  1. Why are credit and debit card payments not accepted?

The bank assesses additional processing fees for credit/debit card payments of anywhere from $18-$30+, depending on what type of card it is (debit, business, mileage reward, etc.). There is no way for us to know what will be charged for each individual credit card transaction. Also we are prohibited by law from directly passing on credit card processing fees to Customers.

  1. What happens if I took the special last year but don’t want to take it this year?

We have record of what payment method you were on prior to taking the MLS special last year. If you don’t take the special, you will just be billed the regular annual price according to whatever your prior payment method was.

  1. I already received a bill that does not reflect the $675 rate, but I want to take the special.

If you return the form and your payment for the special, you can disregard any other billing notices or invoices that you receive. Your account will be updated to reflect the special rate.

  1. What happens if I pay for a year of service thru 6/30/24 but cancel my MLS service before then?

As is always our policy per the terms of the MLS Subscriber & License Agreement, we do not provide refunds or credits for unused service.

  1. Are there specials for any other of my services besides MLS currently running?

At this time, special pricing applies only to MLS service. If you have any other services with us, please pay your bill as normal.

  1. How will I know that my payment has been received and that I have been given the special price?

A paid invoice receipt will be provided upon request to mlsspecial@hiinfo.com.

  1. When will my payment be processed?

For ACH payments, you may specify a preferred payment processing date by entering it in the “Payment Date” field, but that date cannot be later than the end date of the special, June 23, 2023. Payment will be processed upon receipt if no date is entered. For check payments, checks will be deposited as they are received.

  1. What is the best way to contact HIS if I still have questions?
