Graceba Total Communications is an American company that provides cable TV and broadband Internet service to rural Houston County, Alabama.

Legal actions

Graceba was involved with a legal dispute with the FCC regarding allegedly improper procedure that took place in 1994 involving in an auction of licenses to provide interactive video data service (IVDS) in local telecommunications markets. In 1997 the courts ruled against Graceba's petition, which was resubmitted on appeal. In 2000, the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit again rejected Graceba's petition. However, the FCC did implicitly acknowledge the legitimacy of at least part of Graceba's complaints, as they issued a partial refund of fees to the participants of the 1994 auction.
