website at http://www.leg.wa.gov/LawsAndAgencyRules.

If you do need to pay a deposit, we want to return it to you as soon as you establish good credit with us. We’ll review your account after you have had service with us for twelve (12) months. If you have been making your payments when due, we’ll return your deposit – with interest. (Interest on deposits is calculated according to WAC 480-120-128.)

Billing

Bills are mailed at the beginning of each month. Monthly recurring charges for Local Voice, Internet, Security & Alarm, and other similar monthly services are billed one month in advance. Long distance calls are billed after you make them. Installation and other one-time charges are typically billed after the work is done. If you have questions about your bill, please contact us to discuss billing alternatives.

If your interexchange (long distance) provider bills you directly, please contact that provider with any questions or concerns you may have regarding that billing.

Bills are payable when rendered and are considered past due if they’re not paid by the due date stated on the bill or, if no due date is stated on the bill, within 15 days of the invoice date. If you are concerned that your payment may be past due, please call our Customer Service team. If your bill becomes delinquent, we will make an attempt to provide you with written notice of pending disconnection, in accordance with WAC rules. This notice will include the date that payment must be received by our office to avoid interruption of service. We may also make one final attempt to contact you prior to interruption of service. If your service is interrupted, contact our office so that we may review your account status with you. Use the Contact Us link to locate information on how to contact our offices.

How do I login to the SmartMail web interface?

You can access your SmartMail Voicemail from the top of any Whidbey Telecom web page by clicking on the “My Voicemail” button. Scroll down to the Voicemail box and select “Log in”. At the Login page, enter your 10-digit voicemail service phone number and password.

You can also type the direct link into your address bar: voice.whidbey.com.

Why does my voicemail desktop look different?

The SmartMail Voicemail web interface was recently updated to be more user-friendly. This does not affect your account or service plan. The new system allows more customization and better navigation. For example, options to change your password and/or PIN, or access the Helpdesk, are now quick links on your dashboard. We will discuss these changes in more detail below.

If you have any questions or require any assistance with the new interface, please call our 24/7 Tech Support Center at 360-321-TECH (8324).

What is my PIN and how do I set it up?

Your Personal Identification Number (PIN) is your security or passcode used to access your SmartMail service. You can setup and/or change your PIN from either your phone or the SmartMail web interface.

For lost or forgotten PINs, please contact our 24/7 Technical Support at 360-321-TECH (8324).

Can I bypass the PIN to access my SmartMail account?

To maintain a high level of security for your SmartMail account, it is highly recommended that a PIN be required to gain access. Without a PIN, anyone with access to your phone will be able to listen to your voicemail messages, as well as assume your SmartMail user identity when sending messages. SmartMail does offer a Skip PIN feature that can be turned off or on either through a phone or through the SmartMail web interface.

To update your Skip PIN status through the SmartMail Web Interface:

From the SmartMail dashboard, select the “Message Settings” icon at the bottom. Then select “Mailbox Access”. Click the box next to the “Skip PIN” field to disable this feature. Click on the “Apply” button to save your changes.

To update your Skip PIN Status by phone:

Dial 360-321-MAIL and enter your PIN. Then press 4 from the Main Menu to enter the Mailbox Settings portion of the SmartMail phone tree, then press 3, then 3 again to hear your current Skip PIN feature status. If you wish to change this setting, please press 1. The system will then advise you of your updated Skip PIN feature status.

How do I listen to my voicemail messages or forward them to an email address?

From the dashboard, click on the “Messages” tab at the top. From there, you can listen to and/or view a transcription of new voice messages.

You can forward a SmartMail voicemail message to another SmartMail subscriber or as an email to any email address you choose. Click on the “Action” toggle on the message you want to forward. From the dropdown, you can select whether to forward the message as an email or voicemail.

Why should I setup a SmartMail Contacts List?

Having a Contacts List in SmartMail allows you to enhance many of the SmartMail features. For example, if the person calling you is one of your contacts, SmartMail will display their name within the voicemail message information, not just their phone number.

How do I add new contacts to my contacts list?

From the SmartMail dashboard, click on the “Contacts” tab at the top. To add a new contact, click the “New Contact” button. Enter the contact details. When finished, click “Save”.

How do I setup my SmartMail voicemail greeting?

