Filing Entity: T-Mobile West LLC
State of Idaho
StudyArea Code:o 479013(LegacySupport)
T-Mobile USA,lnc., on behalf of its wholly-owned subsidiary, T-Mobile West LLC
("T-Mobile"), submits the attached Form 481 - Carrier Annual Reporting for its
designation as an Eligible Telecommunications Carrier in the state of Idaho, consistent
with the rules and orders of the Federal Communications Commission ("FCC"),
including 47 C.F.R. SS 54.313 and54.422. T-Mobile completed the attached Form 481
pursuant to the Instructions for Completing FCC Form 481 ("lnstructions") and, as
explained below in accordance with the rules and orders of the FCC. By including
documentation requested by the Form 481 and Instructions, T-Mobile does not waive
its rights or otherwise concede that this documentation is required under the FCC's
rules. In certain instances, as explained below, the Form 481 and Instructions do not
require the submission of information that appears to be required by the FCC rules and
orders; nevertheless, T-Mobile provides this information consistent with the rules and
orders of the FCC. Specifically:o Service Quality worksheet lines 110 - 112 and the Instructions do not require
the submission of a Five-Year Service Quality Improvement Plan and annual
Progress Report, unless the carrier was designated as an ETC by the FCC;
however, the FCC has made clear in its rules and orders that all ETCs must
submit a Progress Report on its Five-Year Service Quality Improvement Plan and
therefore, to the extent not already on file with the FCC, T-Mobile is submitting
its Five-Year Service Quality Improvement Plan, along with its Progress Report
on this plan.
r Lines 320 and 330 and the Instructions provide for the reporting of unfulfilled
service requests for broadband, which the FCC has clarified is not required for
competitive ETC recipients of high cost legacy support, and therefore T-Mobile is
not reporting this information.o Lines 440 and 450 and the Instructions provide for the reporting of complaints
related to broadband service, which the FCC has clarified is not required for
competitive ETC recipients of high cost legacy support, and therefore T-Mobile is
not reporting this information.o Line 510 and the Instructions require ETCs to attach a descriptive document
explaining how an ETC complied with the applicable service quality standards
and consumer protection rulesi however,4T C.F.R. $ 5a.313(a)(5) and 47 C.F.R. $
54.422(b)(3) only require ETCs to certiBr compliance with applicable service
quality standards and consumer protection rules. Without waiving its
objections to providing additional information not required bythe FCC rules, T-
Mobile is submitting documentation of its compliance with applicable service
quality standards and consumer protection rules.o Line 610 and the Instructions require ETCs to attach a descriptive document
explaining how an ETC is able to function in emergency situations; however, 47
C.F.R, $ 54.313(aX6) and 47 C.F.R. S 54.422(b)(4) only require ETCs to certify
that they are able to function in emergency situations. Without waiving its
objections to providing additional information not required by the FCC rules, T-
Mobile is submitting documentation explaining how it is able to function in
emergency situations,o Lines 700 and 710 provide for the completion of the attached worksheet for
voice and broadband price offerings; however, the worksheet is not attached to
Form 481 and the Wireline Competition Bureau has not, to date, specified the
format of the submission of price offerings as required by 47 C.F.R. S
5a.313(aJ(7), and, therefore T-Mobile is not submitting this information.o Lines 1000 and 1010 only applyto ETCs providing fixed voice services and
therefore is not applicable to T-Mobile.
Any questions concerning this filing should be directed to the undersigned.

Functionality in Emergency Situations
REDACTED FOR PUBLIC INSPECTION
EMERGENCY OPERATIONS PLAN
T-Mobile is able to function in emergency situations as set forth in Section
54.201(a)(2), which includes "a demonstration that it has a reasonable amount of back-up
power to ensure functionality without an external power source, is able to reroute traffic
around damaged facilities, and is capable of managing traffic spikes resulting from emergency
situations."l In particular, T-Mobile has the following capabilities to remain functional in
emergency situations:
o Availability of fixed and portable back-up power generators at various network
locations throughout T-Mobile's network that can be deployed in emergency
situations.
. Ability to reroute traffic around damaged or out-of-service facilities through
the deployment of cell-on-wheels ("COWs"), redundant facilities, and dynamic
rerouting of traffic over alternate facilities.
o A network control center that monitors network traffic and anticipates traffic
spikes, and can then (i) deploy network facilities to accommodate capacity
needs, (ii) change call routing translations, and (iii) deploy COWs to
temporarily meet traffic needs until longer-term solutions, such as additional
capacity and antenna towers can be deployed.
o The majority of sites not equipped with fixed generators have battery back-up
systems installed to maintain service in the event of a widespread power
outage.

Tribal Consultation
FCC Rule 54.313(a)(9) requires T-Mobile to consult with the Tribes within its ETC Service
Area on matters related to the provision of telecommunications services on tribal lands.
Specifically, an ETC must demonstrate that it has had "discussions with Tribal governments that,
at a minimum, included:
i. A needs assessment and deployment planning with a focus on Tribal community anchor
institutions;
ii. Feasibility and sustainability planning;
iii. Marketing services in a culturally sensitive manner;iv. Rights of way processes, land use permitting, facilities siting, environmental and cultural
preservation review processes; and
v. Compliance with Tribal business and licensing requirements. Tribal business and
licensing requirements include business practice licenses that Tribal and non-Tribal
business entities, whether located on or off Tribal lands, must obtain upon application to
the relevant Tribal government office or division to conduct any business or trade, or
deliver any goods or services to the Tribes, Tribal members, or Tribal lands. These
include certificates of public convenience and necessity, Tribal business licenses, master
licenses, and other related forms of Tribal government licensure.
T-Mobile's ETC Service Area in Idaho includes the tribal lands of 3 federally recognized
Indian Tribes. T-Mobile has established a tribal consultation process with all federally-
recognized tribes in its ETC Service Area. In particular, in2012, T-Mobile contacted each
federally-recognized tribe within its ETC service area and sent letters that:
. explained the purpose of these communications with the tribe, including outlining the
requirements identified above and the additional guidance provided by the Office of
Native American Programs ("ONAP");
. provided T-Mobile contact information;
. identified T-Mobile facilities and/or cell sites on tribal lands;
REDACTED FOR PUBLIC INSPECTION
identified available T-Mobile rate plans and service offerings; and
requested information in response from the tribes to ensure that T-Mobile meets all
applicable tribal requirements related to:
o Deployment planning with a focus on Tribal community anchor institutions;
o Feasibility and sustainability planning;
o Marketing services in a culturally sensitive manner;
o Rights of way processes, land use permitting, facilities siting, environmental and
cultural preservation review processes;
o Compliance with Tribal business and licensing requirements; and,
o Any other needs, questions or concerns that the tribes may have.
An example of the letters that T-Mobile sent is included as Attachment l.
The Indian Tribes that have a presence within T-Mobile's ETC Service Area in Idaho are
identified in Attachment 2, along with a summary of the contacts that T-Mobile had with each
during 2012. Thereafter, T-Mobile contacted the tribes by email and/or phone in an attempt to
address any questions or concems. T-Mobile continues to consult with the tribes within its ETC
Service Area regarding the provision of telecommunications services on tribal lands as part of its
on-going obligations as an ETC in Idaho.

Rates, Terms and Conditions of Lifeline Plans
REDACTED FOR PUBLIC INSPECTION
T-MOBILE LIFELINE RATES, TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF SERVICE
General Information
Upon designation as an Eligible Telecommunications Carrier ("ETC"), T-Mobile made
available Lifeline service offerings to qualified low-income consumers that meet all applicable
Lifeline requirements based on federal and state rules and orders governing the Low Income
mechanism of the Federal Universal Service Fund ("FUSF"). T-Mobile has implemented the
internal controls and processes to ensure compliance with the FCC's rules and all applicable
requirements.
In particular, T-Mobile has implemented processes to ensure that only eligible consumers
obtain Lifeline Service. T-Mobile directly administers its Lifeline program and the application
of benefits. T-Mobile does not contract with third party agencies to verify eligibility for Lifeline,
other than when required or allowed to rely upon information provided by a state selected entity
to verify eligibility of qualified consumers. Specific T-Mobile representatives are trained to
review and validate applications for eligibility based on the applicable rules in any given
jurisdiction, and the same representatives are trained to follow all applicable rules related to
document handling and retention in addition to other matters that impact low-income benefit
applicants. Verification of eligibility for Lifeline occurs prior to enabling Lifeline discounted
service for any qualifying consumer.

