Sprint's electronic invoicing presentation ("the Service") is an online information and communications service provided by Sprint Communications Company L.P. ("Sprint"). Please read these terms and conditions carefully before using the Service. By using the Service you agree to be bound by all of the terms and conditions set forth herein. If you do not wish to be bound by these terms and conditions, you may not access or use the Service. Sprint may modify these terms and conditions at any time without notice and such modifications shall be deemed effective immediately upon posting of the modified terms.
DESCRIPTION OF THE SERVICE
A. There are no additional fees charged by Sprint for using the electronic invoice presentation or the payment. However, if you pay your bill electronically through your financial institution you may incur charges from your financial institution in order to make online payments. If you choose to receive and pay your bill online from an electronic bill payment service or your financial institution, a paper copy of your invoice will no longer be sent in the mail. You can print a copy of your bill directly from the web site. You can also save your electronic bill to your hard drive or a disk directly from the web site. If you wish to continue to receive a paper copy of your invoice or have a copy of a past invoice re-printed, simply call Sprint's Customer Service.
B. Each month you will receive an email notifying you that your electronic invoice is ready for viewing. If you have elected to no longer receive a paper bill in the postal mail, this will be your only notification that a new invoice is ready for viewing. Sprint may occasionally send you an email message to the email address on your account informing you of new Web site features and other information that may assist you with access to and management of your Sprint long-distance account. Your email address will not be used for marketing purposes unless you specifically subscribe to receive product and marketing updates through Sprint's standard opt-in email enrollment form.
C. If you have any questions about your bill, or a comment about the Service, you may click below on the Send us link {www.sprint.com/custserv} to email your questions to us or call Sprint Customer Service. While the item(s) in question are being investigated, you do not have to pay them. The amount not in question is still due and payable upon receipt of your bill.
D. For your protection the Service is secured. In order to access the Service it is necessary to have a browser that supports 128-bit encryption.
E. You may pay your bill through the Sprint.com website by arranging for credit card payment or you may mail in a check. You may also arrange to electronically pay your bill from your checking account through an electronic bill paying service or financial institutions that provide online bill payment. If you do arrange for electronic payment through another company or financial institution you will be subject to those companies' terms and conditions and you agree that Sprint will not be responsible or liable for any loss or damage caused or created by those companies.
