Activation & Miscellaneous Charges
Based on our Policies, we may charge activation, prepayment, reactivation, program or other fees to
establish or maintain Services. Certain transactions may also be subject to a charge (for example,
convenience payment, changing phone numbers, handset upgrades, etc.). You will be provided notice of
these types of fees before we complete the requested transaction.
Account & Service Charges; Pro-rating; Unused Minutes
You are responsible for all charges associated with your account and the Services on your account,
no matter who adds or uses the Services.
Charges include, but are not limited to, the monthly recurring
charges, usage charges, taxes, surcharges and fees associated with your Services. These charges are
described or referred to during the sales transaction, in our marketing materials, and in confirmation
materials we may send to you. If you (the account holder) allow end users to access or use your Devices,
you authorize end users to access, download and use Services.
How We Calculate Your Charges For Billing Purposes
Regular Voice Calls: We round up partial minutes of use to the next full minute. Time starts when you
press “Talk” or your Device connects to the network and stops when you press “End” or the network
connection otherwise breaks. You’re charged for all calls that connect, even to answering machines. You
won’t be charged for unanswered calls or if you get a busy signal. For incoming calls answered, you’re
charged from the time shortly before the Device starts ringing until you press END or the network
connection otherwise breaks. If charges vary depending on the time of day that you place or receive
calls (e.g., Nights and Weekend plans), you’re charged for the entire call based on the rate that applies to
the time period in which the call starts.
Walkie-Talkie Charges: Charges for walkie-talkie calls are billed to the person who starts the call and
calculated by multiplying the duration of the call by the applicable rate and number of participants. You’re
charged at least 6 seconds of airtime for each call you start; subsequent communications in the same call
are rounded up to and billed to the next second. Time begins when you press any button to start a walkie-
talkie call and ends approximately 6 seconds after completion of a communication to which no participant
responds – subsequent walkie-talkie communications are considered new calls. Depending on your plan,
nationwide, international or group walkie-talkie calls may use the local walkie-talkie minutes in your plan
and result in additional charges. Responses to call alert transmissions are treated as new walkie-talkie
