Wireless Communications Service

The IURC requires wireless service providers, also known as Commercial Mobile Radio Service (“CMRS”) providers, which serve customers in Indiana to obtain a Certificate of Territorial Authority (“CTA”) pursuant to I.C. 8-1-32.5.   This enables the IURC to maintain accurate records and contact information on telecommunications providers serving Indiana.  The IURC does not regulate the rates, terms or conditions of wireless service; however, Indiana law requires CMRS providers to:

  • contribute to the Indiana State Universal Fund pursuant to the Commission’s Final Order in Cause 42144;
  • pay fees required by the Relay Access Corporation for the Hearing and Speech Impaired (“InTrac”) pursuant to I.C. 8-1-2.8 ;
  • pay the public utility fee pursuant to I.C. 8-1-6; and
  • if designated as an Eligible Telecommunications Carrier (“ETC”), provide a Lifeline/Link-up discount to qualifying low-income customers, among other requirements. 

State laws administered by other agencies also apply.  For example CMRS providers are required to collect a “wireless emergency enhanced 911 fee” from each subscriber who has a primary residence in Indiana pursuant to I.C. 36-8-16.5-30.5.

Consumers who have complaints regarding their wireless service are encouraged to contact the service provider first.  The IURC maintains contact information for the CMRS providers certified in Indiana in the link below:
