    Billing Support


    Do you accept money orders?

    Yes, we do!

    Do you accept cash payments?

    Yes. If you are paying with cash, we recommend that you drop off your payment at our office rather than sending it in the mail, for your protection.

    Do you accept credit card payments?

    Certainly. We accept Visa, MasterCard, Discover and American Express.

    Do you offer a discount for pre-payment?

    Yes we do, but only for our webhosting and non-dedicated dial-up accounts. Pre-pay for 11 months of access, and get the 12th month free!

    Please note that there are no discounts for pre-paying for 2, 3 or 6 months, etc., but you are certainly welcome to do so if you find that more convenient.

    We regret that at this time, there are no discounts for pre-paying for Webjogger’s Highspeed Wireless or Collocation accounts.

    If, after pre-paying for the annual discount plan, I move from the area or otherwise decide to switch services, can I get a refund when I cancel?

    Yes, we will prorate a proportional refund to you according to the fraction of the year that you actually used your service before terminating your account.

    If I pre-pay annually for the 25 hour or 60 hours plan, can I upgrade to a higher plan if I need more time on line?

    Yes, we will calculate a prorated charge for the difference in costs of the two plans for the time remaining on your pre-paid service period. This can also be arranged with you retroactively, if you receive significant $1/hour charges for going over the 25 or 60 hour per month limits.

    What does Prorated mean?

    This refers to a proportional dividing up of a charge or refund according to the time used or remaining for use in a service period. So, for example, if you sign up in the middle of a month and pay by credit card (actually processed on the 1st of the month), then the first payment will be the sum of one month plus the prorated charge for the first half-month used.

    What are the charges for going over the 25 or 60 hour per month time limits?

    Our billing software monitors your time on line, and levies a charge of $1 per hour of overusage, with periods of less than an hour being charged proportionately. If these charges prove significant, and you wish to change retroactively to a higher plan, paying the difference and continuing with the higher plan afterwards, we will on good faith adjust the bill for you.

    How do I monitor my hours on line, or know if I have gone over my 25 or 60 hours on the timed accounts?

    If you go to the Webjogger Portal page - portal.webjogger.net, you'll find a link at the top of the page called "Customer Information." This link will take you to a page that will request your username and password. Once you enter your username and password, click on the "login" button. A page will be displayed showing your customer information. At the bottom of the page, click on the "Usage" button. The first table lists the times you used the Internet during this last month and shows your total usage at the bottom. The second table lists previous months' usage. Please click on the logout button when you are finished checking your usage.

    How long do I have to pay my bill after Webjogger generates the statement?

    Payment for Webjogger’s dialup, webhosting and collocation accounts are due within 17 days after Webjogger generates the statement. We do almost always tack on a small courtesy "grace period" to that. Afterwards, our computer billing software will automatically deactivate your account.

    Payment for Webjogger’s Wireless Highspeed accounts are due within 30 days after Webjogger generates the statement. Highspeed accounts with past due invoices will be subject to late fees, consisting of an 1.5% monthly finance charge. Service to past due accounts may also at Webjogger's discretion be temporarily suspended, and subject to a $20.00 reconnection fee once payment in full of all past due amounts is received.

    If your account has been shut off, or you realize that your payment might arrive late, please give us a call at 757-4000, informing us of the situation and letting us know what to expect. We will almost always immediately reactivate the account manually as a courtesy, while awaiting receipt of your payment.

    If I have problems paying my bill, what can I do?

    Give us a call at 757-4000, and we can talk about the specific situation, hopefully coming to an acceptable mutual understanding

    Why didn't I receive my invoice?

    With some moderate frequency, we are told our customers did not receive the statements we mailed out; nor, sometimes apparently, do we receive the checks they have mailed to us. We obviously have no control over this; when it happens, we ask that you report the problem to your local post office so they can take appropriate measures.

    Overlap billing situations sometimes also arise. For example, if we receive payment for your next service period before the invoice has actually been generated, no current statement is issued.

    Or, if your payment is considerably overdue, in certain cases the current invoice will not be sent while we are still awaiting the promised older payment. In those situations, it is preferable to send in 2 months payment at least, to get by the overlap and normalize the billing cycles.

    Do you have email invoicing?

    Yes, for people paying by check. Customers who opt for email invoicing will also receive an emailed late notice when their payment is overdue. It is important that these customers check their email with some regularity, and empty their mail boxes periodically so that the invoices (as well as other mail) will not be rejected and bounce back.

    If I haven't used my Internet account for more than 2 weeks, can I get a credit for those 2 weeks?

    No, not under normal circumstances. We ask that you please notify us beforehand to put your account on hold when, for example, you will be traveling for an extended period, or when your computer is awaiting repair. All our fixed costs remain the same, whether or not you are actually using the system (as is the case with your telephone bill, which you pay per month whether or not you use the phone). However, as always we try to be friendly, understanding and flexible, and are willing to discuss and adjust to special circumstances if you call to discuss them with us.
