with features such as voicemail and caller
identification. Monthly access charges shall begin
once Customer's Service is activated, which may
occur before Customer receives the Equipment.
Usage Charges - Depending on the Service Plan
selected, Customer may incur usage charges for
Services such as: wireless calling, Direct
Connect
SM , Nationwide Direct Connect SM , Group
Connect SM , Mobile Messaging, Nextel Online ®
Services and other Services that may be offered
from time to time. Usage charges may vary
depending on how, where and when Customer
uses the Service. Customer may be assessed long
distance charges (including international calling) or
other charges for "toll-free" calls to 800, 866, 877,
888 and other toll-free numbers. Customer also
may be charged for the use of special Services
such as 411 services or call-forwarding. Airtime
charges will be assessed for the entire period
during which a call or Direct Connect
SM
transmission is connected to the Nextel network. A
wireless call connection begins approximately
when Customer presses the button to initiate an
outgoing call or the phone starts ringing for an
incoming call and ends approximately when the
first party terminates the call. Customer shall be
responsible for all charges for incoming wireless
calls that are answered. A Direct Connect
SM or
Group Connect SM transmission occurs
approximately when Customer presses the button
to initiate a transmission and ends approximately
six (6) seconds after completion of a
communication (i.e., when Customer or another
participant releases the button) to which no
participant responds. Customer initiates a new
Direct Connect
SM or Group Connect SM transmission
if Customer responds more than six (6) seconds
after the other participant completes a
communication. Nationwide Direct Connect
SM calls
use the Direct Connect SM minutes in Customer's
plan and incur an additional access charge. Airtime
charges for Direct Connect
SM or Group Connect SM
transmissions or Nationwide Direct Connect SM
access are charged to the customer that initiates
the transmission and, unless a rate plan includes
unlimited transmissions or access, are calculated
by multiplying the duration of the transmission
(including the six (6) second period referred to
above) by the applicable rate and the number of
participants. Customer will not be charged for
sending or receiving call alert transmissions ("Call
Alerts"), but will be deemed to have initiated a new
Direct Connect
SM transmission if Customer
responds to a Call Alert, even if Customer
responds within six (6) seconds of receiving the
Call Alert. Text and numeric messaging will be
charged on a per message basis; however,
Customer may elect to purchase a certain number
of messages for a fixed monthly price. Any
messages in excess of Customer's allotted
