                             Pursuant to Section 63.19 of the Commission’s Rules1, notice is hereby provided on behalf
                     of Horry Telephone Cooperative, Inc. d/b/a Horry Telephone Long Distance (“HTLD”) of
                     discontinuance of international post-paid and pre-paid calling card service. HTLD is a non-

                              Specifically, international calling card service will be discontinued effective March 13,

TO:



At Horry Telephone Cooperative, Inc. d/b/a Horry Telephone Long Distance (HTLD), our goal is
to provide you with competitive products of high quality and value. Changing market conditions
require that we continually evaluate our prices, product offerings and network.

Occasionally our evaluation directs us to make changes to some products; therefore, we are
writing to inform you of the HTLD plan to discontinue use of HTLD-issued Post-Paid and Pre-
Paid calling cards used to make Interstate Long Distance Service and International Long
Distance Service calls. These features are currently available in HTLD Rates, Terms &
Conditions, for the state of South Carolina. The effective date for discontinuance is March 13,
2018, or as soon after that date as the FCC authorizes the discontinuance. Once discontinued,
customers will not be able to use HTLD calling cards.

The FCC will normally authorize this proposed discontinuance of service unless it is shown
that customers would be unable to receive service or a reasonable substitute from another
carrier or that the public convenience and necessity is otherwise adversely affected. If you
wish to object, you should file your comments as soon as possible, but no later than 15 days
after the Commission releases Public Notice of the proposed discontinuance. You may file
your comments electronically through the FCC's Electronic Comment Filing System using the
docket number established in the Commission's Public Notice for this proceeding, or you may
address them to the Federal Communications Commission, Wireline Competition Bureau,
Competition Policy Division, Washington, DC 20554, and include in your comments a
reference to the §63.71 Application of HTLD. Comments should include specific information
about the impact of this proposed discontinuance upon you or your company, including any
inability to acquire reasonable substitute service.

If you have any questions or concerns regarding this notice please contact Customer
Relations Associate at 843-365-2154 or 1-800-824-6779. HTLD appreciates your
business and we look forward to our continued relationship.

Sincerely,

Horry Telephone Long Distance
3480 Hwy 701 North, Conway SC 29526
