Terms of Use
VOICETELONE TERMS OF SERVICE These Terms of Service constitute the agreement ("Agreement") between VoiceTelOne, LLC ("we," "us" or "VoiceTelOne") and the user ("you," "user" or "Customer") of VoiceTelOne's residential and small business communications services and any related products or services ("Service"). This Agreement governs both the Service and any devices, such as an IP phone, Multimedia Terminal Adapter, Analog Telephone Adapter or any other IP connection device ("Device" or "Equipment"), used in conjunction with the Service. If you purchased Equipment from a retail store, dealer or other provider other than VoiceTelOne, you are a "Retail Customer" for purposes of this Agreement. BY ACTIVATING OR USING THE SERVICE, YOU REPRESENT THAT YOU ARE OF LEGAL AGE TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THAT YOU HAVE READ AND UNDERSTAND FULLY THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT. 1. EMERGENCY SERVICES - 911 DIALING 1.1 Definitions 1.1.1 E-911 Enhanced-911 or E-911 enables calls to be routed to Public Safety Answering Points (PSAP) such that both the calling phone number and the address are immediately available to the PSAP operator. 1.2 Description of VoiceTelOne 911 Capabilities VoiceTelOne VoIP Services support E-911. You acknowledge and understand that the Service supports E911 access to emergency services ONLY IF THE SERVICE IS OPERATED FROM THE SERVICE LOCATION OF RECORD, and then only if the user has an active connection to the service, in accordance with these Terms of Service. 1.3. Service Outage 1.3.1 Power Failure or Disruption You acknowledge and understand that 911 dialing does not function in the event of a power failure or disruption. Should there be an interruption in the power supply, the Service and 911 dialing will not function until power is restored. A power failure or disruption may require the Customer to reset or reconfigure equipment prior to utilizing the Service or 911 dialing. 1.3.2 Broadband Service / ISP Outage or Termination / Suspension or Termination by VoiceTelOne You acknowledge and understand that service outages or suspension or termination of service by your broadband provider and/or ISP or by VoiceTelOne will prevent ALL Service including 911 dialing. 1.3.3 Service Outage Due to Suspension of Your Account You acknowledge and understand that service outages due to suspension of your account as a result of billing issues may prevent ALL Service, including 911 dialing. 1.3.4 Other Service Outages You acknowledge and understand that if there is a service outage for ANY reason, such outage may prevent ALL Service, including 911 dialing. Such outages may occur for a variety of reasons, including, but not limited to those reasons described elsewhere in this Agreement. 1.4 Failure to Designate the Correct Physical Address When Enrolling or Changing Your Address Failure to provide the current and correct physical address and location of your VoiceTelOne equipment during enrollment or change of address will result in any 911 communication you may make being routed to the incorrect local emergency service provider and will likely prevent a timely response to your emergency. This address designated must be the actual physical street address where you are located, not a post office box, mail drop or similar address. 1.5 Use of Service From Different Location You acknowledge and understand that 911 dialing does not function properly or at all if you move or otherwise change the physical location of your VoiceTelOne Device to a different street address. Failure to provide the current and correct physical address and location of your VoiceTelOne equipment will result in any 911 dialing you may make being routed to the incorrect local emergency service provider. This emergency service provider may not be able to provide emergency services. 1.6 Alternative 911 Arrangements You acknowledge that VoiceTelOne does not offer primary line or lifeline services. You should always have an alternative means of accessing traditional E911 services. 1.7 Automated Number Identification At this time it may or may not be possible for the Public Safety Answering Point (PSAP) and the local emergency personnel to identify your phone number when you dial 911. VoiceTelOne's system is configured in most instances to send the automated number identification information; however, one or more telephone companies, not VoiceTelOne, route the traffic to the PSAP and the PSAP itself must be able to receive the information and pass it along properly, and PSAPs are not yet always technically capable of doing so. You acknowledge and understand that PSAP and emergency personnel may or may not be able to identify your phone number in order to call you back if the call is unable to be completed, is dropped or disconnected, or if you are unable to speak to tell them your phone number and/or if the Service is not operational for any reason, including without limitation those listed elsewhere in this Agreement. 1.8 Automated Location Identification When calling from a mobile phone it is impossible to pinpoint your exact location. You acknowledge and understand that you will need to state the nature of your emergency promptly and clearly, including your location, as PSAP and emergency personnel will NOT have this information. You acknowledge and understand that PSAP and emergency personnel will not be able to find your location if the call is unable to be completed, is dropped or disconnected, if you are unable to speak to tell them your location and/or if the Service is not operational for any reason, including without limitation those listed elsewhere in this Agreement. 1.9 Disclaimer of Liability and Indemnification We do not have any control over whether, or the manner in which, calls using our 911 Dialing service are answered or addressed by any local emergency response center. We disclaim all responsibility for the conduct of local emergency response centers and the national emergency calling center. We rely on third parties to assist us in routing 911 Dialing calls to local emergency response centers and to a national emergency calling center. We disclaim any and all liability or responsibility in the event such third party data used to route calls is incorrect or yields an erroneous result. Neither VoiceTelOne nor its officers or employees may be held liable for any claim, damage, or loss, and you hereby waive any and all such claims or causes of action, arising from or relating to our 911 Dialing service unless such claims or causes of action arose from our gross negligence, recklessness or willful misconduct. You shall defend, indemnify, and hold harmless VoiceTelOne, its officers, directors, employees, affiliates and agents and any other service provider who furnishes services to you in connection with the Service, from any and all claims, losses, damages, fines, penalties, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys fees) by, or on behalf of, you or any third party relating to the absence, failure or outage of the Service, including 911 Dialing, incorrectly routed 911 Dialing calls, and/or the inability of any user of the Service to be able to use 911 Dialing or access emergency service personnel. 1.10 Alternate 911 Arrangements If you are not comfortable with the limitations of the 911 Dialing service, you should consider having an alternate means of accessing traditional 911 or E911 services or terminating the Service. 2. SERVICE 2.1 Term Service is offered on a monthly basis for a term that begins on the date that VoiceTelOne activates your Service and ends on the day before the same date in the following month. Subsequent terms of this Agreement automatically renew on a monthly basis unless you give us written notice of non-renewal at least ten (10) days before the end of the monthly term in which the notice is given. You are purchasing the Service for full monthly terms, meaning that if you attempt to terminate Service prior to the end of a monthly term, you will be responsible for the full month's charges to the end of the then-current term, including, without limitation, unbilled charges, plus a termination fee, if applicable, all of which will immediately become due and payable. You will also be responsible for the next full month's charges in the event that you do not provide the requisite ten-days notice of termination prior to the expiration of the then-current term.

