Customer, in part, because Sprint will not continue to receive monthly service charges from Customer. As a result, Sprint shall incur damages that are difficult, if not impossible, to determine. THEREFORE, IN THE CASE OF BREACH OR EARLY TERMINATION OF THE AGREEMENT BY CUSTOMER, CUSTOMER SHALL PAY TO SPRINT, AS LIQUIDATED DAMAGES AND NOT AS A PENALTY (IN ADDITION TO ALL AMOUNTS THEN OWED TO SPRINT), $200 FOR EACH NUMBER ASSIGNED TO CUSTOMER’S ACCOUNT AS A REASONABLE ESTIMATE OF THE DAMAGES INCURRED BY SPRINT. This is intended to maintain Sprint’s overall rate at an acceptable level despite Customer’s early termination and will be assessed without exception unless otherwise provided in this Agreement or by applicable law.
Failure to Pay - Customer acknowledges that time is of the essence with respect to all amounts owed to Sprint. IF CUSTOMER HAS NOT PAID ITS MONTHLY INVOICE IN FULL BY THE DUE DATE, A LATE PAYMENT CHARGE OF UP TO 1.5% PER MONTH (18% ANNUALLY),
OR SUCH LESSER AMOUNT PERMITTED BY LAW, MAY BE APPLIED TO THE TOTAL UNPAID BALANCE DUE AND OUTSTANDING. THIS LATE PAYMENT CHARGE IS ASSESSED TO RECOVER COSTS FOR CUSTOMER’S FAILURE TO PAY AND SHALL NOT CONSTITUTE INTEREST. Sprint’s acceptance of late or partial payments (even if marked “paid in full” or similar notations) shall not waive Sprint’s right to collect the full amount due under this Agreement, plus any additional amounts charged under this paragraph. If Sprint obtains the services of a collection or repossession agency or an attorney to assist in remedying any breach of this Agreement by Customer, including but not limited to, Customer’s nonpayment of charges, Customer shall be liable for this expense.
Disputed Charges - Customer may dispute only those charges that Customer believes are the result of (1) a billing error; (2) a problem related to Customer’s Service; or (3) dropped calls. To dispute any charge, Customer must pay all undisputed amounts when due and submit a written notice to Sprint within ninety (90) days of the date of the invoice. CUSTOMER WAIVES THE RIGHT TO DISPUTE ANY CHARGES FOR WHICH TIMELY NOTICE IS NOT PROVIDED TO SPRINT. Sprint shall resolve all disputed charges in its sole discretion. If Sprint determines that an error was made on Customer’s invoice, Sprint will credit Customer’s account in the amount of the error. If Sprint determines that a disputed charge was validly assessed upon Customer, Sprint will notify Customer and Customer must furnish the amount to Sprint within a reasonable period of time; or, if authorized by Customer, Sprint may instead charge Customer’s credit card or debit card by any amount that was validly assessed. If Customer fails to pay any undisputed amount or, after a reasonable period of time, fails to pay any amount determined by Sprint to have been validly assessed upon