REDACTED FOR PUBLIC INSPECTION
T-Mobile's Lifeline service offerings provide consumers with access to traditional local
voice services that are supported by the low-income mechanism of the FUSF and several other
consumer benefits. For example, calls to 9l I and to customer service (dialing 6l I from the
mobile handset) will be free calls, regardless of whether the customer has sufficient remaining
minutes available in their account, and those calls will not be deducted from the monthly
included minutes or charged as additional minutes. Additionally, qualified consumers who
subscribe to T-Mobile's Lifeline offerings are not charged a fee for local number portability or
the FUSF. In addition to local voice services, Lifeline customers will also have the ability to use
their phone throughout T-Mobile's nationwide network and T-Mobile roaming partner networks.
Lifeline service includes many standard calling features at no additional charge, including voice
mail, caller identification and call-waiting services.
Customers who receive Lifeline benefrts may also have access to other services such as
directory assistance, international dialing and other information type services that are charged
'T-Mobile offers a $13.50 discount consistent with its original designating order. T-Mobile only seeks
reimbursement for the $9.25 federal Lifeline discount amount from the FUSF. For residents of tribal lands, T-
Mobile offers an additional discount of up to $25.00.
'Taxes and fees additional.

per use depending on the offering they select. These services, if provided, are available on a pay
per use basis and the current charges for these services are made available to customers at the
time of activation, on the applicable website for the service offering, and upon request by dialing
6l I (a free call from a T-Mobile phone). Lifeline customers will have the option to decline or
block such services at no additionalcharge.
In addition to its traditional T-Mobile brand offerings, T-Mobile also offers Lifeline
benefits on a product that is made available through an exclusive partnership with Walmart. The
product is known as Family Mobile, powered by T-Mobile (Family Mobile). Family Mobile
service is sold exclusively through Walmart and offers customers the same great quality service
that T-Mobile offers its direct customers as well as access to some services and features. Family
Mobile customers who qualify for Lifeline service will receive all the traditional benefits of T-
Mobile Lifeline offerings described above and will be able to make payments in store, by phone
or online at no additional charge.
In the future, T-Mobile may also make available other Lifeline service offerings to
qualified low-income consumers, consistent with all applicable requirements.
Lifeline Terms and Conditions of Services
Lifeline consumers must meet all applicable eligibility requirements to obtain Lifeline
service from T-Mobile. As an eligible Lifeline consumer, customers of T-Mobile will be
subject to all applicable federal and state requirements governing Lifeline service. Lifeline
customers must also comply with the terms and conditions Lifeline service. T-Mobile does not
require its Lifeline customers to complete a credit check nor is a Lifeline qualified consumer
required to commit to a service agreement term based solely on the fact that s/he is qualified to
receive Lifeline benefrts. The current terms and conditions for T-Mobile are included as
REDACTED FOR PUBLIC INSPECTION
Attachment 1 and are set forth in the T-Mobile Terms and Conditions available at rvlvw:J:
mobile.com. The current terms and conditions for the Family Mobile Offerings are included as
Attachment 2 and are set forth in the Family Mobile Services Agreement available at
wwr,v.mr-l'amilymobile.com. To the extent T-Mobile makes available other Lifeline service
offerings in the future, the terms and conditions of service will be consistent with all applicable
requirements.
Additionally, T-Mobile has prepared applications for Lifeline benefits that meet all
applicable requirements within each jurisdiction that the Company provides Lifeline service and
contain specific terms and conditions for customers receiving Lifeline benefits. T-Mobile's
standard Lifeline application was reviewed and approved by the Federal Communications
Commission3 and is updated periodically based upon changes in applicable requirements,
including revisions to the Federal Poverty Guidelines. T-Mobile makes is Lifeline application
available to consumers via its website, upon request which can be made in writing, by email or
by phone, and in other areas where consumers who are likely to qualify may have access.
Because a state administrator is responsible for validating the eligibility of non-tribal
consumers for Lifeline benefrts, T-Mobile's Lifeline application in Idaho is available for use by
consumers who are also residents of federally recognized tribal lands and includes all of the
language required by applicable federal rules. In particular, T-Mobile prominently includes the
following notifications in its Lifeline applications:
Lifeline is a Federal benefit that is not transferrable to any other person;
Lifeline service is available for only one line per household. A household cannot
receive benefits from multiple providers;
3 See In the Matter of Petition of T-Mobile USA, Inc. for Designation as a Low-Income Eligible
Telecommunications Carrier, et al,WC Docket 09-197,DA 12-1339, August 16,2012 (T-Mobile FCC
ETC Designation).
REDACTED FOR PUBLIC INSPECTION
A household is defined, for purposes of the Lifeline program, as any individualor
group of individuals living at the same address that share income and expenses;
and
Violation of the one-per household rule is not permitted under federal rules and
will result in the subscriber's de-enrollment from the program and possible
criminal prosecution by the U.S. Government.
T-Mobile also requires that consumers certify to and acknowledge the following with
respect to their application for Lifeline benefits:
The information provided in this Application is true and correct to the best of
my knowledge; I acknowledge that willfully providing false or fraudulent
information in order to receive Lifeline service is punishable by fine or
imprisonment, termination of all Lifeline benefits, and being barred from
participating in the Lifeline program.
I am eligible for Lifeline service through participation in the qualifying
program(s) or meeting the income requirements as identified above.
I have provided documentation of eligibility for Lifeline service, unless
otherwise specifically exempted from providing such documentation, and the
documentation I have provided demonstrates my eligibility. If ['ve provided
income documentation other than a prior year's state, federal, or tribaltax
return, I've submitted three consecutive months worth of the same type of
document within the current calendar year. I understand that submitted
documents will not be returned.
I understand that I am required to inform T-Mobile within 30 days of any
potential change in eligibility, including, but not limited to: (i) a move or
change of address; (ii) any change in participation in the programs identified
above or change in income or Household members; (iii) receiving Lifeline
service from another provider; or (iv) any other change that would affect my
eligibility for Lifeline service from T-Mobile; and that any failure to do so
may result in penalties including loss of Lifeline benefits (among other
things).
I have provided the address where I currently reside and, if a temporary
address has been provided, then I acknowledge that T-Mobile may attempt to
verify my address every 90 days, and, if I do not respond to verification
attempts within 30 days, then my Lifeline service may be terminated.
My Household will receive only one Lifeline benefit and, to the best of my
knowledge, no one in my Household is currently receiving Lifeline service
REDACTED FOR PUBLIC INSPECTION
from any other provider, wireline or wireless, postpaid, prepaid or free.
I acknowledge that I will be required to annually re-certifu eligibility and may
be required to re-certifr continued eligibility for Lifeline at any time and
failure to re-certiff will result in the termination of Lifeline beneftts or other
penalties.
I authorize T-Mobile and its agents to access any records (including financial
records) required to verify my statements herein and to confirm my eligibility
for Lifeline service. I authorize government agencies and their authorized
representatives to discuss with and/or provide information to T-Mobile and its
agents verifying my participation in public assistance programs that qualify
me for Lifeline service.
. I acknowledge that T-Mobile may, and I give my consent for T-Mobile to,
provide my personal information, including my name, address, and telephone
number among other items as required, to the Universal Service
Administrative Company for the purposes of verifying that neither I, nor
anyone else in my Household, receive more than one Lifeline benefit.
A copy of the Lifeline application that T-Mobile makes available to tribal consumers to use to
apply for Lifeline services is included as Attachment 3.
Finally, T-Mobile makes it possible for tribal consumers to apply for Lifeline benefits
online. T-Mobile's online application mirrors its hard copy application, including all of the
above identified notifications and certifications and allows consumers the opportunity to
immediately provide all supporting documentation for their application, which facilitates a faster
approval process. Some other benefrts to applying for Lifeline service with T-Mobile online
include that the consumer completes the application by inputting their personal information and
answering questions to determine if they qualify, which may be easier to understand for some
consumers, and the online application requires consumers to create a log in id and password to
secure their information which also allows them to return to the application to update it as
necessary or to check on its status.

