108 Section 5B: Terms and Conditions
Wireless Devices, Numbers & Email Addresses. We did not manufacture your
wireless device and we are not responsible for any defects or for the acts or
omissions of the manufacturer. The only warranties on your device are any limited
warranties extended by the manufacturer directly to you or passed on to you
through us. Your device may not accept Services directly from any other carrier.
You do not have any rights to any number, email address or other identifier we
may assign to your device or account; you may not modify, change or transfer any
of these except as we allow or as allowed for by law. In certain instances, you may
transfer your number from another carrier to us, or from us to another carrier. We
do not guarantee that transfers to or from us will be successful. If you transfer
your number away from us, the terms of this Agreement (e.g., Early Termination
Fee, etc.) still apply. If a transfer to Sprint is not successful, you will be responsible
for any discounts provided to you with the purchase of your device. See our
printed in-store materials or visit www.sprint.com for additional important
information on number transfers.
Coverage. Available coverage areas for Services are generally identified in our
mapping brochures and at www.sprint.com. This may include coverage on our
digital network (the “Nationwide Sprint PCS Network”) as well as coverage we
make available to you through agreements with other carriers (“off network” or
“roaming” coverage).
All coverage maps are high level representations of outdoor coverage and there
are gaps in coverage within areas shown as covered on the maps. Coverage is not
available everywhere, nor can we guarantee you will receive coverage at all times,
or without interruptions or delays (e.g., dropped calls, blocked calls, etc.) in the
coverage areas we identify. Actual coverage and quality of Services may be
affected by conditions within or beyond our control, including network problems,
software, signal strength, your equipment, structures (including buildings in
which you may be located), atmospheric, geographic, or topographic conditions.
Roaming Coverage. You are roaming anytime your phone indicates that you are
roaming. Roaming coverage is only available with certain devices and, unless
included as part of your Services, will result in additional charges. Roaming calls
placed “manually” (through an operator or with a credit card) will always incur
separate and additional charges. Depending on your phone settings, you may
automatically roam if there is a gap or interruption in coverage within the
Nationwide Sprint PCS Network coverage area and roaming coverage areas. See
your phone guide for how to adjust phone settings. Certain features and services
may not be available in roaming coverage areas (including PCS Vision, voicemail,
call waiting, call forwarding, etc.).
