series of deposits or prepayments, or be subject to an account spending
limit, before Services are activated or maintained.
Changing Service Plans.
If you are on a Non-Term Service Plan, you may
change to a different Service Plan for which you qualify. Any change is
effective at the start of your next full invoicing cycle unless otherwise
specified by us at the time that you place your change order. If you
change or add a different Service Plan or service feature and the change
is effective prior to the start of your next full invoicing cycle, you will be
invoiced a prorated amount. We may require a service charge for
implementing any change directed by you in addition to the charges
associated with the Service Plan or optional service features you select.
If you are on a Term Service Plan and you want to change your service
plan, you may be required to accept a new Term Service Plan and we
may require you to pay the early termination fee set out in your Service
Plan or other fee.

Services may not be available or may operate differently in certain
affiliate markets or other areas.

bureaus. If at any time we determine, in our sole discretion, that
payment for Services may not be made when due, we may suspend
Services and require that you provide payment on account or a
guarantee of payment before we resume Services.

us on your Term Service Plan for the minimum term associated with
that Term Service Plan. We may offer non-identical Service Plans to
different individuals or entities. Services and coverage under some
Service Plans may be more limited than available under other Service
