COMMUNICATIONS WITH BLUFF MY CALL

Subscriber may provide information, including but not limited to feedback, data, answers, questions, comments, suggestions, plans and ideas to Bluff My Call.

BILL PAYMENT

Subscriber may be required to pay monthly subscription charges, enhanced service charges, and/or usage charges in connection with the Services, as stated by Bluff My Call. There may be additional fees if Subscriber requests a change in any Services. Depending upon the level of Services selected by Subscriber, there may be charges for calls to or from certain locations, including without limitation payphones, calls placed, and areas within extended calling zones. There may also be applicable taxes, surcharges, assessments, government fees and charges for any special or enhanced services Subscriber uses. Any of the foregoing may be billed to Subscriber when they reach a limit as Bluff My Call determines at its sole discretion.

Bluff My Call will charge Subscriber the rates in effect under Subscriber's subscription plan, plus any enhanced service charges at the time of subscription, as such rates may be updated by Bluff My Call from time to time. Some charges (such as, but not limited to, surcharges) may accumulate in Subscriber's account before Subscriber is charged for such amounts, or such amounts may be charged to Subscriber as assessed. If Subscriber has enrolled in a then-current subscription plan and chooses to change the plan, and if there are one or more days remaining on Subscriber's current subscription, Subscriber will be credited for those days in the calculation of Subscriber's charges. Subscriber's billing cycle starts on the day the subscription purchase is successfully processed. If there is a change in subscription plan, there may be a resulting change in Subscriber's billing date.

Users may purchase prepaid credits to be used for Bluff My Call services as described on the Website. Bluff My Call will not offer any refunds or reimbursements for the purchase price of such prepayments. Unused balances shall expire six (6) months from the most recent date of use, and may not be transferred. Usage of minutes is billed in one minute increments. Minutes are deducted for inbound calls and per minute charges shall accrue for outbound calls. Prepaid credits are billed at the time of purchase. If Subscriber selects "Auto-Recharge", such credits are automatically purchased and charged to Subscriber when the available balance reaches a threshold, determined by Bluff My Call in its sole discretion.

A maintenance, storage, connection or any other daily, weekly or monthly or per call fee may be deducted from your pin or plan, and result in a lower available balance. These fees are to maintain the account including service, and any recordings that you may save. If you have less than $1 remaining balance, you will only be deducted whatever you have left on your PIN. If your card is depleted and no longer has a balance, we do not bill you in any way, nor do we charge your credit card.

Bluff My Call's rates are listed on its Website and are incorporated by reference herein. You are responsible for checking all applicable rates/promotions before making or excepting any calls using our service.

There is a 90-cent surcharge assessed on calls made from the following locations: (1) Payphones, (2)Hotels, (3)Dormitories, (4) Hospitals, and (5) Other commercial phone lines. This surcharge covers charges imposed by the Federal Communications Commission to compensate owners for the use of their facilities to originate a phone call. Although a high percentage of callers do not complete their payphone calls (they hang up before entering a destination number), Bluff My Call is still charged by the payphone operator for the toll free call. Bluff My Call has included the average cost of these incomplete calls in this fee.

If Subscriber changes Subscriber's Services from a billed plan to a free plan, Subscriber will be billed through the end of the billing cycle in which such a change is made.

Subscriber agrees that all payments will be made to Bluff My Call via credit or debit card, issued by a US bank, including MasterCard, VISA, AmericanExpress, or Discover. Bluff My Call may change the credit cards accepted at any time, at its sole discretion. Subscriber's name and address as it appears on Subscriber's Bluff My Call account must also be on the credit account from which Payment is made. If Subscriber provides a credit card number that Bluff My Call accepts for payment of Subscriber's monthly bills, Subscriber is authorizing Bluff My Call to charge the amounts Subscriber owes, then or later, to that credit card account and to demand immediate payment from the card issuer. Subscriber also agrees to pay, under the terms of Subscriber's agreement with the card's issuer, the amounts charged to Subscriber's credit card. Every time Subscriber uses Bluff My Call Services, Subscriber re-affirms that Bluff My Call is authorized to charge Subscriber's card. Subscriber agrees to authorize Bluff My Call to charge purchases made online to the credit card account supplied to Bluff My Call when the subscription was initiated, or the card that Bluff My Call has on file when the purchase is made. Subscriber agrees to pay all costs and expenses, including without limitation attorney's fees, incurred by Bluff My Call to collect any monies due under terms of this Agreement.

You must notify Bluff My Call by e-mail of any disputed charges within thirty (30) days of the charge being posted to your Account. Bluff My Call will attempt to resolve all disputes within thirty (30) days of being notified of a dispute. To the extent Bluff My Call determines, at its sole discretion, that a billing adjustment is warranted, your Account will be credited accordingly. If you fail to notify Bluff My Call of a billing dispute as noted above, you will waive all rights to bring any claim regarding the disputed charges.

Bluff My Call recognizes that the person whose name is listed on the Account is the sole owner of the Account, even where payment on the Account is made using the credit card of a parent or other person.
