instructions. EONramp reserves the right to inspect or observe the problem

of invoice or anniversary. If your payment is returned to us unpaid you
are immediately in
default and subject to a returned check charge of $25 from EONramp in addition
to any fees charged by your bank. Accounts in default may have their service
interrupted and a reconnect fee of $25 plus all past dues amounts. Such
interruption does
not relieve you from the obligation to pay the monthly charge. Only a written
request to
terminate your service relieves you of your obligation to pay the monthly
account charge.

does
not mail paper invoices to individual and personal dialup customers. Customers
shall receive invoices via internet email. Customer agrees to pay for service

you
agree to pay EONramp reasonable expenses, including attorney and collection
agency fees incurred in enforcing its rights under these Terms and Conditions.
15.Service is invoiced monthly on the anniversary date (usually the same

a
one time pro-rated monthly amount plus one full month. EONramp billing
department will notify you at least 21 days via email prior to this taking
place.

which means no full or partial refund of the initial month's service fee

activation (setup) fee will be given if service is canceled within the
initial 30
day subscription period. Additionally, all cancellations become effective
at the
end of the current billing period for monthly subscribers or the end of
the
current billing month for quarterly subscribers. There are no refunds issued
for a
partial period of service.
17.Customers who sign up and commit for a minimum of six months or more
and
receive a waiver of setup fee agree to pay a setup fee if cancellation
is made
prior to the commitment term. Any refunded amount will be limited to the

is more
cost effective to cancel service or simply complete the minimum term.
