Roaming Coverage.
You are roaming anytime your phone indicates that you are
roaming. Roaming coverage is only available with certain devices and, unless included as
part of your Services, will result in additional charges. Roaming calls placed "manually"
(through an operator or with a credit card) will always incur separate and additional
charges. Depending on your phone settings, you may automatically roam if there is a gap or
interruption in coverage within the Nationwide Sprint PCS Network coverage area and
roaming coverage areas. See your phone guide for how to adjust phone settings. Certain
features and services may not be available in roaming coverage areas (including Sprint PCS
Vision, voicemail, call waiting, call forwarding, etc.).
Charges.
Carefully review the terms of your Services. You will be assessed charges based
on the terms of your Services including, without limitation, monthly recurring charges and
charges based on actual usage (e.g., charges for long distance, roaming, call forwarding,
directory assistance, etc.). Airtime and other time based usage charges are calculated from
when your device first initiates contact with a network until the network connection is
broken, whether or not you were actually successful in connecting to the intended
destination. However, you will not be charged for voice calls that ring and do not pick up, or
if you get a busy signal. For voice calls received by your device, you are charged from the
time shortly before the phone starts ringing until the call is terminated. You are 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.
Invoicing & Payment.
Invoicing cycles and dates may change from time to time.
Monthly recurring and related charges for Services are generally invoiced one invoicing
cycle in advance. Other charges are invoiced soon after they are incurred. Most usage is
