Just complete these steps:

 

  • Send us a letter (on company letterhead) with details of the TIN change request. You can email us. Or you can fax us: 1-855-222-6621. Include your name and service location information.
  • Include a copy of the new W-9, if applicable. If you’re contracted as a group, send a group W-9. Otherwise, just send an individual W-9.
