Frequently Asked Questions
BlackBerry Internet Service – Frequently Asked Questions
How do I change or update the BlackBerry device I want to use with the BlackBerry Internet
Service?
The BlackBerry Internet Service is associated with your particular BlackBerry device. If you
switch BlackBerry devices, you can log in to the BlackBerry Internet Service website at
www.sprint.blackberry.com to update the device PIN that is associated with the BlackBerry
Internet Service. See “Installing the BlackBerry Desktop Software” on page 32 for more
information. See the BlackBerry Internet Service Online Help or contact Sprint for more
information about changing or updating your BlackBerry device.
Why can I not add a supported email address?
FAQs
Verify that the email account that is associated with the email address that you want to add
supports POP3 or IMAP4. Contact your email provider for more information about the
address types that you can add. See the BlackBerry Internet Service Online Help for more
information about adding supported email addresses.
When I add a supported email address, how does it work with the BlackBerry Internet Service?
When you add a supported email account (up to 10) to the BlackBerry Internet Service, a
link is established between the BlackBerry Internet Service and the email account that is
associated with the email address you have added. This link allows you to send and
receive email messages from your BlackBerry device using the email account that you
have added. Email messages continue to be delivered to the original email account as they
were before you added the email account to the BlackBerry Internet Service. You also see
email messages from the account that you have added in the message list on your
BlackBerry device. Email messages that you read, file, or delete on your BlackBerry device
should be reflected as read, filed, or deleted wirelessly in your email account. Changes that
you make to email messages from another access interface are not reflected on your
BlackBerry device. If you have a Microsoft Exchange or IBM Lotus Domino work email
account, or an IMAP personal email account, email messages that you send from the
BlackBerry device are copied to the Sent Items folder in your supported email account.
Frequently Asked Questions

Frequently Asked Questions
Sprint Subscriber Agreement: 
General Terms and Conditions of Service
Please note these terms may not be the most current version. A current version of the terms
is available at our website or upon request.
Terms and Conditions
Basic Definitions
In this document: (1) “we,” “us,” “our,” and “Sprint” mean Sprint Solutions, Inc. and its affiliates doing
business as Sprint or Sprint PCS; (2) “you,” “your,” “customer,” and “user” mean an account holder or
user with us; (3) “Device” means any phone, device, accessory or other product we sell to you or that is
active on your account with us; and (4) “Service” means our offers, rate plans, options, wireless services
or Devices on your account with us.
The Subscriber Agreement
Terms and Conditions
The Subscriber Agreement (“Agreement”) is a contract under which we provide and you accept our
Services. In addition to these Terms and Conditions of Service (“Ts&amp;Cs”), there are several parts to the
Agreement, including, but not limited to, the detailed plan or other information on Services we provide or
refer you to during the sales transaction, and any confirmation materials we may provide you. It is
important that you carefully read all of the terms of the Agreement.
Services Covered By These Ts&amp;Cs &amp; Additional Terms
These Ts&amp;Cs apply to our standard wireless Services and any other Service we offer you that references
these Ts&amp;Cs. Different terms will apply to most business accounts. Additional terms will apply when you
use certain Services, typically those you can access online (for example, picture/video Services, online
forums, etc.). Additional terms will also apply if you activate Services as part of a bundle with another
company’s services (for example, cable services, home phone services, etc.). The additional terms for
bundled Services may either modify or replace certain provisions in these Ts&amp;Cs, including terms
relating to activation, invoicing/payment, and disputing charges. Also, a different dispute resolution
provision may apply to services provided by another company (the dispute resolution provisions in this
Sprint Subscriber Agreement: General Terms and Conditions of Service
73
Agreement still apply to our Services). You will be provided details on any additional terms with your
selection of any bundled Service.
Our Policies
Services are subject to our business policies, practices and procedures (“Policies”), including, but not
limited to, our Privacy Policy and Acceptable Use Policy and Visitor Agreement – both available at our
website. You agree to all of our Policies when you use our Services. Our Policies are subject to change at
anytime with or without notice.
