additional offerings by EasyTel utilized by you.
Right to Change Terms and Conditions
You agree that EasyTel may change these Terms and Conditions
or its rates for any or all portions of the Services at any time
upon ten (10) days prior notice. You agree that EasyTel may give
you notice of such changes by posting such changes within the EasyTel
web site http://WWW.UniversalOffice.com or any of its Services
web sites, by e-mail or by conventional mail (based on the address
provided by you when you subscribed), that the ten (10) day time
period begins to run when the notice is given, and that, by continuing
to use the Services after the effective date of such changes, you
agree to be bound by any such modified Terms and Conditions of
the Services.
Billing and Payment
You agree to pay EasyTel all rates and charges. A subscription
to the Service may require a credit card number or voided check
for billing, depending on your program. By providing your credit
card information or a voided check, you grant EasyTel authorization
to submit charges to that credit card number of to debit your bank
account for your use of the Service. The rates per term for Services
are charged in advance of the upcoming term of service. All usage
charges for "per minute" rates will be billed based on
actual usage, as provided, in pre-determined increments. Any other
applicable charges (set up fee, payphone surcharges, taxes, over
the limit charges, others) will also be billed to you. You acknowledge
that the amount charged by EasyTel may vary based on your usage
of the Services. Any unpaid charges after 30 days will be subject
to a monthly service fee of 1.5% of the outstanding balance, or
the maximum legally allowable interest rate. If charges applied
to your credit card or bank account are rejected EasyTel reserves
the right to assess a processing fee.
Monthly Fees and Prepaid Calling Time
You acknowledge and agree that your Service will remain "AS
IS" and will not be upgraded or downgraded during any monthly
term of service. Upon payment of the Monthly Fee, whether for the
initial month of Service or for renewal months, EasyTel will not
refund any portion of the Monthly Fee for any reason. You agree
that changes will not be made to your Universal Office until the
end of your next month of service. EasyTel will automatically bill
you in full for a renewal month of service if you do not request
a different billing option or cancel your Service. In addition
to the up-front Monthly Fee, your usage charges will be deducted
from your Prepaid Calling Time Balance as they occur. EasyTel will
not refund any portion of the Prepaid Calling Time; you are however
welcome to use up all Prepaid Calling Time in your account as payment
for telephone calls and/or any other services provided by EasyTel.
Statements
You will have access to a Statement of Account for each
month that you incur charges, on the Internet, detailing your usage
during that month. The Statement is not a bill. Charge totals on
your Statement may not agree with charges shown on your credit
card or bank statement due to differences in statement cut-off
dates. Unless you notify EasyTel of any dispute regarding your
Statement within forty-five (45) days (or such longer period required
by law, if any) after the date the Statement was made available
to you, the charges on the Statement will be deemed to be accepted
by you for all purposes, including resolution of any inquiries
made by your credit card issuer, if applicable.
Fraudulent and Abusive Use of the Services
EasyTel helps protect you against fraudulent use of your
Services with private user names and passwords, credit card verification
upon sign up and daily and monthly usage limits. You are responsible
for controlling access to and maintaining the security of your
user name and password. You shall notify EasyTel of any user names
and passwords which are lost, stolen or suspected of being used
fraudulently, in writing, via email or fax. You agree you will
be liable for all charges incurred prior to and within thirty (30)
minutes after you notify EasyTel's Customer Relations, in writing
or via email or fax, to deactivate suspect user names and passwords.
You agree to not engage in or assist others in fraudulent or abusive
use of the Services.
Cancellation
The Services will remain in full force until canceled by
either party. EasyTel may suspend, interrupt, or cancel your service
at any time (i) without notice for non-payment, for any reason,
which in EasyTel's judgment may preclude it from receiving payment,
or for any violation by you of these Terms and Conditions; or (ii)
with notice for any reason, with or without cause. If you wish
to cancel, please access and complete the EasyTel Cancellation
Form on the EasyTel website and fax and/or email your cancellation
request to EasyTel as directed on the form. After any cancellation,
you agree EasyTel has authorization to initiate a charge if there
is an outstanding balance. EasyTel will not refund a prorated portion
of monthly service fees or prepaid calling time in the event that
you cancel Service part way through the month. Subsequent reinstatements
of Service after cancellation may be subject to a Service reinstatement
fee, at EasyTel's discretion.
