What it is and who needs it.
What the AT&T surety bond actually guarantees
A business applying for telecommunications services and/or facilities from AT&T Southeast can be asked to furnish security for the prompt payment of the charges AT&T bills. Rather than compel a cash deposit, AT&T Southeast will accept a surety bond on its own form (AT&T RF-2354) in the same amount instead.
It is a three-party arrangement: your business (the principal), the surety carrier, and AT&T Southeast (the obligee). If your account goes unpaid, AT&T Southeast can make written demand on the surety for the penal amount; the surety's liability is direct and primary, so AT&T does not first have to prove your business is unable to pay. If the surety pays a claim, your business repays the surety — the bond is not insurance for you.
Under AT&T's bond form, the term is indefinite and stays in force until the surety gives AT&T Southeast 30 days' written notice of cancellation; your business and the surety remain liable for any charges that accrued before that notice takes effect. Enter the penal amount your AT&T account representative set — we price the bond at 5% of that amount, $100 minimum, and the application collects no credit information.