When You Accept The Agreement
You must have the legal capacity to accept the Agreement. You accept the Agreement when you do any
of the following: (a) sign a contract with us on paper or electronically; (b) accept Agreement through an
oral or electronic statement; (c) attempt to or in any way use the Services; (d) pay for the Services; or (e)
open any package or start any program that says you are accepting the Agreement when doing so. If
you don’t want to accept the Agreement, don’t do any of these things.
Term Commitments &amp; Early Termination Fees
Many of the Services (for example, rate plans and Device discounts) that we offer require you to maintain
certain Services with us for a minimum term, usually 1 or 2 years (“Term Commitment”). You will be
charged a fee (“Early Termination Fee”) for each line of Service that you terminate early (i.e., prior to
satisfying the Term Commitment) or for each line of Service that we terminate early for good reason
(for example, violating the payment or other terms of the Agreement). Early Termination Fees are a
part of our rates. Your exact Term Commitment and Early Termination Fee may vary based on the
Services you select and will be disclosed to you during the sales transaction. Carefully review any Term
Commitment and Early Termination Fee requirements prior to selecting Services. After you have
satisfied your Term Commitment, your Services continue on a month-to-month basis without any Early
Termination Fee, unless you agree to extend your Term Commitment or agree to a new Term
Commitment. As explained directly below, there are instances when you will not be responsible for an
Early Termination Fee for terminating Services early.
When You Don’t Have To Pay An Early Termination Fee
You aren’t responsible for paying an Early Termination Fee when terminating Services: (a) provided on a
month-to-month basis; (b) consistent with our published trial period return policy; or (c) in response to a
materially adverse change we make to the Agreement as described directly below.
74
Sprint Subscriber Agreement: General Terms and Conditions of Service
Our Right To Change The Agreement &amp; Your Related Rights
We may change any part of the Agreement at any time, including, but not limited to, rates, charges,
how we calculate charges, or your terms of Service. We will provide you notice of material changes,
and may provide you notice of non-material changes, in a manner consistent with this Agreement (see
“Providing to Each Other Under the Agreement” section). If a change we make to the Agreement is
material and has a material adverse effect on Services under your Term Commitment, you may
terminate each line of Service materially affected without incurring an Early Termination Fee only if
you: (a) call us within 30 days after the effective date of the change; and (b) specifically advise us that
you wish to cancel Services because of a material change to the Agreement that we have made. If you
do not cancel Service within 30 days of the change, an Early Termination Fee will apply if you terminate
Services before the end of any applicable Term Commitment.
Our Right To Suspend Or Terminate Services
We can, without notice, suspend or terminate any Service at any time for any reason, including, but not
limited to: (a) late payment; (b) exceeding an Account Spending Limit (“ASL”); (c) harassing/threatening
our employees or agents; (d) providing false information; (e) interfering with our operations; (f) using/
suspicion of using Services in any manner restricted by or inconsistent with the Agreement; (g)
breaching the Agreement, including our Policies; (h) providing false, inaccurate, dated or unverifiable
identification or credit information, or becoming insolvent or bankrupt; (i) modifying a Device from its
manufacturer specifications; or (j) if we believe the action protects our interests, any customer’s interests
or our network.
Your Ability To Change Services &amp; When Changes Are Effective
Terms and Conditions
You typically can change Services upon request. In some instances, changes may be conditioned on
payment of an Early Termination Fee or certain other charges, or they may require you to accept a new
Term Commitment. Changes to Services are usually effective at the start of your next full invoicing cycle.
If the changes take place sooner, your invoice may reflect pro-rated charges for your old and new
Services.
Your Right To Terminate Services
You can terminate Services at any time by calling us and requesting that we deactivate all Services. You
are responsible for all charges billed or incurred prior to deactivation. If Services are terminated before
the end of your invoicing cycle, we won’t prorate charges to the date of termination and you won’t receive
a credit or refund for any unused Services. Except as provided above, you must also pay us an Early
Termination Fee for each line of Service that you terminate early.
