Spending Limit.
Clear Pay.
If we agree to provide Services to you as a Clear Pay customer,we
may suspend Services to your Number without prior notice to you
immediately when your bill becomes past due.Even if your bill is not past
due,we may suspend services if your unpaid usage exceeds $125 or another
amount to be determined by your past credit or usage history.If we require a
deposit for you to establish or keep Services as a Clear Pay customer,we will
hold the deposit as partial guarantee of payment for Services (see Deposits,
below).Contact PCS Customer Service Solutions for information about
authorized methods of making these payments.We may charge you a fee for
calls that involve our live customer care services.If we provide Services to
you on as a Clear Pay basis,Services and coverage may be limited in certain
ways.You must pay all charges for Services whether or not your Services are
suspended or terminated.
Deposits.
If we require a deposit for you to establish or keep Services,we will
hold the deposit as partial guarantee of payment for Services.We may change
the deposit amount at any time to reflect revised estimated monthly charges
based upon your usage.A deposit may not be used to pay any invoice (unless it
is used to pay a final invoice) or delay payment.The deposit amount,the
length of time we hold the deposit and changes to the deposit amount are
determined based on your credit and payment history.The rate of interest,if
any,on the deposit is subject to change.We may mix deposits with our other
funds.If Services are terminated for any reason,we may,without notice to
you,apply your deposit toward payment of outstanding charges and return
any excess to you at your last known address within 75 days after termination
of Services.If the U.S.Postal Service cannot deliver the money to you and
returns it to us,we will hold it for you for one year from the date of return and,
during that period,we may charge a servicing fee against the deposit balance.
Any money held during this one-year period will not accrue interest for your
benefit.You forfeit any portion of the money left after the one-year period.

required before we invoice the credit card or debit the bank account for all
amounts due to us or billed by us on behalf of a third party.You must promptly
notify us of any change in your invoicing address or of the credit card or bank
account used for payment.We reserve the right to require payment by money
order,cashier's check or other secured form of payment.If we take action to
receive payment beyond invoicing you for charges for Services or equipment,
you must pay our costs and expenses of collection,including attorneys' fees
and expenses,the fees of any collection agency and court costs.If we act as an
invoicing agent for a third-party service provider,payments received are first
applied to amounts due and owing to us and any remaining amounts are
applied to sums due and owing to the third-party service provider.We may
immediately charge an additional fee for any check or other negotiable
instrument endorsed by you and returned unpaid by a financial institution for
any reason.You may be charged fees for certain methods of payment.
Late Payment Charges.
Payment is past due if we do not receive it by the due
date shown on your invoice.Any payment for Services and equipment not
made when due accrues late charges until paid at the rate of 5% per month or
at the highest rate allowed by law.Acceptance of late or partial payments
(even if marked "paid in full") does not waive our right to collect all amounts
that you owe us.If your Service has been suspended due to non-payment,you
may be charged a reactivation fee.
Disputed Charges.
You must raise any dispute that you have about any charges
invoiced to you within 15 days of the date of the invoice or you have accepted
the invoice.You may notify us of any dispute by notifying PCS Customer
Service Solutions.Calls to our sales or general business offices are not notice
of a dispute.If disputed invoice procedures are described on the invoice,you
must follow them.

Spending Limit basis,we will tell you your Account Spending Limit before we
start Services to your Number,or as reasonably practicable after the limit is
imposed.If we require a deposit for you to establish or keep Services on an
Account Spending Limit basis,we will hold the deposit as partial guarantee of
payment for Services (see Deposits).Charges for Services accrue against your
Account Spending Limit as they are incurred.We may charge an initial ASL

amount at any time upon notice to you.You may pay any past due balance and