the collection agency may pursue, in small claims court, claims limited strictly to the collection of the past due amounts and any
interest or cost of collection permitted by law or the Agreement.
lf the arbitration provision applies or you choose arbitration to resolve your disputes, then either you or we may start
arbitration proceedings. You must send a letter requesting arbitration and describing your claim to our registered agent (see Sec.
16) to begin arbitration. The American Arbitration Association (AAA) will arbitrate all disputes. For claims of less than $75,000, the
AAA's Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes will apply; for claims over $75,000, the AAA's Commercial
Arbitration_Rules wrll_appfu. _f lre_ AtA ru.leS^arc lva[able at www.adr.orq or by calling 1-800-778-7879. Upon filing of the arbitration
demand, 'ffinAffim fin$ EeHfiKTIIIHfSGTJ,{rNator tees tor ctaifrs thit total [ess than $75,000. For claimJ that total more
than $75,000, the payment of filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA Commercial Arbitration Rules.
An arbitrator may award on an individual basis any relief that would be avallable in a court, including injunctive or declaratory relief
and attorneys'fees. ln addition, for claims under $75,000 as to which you provided notice and negotiated in good faith as required
above before initiating arbitration, if the arbitrator finds that you are the prevailing party in the arbitration, you will be entitled to a
recovery of reasonable attorneys' fees and costs. Except for claims determined to be frivolous, T-Mobile agrees not to seek an
award of attorneys' fees in arbitration even if an award is othenruise available under applicable law. Puerto Rico customers: Refer
to Section 15 for details of the Puerto Rico Telecommunications Dispute Procedure.
CLASS ACTION WAIVER. WE EACH AGREE THAT ANY PROCEEDINGS, WHETHER IN ARBITRATION OR COURT, WILL
BE CONDUCTED ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT IN A CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION OR AS A
MEMBER lN A CLASS, CONSOLIDATED OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTaON. lf a court or arbitrator determines in an aclion
between you and us that this Class Action Waiver is unenforceable, the arbitration agreement will be void as to you. !f you choose
to pursue your claim in court by opting out of the arbitration provision as specified above, this Class Action Waiver
provision will not apply to you. Neither you, nor any other customer, can be a class representative, class member, or
othenrise participate in a class, consolidated, or representative proceeding without having complied with the opt out
requirements above.
JURY TRIAL WAIVER. lf a claim proceeds in court rather than through arbitration, WE EACH WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO A JURY
TRIAL.
3. * Your Term of Service and Early Termination Fees. Your "Term" is the period of time for which you have agreed to maintain
Service with us. Periods of suspension of Service do not count toward your Term. After your Term, you will become a month-lo-
month customer. Except for month-to-month customers, AN EARLY TERMINATION FEE WILL APPLY TO EACH LINE OF
SERVICE IF YOU DO NOT MAINTAIN YOUR AGREED-UPON SERV]CES THROUGH THE END OF YOUR TERM FOR THAT
LINE OF SERVICE, OR lF WE TERMINATE YOUR SERVICE EARLY (see Section 19). THE EARLY TERMINATION FEE lS:
$200 lF TERMTNATION OCCURS WITH MORE THAN 180 DAYS REMAINING ON YOUR TERM; ${00|F TERMINATION
OCCURS WITH 91 TO 180 DAYS REMAINING ON YOUR TERM; $50 lF TERMINATION OCGURS WITH 31 TO 90 DAYS
REMAINING ON YOUR TERM; AND THE LESSER OF $50 OR YOUR MONTHLY RECURRING CHARGES (including any
applicable taxes and fees) IF TERMINATION OCCURS IN THE LAST 30 DAYS OF YOUR TERM. Some Devices require
maintaining certain features or Services (e.9. a data plan) as part of your Rate Plan, and cancelling them before the end of your
Term will result in an Early Termination Fee. The Early Termination Fee is part of our rates and is not a penalty. The Early
Termination Fee applies only to the extent permitted by law. lf you terminate your Service, your termination will be effective at the
end of your currenl billing cycle, and you will remain responsible for all fees and Charges for your Service and usage through the
end of that billing cycle. lf we terminate your Service, we will determine the date of termination, and you will be responsible for all
usage and Charges through the date of termination. You can request that we port your number to another carrier, and Service for
that number will be terminated when the porting is complete. lf you port your number, you will be responsible for all usage and
Charges through the end of your current billing cycle. lf you bought your wireless Device from a Dealer, they may charge a
separate fee associated with cancellation.
4. * Cancellation and Returns. Service Cancellation: You can cancel a new line of Service without paying an Early Termination
Fee if you cancel WITHIN 14 DAYS of activating a new line of Service (30 days in California; other states may differ - ask your
sales representative) ("Cancellation Period"). You remain responsible for all Charges incurred through the date of cancellation. To
cancel Service during the Cancellation Period, you may be required to go to the place where you activated Service and return any
T-Mobile Device you acquired at the time of activation. You must return your T-Mobile Device in its package with all orlginal
contents, undamaged and in good working condition with no material alterations to the Device's hardware or software. lf you do not
return your T-Mobile Device or if you return your T-Mobile Device in a damaged, altered or destroyed condition, we may take one or
more of the following actions: (a) prevent your T-Mobile Device from working on any network; (b) charge you the Early Termination
Fee; (c) elect not to process your Service cancellation; or (d) charge you the suggested retail price or the cost to repair a T-Mobile
Device, (which may be greater than the price you paid), plus any shipping and handling charges. Device Refunds and Restockinq
Fees: For T-Mobile Device and accessory returns and exchanges, see the applicable return policy, which is available at your place
of purchase. Some T-Mobile Devices and accessories may not be refunded or exchanged, and you may be required to pay a
restocking fee.
5. Changes to Your Service. You may be unable to change your Rate Plan, including services and features associated with your
Rate Plan. You may request to change to another Rate Plan during your Term, and if we authorize the change, you may be
charged a migration fee of up to $200 for each line of service, and you may continue to be bound to your existing Term or an
extended Term. The amount of the migration fee will decrease as the time remaining on your Term decreases. For specific
informalion about changing your Rate Plan, including migration fee details, call T-Mobile.
6. Our Rights to Make Changes. This provision, which describes how changes may be made to your Agreement, is subject to
requirements and limitations imposed by applicable law, and will not be enforced to the extent prohibited by law. Your Service is
subject to our business policies, practices, and procedures, which we can change without notice. WE CAN CHANGE ANY TERMS
IN THE AGREEMENT AT ANY TIME. YOU MAY CANCEL THE AFFECTED LINE OF SERVICE WITHOUT AN EARLY
TERMINATION FEE (if applicable) lF: (A) WE CHANGE YOUR PRICING lN A MANNER THAT MATERIALLY INCREASES YOUR