Sprint Subscriber Agreement: General Terms and Conditions of Service
75
Credit Checks &amp; Credit Information
We agree to provide you Services on the condition you have and maintain satisfactory credit according
to our standards and policies. You agree to provide information we may request or complete any
applications we may provide you to facilitate our review. We rely on the credit information you furnish,
credit bureau reports or other data available from commercial credit reference services, and other
information (such as payment history with us) to determine whether to provide or continue to provide you
Services. The Services we offer you can vary based on your credit history. We may at any time, based on
your credit history, withdraw or change Services, or place limits or conditions on the use of our Services.
You agree to provide us updated credit information upon request. We may provide your payment history
and other account billing/charge information to any credit reporting agency or industry clearinghouse.
Account Spending Limits (“ASL”)
An ASL is a temporary or permanent limit (typically based on credit history, payment history, or to prevent
fraud) we place on the amount of unpaid charges you can accumulate on your account, regardless of
when payment on those charges is due. We reserve the right to determine which charges count towards
an ASL. If you have an ASL, we may suspend your Services without prior notice if your account balance
reaches the ASL, even if your account is not past due. We may impose or increase an ASL at any time
with notice. An ASL is for our benefit only and should not be relied on by you to manage usage.
Deposits &amp; Returning Deposits
We may at any time require a deposit, as a guarantee of payment, for you to establish or maintain
Service (“Deposit”). By providing us a Deposit, you grant us a security interest for all current or future
amounts owed to us. We may change the Deposit at any time with notice. You can’t use a Deposit to
make or delay payments. The Deposit, the length of time we hold the Deposit, and changes to the
Deposit are determined based on your credit history, payment history and other factors. Unless
prohibited by law, we may mix Deposits with our other funds and it won’t earn interest and we reserve the
right to return the Deposit as a credit on your invoice at anytime. If your Services are terminated for any
reason, we may keep and apply your Deposit to any outstanding charges. We’ll send any remaining
portion of the Deposit to your last known address within 90 days after your final invoice – if it is returned
to us, we will forward it on to the appropriate state authorities to the extent required by law.
Restrictions On Using Services
You can’t use our Services: (a) to transmit content/messages that are, or in any manner that is, illegal,
fraudulent, threatening, abusive, defamatory, or obscene; (b) in a way that could cause damage or
adversely affect our customers, reputation, network, property or Services; (c) to communicate any
76
Sprint Subscriber Agreement: General Terms and Conditions of Service
unsolicited commercial voice, text, SMS, or other message; (d) to infringe on the copyright of another, or
upload or transmit any “virus,” “worm,” or malicious code; or (e) in any way prohibited by the terms of
our Services, the Agreement or our Policies.
Your Device, Number &amp; E-mail Address; Caller ID
We don’t manufacture any Device we might sell to you or that is associated with our Services, and we
aren’t responsible for any defects, acts or omissions of the manufacturer. The only warranties on your
Device are the limited warranties given to you by the manufacturer directly or that we pass through.
Your Device is designed to be activated on the Sprint network and in other coverage areas we make
available to you. As programmed, it will not accept wireless service from another carrier. Except for any
legal right you may have to port/transfer your phone number to another carrier, you have no and cannot
gain any (for example, through publication, use, etc.) proprietary, ownership or other rights to any phone
number, identification number, e-mail address or other identifier we assign to you, your Device or your
account. We’ll notify you if we decide to change or reassign them. Your CDMA Sprint PCS phone has a
software programming lock that protects certain of the handset’s operating parameters against
unauthorized reporgramming. If you wish to obtain the software program lock code for your CDMA Sprint
PCS phone, please visit Sprint.com or call 1-888-211-4727 for information and eligibility requirements.
Porting/Transferring Phone Numbers
We don’t guarantee that number transfers to or from us will be successful. If you authorize another carrier
to transfer a number away from us, that is considered a request by you to us to terminate all of the
Services associated with that number. You’re responsible for all charges billed or incurred prior to
deactivation and for any applicable Early Termination Fees.
