4.3 Taxes, Fees And Assessments
We are required by law to charge you certain taxes, surcharges and assessments that will be included on your bill. You are
responsible for paying all taxes, surcharges and assessments associated with your GreatCall products and services. These
may change from time to time, and we may not be able to give you advance notice about how these changes may affect you.
Except as prohibited by law, we may also, at our discretion, require you to pay regulatory and administrative fees to recover
our costs of complying with regulatory mandates and Universal Service fees or similarly imposed charges. Any customer
who is eligible for an exemption from any tax or fee must provide us with a verifiable, valid and properly executed tax-exempt
certificate. Any tax exemption applies only after the date we receive the certificate from you and have verified your eligibility
for the exemption.
4.4 How We Calculate Your Bill
Your bill is our notice to you of your fees, charges and other important information. It reflects the fees and charges in effect for
your service plan at the time they are incurred. We charge for usage after calls are made or received and charge access and
other fees in advance. The length of a call will be rounded up to the next full minute. Charges start when you’re connected to
an outgoing or incoming call and end after you hang up your phone, the other party on your call hangs up, or the call ends
through disconnection. We only bill for calls that connect, including calls answered by machines. Standard usage charges
apply to toll-free calls. There may be additional usage charges for credit card or third party Operator-assisted calls, which
may be required in certain areas. You will incur usage charges at a minimum rate of $0.35 per minute if you exceed your
service plan minutes. Billing for usage and related charges may sometimes be delayed. Delayed usage charges may be
applied in the month they appear on your bill against minutes included in your service plan for that month, rather than against
the included minutes for the month when you actually made or received the call. This may result in charges higher than you’d
expect in the later month.
