warranties on the phones or other equipment are any limited
warranties extended by the manufacturers. We have no liability in
connection with the phones and other equipment or for the
manufacturers' acts or omissions.
Lost or Stolen Equipment.
If your phone or other equipment is lost or
stolen, you must notify us by calling PCS Customer Service Solutions.
You are responsible for all charges for Services provided to the Number
for the lost or stolen equipment before you notify us of the loss or theft.
We will deactivate Services to the Number upon notification to us of
any loss or theft. You may be required to provide evidence of the loss or
theft (for example, a police report or sworn statement). If the
equipment is later found, we may require that you exchange it for
another phone or other equipment before we reactivate Services (if we
do reactivate Services), as well as require you to pay a reactivation fee.
We will deactivate Services to any Number without prior notice to you
if we suspect any unlawful or fraudulent use of the Number. You agree
to cooperate reasonably with us in investigating suspected unlawful or
fraudulent use.
Messages.
You will incur airtime usage charges when accessing your
voicemail from your PCS Phone. You may also incur charges in
accessing text messages from your PCS Phone. You may access your
voicemail without incurring airtime usage charges by checking your
voicemail from a wireline phone. We may impose limits on the number
of voicemail or text message that can be retained through your PCS
account. Audible or visual indicators of text or voicemail messages,
including mailbox icons on your PCS Phone, may not always provide an
up to date indication of new messages. In certain instances, you may be
required to manually reset or clear your mailbox indicator.
Caller ID.
If you do not want people you call to receive the Number
assigned to your phone, you must call PCS Customer Service Solutions
for information about automatic Caller ID blocking. The Number
assigned to your phone can be blocked on a per-call basis by dialing *67
+ Destination TALK (or similar key), but Caller ID delivery
resumes on the next call you make. Caller ID display on incoming calls
to your Number depends on receiving the information from the calling
party.

Portal Services. Neither Sprint nor its vendors or licensors guarantees
the accuracy, completeness or usefulness of information that is
obtained through the Wireless Web Services or Voice Portal Services.
You are responsible for evaluating such content.
Taxes and Surcharges.
We invoice you for taxes, fees and other charges
levied by or remitted directly to federal, state or local authorities, or
foreign government on Services including, without limitation, sales,
gross receipts, use, and excise taxes. If you claim any tax exemption,
you must provide us with a valid tax-exempt document. Any tax
exemption applies only from the date we receive a valid tax-exempt
document. We also invoice you for fees that we collect and remit to the
government such as Universal Service, and for surcharges that we
collect and keep to pay for the costs of complying with government
mandates such as number pooling and portability, and Enhanced 911
service. These charges are neither taxes nor government imposed
assessments.
Roaming.
Calls made while off the Sprint Nationwide PCS Network are
"roaming" calls. Your PCS Phone is specifically designed and
engineered to work only on the Sprint Nationwide PCS Network. It
works on another CDMA PCS provider's system only when a roaming
agreement is in place between Sprint and the other providers. If your
PCS Phone is a dual-mode phone, it works on both a CDMA PCS
provider's system (in addition to the Sprint Nationwide PCS Network)
and a wireless analog telecommunications provider's system only when
roaming agreements are in place between Sprint and the other
providers. If we do not have a roaming agreement in place, you may be
able to place roaming calls "manually" by using a valid credit card. If
there is a gap or other interruption of coverage within a PCS coverage
area that prevents connection with the Sprint Nationwide PCS
Network and your dual-band phone is set to roam automatically when
outside PCS coverage, you may incur roaming fees within a PCS
coverage area. Certain features and services may not be available when
roaming (including PCS Vision, voicemail, call waiting, call forwarding,
etc.).
Phones and Other Equipment.
Phones and other equipment may be
purchased and returned as provided in the purchase documents. We
