Terms and Conditions of Services

charged for an entire voice call based on the time period in which the call is
initiated. Partial minutes of use are rounded up to the next minute.

Sprint PCS Vision Charges

. Vision usage is measured in bytes, not in

minutes. Bytes are rounded up to kilobytes. Usage rounding occurs at the
top of each clock hour while in a session and at the end of each session and
is then charged to you based on the terms of your Services. Depending on
your Services, usage may be charged against an allowance or on a fixed
price per kilobyte. Usage charges may be rounded up to the next cent at
monthly or other intervals. In certain instances, you may not know that
your session has not ended. As long as your device is connected to our
network, you will incur data usage charges. You will be charged for all data
directed to the internet address (or “IP address”) assigned to your device,
regardless of who initiates the activity or whether your device actually
receives the data. This includes, but is not limited to, the amount of data
associated with the particular information/item (e.g. game, ringer, email,
etc.), additional data used in accessing, transporting and routing this
information/item on our network, data from partial or interrupted
downloads, re-sent data, and data associated with unsuccessful attempts
to reach Websites or use applications. Based on these and a number of
other factors (e.g., the specific application, network performance, etc.)
data used and charged to you will vary widely, even for the same activity.
Estimates of data usage – for example, the size of downloadable files – will
not be accurate or a reliable predictor of actual usage. Your invoice will not
separately identify the number of kilobytes attributable to your use of
specific sites, sessions or services.

Taxes and Surcharges.

We invoice you for taxes, fees and other charges

levied by or remitted directly to federal, state, local or foreign governments
including, without limitation, sales, gross receipts, Universal Service, use,
and excise taxes. If you claim any tax exemption, you must provide us with
a valid tax-exempt document. Tax exemptions are not applied
retroactively. We also invoice you for surcharges that we collect and keep
to pay for the costs of complying with government programs such as
number pooling and portability, and Enhanced 911 service; these charges
are not the taxes nor government imposed assessments.