THE CHANGES.
7. * Your Wireless Device & Compatibility with Other Networks. Your T-Mobile Device may not be compatible with the network
and services provided by another service provider. You may buy a Device from us or someone else, but it must, as solely
determined by T-Mobile, be compatible with, and not potentially harm, our network. Some T-Mobile features will be available only
on T-Mobile Devices purchased from us. A T-Mobile Device is designed to be used only with T-Mobile Service. You may be eligible
to have your T-Mobile Device reprogrammed to work with another carrier, but you must contact us to do so. Not all T-Mobile
Devices are capable of being reprogrammed. T-Mobile reserves the right to prevent your Device from being used on our network.
At times we may remotely change software, syslems, applications, features or programming on your Device without notice to
address security, safety or other issues that impact the T-Mobile network or your Device" These changes will modify your Device
and may affect or erase data you have stored on your Device, the way you have programmed your Device, or the way you use your
Device. We may offer you changes to systems, applications, features or programming remotely to your Device; you will not be able
to use your Device during the installation of the changes even for emergencies.
8. Service Availability. Coverage maps only approximate our anticipated wireless coverage area outdoors; actual Service area,
coverage and quality may vary and change without notice depending on a variety of factors including network capacity, terrain and
weather. Outages and interruptions in Service may occur, and speed of Service varies. You agree we are not liable for problems
relating to Service availability or quality.
9. Important Emergency and 9-1-1 lnformation and Emergency Alerts. When making a 9-1-1 call, always state the nature of
your emergency and provide both your location and phone number, as the operator may not automatically receive this information.
T-Mobile is not responsible for failures to connect or complete 9-1-1 calls or if inaccurate location information is provided.
9-1-1 service may not be available or reliable and your ability to receive emergency services may be impeded. We may use
a variety of information and methods to determine the location of a 9-1-1 call, including Global Positioning Satellites, our wireless
network, the street address you have provided us as your primary use location ("Primary Address"), or the location of a T-Mobile
HotSpot. Even with this information, an emergency operator may not be able to locate you in order to provide emergency services.
Other third party entities are involved in connecting a 9-1-1 call and T-Mobile does not determine the public safety agency to which
your 9-1-1 call is routed. lf you are porting a phone number to or from us, we may not be able to provide you with some Services,
such as 9-1-1 location services, while the port is being implemented. lf you dial 9-1-1 while outside the U.S., 9-1-1 services may not
be available. Wi-Fi and 9-1-1 Service: 9-1-1 service using Wi-Fi uses the internet and operates differently than traditional 9-1-1.
For example, 9-1-1 service may not work during power or internet (e.9., cable service) outages or disruptions or if your internet or
T-Mobile Service are suspended. Location information when using Wi-Fi may be limited or unavailable. You must provide us with a
Primary Address. lf the location at which you primarily use Wi-Fi changes, either temporarily or permanently, you must register the
new address via www.mv.T-Mobile.com or by contacting T-Mobile's Customer Care; it may take 24 hours or more to update the
address information. lf you do not give us a Primary Address, we may block your usage of certain Wi-Fi networks. When you call
over Wi-Fi away from your Primary Address, we may have no or very limited information about your location. Emerqencv Alerts. T-
Mobile has chosen to offer wireless emergency alerts, within portions of its coverage area, on wireless alert capable Devices. There
is no additional charge for these wireless emergency alerts. For details on the availability of this service and wireless emergency
alert capable Devices, please visit '.;i. r 1 .l''l:rlrli i'i::'i'r.
10. * Billing. You agree to pay all Charges we bill you or that were accepted or processed through your Device. For
disputed Charges, see Section 15. 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. Airtime usage is measured from the time
the network begins to process a 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. lf we cannot determine the time of your call, we may base the time on the
local time associated with your billing address. For some products, such as FlexPay and Prepaid, 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). 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-network or roaming on affiliate networks). You may be charged for more than one call/message when
you use certain features resulting in multiple inbound or outbound calls/messages (such as call forwarding, call waiting, voicemail,
conference calling, and multi-party messaging). Most usage and Charges incurred during a billing cycle will be included in your bill
for that cycle. Some usage and 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 all
calls processed through your Device, including toll-free, operator-assisted, voice mail, call forwarding and calling card calls. You
may be billed additional Charges or fees for certain features and services such as operator or directory assistance, data calls or
transfers, messaging, internet access and applications. Third-Partv Service Provider Billinq: Your Device can be used to
purchase services and products from third-party providers (e.9., games, apps, ringtones, etc.) and Charges for these purchases
may be included on your T-Mobile bill. You can block those purchases of third-party products or services by visiting r,r,,,;, ,
i'.i,::::r .ii;:: or calling T-Mobile. Data Usaqe and Messaqino: Data usage is rounded up to the next full-kilobyte increment at the
end of each data session. At the end of your billing cycle, or at the time you switch data plans, your total kilobytes are then rounded
up to the next megabyte. There are 1,024 kilobytes in one megabyte. You will be charged for text, instant or picture messages, and
email whether read or unread, sent or received, 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 we are not liable for such messages. Additional
blocking options are available at www.my.T-Mobile.com. Wi-Fi Billino: Billing for Wi-Fi usage will be based on the network (Wi-Fi
or cellular) to which your Device was connected at the start of the call or other Service. Check your Device indicator and manual to
know if you are on a cellular or Wi-Fi network. Additional incoming and outgoing calls initiated while you are already connected to a
network (e.9., call waiting, call forwarding, conference calling) also are billed based upon the network upon which the original call
was initiated. Calls mav droo if vou move between Wi-Fi networks or between Wi-Fi networks and a cellular network. We will bill
you base&fiQ4$ifiR[t0BrBtbBbilqffiE\,S9f,+e[ilrork (or a nearby cell tower) if we know its location. lf we are unable to
determine the location of the Wi-Fi network, we may base the time of the call on the local time of your billing address, which can
affect the designation of your calls such as a night or weekend call.
11. * Data Plans and Other Features. You will be charged for data usage on a pay per use basis unless you are required to
maintain a data plan ("Data Plan") as part of your Service, or as otherwise provided by your Rate Plan or prepaid data pass.
Permissible and Prohibited Uses: Your Data Plan is intended for Web browsing, messaging, and similar activities on your Device
and not on any other equipment. Unless explicitly permitted by your Data Plan, other uses, including for example, using your Device
as a modem or tethering your Device to a personal computer or other hardware, are not permltted. Other examples of prohibited
uses can be found in Section 18. Protective Measures: To provide a good experience for the majority of our customers and
minimize capacity issues and degradation in network performance, we may take measures including temporarily reducing data
throughput for a subset of customers who use a disproportionate amount of bandwidth. ln addition, if your total usage exceeds 5GB
(amount is subject to change without notice; please check T-Mobile's T&Cs on i.!'.'r'.': I i,1'- i,.:i* ..iir.rr for updates) during a billing
cycle, we may reduce your data speed for the remainder of that billing cycle. lf you use your Data Plan in a manner thal could
interfere with other customers' service, affect our ability to allocate network capacity among customers, or degrade service quality
for other customers, we may suspend, terminate, or restrict your data session, or switch you to a more appropriate Data Plan. We
also manage our network to facilitate the proper functioning of services that require consistent high speeds, such as video calling,
which may, particularly at times and in areas of network congestion, result in reduced speeds for other services. Additionally, we
may implement other network management praclices, such as caching less data, using less capacity, and sizing video more
appropriately for a Device to transmit data files more efficiently. These practices are agnostic to the content itself and to the
websites that provide it. While we avoid changing text, image, and video files in the compression process when practical, the
process may impact the appearance of files as displayed on your Device. Downloadable Content and Applications: Content or
Applications (e.9., downloadable or networked applications, wallpapers, ringtones, games, and productivity tools) ("Content &
Apps") that you can purchase with your Device may not be sold by T-Mobile. For some third party purchases, although the charges
may appear on your T-Mobile bill, T-Mobile is not responsible for the Content & Apps, including download, installation, use,
transmission failure, interruption, or delay, or any content or website you may be able to access through the Content & Apps.
Unless otherwise stated, any support questions for these Content & Apps may be directed to the third party seller. You may be able
to restrict access and certain services by implementing controls available at,.','.',r 'i :r1 )i,ili r;:l-r or by calling T-Mobile. When you
use, download or install Content & Apps sold by a third party seller, you may be subject to license terms between you and third
parties. When you use, download, or install Content & Apps that you purchase from T-Mobile, the Content & Apps are licensed to
you by T-Mobile and may be subject to additional license terms between you and third parties. Whether purchased from T-Mobile or
a third party, any Content & Apps you purchase are licensed for personal, lawful, non-commercial use on your Device only. You
may not transfer, copy, or reverse engineer any Content & Apps, or alter, disable or circumvent any digital rights management
security features embedded in the Content & Apps. Content & Apps may not be transferable from one Device to another Device.
Some Devices or Content & Apps may continue to have contact with our network without your knowledge, which may result in
additional Charges, for example, while roaming internationally. Software on your Device may automatically shut down or limit the
use of Content & Apps or other features or Services without warning. T-Mobile is not responsible for any third party content,
advertisements, or websites you may be able to access using your Device. Use of lnformation: T-Mobile may retain, use, and
share information collected when you download, use, or install some Content & Apps, may update your Content & Apps remotely,
or may disable or remove any Content & Apps at any time. Refer to T-Mobile's Privacy Policy, as well as the Content & Apps
creator/owner's privacy policy for information regarding their use of information collected when you download, install, or use any
third party Content & Apps. We are not responsible for any transmission failure, interruption, or delay related to Content & Apps, or
any content or website you may be able to access through the Content & Apps. Wi-Fi Callinq: You acknowledge and agree that
your use of any Wi-Fi network is permissible and that you (and not T-Mobile) are responsible for your use. Cell Broadcasts (alerts
that go to certain customers), Emergency Alerts and Wireless Priority Service (WPS) may not be available with Wi-Fi Calling.
12.* Roaming and lnternational Calling. Roaming: Your Device may connect to another provider's network ("Off-Net") even
when you are within the T-Mobile coverage area. Check your Device to determine if you are Off-Net. There may be extra Charges
(including long distance, tolls, data usage) and higher rates for Off-Net usage, depending on your Rate Plan, and your quality and
availability of service may vary significantly. You must use your Device predominantly within the T-Mobile owned network coverage
area. lf your Off-Net domestic voice usage, data usage or messaging usage exceeds your Rate Plan Allotment, you will be alerted
and your access to Off-Net coverage may be suspended or denied. We may also limit or terminate your Service in our discretion
and without prior notice if you no longer reside in a T-Mobile-owned network coverage area, if more than 5O% of your voice and/or
data usage is Off-Net for any three billing cycles within any 12 month period, if your Off-Net usage makes it uneconomical for T-
Mobile to provide Service to you, or if related lo T-Mobile's arrangements with an Off-Net provider. lnternational Roaminq &
Dialinq: lnternational roaming and dialing are available with some Rate Plans and on some Devices and may require an additional
feature on your account. Whether roaming internationally or making and sending international calls and messages while in the U.S.
(or Puerto Rico), you will be charged international rates (including for voicemails left for you and for data usage). This includes per
minute rates for calls and, while roaming internationally, per minute rates for calls transferred to your voicemail and the relevant
data rates for data usage. You may be charged for more than one call for unanswered calls that are fonrarded to voicemail
regardless of whether the calls result in an actual voicemail message being left for you and regardless of whether your phone is on
or off. Some Devices and applications may incur usage and Charges while roaming. You may be able to disable these applications
and features through your Device settings. Different rates and rounding increments apply in different countries. See ",''..i ,
l.l,::,,'.: : ,r:, for information on internalional access, rates, Services and coverage. While roaming internationally, your data
throughput may be reduced and your Service may be otherwise limited or terminated at any time without notice.
13. * Taxes, Fees, and Surcharges. Taxes and Fees. You agree to pay all taxes and fees imposed by governments or
governmental entities. We may not give advance notice of changes to taxes & fees. To determine taxes & fees, we will use the
street address you identified as your Place of Primary Use ("PPU"). The PPU for Puerto Rico customers must be in Puerto Rico. lf
you did not identify the correct PPU, or if you provided an address (such as a PO box) that is not a recognized street address, does
not identifathg ?BpjSablejAlinS-iufiCdjettslrspr g!-qqs- lot reflect the Service area associated with your telephone number, you may