Terms and Conditions
Coverage; Where Your Device Will Work
Our coverage maps are available at our stores and on our website. The specific network coverage you
get will depend on the radio transmissions your Device can pick up and Services you’ve chosen. Our
coverage maps provide high level estimates of our coverage areas when using Services outdoors
under optimal conditions. Coverage isn’t available everywhere. Estimating wireless coverage and
signal strength is not an exact science. There are gaps in coverage within our estimated coverage
areas that, along with other factors both within and beyond our control (network problems, software,
signal strength, your Device, structures, buildings, weather, geography, topography, etc.), may result
in dropped and blocked connections, slower data speeds, or otherwise impact the quality of Service.
Services that rely on location information, such as E911 and GPS navigation, depend on your Device’s
ability to acquire satellite signals (typically not available indoors) and network coverage.
Sprint Subscriber Agreement: General Terms and Conditions of Service
77
Roaming
“Roaming” typically refers to coverage on another carrier’s network that we make available to you based
on our agreements with other carriers. These agreements may change from time to time and roaming
coverage is subject to change. Your ability to receive roaming coverage depends on the radio
transmissions your Device can pick up. You can pick up roaming coverage both within and outside our
network coverage areas. Your Device will generally indicate when you’re roaming. Depending on your
Services, separate charges or limits on the amount of minutes used while roaming may apply. Certain
Services may not be available or work the same when roaming (including data Services, voicemail, call
waiting, etc.).
About Data Services &amp; Content
Our data Services and your Device may allow you to access the internet, text, pictures, video, games,
graphics, music, email, sound and other materials (“Data Content”) or send Data Content elsewhere.
Some Data Content is available from us or our vendors, while other Data Content can be accessed from
others (third party websites, games, ringers, etc.). We make absolutely no guarantees about the Data
Content you access on your Device. Data Content may be: (1) unsuitable for children/minors; (2)
unreliable or inaccurate; or (3) offensive, indecent or objectionable. You’re solely responsible for
evaluating the Data Content accessed by you or anyone on your account. We strongly recommend
you monitor data usage by children/minors. Data Content from third parties may also harm your Device
or its software. To protect our network, Services, or for other reasons, we may place restrictions on
accessing certain Data Content (such as certain websites, applications, etc.), impose separate charges,
limit throughput or the amount of data you can transfer, or otherwise limit or terminate Services. If we
provide you storage for Data Content you have purchased, we may delete the Data Content with notice
or place restrictions/limits on the use of storage areas. You may not be able to make or receive voice
calls while using data Services.
Specific Terms &amp; Restrictions On Using Data Services
In addition to the rules for using all of our other Services, unless we identify the Service or Device you
have selected as specifically intended for that purpose (for example, wireless routers, Data Link, etc.), you
can’t use our data Services: (1) with server devices or host computer applications, or other systems that
drive continuous heavy traffic or data sessions; and (2) as a substitute or backup for private lines or
frame relay connections. We reserve the right to limit, suspend, or constrain any heavy, continuous data
usage that adversely impacts our network performance or hinders access to our network. If your
Services include web or data access, you also can’t use your Device as a modem for computers or
other equipment, unless we identify the Service or Device you have selected as specifically intended 
78
Sprint Subscriber Agreement: General Terms and Conditions of Service
for that purpose (for example, with “phone as modem” plans, connection card plans, wireless router
plans, etc.).
Activation &amp; 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 &amp; 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
Terms and Conditions
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 walkietalkie 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
Sprint Subscriber Agreement: General Terms and Conditions of Service
79
transmissions even when responding within 6 seconds of receiving the alert. Walkie-talkie billing methods
are subject to change as we introduce new walkie-talkie Services.
Data Usage: Unless we specifically tell you otherwise, data usage is measured in bytes, kilobytes and
megabytes – not in minutes/time. 1024 bytes equals 1 kilobyte (“KB”), and 1024 KB equals 1 megabyte.
