How much? It’s not nailed down yet, but here are the possibilities for how people would be compensated under new FCC rules:
A part of your monthly bill returned to you in cash.
A credit on your next bill, so you pay less.
A reduced bill for the following month because of the blackout.
Proof needed? Details aren’t clear yet, but you’d likely need some evidence that your service was out, like a record or notice from the provider.
This hasn’t been decided yet. Once the FCC finalizes everything, they’ll give a date by which folks need to claim their refunds.
