Has anyone read T-Mobiles terms and conditions lately, I just did and found something amazing.
9. * Billing & Credit Checks. We will send you a bill that summarizes your Charges; you may review your bill details on our website at www.my.t-mobile.com or, at your request and for an additional charge, we will provide detailed bills. We do not provide bills for certain services, such as FlexPay, kidConnect and Prepaid. You agree to provide us with accurate and complete billing information and to report all changes within 30 days of the change. We round up any fraction of a minute to the next full minute. Domestic and Puerto Rico data usage is billed in full-kilobyte increments and is rounded up to the next full-kilobyte increment at the end of each data session. (Canada data usage is rounded up in 2 kilobyte increments; all other international data usage is rounded up in 25 kilobyte increments.) There are 1024 kilobytes in a megabyte. Airtime usage is measured from the time the network begins to process the call (before the phone rings or the call is answered) through its termination of the call (after you hang up). Unless otherwise specified in your Rate Plan, the rate for a call (such as nights and weekend rates) is determined by the time the call starts and that rate applies to the entire call. For FlexPay, Prepaid and kidConnect, each minute of a call will be billed according to the time or day applicable to that minute (for example, different rates may apply in one call if the call extends into nights or weekends). For billing related to our Wi-Fi Calling service, see Section 28. T-Mobile-to-T-Mobile calls are those made between T-Mobile customers using their Devices while on the T-Mobile network (and not off-net or roaming on affiliate networks). For Family and other multi-line pooling plans, all lines use and share the air time and features included in the Rate Plan. You may be charged for more than one call when you use certain features resulting in multiple inbound or outbound calls (such as call forwarding, call waiting, voicemail, and conference calling).Most calls you make or receive, and most data usage, during a billing cycle will be included in your bill for that cycle, but some Charges may be delayed to a later billing cycle, which may cause you to exceed Rate Plan Allotments in a later billing cycle. Unused Rate Plan Allotments expire at the end of your billing cycle. Airtime usage applies to toll-free, operator-assisted, voice mail, call forwarding and calling card calls using your Device. You may be billed additional Charges or fees for certain features and services such as operator or directory assistance, data calls or transfers, text, picture and instant messaging and internet access. You will be charged for text, instant or picture messages whether read or unread, solicited or unsolicited. We use filters to block spam messages, but we do not guarantee that you will not receive spam or other unsolicited messages, and you agree that we are not liable for such messages. Credit Checks: You authorize us to obtain information about your credit history from credit-reporting agencies at any time. You understand that a credit inquiry could adversely affect your credit rating. You authorize us to report your payment record to credit-reporting agencies.