Bytes are rounded up to kilobytes, so you will be charged at least 1 KB for each data usage session
(“data session”). Rounding occurs at the end of each data session, and sometimes during a data
session. Depending on your data Services, usage may be charged against an allowance or on a fixed
price per KB. If you are charged on a fixed price per KB, any fractional cents will be rounded up to the
next cent. You are charged for all data directed to your Device’s internet address, including data sessions
you did not initiate and for incomplete transfers. As long as your Device is connected to our data
network, you may incur data charges. Examples of data you will be charged for includes the size of a
requested file or Data Content (game, ringer, etc.), web page graphics (logos, pictures, banners,
advertisement, etc.), additional data used in accessing, transporting and routing the file on our network,
data from partial or interrupted downloads, re-sent data, and data associated with unsuccessful attempts
to reach websites or use applications. These data charges are in addition to any charges for the Data
Content itself (game, ringer, etc.). Data used and charged to you will vary widely, even between identical
actions or data sessions. Estimates of data usage – for example, the size of downloadable files – are not
reliable predictors of actual usage. Your bill won’t separately list the number of KB attributed to a specific
action/data session.
Your Bill
Your bill provides you notice of your charges. It reflects monthly recurring charges (usually billed one bill
cycle in advance) and usage/transaction specific charges (usually billed in the bill cycle in which they’re
incurred). Some usage charges, such as those that depend on usage information from a third party, may
be billed in subsequent bill cycles and result in higher than expected charges for that month. Bill cycles
and dates may change from time to time. Your bill may also include other important notices (for
example, changes to this Agreement, to your Service, legal notices, etc.). Your paper bill may not
include individual call detail. Your call detail is available online. Paper bills with call detail may be subject
to an additional charge. If you choose internet billing, you will not receive paper bills.
Your Payments; Late Fees
Payment is due in full as stated on your bill. If we do not receive payment in full by the date specified on
your bill, a late payment charge, which may be charged at the highest rate permissible by law, may be
applied to the total unpaid balance. We may also charge you any costs we pay to a collection agency to
collect unpaid balances from you. If we bill you for amounts on behalf of a third party, payments received
are first applied to our charges. You may be charged additional fees for certain methods of payment. We
80
Sprint Subscriber Agreement: General Terms and Conditions of Service
may charge you, up to the highest amount permitted by law, for returned checks or other payments paid
by you and denied for any reason by a financial institution. Acceptance of payments (even if marked
“paid in full”) does not waive our right to collect all amounts that you owe us. We may restrict your
payment methods to cashier’s check, money order, or other similar secure form of payment at any time
for good reason.
Taxes &amp; Government Fees
You agree to pay all federal, state and local taxes, fees and other assessments that we’re required by law
to collect and remit to the government on the Services we provide to you. These charges may change
from time to time without advance notice. If you’re claiming any tax exemption, you must provide us with
a valid exemption certificate. Tax exemptions generally won’t be applied retroactively.
Surcharges
Terms and Conditions
You agree to pay all surcharges (“Surcharges”), which include, but are not limited to: Federal Universal
Service, various regulatory fees, Sprint administrative charges, gross receipts charges, and charges for
the costs we incur in complying with governmental programs. Surcharges are not taxes and are not
required by law. They are rates we choose to collect from you and are kept by us in whole or in part.
The number and type of Surcharges may vary depending upon the location of your primary billing
address and can change over time. We determine the rate for these charges and these amounts are
subject to change as are the components used to calculate these amounts. We will provide you notice
of any changes to Surcharges in a manner consistent with this Agreement (see “Providing Notice To
Each Other Under The Agreement” section). However, since some Surcharges are based on amounts
set by the government or based on government formulas, it will not always be possible to provide
advance notice of new Surcharges or changes in the amount of existing Surcharges. Information on
Surcharges is provided during the sales transaction and is available on our website.
Disputing Charges - You Must Still Pay Undisputed Charges
Any dispute to a charge on your bill must be made within 60 days of the date of the bill that initially
contained the charge. Disputes can only be made by calling or writing us as directed on your invoice or
elsewhere. You accept all charges not properly disputed within the above time period – undisputed
charges must still be paid as stated on your bill.
Protecting Our Network &amp; Services
We can take any action to: (1) protect our network, our rights and interests, or the rights of others; or (2)
optimize or improve the overall use of our network and Services. Some of these actions may interrupt or
Sprint Subscriber Agreement: General Terms and Conditions of Service
81
prevent legitimate communications and usage – for example, message filtering/blocking software to
prevent SPAM or viruses, limiting throughput, limiting access to certain websites, applications or other
Data Content, etc. For additional information on what we do to protect our customers, network, Services
and equipment, see our Acceptable Use Policy and Visitor Agreement at our website.
