Frequently asked questions

General information on the upgrade

Northern Lights Fiber is upgrading the system that manages customer accounts and billing. This update improves reliability, security, and the way you access your account online. You’ll notice a new account portal experience, while your service itself remains the same.

Future phased changes are planned and will be shared as they’re ready, keeping you informed every step of the way.

On Tuesday, March 3rd, we will be moving to the new billing system.
During this transition, there may be brief disruptions to portal access, where you normally view your bill and manage services. While we expect the transition to go smoothly, we’ll keep you informed promptly if any unforeseen issues arise.

We’re investing in better tools to support our customers as we grow. The updated platform allows for more accurate billing, improved account management, and a smoother online experience.

Our goal is simple: keep your connection — and your experience — running smoothly.

No. Your internet, TV services and phone will continue without interruption. This change only affects billing and account access.

With the updated account experience, you can:

  • Create a username and password
  • View and download invoices more easily
  • Manage payment methods in one place
  • Update account information
  • Access billing details with improved clarity
  • Experience enhanced security protections

 

More improvements are planned after Phase One. We’ll share updates as new features roll out, giving you greater control over your services, including Borealis TV channel selections, add-ons and more.

ACCESSING Your Account

Yes. For security reasons, all customers will activate their account when the new system launches.

You’ll receive an email by March 3, 2026, with step-by-step instructions. If you don’t see it in your inbox, please check your junk or spam folder first. Still can’t find it? Give us a call at 888‑236‑2947, and we’ll be happy to help.

No. You’ll create a new password when you activate your account. A Microsoft, Yahoo or Google account will not be necessary to login.

Your service will continue. However, activating your account ensures uninterrupted access to billing and payment tools.

Billing & Payments

No. Your service plan and pricing are not changing as part of this update.

Most customers will keep the same billing cycle. If any changes apply to your account, we’ll notify you directly.

Customers with automatic payments may be asked to confirm their payment details to ensure uninterrupted billing.

Yes — once your payment details are confirmed in the new system.

Security & Privacy

Yes. The updated system includes enhanced security measures to protect your account and payment information.

You’ll receive official communications directly from Northern Lights Fiber. We will never ask for sensitive information by email.

If you’re unsure about a message, please contact us directly.

  1. Watch for your activation email
  2. Create your new login
  3. Confirm your payment information
  4. Log in before your next billing date

That’s it — no service interruption is expected.