From the SmartMail dashboard, select the “Message Settings” icon at the bottom. Then select “Voicemail Greeting”. From here you can record or upload greetings. You can select a standard system greeting from the dropdown box next to “Use The Greeting”:

  • System: This plays the normal system greeting with no identifying information
  • System with number: This plays the normal system greeting, including your phone number
  • System with name: This plays the normal system greeting, but includes your recorded name
  • Personal: To record your own greeting using the microphone from your computer, select “Personal” from the dropdown and press the “record” link.
How long can my SmartMail voicemail greeting be?

With our Edge Plan your greeting can be up to 2 minutes long. Our Flex Plan offers a greeting up to 1 minute long.

How long can voicemail messages be and how many messages can be saved?

With the Flex Plan you can receive and save up to 21 messages that can be up to 3 minutes long each. The Edge Plan offers you up to 31 messages that can be up to 4 minutes long each. All messages that are older than 30 days will automatically be deleted. You have the option to save voicemail messages longer by forwarding them as an attachment to an e-mail address of your choosing.

If I accidentally delete a voicemail message, am I able to restore it?

If you delete a voicemail message through the SmartMail phone tree, please press 6 on your phone number pad to enter the Erased Messages portion of the phone tree. Please press 1 to repeat erased messages and press 2 to restore the voicemail message that you wish to restore. Voicemail messages that you delete through the SmartMail Web Interface will be permanently deleted.

Can I see my call history and for how long?

The SmartMail Web Interface will maintain the record of a call for up to 60 days and will do so for up to 500 calls! The call record includes the call specifics, such as the phone number and date and time of the call. Once a call record is more than 60 days old (from the date of the call) the record will be automatically deleted.

Is there a minimum browser requirement?

The SmartMail Web Interface is currently compatible with most browsers. However, older versions of certain browsers and some uncommon browsers may not function.

The earliest versions supported by SmartHub Web are as follows:

  • Chrome – 40.0
  • Explorer – No longer supported
  • Firefox – 33.0
  • iOS – 9.3
  • Microsoft Edge – 15.0
  • Safari – 10.0

Customers using an unsupported version will receive a message “Browser Not Supported – We have detected that you are using a browser that is not supported by SmartHub.” The message includes instructions on how to install or upgrade a supported version.

If you need further assistance, please contact the Technical Support Team.

If my Web Interface account has been locked due to too many failed login attempts, how can I unlock it?

To ensure the security of your account information and service, when necessary, we may temporarily lock the ability to login to your SmartMail account through the Web Interface. If locked out, you can wait one hour and try again. If you find you’re unable to remember the correct PIN to login either through the Web Interface or through the phone associated with the voicemail service, please contact our Customer Service & Support representatives for assistance. Please be sure to have your identifying personal and account information available when calling for verification purposes.

Telemarketers

Under Washington law, residential telephone customers have the right to keep telephone solicitors from calling back. (A solicitor is someone who calls you to ask you to buy something or donate something.) The law requires that solicitors identify themselves, their company or organization, and the purpose of the call within the first 30 seconds.

If at any time during the conversation you say that you do not want to be called again, or want to have your name and number removed from the calling list, the company or organization may not have a solicitor call you for at least one year. Also, the company may not sell or give your name and number to another company or organization.

The office of Washington State’s Attorney General is authorized to enforce this law. In addition, individuals may sue the solicitor for a minimum of one hundred dollars per violation. If the lawsuit is successful, the individual may also recover court and attorney’s fees. To file a complaint, or request more information on the law, you may contact the Consumer Protection Division of the Attorney General’s Office at 1-800-551-4636 or visit the Washington State Office of the Attorney General’s website at www.atg.wa.gov.

Note: If you’re filing a complaint, you should include the name and address of the calling individual, business, group, or organization, the time the calls were received, the nature of the calls, and any additional information available.

National Do-Not-Call Registry

Whidbey Telecom is pleased to provide you with the following information about your right to register an objection to receiving telephone solicitations under the National Do-Not-Call Registry maintained by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC). Your registration may limit the number of telephone solicitations you receive but it does not prevent calls from non-profit entities, political groups, debt collectors, information and survey calling groups, and companies with which you have an established business relationship or to whom you have given your express agreement in writing to receive their calls.  If you ask a company to stop calling you, the company must honor your request.  You may register your objection to receiving telephone solicitations online at www.donotcall.gov or over the phone by calling toll-free 1-888-382-1222 (TTY 1-866-290-4236). Please note, when registering by phone you must call the National Do Not Call Registry from the phone you wish to register.  You can register up to three phone numbers at a time. To register more than three personal phone numbers, you will need to complete the process again.  To revoke your registration you can delete your telephone number only by calling the toll free number listed above from the telephone number you wish to delete.

