What happens if I experience financial hardship while connected?

At Pineapple Net, we’re committed to supporting our customers — especially during tough times. If you're experiencing financial hardship, we're here to help you stay connected.

What is Financial Hardship?

We consider financial hardship to be when a customer genuinely wants to pay their bills but is unable to due to their financial situation.
This could be caused by a range of circumstances, including:

  • Loss of employment

  • Illness or injury

  • Family issues or domestic violence

  • Unexpected expenses or competing financial priorities

Hardship may be short-term or long-term — either way, we’re here to assist.

How We Can Help

We encourage you to reach out to us as soon as you’re aware you might have difficulties paying.
The earlier we know, the more options we can explore together.

Depending on your situation, we may be able to offer:

  • Moving you to a lower-cost plan

  • Setting up a flexible payment arrangement

  • Waiving late fees or cancellation charges

We’ll work with you to find the best solution and document the agreed plan so everyone’s clear on the next steps.
