Telecom & Internet in Colorado

In response to ongoing consumer concerns, recent legislation such as Senate Bill 24-056, enacted in 2024, enhances protections for internet service subscribers by requiring clearer billing disclosures and faster resolution of service complaints. Additionally, Colorado Revised Statutes § 40-3-104 mandates providers to offer accurate information regarding service capabilities and pricing. Consumers experiencing unresolved disputes can contact the Colorado PUC Consumer Services Division at (303) 894-2070 or toll-free at 1-800-456-0858 for assistance.