Your Privacy
You agree to the terms of our Privacy Policy, available at our website, when you use our Services. This
policy may change from time to time, so review this policy with regularity and care. Among other things,
the policy includes important information on what information we collect about you, how we use that
information, and with whom we share that information (for example, to provide you certain Services, to
protect our rights and interests, to respond to legal process, to facilitate a merger, etc.). Also, to ensure
the quality of our Services and for other lawful purposes, we may also monitor or record calls between
us (for example, your conversations with our customer service or sales departments). If you do not agree
with the terms of our Privacy Policy, do not purchase or use our Services.
We encourage you (the account holder) to protect the privacy of your account information by
establishing passwords (including for your online accounts), which may include an answer to a backup
shared secret question. These authenticators will be used when you access your account. This is the
most effective way for you to protect your account. We treat the holder of your password(s) and/or your
answer to a backup shared secret question as an authorized person on your account. Please do not
share your authentication information with anyone that you do not wish to have access to your account.
You agree that we may contact you in our discretion about important account related matters through the
contact information you provide, through the Services or Devices to which you subscribe or through
other available means. We also may allow you to set preferences for your preferred means of contact.
As we provide telecommunications Products and Services to you (the account holder), we develop
information about the quantity, technical configuration, type and destination of telecommunications
Products and Services you use, as well as some other information found on your bill (“CPNI”). Under
federal law, you have the right, and we have a duty, to protect the confidentiality of your CPNI. For
example, we implement safeguards that are designed to protect your CPNI, including authentication
procedures when you contact us. For some accounts with a dedicated Sprint representative, we may rely
on contacting your pre-established point of contact as the standard authentication measure.
Location Based Services
Our network generally knows the location of your Device when it is outdoors and/or turned on. By using
various technologies to locate your Device, we can provide enhanced emergency 911 services, and
optional location-sensitive services provided by us or a third party. Environmental factors (such as
82
Sprint Subscriber Agreement: General Terms and Conditions of Service
structures, buildings, weather, geography, landscape, and topography) can significantly impact the ability
to access your Device’s location information and use of location-sensitive services. The terms and
conditions of any location-sensitive service that you purchase from us may provide more information
about how location information is used and disclosed. Use of some of location-sensitive services may
require network coverage. If any Device on your account uses a location-sensitive service, you (the
account holder) authorize the end user to download, access and use location-sensitive services and
agree to clearly and regularly notify the end user of your device that their location may be tracked or
discovered. For additional information on location-sensitive services, see our Privacy Policy at our
website.
911 Or Other Emergency Calls
Public Safety Officials advise that when making 911 or other emergency calls, you should always be
prepared to provide your location information. Unlike traditional wireline phones, depending on a
number of factors (e.g., whether your Device is GPS enabled, where you are, whether local emergency
service providers have upgraded their equipment, etc.), 911 operators may not know your phone
number, your location or the location of your Device. In certain circumstances, an emergency call may
be routed to a state patrol dispatcher or alternative location set by local emergency service providers.
Enhanced 911 service (“E911”), where enabled by local emergency authorities, uses GPS technology to
provide location information. Even when available, however, E911 does not always provide accurate
location information. If your Device is indoors or for some other reason cannot acquire a satellite signal,
you may not be located. Some Devices have a safety feature that prevents use of the keypad after dialing
911 – you should follow voice prompts when interacting with emergency service providers employing
IVR systems to screen calls.
Terms and Conditions
If Your Device Is Lost or Stolen
Call us immediately if your Device is lost or stolen because you may be responsible for usage charges
before you notify us of the alleged loss or theft. You agree to cooperate if we choose to investigate the
matter (provide facts, sworn statements, etc.). We may not waive any Early Termination Fees if you
choose to terminate Services as a result of loss or theft of your Device.
