Invoicing. Invoicing cycles are approximately 30 days in length. Invoicing cycles and dates may change from time to time. Except as otherwise provided in your Service Plan, monthly recurring charges (MRCs) are invoiced one invoicing cycle in advance. Charges for Services are usually invoiced as soon as possible after the charges accrue. We may, however, invoice you for usage and charges occurring before the invoicing cycle being invoiced, if they were not previously invoiced. If you are invoiced for usage incurred during a prior invoicing cycle, those minutes will be applied to your Service Plan minutes for the current invoicing cycle. However, if you change your Sprint PCS Service Plan between the time the usage was incurred and the beginning of the current invoicing cycle, those minutes from the prior invoicing cycle will be charged at the rate per minute for usage over included minutes provided in the Service Plan in effect at the time the usage was incurred.

Payment. If you have authorized payment for Services or equipment by credit card or by debiting a bank account, no additional notice or consent is required before we invoice the credit card or debit the bank account for all amounts due to us or billed by us on behalf of a third party. You must promptly notify us of any change in your invoicing address or of the credit card or bank account used for payment. We reserve the right to require payment by money order, cashier's check or other secured form of payment. If we take action to receive payment beyond invoicing you for charges for Services or equipment, you must pay our costs and expenses of collection, including attorneys' fees and expenses, the fees of any collection agency and court costs. If we act as an invoicing agent for a third-party service provider, payments received are first applied to amounts due and owing to us and any remaining amounts are applied to sums due and owing to the third-party service provider. We may immediately charge an additional fee for any check or other negotiable instrument endorsed by you and returned unpaid by a financial institution for any reason. You may be charged fees for certain methods of payment.

Late Payment Charges. Payment is past due if we do not receive it by the due date shown on your invoice. Any payment for Services and equipment not made when due accrues late charges until paid at the rate of 5% per month or at the highest rate allowed by law. Acceptance of late or partial payments (even if marked "paid in full") does not waive our right to collect all amounts that you owe us. If your Service has been suspended due to non-payment, you may be charged a reactivation fee.

Disputed Charges. You must raise any dispute that you have about any charges invoiced to you within 15 days of the date of the invoice or you have accepted the invoice. You may notify us of any dispute by notifying Sprint Customer Service. Calls to our sales or general business offices are not notice of a dispute. If disputed invoice procedures are described on the invoice, you must follow them.

Account Spending Limit. If we agree to provide Services to you on an Account Spending Limit basis, we will tell you your Account Spending Limit before we start Services to your Number, or as reasonably practicable after the limit is imposed. If we require a deposit for you to establish or keep Services on an Account Spending