We may terminate your Service at any time in our sole and absolute discretion if any charge to your credit or debit card is declined or reversed, your credit or debit card expires and you have not provided us with a valid replacement credit or debit card or in case of any other non-payment of account charges.

Such amounts are in addition to payment for the Service or Devices and will be billed to your credit card as set forth in this Agreement. If you are exempt from payment of such taxes, you must provide us with an original certificate that satisfies applicable legal requirements attesting to tax-exempt status. Tax exemption will only apply from and after the date we receive such certificate. 3.6 Termination Fee You will be charged a termination fee of $59.95 per voice line if your Service is terminated for any reason (except the 30-day money back guarantee) during the first twelve months following the activation of your Service.

We offer a 30-day money back guarantee from the date of activation of your Service (different periods apply for Retail Customers depending on the applicable offer details contained in the advertising or online content of the retail store or dealer that sold the Retail Customer the Equipment). The money back guarantee does not apply to any individual or business ordering service to evaluate a potential business opportunity with VoiceTelone, it's affiliates or providers.

We will refund the equipment fee and service charge for the first month of Service provided that: you have not exceeded 250 minutes of usage; you cancel your Service within the applicable period; you return the Device to us in original condition, normal wear and tear excluded, within 14 days after the cancellation of your Service; the Device is returned in the original packaging with the UPC or bar code intact and is accompanied by all components, accessories, parts, manuals, registration cards and other documentation; and prior to returning the Device to us, you obtain a valid return authorization number from our customer care RMA department, which can be reached at RMA@voicetelone.com or 1-208-667-8803.

We reserve the right to terminate or revoke this money back guarantee at any time, without prior notice. 3.8 Charges for Toll-Free Service If you use any toll free feature that we may offer in the future, we will be entitled to recover from you any charges imposed on us either directly or indirectly in connection with toll free calls made to your number. We may recover these amounts by means of a per-call charge, rounded up to the next cent, or in such other fashion as we deem appropriate for the recovery of these costs. 3.9 Charges for Directory Calls (411) We will charge you $0.99 for each call made to VoiceTelOne directory assistance. 3.10 Charges for International Calls International calling is not enabled by default. You will need to contact VoiceTelOne by phone, email, or online portal, and request that it is enabled for your account. Once, this is enabled, then you can add funds through the portal.