-being assigned, any tax iefund -
must be requested within 60 days of our notification to you that the tax has been assessed. Surcharqes. You agree to pay all
Surcharges. Surcharges are not mandated by law, they are T-Mobile Charges that are collected and retained by T-Mobile. The
components and amounts of these Charges are subject to change without notice. Surcharges include, but are not limited to
charges, costs, fees and certain taxes T-Mobile incurs to provide Services (and are not government taxes or fees imposed directly
on our customers that we must collect by law). Examples include general and administrative fees (such as certain costs we incur to
provide Service) as well as governmental-related Surcharges (such as Federal or State Universal Service fees, regulatory fees, and
gross receipts taxes). Surcharges will apply whether or not you benefit from the programs, activities or services included in the
Surcharge. You can find the Surcharges in either the "Taxes, Fees & Surcharges" or the "Other Charges" section of your bill.
14. * Payments, Late Fees, Deposits, and Credit Checks. lf we do not receive payment in full by the due date on your bill, you
may be charged a late fee of the greater of 1 .5o/o per month (18% annually) or $S/month, subject to the maximum allowed by law.
We may use a collection agency and you agree to pay collection agency fees we incur to collect payment. lf we accept late or
partial payments, we do not waive our right to collect all amounts that you owe, including late fees. lf your check, electronic funds
transfer payment, including debit or Automated Clearing House payment, or any other payment is dishonored or returned, we may
charge you $35, or the maximum amount allowed under applicable law. We may also require you to use another payment method,
and/or immediately suspend or cancel your Service. We will not honor limiting notations you make on or with your checks. Late
payment, non-payment or collection agency fees are liquidated damages intended to be a reasonable advance estimate of our
costs resulting from late payments and non-payments by our customers; these costs are not readily ascertainable and are difficult
to predict or calculate at the time that these fees are set. Deposits: We may require a deposit. You agree that only we can apply
deposits, payments, or prepayments in any order to any amounts you owe us on any account and that you may be required to
increase or replace your deposit amount. We refund deposits and final credit balances upon request, unless otherwise required by
law. We pay simple interest on deposits at the rate the law requires.
Credit Ghecks: 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.
Puerto Rico customers: This paragraph constitutes notice that your Service may be suspended or cancelled if you do not pay in
full within the time stated on your bill or if your financial institution dishonors or returns a check for any reason, including for
insufficient funds.
15. * Your Right to Dispute Charges. Unless otherwise provided by law, you agree to notify us of any dispute regarding your bill
or Charges to your account within 60 days (20 days for Puerto Rico customers) after the date you first receive the disputed bill or
Charge. lf you do not notify us of your dispute in writing within this time period, you may not pursue a claim in arbitration or in court.
Except for Puerto Rico customers and unless otherwise provided by law, you must pay disputed Charges until the dispute is
resolved. lf you accept a credit, refund or other compensation or benefit to resolve a disputed bill or charge, you agree that the
issue is fully and finally resolved. For unresolved disputes see Section 2 above. To contact or notify us, see Section 16. This
paragraph is notice to Puerto Rico customers that payment of undisputed Charges is due when stated on your bill, regardless of
any dispute.

be deducted from your FlexAccount. FlexAccount dollars you transfer to pay your bill in excess of the Amount Due cannot be

Services not used are refunded. lf you cancel your FlexPay account after the Cancellation Period, we may apply your FlexAccount
balance to any amounts you owe us (including any Early Termination Fees). Funds in your Monthly Account will not be refunded if
you cancel after the Cancellation Period. Month-To-Month Plans: To avoid cancellation and keep your accounl active, you must,

amount stated on your Payment Reminder, you must pay the Amount Due as stated on www.mv.T-Mobile.com to continue
Service. lf you do not pay the Amount Due by the date on your Payment Reminder, your monthly Services will not be
available. lf you pay after the date on your Payment Reminder, the Amount Due and the Service allotments you receive will be
prorated for the number of days remaining in your Service cycle. Partial Pavment: lf you partially pay, your Services will not be
available until your partial payment is equal to or greater than the prorated Charges for Service for the remaining days in your
Service cycle. The Allotments you receive will be prorated based on the number of days remaining in that Service cycle. Pavment
in Last Five Davs: To start Services during the last live days of the Service cycle, you must pay for those days plus the Amount
Due for the following Service cycle. lf you do not pay that full amount, then your payment will be applied as a partial payment
toward the Amount Due for the next month's Service cycle. Extension of Term: lf you are on a one or two-year contract, your Term
may be extended by the total number of days for which you have not paid for monthly Services (e.g., if you only pay for prorated

one Amount Due for all lines on a multi-line account, and any payments will be applied proportionately across all lines and all

automatic monthly recurring payment Service). The Control Charge may apply for at least one Service cycle after you sign up for

from your account without notice if we determine in our sole discretion that the account is invalid or if an EasyPay payment fails.
Voluntarv Susoension. We may allow you to voluntarily suspend Services and any amounts in your Monthly Account or unused
Allotments will not be refunded or credited. Upon voluntary suspension, your Services and FlexAccount will no longer be available
for use. To maintain the voluntary suspension and avoid cancellation, you must pay a monthly access fee and the Control Charge