Annoyance Calls

Under both Washington State and federal law it is a crime for anyone to make a telephone call of an obscene, anonymous or threatening nature to any person with intent to harass that person, or for anyone knowingly to permit any telephone under his or her control to be used for such purposes. Here are a few tips to keep in mind:

  • When answering your telephone, if the caller doesn’t say anything after you have said “hello” twice, HANG UP.
  • Don’t give out information until you are absolutely certain you know who is speaking. Be extremely cautious about giving personal and financial information to anyone over the phone.
  • Be skeptical of offers that sound too good to be true; they usually are.
  • Make sure that children know that they shouldn’t give any information to strangers over the phone.
  • Hang up if someone uses obscene or threatening language.
  • Be extremely cautious about revealing the fact that you are alone.
  • You should report calls of a threatening nature to your local law enforcement agency, immediately.
  • Contact a member of our Customer Service team if you would like information on how to handle obscene or harassing calls.
Recorded Calls

If you hear a short beep tone on your line about every 15 seconds, it means that the person you’re talking to is recording your conversation; the signal is provided for your protection. In the State of Washington, it’s generally unlawful for any person to record any telephone conversation without first obtaining the consent of all persons engaged in the conversation. There are several circumstances under which you’re considered to have given your consent, even if you don’t say so explicitly. For example, if you contact a company and its inbound calls are received with an announcement indicating that they may be recorded, you’re considered to have given your consent if you proceed with the call.

If you want to know more about this, you may find it helpful to refer to the Washington State Legislature’s RCW 973.030 online at apps.leg.wa.gov/rcw.

The Washington Relay Service is a free service provided by the WA State Office of the Deaf and Hard of Hearing (ODHH) ensuring equal communications access to the telephone service for people who are deaf, hard of hearing, deaf-blind and speech disabled. This service allows hearing callers to communicate with text-telephone (TTY) callers and vice versa through specially trained Communication Assistants (CA’s). Access to these services is available through the 711-dialing code. Calls can be made to anywhere in the world, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year with no restrictions on the number, length, or type of calls. All calls are strictly confidential, and no records of any conversations are maintained. Anyone wishing to use Washington Relay Service for TTY or Voice calls simply dials 711 to connect with a CA. The CA will dial the requested number and relay the conversation between the callers.

The telephone numbers to contact the Washington Relay Service are below. Calls to these numbers are free but long distance, operator assistance, and/or other applicable charges will apply.

Long Distance Calls

Washington Relay will honor requests by users to be billed through their preferred long-distance carriers. Washington Relay users will need to inform the Communication Assistant (CA) to bill their calls to a designated long-distance carrier at the beginning of the call. If the user does not inform the CA, the long-distance call will be billed by a default long distance carrier which may not be the same as the caller’s preferred carrier. Washington Relay users can create a Customer Database Profile to store their individual call preferences expediting call processing and ensuring a preferred long-distance carrier is used each time a call is made. To set up your Customer Database Profile, call Washington Relay Customer Service at 1.800.676.3777 (TTY/Voice) or 1.800.676.4290 TTY/Voz (Spanish). Representatives will take your request on the phone or send you a form to complete.

Public Payphone Calls with TTY

The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) issued an order outlining an interim plan for access to public payphone service through relay services. The order states:

  • All local calls from TTY payphones are free of charge.
  • Toll calls can be billed through calling cards and prepaid cards.

TTY users who wish to use a coin TTY payphone can use Washington Relay to assist in connecting calls. There are several ways to bill non-local calls:

  • Collect
  • Third party
  • Calling card
  • Prepaid card

You can dial most international calls directly. Before calling, you will need to know the country code and the city routing code in addition to the local telephone number. You can look up country and city codes at CountryCallingCodes.com

To dial an international call:
  1. Dial the international access code “011” (for operator-assisted calls, dial “01”)
  2. Dial the country code
  3. Dial the city routing code
  4. Dial the local telephone number; if you have touchtone dialing, press the # key after dialing

It may take extra time before you hear the phone ring on an international call; allow at least 45 seconds.
