Dish Network 500 Instructions Manual page 137

9.GENERAL
A.Physical Address/Change of Address. When setting up your DISH Network account, you
agree to provide us with the physical street address where your Equipment will be located
and your Services will be provided. A post office box does not constitute a physical address
and is not sufficient to meet this requirement. You agree to give us prompt notice of your
change of name, mailing address, physical address where your Equipment is located, and
telephone number. You may do this by notifying our Customer Service Center by telephone
or in writing at the phone number or mailing or e-mail address set forth in the first paragraph
of this Agreement.
B.Notice. Any notice required or permitted to be given by us under this Agreement may be
provided via the mail, on your billing statement, as a bill insert, via broadcast on a television
channel, through publication on the website set forth in the first paragraph of this Agreement,
by telephone or by any other reasonable means. If we send you notice by mail, on your
billing statement or as a bill insert, it will be considered given when deposited in the U.S.
Mail, addressed to you at your then-current billing address in our records. If we send you
notice via broadcast on a television channel or through publication on the website set forth in
the first paragraph of this Agreement, it will be considered given when first broadcast or
published. If we send you notice by telephone, it will be considered given when personally
delivered to you or when left as a message at your then-current phone number in our records.
Unless otherwise specified in this Agreement, any notice required or permitted to be given by
you under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be sent by first class mail addressed to
us at the mailing address set forth in the first paragraph of this Agreement, and shall be
deemed given when received by us at such mailing address.
C.Credit Checks. You authorize DISH Network to investigate your financial responsibility and
creditworthiness, including without limitation acquiring credit reports and histories, and to
report any payment defaults to credit reporting agencies. Under the Fair Credit Reporting
Act, you have the right to notify DISH Network if you believe we have reported inaccurate
information about your account to any consumer reporting agency. Please include the
specific item of dispute and why you believe the information reported is in error in any such
notice.
D.Personal Information. If you have an on-line account with us, you are fully responsible for
maintaining the confidentiality of your password and account username and for all activities
that occur under your password and/or account username. You agree to: (i) keep your
account username and password confidential and not share them with anyone else, and (ii)
immediately notify us of any unauthorized use of your password and/or account username or
other breach of security.
E.Applicable Law. This Agreement, including without limitation all matters relating to its
validity, construction, performance and enforcement, and any claim, complaint or dispute
arising out of or related to this Agreement or Services, shall be governed by the laws and
regulations of the State of Colorado without giving effect to its conflict of law provisions.
These terms and conditions are subject to amendment, modification or termination if required
by such laws or regulations. If any provision in this Agreement is declared to be illegal or in
conflict with any law or regulation, that provision shall be modified to the minimum extent
necessary to make such provision legal and no longer in conflict with such law or regulation,
without affecting the validity of any other provisions.
F.Third-Party Billing Agents. We may enter into relationships with third parties to provide
billing and other services on our behalf, in which case the terms and conditions of this
Agreement shall apply to such third parties as applicable under the circumstances.
Additional terms and conditions imposed by our third-party billing agents, including without
limitation, local telephone companies, may apply. For example (and without limitation), late
fees imposed by our third-party billing agents may be administered according to our third-
party billing agent's billing procedures and applicable state tariffs and regulations; our third-
party billing agents may require you to pay all past due charges for Services, a restart Fee,
and/or a prepayment before we reconnect your Services; other services provided by our third-
party billing agents, including without limitation, local telephone service, may need to be
restored before DISH Network Services can be restored, and a restoral fee and deposit may
be required to restore third-party billing agent services. Partial payments on third-party
billing agent bills may be applied to the balance due for other services billed on your third-
party billing agent bill, including without limitation, local telephone service, according to the
third-party billing agent's billing procedures and applicable state statutes and regulations.
Contact your third-party billing agent for details. Failure to pay all or any part of your third-
party billing agent bill may result in disconnection of Services.
G.Remedies Cumulative. It is agreed that the rights and remedies provided under the terms and
conditions of this Agreement to DISH Network in case of default or breach by you of this
Agreement are cumulative and without prejudice to any other rights and remedies that DISH
Network may have by reason of such default or breach by you at law, in equity, under
contract or otherwise (all of which are expressly reserved).
H.Other. No salesperson, installer, customer service representative, authorized retailer, or other
similarly situated individual is authorized to change the terms and conditions of this
Limited Warranty