Family Mobile Terms and Conditions
REDACTED FOR PUBLIC INSPECTION
Family Mobile Terms & Conditions
Effective December 27, 201 l.
Your wireless service is provided by T-Mobile USA, Inc. including its affiliates, assignees, and
agents ("T-Mobile"). Your agreement for wireless service branded as "Walmart Family Mobile
Powered by T-Mobile" ("Family Mobile") is with T-Mobile, and includes these Terms and
Conditions ("T&Cs"), your Service Agreement, applicable supplemental terms and conditions,
and your Rate Plan terms, which are available online and at store locations (collectively,
"Agreement"). Your Rate Plan includes your monthly Service allotments for minutes, messages
or data ("Allotments"), rates, coverage and other terms ("Rate Plan"). To the extent any term in
your Rate Plan expressly conflicts with these T&Cs, the term in your Rate Plan will govern.
Your Agreement applies to each line of Service, although different T&Cs may apply to different
lines of Service on your account.
Please read these T&Cs carefully. They cover important information about the services
provided to you ("Service"); your phone, handset, device, SIM card, data card, or other
equipment or third party device used with the Family Mobile Service ("Device"); and any access
and usage charges, taxes, fees and other charges we bill you or that were accepted or processed
through your Device ("Charges"). These T&Cs include fees for early termination and late
payments, limitations of liability, privacy and resolution of disputes by arbitration instead
of in court.
You, and any authorized users on your account will have access to account information and may
be able to make changes to the account. If you give your personal account validation
information to someone, they can access and make changes to your account. Those changes
will be binding on you. You may request to switch to another Rate Plan, and if we authorize the
change, fees may apply.Authorized changes may require your agreement to a new minimum
term and/or new T&Cs.
1. Acceptance. YOUR AGREEMENT STARTS WHEN YOU ACCEPT. You represent that
you are at least 18 years old and you are legally authorized to enter into this Agreement. You
accept your Agreement by doing any of the following: (a) giving us a written or electronic
signature, or telling us orally that you accept; (b) activating Service; (c) using your Service after
you make a change or addition; (d) paying for the Service or a "Family Mobile Device" (a
Device purchased from Walmart for use with the Family Mobile Service); or (e) opening the
Family Mobile Device box or failing to activate Service within 30 days after the purchase of
your Family Mobile Device, unless returned within the Cancellation Period (as defined in
Section 4). IF YOU DON'T WANT TO ACCEPT, DON'T DO ANY OF THESE THINGS.
2. * Dispute Resolution and Arbitration. WE EACH AGREE THAT, EXCEPT AS
PROVIDED BELOW, ANY AND ALL CLAIMS OR DISPUTES IN AIIY WAY
RELATED TO OR CONCERNING THE AGREEMENT, OUR SERVICES, DEVICES
OR PRODUCTS,INCLUDING ANY BILLING DISPUTES, WILL BE RESOLVED BY
BINDING ARBITRATION, RATHER THAN IN COURT. This includes any claims against
other parties relating to Services or Devices provided or billed to you (such as our suppliers,
REDACTED FOR PUBLIC INSPECTION
dealers or third party vendors) whenever you also assert claims against us in the same
proceeding. We each also agree that the Agreement affects interstate commerce so that the
Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply (despite the choice of law provision in
Section 26). THERE IS NO JUDGE OR JURY IN ARBITRATION, AND COURT REVIEW
OF AN ARBITRATION AWARD IS LIMITED. THE ARBITRATOR MUST FOLLOW THIS
AGREEMENT AND CAN AWARD THE SAME DAMAGES AND RELIEF AS A COURT
(INCLUDING ATTORNEYS' FEES).
For all disputes, whether pursued in court or arbitration, you must first give us an opportunity to
resolve your claim by sending a written description of your claim to the address in Section l5
below. We each agree to negotiate with each other in good faith about your claim. If we do not
resolve the claim within 60 days after we receive this claim description, you may pursue your
claim in arbitration. You may pursue your claim in a court only under the circumstances
described below. We each agree that if you failto timely pay amounts due, we may assign your
account for collection, and the collection agency may pursue in court claims limited strictly to
the collection of the past due amounts and any interest or cost of collection permitted by law or
the Agreement.
Notwithstanding the above, YOU MAY CHOOSE TO PURSUE YOUR CLAIM IN COURT
AND NOT BY ARBITRATION if: (a) your claim qualifies, you may initiate proceedings in
small claims court; or (b) YOU OPT OUT OF THESE ARBITRATION PROCEDURES
WITHIN 30 DAYS FROM THE DATE YOU ACTIVATED SERVICE FOR THE
RELEVANT LINE (the "Opt Out Deadline"). You must opt out by the Opt Out Deadline for
each line of Service. You may opt out of these arbitration procedures by calling l-866-323-4405
or completing the opt-out form located at http:;lnry tirrrill nrobilc.conr,'sLrpprrlt,/clispLrtc.asp:. Any
opt-out received after the Opt Out Deadline will not be valid and you must pursue your
claim in arbitration or small claims court.
If the arbitration provision applies or you choose arbitration to resolve your disputes, then
either you or we may start arbitration proceedings. You must send a letter requesting
arbitration and describing your claim to our registered agent (see Sec. l5) to begin arbitration.
The American Arbitration Association ("AAA") will arbitrate all disputes. For claims of less
than $75,000, the AAA's Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes will apply;
for claims over $75,000, the AAA's Commercial Arbitration Rules will apply. The AAA rules
are available at u u n .arlr.org or by calling I -800-778 -7879. Upon filing of the arbitration
demand, we will pay all filing, administration and arbitrator fees for claims that total less than
$75,000. For claims that total more than $75,000, the payment of filing, administration and
arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA Commercial Arbitration Rules. An arbitrator may
award on an individual basis any relief that would be available in a court, including injunctive or
declaratory relief and attorneys' fees. In addition, for claims under $75,000 as to which you
provided notice and negotiated in good faith as required above before initiating arbitration, if the
arbitrator finds that you are the prevailing party in the arbitration, you will be entitled to a
recovery of reasonable attorneys' fees and costs. Except for claims determined to be frivolous, T-
Mobile agrees not to seek an award of attorneys' fees in arbitration even if an award is otherwise
available under applicable law.
REDACTED FOR PUBLIC INSPECTION
CLASS ACTION WAIVER. WE EACH AGREE THAT ANY DISPUTE RESOLUTION
PROCEEDINGS, WHETHER IN ARBITRATION OR COURT, WILL BE
CONDUCTED ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT IN A CLASS OR
REPRESENTATIVE ACTION OR AS A MEMBER IN A CLASS, CONSOLIDATED OR
REPRESENTATM ACTION. If a court or arbitrator determines in an action between you
and us that this waiver is unenforceable, the arbitration agreement will be void as to you. If you
chose to pursue your claim in court by opting out of the arbitration provision as specified
above, this Class Action Waiver provision will not apply to you. Neither you, nor any other
customer, can be a class representative, class member, or otherwise participate in a class,
consolidated, or representative proceeding without having complied with the opt out
requirements above.
JURY TRIAL WAMR. If a claim proceeds in court rather than through arbitration, WE
EACH WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL.
3. * Your Term of Service and Termination Fees. Your "Term" is the period of time for
which you have agreed to maintain Service with us. Periods of suspension of Service do not
count toward your Term. After your Term, your rate plan term will continue on a month-to-
month basis. Unless you have a month-to-month rate plan Term, AN EARLY TERMINATION
FEE WILL APPLY TO EACH LINE OF SERVICE IF YOU DO NOT MAINTAIN YOUR
AGREED-UPON SERVICES THROUGH THE END OF YOUR TERM FOR THAT
LINE OF SERVICE, OR IF WE TERMINATE YOUR SERVICE EARLY (see Section
18). THE EARLY TERMINATION FEE IS: $50IF TERMINATION OCCURS WITH
MORE THAN 90 DAYS REMAINING ON YOUR TERM, AND THE LESSER OF $25
OR YOUR MONTHLY RECURRING CHARGES (including any applicable taxes and
fees) IF TERMINATION OCCURS IN THE LAST 90 DAYS OF YOUR TERM. Some
Devices require maintaining certain features or Services (e.9. a data plan) as part of your Rate
Plan, and cancelling them before the end of your Term will result in an Early Termination Fee.
The Early Termination Fee is part of our rates and is not a penalty. The Early Termination
Fee applies only to the extent permitted by law. If you terminate your Service, your termination
will be effective at the end of your current billing cycle, and you will remain responsible for all
fees and Charges for your Service and usage through the end of that billing cycle. [f we terminate
your Service, we will determine the date of termination, and you will be responsible for all usage
and Charges through the date of termination. You can request that we port your number to
another carrier.
4.*CancellationandReturns.@Youcancancela1ineofservice,but
will remain responsible for all usage and Charges incurred through the end of your current
billing cycle. If your new line of service has a contract term of one year or more, you can cancel
that new line of Service without paying an Early Termination Fee if you cancel WITHIN 14
DAYS of activating that new line of Service (30 days in California; other states may differ, ask
your sales representative) ("Cancellation Period"). To cancel Service during the Cancellation
Period, you may be required to go to the place where you activated Service and retum any
Family Mobile Device you acquired at the time of activation. You must return your Family

REDACTED FOR PUBLIC INSPECTION

destroyed condition, we may take one or more of the following actions: (a) prevent your Family
Mobile Device from working on any network; (b) charge you the Early Termination Fee (for
contract terms of one year or more); (c) elect not to process your Service cancellation; or (d)
charge you the suggested retail price or the cost to repair the Family Mobile Device, (which may
be greater than the price you paid), plus any shipping and handling charges. Device Refunds

