G3 Telecom's long distance service

Terms & Conditions

1. Definitions

"Services" are any and all of the residential and small business long distance voice services and related product offerings provided by G3 Telecom Inc. "G3." "You" means the subscriber to any Services including any person, firm, corporation or other entity that utilizes the Services.

2. Use of Services and Responsibility for Charges

You may use the Services for any purpose, provided that you do so in compliance with all applicable laws and regulatory requirements. You are responsible for paying all charges for the Services, including for all calls and services: (i) made via your telephones or telecommunications systems; (ii) made using any number or authorization code assigned to you, including any calling card number or any other personal identification number assigned to you or selected by you; (iii) which are charged to your account. You are responsible for the security of your authorization codes, and access to your telephones and telecommunications systems. You have acknowledged that you are the person authorized to subscribe for the Services. In the event of a dispute regarding your authorization to subscribe for long distance Services, G3 will accept the local voice subscriber as the sole person so authorized.

3. Acceptable Use

If you subscribe to any of the Unlimited Long Distance Plans, you may not use the Services for anything other than normal residential use. You may not resell the Services or use for commercial purposes, or receive any charge of benefit for the use of the Services. You may not share or transfer your Services without G3's express consent.

Fair Use Policy

Unusually high usage of the Service attributable to individual Accounts may impair G3’s ability to provide the Services and/or indicate misuse of the Services. Accordingly, your use of the Services is subject to reasonable use limitations. For all Unlimited Plans, reasonable use means that your use of the Service does not materially impair G3’s ability to provide the Service to other users. For all “unlimited” Service Plans, reasonable use means that your use of the Service does not exceed 3,000 minutes per month. Except where prohibited by law, G3 reserves the right to immediately disconnect, suspend or modify your Service if your use of the Service violates or it is determined by G3 that your use of the Service violates this reasonable use policy.

4. Charges and Payment

Charges will commence as of the activation date for the applicable Services. G3 will charge you based upon call duration in one minute increments. Call timing will be determined conclusively by G3's network systems. Any fraction of an increment will be treated as an entire increment. You must bring inquiries and disputes regarding charges to G3's attention within 45 days of the charge date or you will be deemed to have accepted the charge as accurate in all respects. Where your Services are cancelled, either by you or by G3, and there is an undisputed credit balance on your account, you may, between the 60th and 180th day after cancellation, require that it be applied to any ongoing or new Services provided to you within 180 days of the cancellation, or that it be refunded to you. If you do not claim your credit balance within the 180 day period, it shall become the property of G3, and any account credits provided by G3 will expire. G3 reserves the right to charge a reasonable processing fee in connection with issuing refunds.

5. Credit

G3 reserves the right to examine your credit record and to require a deposit or other security, including payment by credit card, before it provides, continues, or reinstates Services to you. By subscribing to the Services, you authorize G3 to investigate your creditworthiness and agree, from time to time, to provide appropriate authorizations and financial information as G3 may reasonably request for this purpose.