Disclaimer of Warranties
WE MAKE NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING (TO THE
EXTENT ALLOWED BY LAW) ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, NON-INFRINGEMENT
OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE CONCERNING YOUR SERVICES (INCLUDING YOUR
DEVICE). WE DON’T PROMISE UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE SERVICES AND DON’T
AUTHORIZE ANYONE TO MAKE WARRANTIES ON OUR BEHALF.
Sprint Subscriber Agreement: General Terms and Conditions of Service
83
You Agree We Are Not Responsible For Certain Problems
You agree that neither we nor our vendors, suppliers or licensors are responsible for any damages
resulting from: (a) anything done or not done by someone else; (b) providing or failing to provide
Services, including, but not limited to, deficiencies or problems with a Device or network coverage (for
example, dropped, blocked, interrupted calls/messages, etc.); (c) traffic or other accidents, or any healthrelated claims relating to our Services; (d) Data Content or information accessed while using our
Services; (e) an interruption or failure in accessing or attempting to access emergency services from a
Device, including through 911, Enhanced 911 or otherwise; (f) interrupted, failed, or inaccurate location
information services, (g) information or communication that is blocked by a spam filter, or (h) things
beyond our control, including acts of God (for example, weather-related phenomena, fire, earthquake,
hurricane, etc.), riot, strike, war, terrorism or government orders or acts.
You Agree Our Liability Is Limited - No Consequential Damages.
TO THE EXTENT ALLOWED BY LAW, OUR LIABILITY FOR MONETARY DAMAGES FOR ANY CLAIMS
YOU MAY HAVE AGAINST US IS LIMITED TO NO MORE THAN THE PROPORTIONATE AMOUNT OF
THE SERVICE CHARGES ATTRIBUTABLE TO THE AFFECTED PERIOD. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES
ARE WE LIABLE FOR ANY INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR SPECIAL DAMAGES OF ANY
NATURE WHATSOEVER ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO PROVIDING OR FAILING TO PROVIDE
SERVICES IN CONNECTION WITH A DEVICE, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, LOST PROFITS, LOSS
OF BUSINESS, OR COST OF REPLACEMENT PRODUCTS AND SERVICES.
DISPUTE RESOLUTION
We Agree To First Contact Each Other With Any Disputes
We each agree to first contact each other with any disputes and provide a written description of the
problem, all relevant documents/information and the proposed resolution. You agree to contact us with
disputes by calling or writing us as instructed on your invoice. We will contact you by letter to your billing
address or on your Device.
Instead Of Suing In Court, We Each Agree To Arbitrate Disputes
We each agree to finally settle all disputes (as defined and subject to any specific exceptions below) only
by arbitration. In arbitration, there’s no judge or jury and review is limited. However, just as a court would,
the arbitrator must honor the terms and limitations in the Agreement and can award the same damages
and relief, including any attorney’s fees authorized by law. The arbitrator’s decision and award is final and
84
Sprint Subscriber Agreement: General Terms and Conditions of Service
binding, with some exceptions under the Federal Arbitration Act (“FAA”), and judgment on the award
may be entered in any court with jurisdiction. We each also agree as follows:
(1) “Disputes” are any claims or controversies against each other related in any way to our
Services or the Agreement, INCLUDING, but not limited to, coverage, Devices, privacy, or
advertising, even if it arises after Services have terminated – this includes claims you bring against
our employees, agents, affiliates or other representatives, or that we bring against you.
(2) If either of us wants to arbitrate a dispute, we agree to send written notice to the other providing a
description of the dispute, previous efforts to resolve the dispute, all supporting documents/
information, and the proposed resolution. Notice to you will be sent to your billing address and notice
to us will be sent to: General Counsel; Arbitration Office; 2001 Edmund Halley Drive VARESP0513502; Reston, Virginia 20191. We agree to make attempts to resolve the dispute. If we cannot resolve
the dispute within forty-five (45) days of receipt of the notice to arbitrate, then we may submit the
dispute to formal arbitration.
(3) The FAA applies to this Agreement and arbitration provision. We each agree the FAA’s provisions,
not state law, govern all questions of whether a dispute is subject to arbitration.