You may be required to pay a restocking fee. The unused portion of any Extras Pack and/or
WebPak may be refundable. Promotional amounts for either Extras Packs or WebPaks amounts
are non-refundable. If you paid an Activation Fee, such fee is non-refundable unless you are
cancelling Service within the Canellation Period. If you cancel Service during the Cancellation
Period, your Activation Fee (if any) and any remaining Extras Pack or WebPak amounts that
have not been deducted from your Extras Pack or WebPak will be refunded (amounts already
deducted will not be refunded). Prior to refunding, any refunds we owe you will be first applied
to satisfy any amounts you owe us.
5. Our Rights to Make Changes. This provision, which describes how changes may be made
to your Agreement, is subject to requirements and limitations imposed by applicable law, and
will not be enforced to the extent prohibited by law. Your Service is subject to our business
policies, practices, and procedures, which we can change without notice. WE CAN CHANGE
ANY TERMS IN THE AGREEMENT AT ANY TIME. YOU MAY CANCEL THE
AFFECTED LINE OF SERVICE WITHOUT AN EARLY TERMINATION FEE (if applicable)
IF: (A) WE CHANGE YOUR PRICING TN A MANNER THAT MATERIALLY INCREASES
YOUR MONTHLY RECURRING CHARGE(S) (the amount you agreed to pay each month for
voice, data and messaging, which does not include overage, pay-per-use or optional services
(such as 4l l, or downloads), or taxes and fees);
(B) WE MATEzuALLY DECREASE THE SERVICE ALLOTMENTS WE AGREED TO
PROVIDE TO YOU FOR YOUR MONTHLY RECURRING CHARGE; OR (C) WE

IF YOU FAIL TO TERMINATE WITHIN THE RELEVANT TIMEFRAME, YOU ACCEPT
THE CHANGES.
6. * Your Wireless Device & Compatibility with Other Networks. Your Family Mobile
Device may not be compatible with the network and services provided by another service
provider. A Device purchased from someone else, must, as solely determined by T-Mobile, be
compatible with, and not potentially harm, the T-Mobile network. Family Mobile Devices are
designed to be used only with our Service. You may be eligible to have your Family Mobile
Device reprogrammed to work with another carrier, but you must contact us to do so. Not all
Family Mobile Devices are capable of being reprogrammed. We reserve the right to prevent your
Device from being used on our network. Some features will be available only on some Devices
REDACTED FOR PUBLIC INSPECTION
purchased from us. At times we may remotely change software, systems, applications, features
or programming on your Device without notice to address security, safety or other issues that
impact the network or your Device. These changes will modify your Device and may affect or
erase data you have stored on your Device, the way you have programmed your Device, or the
way you use your Device. We may offer you changes to systems, applications, features or
programming remotely to your Device; you will not be able to use your Device during the
installation of the changes even for emergencies.
7. Service Availability. Coverage maps only approximate the anticipated wireless coverage area
outdoors; actual Service area, coverage and quality may vary and change without notice
depending on a variety of factors including network capacity, terrain and weather. Outages and
interruptions in Service may occur, and speed of Service varies. You agree that T-Mobile is not
liable for problems relating to Service availability or quality.
S.Important Emergency 9-1-1 Information and Emergency Alerts. When making a 9-l-l
call, always state the nature of your emergency and provide both your location and phone
number, as the operator may not automatically receive this information. T-Mobile is not
responsible for failures to connect or complete 9-1-1 calls or if inaccurate location
information is provided. 9-1-1 service may not be available or reliable and your ability to
receive emergency services may be impeded. A variety of information and methods may be
used to determine the location of a 9-l-l call, including GlobalPositioning Satellites, our
wireless network, or the street address you have provided us as your primary use location
("Primary Address"). Even with this information, an emergency operator may not be able to
locate you in order to provide emergency services. Other third party entities are involved in
connecting a 9-l-l calland we do not determine the public safety agency to which your 9-l-l
call is routed. If you are porting a phone number to or from us, we may not be able to provide
you with some Services, such as 9-l-l location services, while the port is being implemented. If
you dial 9-l-l while outside the U.S., 9-l-l services may not be available. Wi-Fi and 9-1-1
Service: 9-l-l service using Wi-Fi uses the internet and operates differently than traditional 9-l-
l. For example, 9-1-l service may not work during power or internet (e.g., cable service) outages
or disruptions or if your internet or Service is suspended. Location information when using Wi-
Fi may be limited or unavailable. You must provide us with a Primary Address. If the location at
which you primarily use Wi-Fi changes, either temporarily or perrnanently, you must register the
new address online or by contacting Customer Care at l-877-760-8760; it may take 24 hours or
more to update the address information. If you do not give us a Primary Address, we may block
your usage of certain Wi-Fi networks. When you call over Wi-Fi away from your Primary
Address, we may have no or very limited information about your location. Emergencv Alerts:
T-Mobile has chosen to offer wireless emergency alerts, within portion of its coverage area, on

