Cornerstone Group © 2024 As announced in our December ‘23 newsletter, there will be another increase in your bill for our TV services coming on the July invoice. We understand these rising costs can be frustrating, which is why we encourage you to consider switching to video streaming services. To help you make the transition from traditional cable TV to video streaming, we partnered with Mitchell Technical College to provide video streaming classes exclusively for our customers. These classes will cover the benefits of streaming and how to navigate through the various streaming platforms. You’ll learn how to access and enjoy the content you love at a fraction of the cost.

TV Increase Coming in July Venture Welcomes a New Employee We are excited to introduce a new member of our Venture Communications team in the Highmore community. Shelby Myers joined us in mid-March, becoming a member of the accounting department. We are thrilled to welcome such a talented individual to our team. 911 Surcharge to Increase During the 2024 State of South Dakota legislative session, a decision was made to increase the 911 emergency services surcharge to $2.00. This change will take effect from 7/1/24 through 7/1/26 on all voice users of telecommunication services. The proceeds will be used to support both one-time and ongoing costs of 911 systems in the State. As a voice service provider in South Dakota, Venture is mandated to collect and remit the 911 emergency surcharges to the SD Department of Revenue. It is also required that these charges be clearly stated in any billing statement, invoice or receipt.