(4) The arbitration will be administered by the International Institute for Conflict Prevention and
Resolution (“CPR”) under its arbitration rules. If any of the CPR’s rules conflict with the terms of the
Agreement, the terms of the Agreement apply. You can obtain procedures, rules, and fee information
from the CPR at 1-212-949-6490 or www.cpradr.org.
(5) Unless we each agree otherwise, the Arbitration will be conducted by a single neutral arbitrator
and will take place in the county of your last billing address. The federal or state law that applies to the
Agreement will also apply during the arbitration.
Terms and Conditions
(6) We each agree not to pursue arbitration on a classwide basis. We each agree that any
arbitration will be solely between you and us (not brought on behalf of or together with another
individual’s claim). If for any reason any court or arbitrator holds that this restriction is
unconscionable or unenforceable, then our agreement to arbitrate doesn’t apply and the dispute
must be brought in court.
(7) We each are responsible for our respective costs relating to counsel, experts, and witnesses, as
well as any other costs relating to the arbitration. However, we will cover any arbitration administrative
or filing fees above: (a) $25 if you are seeking less than $1,000 from us; or (b) the equivalent court
filing fees for a court action in the appropriate jurisdiction if you are seeking $1,000 or more from us.
Sprint Subscriber Agreement: General Terms and Conditions of Service
85
Exceptions To Our Agreement To Arbitrate Disputes
Either of us may bring qualifying claims in small claims court. In addition, this arbitration provision does
not prevent you from filing your dispute with any federal, state or local government agency that can, if the
law allows, seek relief against us on your behalf.
No Class Actions
TO THE EXTENT ALLOWED BY LAW, WE EACH WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO PURSUE DISPUTES ON A
CLASSWIDE BASIS; THAT IS, TO EITHER JOIN A CLAIM WITH THE CLAIM OF ANY OTHER PERSON OR
ENTITY, OR ASSERT A CLAIM IN A REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY ON BEHALF OF ANYONE ELSE IN
ANY LAWSUIT, ARBITRATION OR OTHER PROCEEDING.
No Trial By Jury
TO THE EXTENT ALLOWED BY LAW, WE EACH WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY
LAWSUIT, ARBITRATION OR OTHER PROCEEDING.
Indemnification
You agree to indemnify, defend and hold us harmless from any claims arising out of your actions,
including, but not limited to, failing to provide appropriate notices regarding location-sensitive services
(see “Location Based Services” section), failure to safeguard your passwords, backup question to your
shared secret question or other account information, or violating this Agreement, any applicable law or
regulation or the rights of any third party.
Providing Notice To Each Other Under The Agreement
Except as the Agreement specifically provides otherwise, you must provide us notice by calling or writing
us as instructed on your invoice. We will provide you notice in your bill, correspondence to your last
known billing address, to any fax number or e-mail address you’ve provided us, by calling you on your
home phone or Device, by voice message on your Device or home phone, or by text message on your
Device.
Other Important Terms
Subject to federal law or unless the Agreement specifically provides otherwise, this Agreement is
governed solely by the laws of the state encompassing the area code assigned to your Device, without
regard to the conflicts of law rules of that state. If either of us waives or doesn’t enforce a requirement
under this Agreement in an instance, we don’t waive our right to later enforce that requirement. Except as
86
Sprint Subscriber Agreement: General Terms and Conditions of Service
the Agreement specifically provides otherwise, if any part of the Agreement is held invalid or
unenforceable, the rest of this Agreement remains in full force and effect. This Agreement isn’t for the
benefit of any 3rd party except our corporate parents, affiliates, subsidiaries, agents, and predecessors
and successors in interest. You can’t assign the Agreement or any of your rights or duties under it. We
can assign the Agreement. The Agreement and the documents it incorporates make up the entire
agreement between us and replaces all prior written or spoken agreements – you can’t rely on any
contradictory documents or statements by sales or service representatives. The rights, obligations and
commitments in the Agreement that, by their nature, would logically continue beyond the termination of
Services (including, but not limited to, those relating to billing, payment, 911, dispute resolution, no class
action, no jury trial), survive termination of Services.