9. * Billing. You agree to pay all Charges we bill you or that were accepted or processed
through your Device. For disputed Charges, see Section 14. 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. Airtime usage is measured from
REDACTED FOR PUBLIC INSPECTION
the time the network begins to process a 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 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). If we cannot determine the time of your call, we may base the
time on the local time associated with your billing address. Calls made between lines of Service
on the same account are charged as intra-account calls while on the T-Mobile network (but not
when off-network or roaming on affiliate networks). You may be charged for more than one
call/message when you use certain features resulting in multiple inbound or outbound
calls/messages (such as call forwarding, call waiting, voicemail, conference calling, and multi-
party messaging). Most usage and Charges incurred during a billing cycle will be included in
your bill for that cycle. Some usage and 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 all calls processed
through your Device, including toll-free, operator-assisted, voice mail, call forwarding and
calling card calls. You may be billed additional Charges or fees for certain features and services
such as operator or directory assistance, data calls or transfers, messaging, internet access and
applications'yourExtrasPackorWebPakcanbeused
to purchase services and products from third-party providers (e.g., games, apps, ringtones, etc.)
and Charges for these purchases will be deducted from your Extras Pack or WebPak.p4lq USgre
and Messasinq: Data usage is rounded up to the next full-kilobyte increment at the end of each
data session. There are 1,024 kilobytes in one megabyte. You will be charged for text, instant or
picture messages and email whether read or unread, sent or received, 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 we are not liable for such messages. Contact Customer Care at
1-877-760-8760 or visit rn1 fan"rill:ni,.bilt.c,.rr"n for additional blocking options. Extras
Pack/WebPak Billins: Data usage is charged in I megabyte increments. When you have used a
full megabyte, you will be charged for another I megabyte. Unless your Rate Plan includes data
Allotments, data usage will be tracked and deducted from your Extras Pack or WebPak amount
from the time you begin a session until you stop the session. Usage will first be deducted from
Extras Pack or WebPak amounts associated with monies that you have paid, and then from any
promotional amounts you may have. If you have multiple data sessions running at the same time,
you may be charged separately for each data session in I megabyte increments as described
above. Wi-Fi Billine: Billing for Wi-Fi usage will be based on the network (Wi-Fi or cellular)
to which your Device was connected at the start of the call or other Service. Check your Device
indicator and manual to know if you are on a cellular or Wi-Fi network. Additional incoming and
outgoing calls initiated while you are already connected to a network (e.9., call waiting, call
forwarding, conference calling) also are billed based upon the network upon which the original
call was initiated. Calls may drop if you move between Wi-Fi networks or between Wi-Fi
networks and a cellular network. We will bill you based on the time at the location of the Wi-Fi
network (or a nearby cell tower) if we know its location. If we are unable to determine the
location of the Wi-Fi network, we may base the time of the call on the localtime of your billing
address, which can affect the designation of your calls such as a night or weekend call.
10. * Extras Pack, WebPaks and Other Features. An Extras Pack or WebPak may be used for
features such as access to data, internet, picture messaging, downloads, and international calling
REDACTED FOR PUBLIC INSPECTION
or roaming, unless those services are otherwise included in your Rate Plan. Some Rate Plans that
do not include data services may require a miniumum Extras Pack or WebPak level to begin
internet browsing. You must have an active Family Mobile Rate Plan to have an Extras Pack or
WebPak, and your Extras Pack or WebPak may not be used if your account is suspended. Some
Rate Plans or Devices may require or allow you to maintain a data plan ("Data Plan") as part of
your Service. Permissible and Prohibited Uses: Your Data Plan, Extras Pack or WebPak is
intended for Web browsing, downloads, messaging, and similar activities on your Device and not
on any other equipment. Unless explicitly permitted by your Data Plan, Extras Pack or WebPak
other uses, including for example, using your Device as a modem or tethering your Device to a
personal computer or other hardware, are not permitted. Other examples of prohibited uses can
be found in Section 17. Protective Measures: To provide a good experience for the majority of
our customers and minimize capacity issues and degradation in network performance, we may
take measures including temporarily reducing data throughput for a subset of customers with
Data Plans, Extras Pack or WebPaks who use a disproportionate amount of bandwidth. In
addition, if total usage on a Data Plan or with Extras Pack or WebPaks exceeds 5GB (amount is
subject to change without notice; please check these T&Cs at rnl lirrrill ii':i;bilc.coirr for updates)
during a billing cycle, we may reduce your data speed for the remainder of that billing cycle. If
you use your Data Plan, Extras Pack or WebPak in a manner that could interfere with other
customers' service, affect our ability to allocate network capacity among customers, or degrade
service quality for other customers, we may suspend, terminate, or restrict your data session, or
switch you to a more appropriate Data Plan. We also manage our network to facilitate the proper
functioning of services that require consistent high speeds, such as video calling, which may,
particularly at times and in areas of network congession, result in reduced speeds for other
services. Additionally we may implement other network management practices, such as caching
less data, using less capacity and sizing video more appropriately for a Device to transmit data
files more efficiently. These practices are agnostic to the content itself and to the websites that
provide it. While we avoid changing text, image, and video files in the compression process
when practical, the process may impact the appearance of files as displayed on your Device.
Downloadable Content and Applications: Content or Applications (e.g., downloadable or
networked applications, wallpapers, ringtones, games, and productivity tools) ("Content &
Apps") that you can purchase with your Device may be sold by third parties. These purchases
may appear on your bill, but we are not responsible for the Content & Apps, including download,
installation, use, transmission failure, interruption, or delay, or any content or website you may
be able to access through the Content & Apps. Unless otherwise stated, any support questions for
these Content & Apps may be directed to the third party seller. You can restrict access to the
internet with Webfilter or the WebPak On/Off switch, available at rl1 lan:ill nrobilc.clrnr. You
may have other options for restricting access and implementing controls; call Customer Care at
l-877-760-8760 or check n:r tanrilr rnobile .torn for details. When you use, download or install
Content & Apps sold by a third party seller, you may be subject to license terms between you
and third parties. When you use, download, or install Content & Apps that you purchase from us,
the Content & Apps are licensed to you by us and may be subject to additional license terms
between you and third parties. Whether purchased from us or a third party, any Content & Apps
you purchase are licensed for personal, lawful, non-commercial use on your Device only. You
may not transfer, copy, or reverse engineer any Content & Apps, or alter, disable or circumvent
any digital rights management security features embedded in the Content & Apps. Content &
Apps may not be transferable from one Device to another Device. Some Devices or Content &
REDACTED FOR PUBLIC INSPECTION
Apps may continue to have contact with our network without your knowledge, which may result
in additional Charges, for example, while roaming internationally. Software on your Device may
automatically shut down or limit the use of Content & Apps or other features or Services without
waming. We are not responsible for any third party content, advertisements, or websites you
may be able to access using your Device. Use of Information: We may (a) retain, use, and
share information collected when you download, use, or install some Content & Apps, (b) update
your Content & Apps remotely, or (c) disable or remove any Content & Apps at any time. Refer
to our Privacy Policy, as well as the Content & Apps creator/owner's privacy policy for
information regarding their use of information collected when you download, install, or use any
third party Content & Apps. We are not responsible for any transmission failure, interruption, or
delay related to Content & Apps, or any content or website you may be able to access through
the Content & Apps. Wi-Fi Calline: You acknowledge and agree that your use of any Wi-Fi
network is permissible and that you are solely responsible for your use. Cell Broadcasts (alerts
that go to certain customers), Emergency Alerts and Wireless Priority Service ("WPS") may not
be available with Wi-Fi Calling.
11.* Roaming and International Calling. Roamins: Your Device may connect to another
provider's network ("Off-Net") even when you are within our coverage area. Check your Device
to determine if you are Off-Net. There may be extra Charges (including long distance, tolls, data
usage) and higher rates for Off-Net usage, depending on your Rate PIan and your quality and
availabilty of service may vary significantly. Some Rate Plans may not include data romaing.
You must use your Device predominantly within our network coverage area. We may limit,
suspend, or terminate your Service in our discretion and without prior notice if you no longer
reside in a T-Mobile-owned network coverage area, if more than 50% of your voice and/or data
usage is Off-Net for any three billing cycles within any 12 month period, if your Off-Net usage
makes it uneconomical for us to provide Service to you, or if otherwise related to out
arrangements with a provider on whom we rely to provide Off-Net coverage. International
Roamine & Dialine: Internationalroaming and dialing are available with some Rate Plans and
on some Devices and may require an additional feature on your account or an Extras Pack or
WebPak. Whether roaming internationally or making and sending intemational calls and
messages while in the U.S., you will be charged international rates(including for voicemails left
for you and for data usage). This includes per minute rates for calls and, while roaming
internationally, per minute rates for calls transferred to your voicemail and the relevant data rates
for data usage. You may be charged for more than one call for unanswered calls that are
forwarded to voicemail regardless of whether the calls result in an actual voicemail message
being left for you and regardless of whether your phone is on or off. Some Devices and
applications may incur usage and Charges while roaming. You may be able to disable these
applications and features through your Device settings. Different rates and rounding increments
apply in different countries. Check rnr llir-:rillrnobilc.conr for information on international access,
rates, Services and coverage. While roaming internationally, your data throughput may be
reduced and your Service may be otherwise limited or terminated at any time without notice.
12. * Taxes, Fees, and Surcharges. You agree to pay all taxes and fees imposed by
governments or governmental entities. We may not give advance notice of changes to Taxes &
Fees. To determine Taxes & Fees, we will use the street address you identified as your Place of
Primary Use ("PPU"). If you did not identifu the correct PPU, or if you provided an address
REDACTED FOR PUBLIC INSPECTION
(such as a PO box) that is not a recognized street address, does not identiff the applicable taxing
jurisdictions or does not reflect the Service area associated with your telephone number, you may
be assigned a default location for tax purposes. In the event of a disputed tax jurisdiction
location being assigned, any tax refund must be requested within 60 days of our notification to
you that the tax has been assessed. Surcharges: You agree to pay all other surcharges.
Surcharges are not mandated by law;they are our Charges that are collected and retained by us.
The components and amounts of these Charges are subject to change without notice. Surcharges
include, but are not limited to charges, costs, fees and certain taxes we incur to provide Services
(and are not government taxes or fees imposed directly on our customers that we must collect by
law). Examples include general and administrative fees (such as certain costs we incur to provide
Service) as well as govemmental-related Surcharges (such as Federal or State Universal Service
fees, regulatory fees, and gross receipts taxes). Surcharges will apply whether or not you benefit
from the programs, activities or services included in the Surcharge. You can find the Surcharges
in either the "Taxes, Fees & Surcharges" or the "Other Charges" section of your bill.
13. * Payments, Late Fees, Deposits, and Credit Checks. You will be notified when your bill
is due. Your bill may be viewed online. Additionally, you may request a summary paper bill by
calling Customer Care at l-877-760-8760. You may be charged a fee when paying your bill at a
store location or through Customer Care. If we do not receive payment in full by the due date on
your bill, you may be charged a late fee of the greater of 1.5%o per month (18% annually) or
$5/month, subject to the maximum allowed by law. We may use a collection agency and you
agree to pay collection agency fees we incur to collect payment. If we accept late or partial
payments, we do not waive our right to collect all amounts that you owe, including late fees. If
your check, electronic funds transfer payment, including debit or Automated Clearing House
payment, or any other payment is dishonored or returned, we may charge you $35, or the
maximum amount allowed under applicable law. We may also require you to use another
payment method, and/or immediately suspend or cancel your Service. We will not honor
limiting notations you make on or with your checks. Late payment, non-payment or collection
agency fees are liquidated damages intended to be a reasonable advance estimate of our costs
resulting from late payments and non-payments by our customers; these costs are not readily
ascertainable and are difficult to predict or calculate at the time that these fees are set. Dg@.
We may require a deposit. You agree that only we can apply deposits, payments, or prepayments
in any order to any amounts you owe us on any account and that you may be required to increase
or replace your deposit amount. We refund deposits and final credit balances upon request,
unless otherwise required by law. We pay simple interest on deposits at the rate the law requires.
