Non-Discrimination
Company offers Lifeline, a government assistance program, on a non-discriminatory basis to any consumer who completes and submits the required Lifeline application and supporting documentation that 1) meets and maintains the eligibility requirements as defined by the Company policy and terms, federal and state rules and regulations including approval by the federal and state Lifeline Administrator(s), rules and regulation(s), as and where applicable; and 2) resides within the Company’s approved service area for wireless telephone services. enTouch Wireless has been approved by the California Public Utilities Commission as a California LifeLine Program provider. This benefit program is available to eligible California low-income households and is funded by the State of California.
Lifeline Program and Services
enTouch Wireless provides Lifeline service, which is a government assistance program funded by the Universal Service Fund Lifeline program and administered by the Universal Service Administrative Company. Willfully making false statements to obtain the Lifeline benefit can result in fines, imprisonment, de-enrollment, or being barred from the program. The program is limited to one (1) Lifeline benefit per household. A household is defined, for purposes of the Lifeline program, as any individual or group of individuals who live together at the same address and share income and expenses. Violation of the one per household limitation constitutes a violation of the Federal Communications Commission’s rules and will result in your de-enrollment from the program. The Lifeline service is a non-Transferable benefit, and you may not transfer this benefit to any other person regardless if they qualify for the Lifeline program. Only eligible consumers may enroll in the Lifeline program, and documentation is necessary for enrollment.
To qualify for enrollment in the Lifeline Program, applicants must complete an application form, provide supporting documentation that they meet the eligibility requirements, and certify, under penalty of perjury, that they will comply with the Lifeline rules. Except for the states that determine eligibility via an administrator (such as California) or by itself (such as Oregon), enTouch Wireless determines at its sole discretion whether an applicant meets the eligibility requirements to participate in the Lifeline Program.
Applicants who qualify and are enrolled in the Lifeline program will receive a free allotment of airtime minutes, units or data each month for as long as the applicant remains eligible for the program. The monthly airtime minutes, units or data provided by enTouch Wireless under any plan may vary from state to state and will be based upon the Plan option selected. You may call enTouch Wireless Customer Service at 866-488-8719 or go to www.enTouchwireless.com for more information.
To continue your enrollment in the Lifeline program, you must use your phone at least once every 30 days. Also, you must ‘re-certify’ annually that you are qualified for continued enrollment in the Lifeline program as required by the FCC or your state regulatory commission or other agency administering the Lifeline program in your state. Additionally, enTouch Wireless may require you to re-certify your continued eligibility for Lifeline at any time, and failure to do so will result in the termination of your Lifeline benefit. You must notify enTouch Wireless within 30 days if (1) you cease to participate in a federal or state qualifying program or your annual household income exceeds the applicable federal poverty guidelines; (2) you receive more than one Lifeline-supported service; (3) another member of your household is receiving a Lifeline benefit or (4) you for any other reason no longer satisfy the criteria for receiving the Lifeline support. Your enrollment in the Lifeline program may also be cancelled upon the request of a state and/or federal authority.
On December 1, 2017, Lifeline subscribers in all states will be on a Lifeline plan that meets the minimum standards established by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). The Lifeline plans provide some broadband data, voice minutes, and text messages for FREE. Your Lifeline plan will reload each month on your monthly-anniversary date for eligible subscribers. A variety of top ups with voice, text or broadband data services can be purchased to supplement your Lifeline plan.
30-Day Usage Requirement:
- Under the new Lifeline rules, you must use your Lifeline-supported service at least once every 30 days. Usage includes: (1) completing an outbound call or using data; (2) purchasing minutes or data to add to your plan; (3) answering an incoming call from a party other than your carrier; (4) responding to direct contact from your carrier and confirming that you want to continue receiving the service; or (5) sending a text message. If we detect 30 days of non-usage, we will give you notice with a 15 day grace period before de-enrolling you for non-usage. If you do not respond to the notice, you will be de-enrolled.
For California Residents only: California LifeLine Enrollment/Transfer Limitations:
- 30 Day Waiting Period for an Enrollment Request for the California LifeLine Discounts for Cell Phone Service
- When a consumer submits an enrollment request to receive the California LifeLine discounts for cell phone service the consumer has to wait up to 30 days to submit another enrollment request. A consumer CANNOT have multiple enrollment requests for the California LifeLine discounts for cell phone service going at the same time. The 30-day waiting period ends when either 1) the California LifeLine Administrator sends the final eligibility decision, 2) the enrollment request is cancelled, or 3) the 30 days have passed since the enrollment request, whichever occurs first. After the 30-day clock stops, a consumer may then submit another enrollment request for the California LifeLine discounts for cell phone service, as applicable. A consumer can independently cancel an enrollment request by contacting the California LifeLine Administrator by phone at 877-858- 7463 or going to Check Your Status at www.californialifeline.com The cell phone company can also cancel an enrollment request.

Acceptable Use Policy
Prohibited Network Use (Unlimited Services)
Services and equipment may not be used for any unlawful, fraudulent, harassing, or abusive purpose. enTouch Wireless service is for personal use only. By requesting Services, you agree that you will not use Services and equipment in any unlawful, fraudulent or abusive manner. enTouch Wireless reserves the right, without notice or limitation, to limit, deny, terminate, end, modify, disconnect, or suspend Service if any individual engages in any prohibited voice, text, or data uses detailed below, or if enTouch Wireless determines, on a case-by-case basis, that action is necessary to protect its wireless network, business, equipment, or Services from harm or degradation resulting from such prohibited uses.
- Voice & Text Services: enTouch Wireless provides its voice and text Services solely for live dialogue between, and initiated by, individuals for personal use and as otherwise described in this policy. You may not use enTouch Wireless voice and text Services for monitoring services, data transmissions, transmission of broadcasts, transmission of recorded material, telemarketing, broadcast or autodialed calls or texts, other commercial uses, or other connections that do not consist of uninterrupted live dialogue between individuals. This Service may not be used in a manner that interferes with other enTouch Wireless customers’ use of the service. Service levels of other customers may be impaired when users place abnormally high numbers of calls, send or receive very high numbers of messages, or repeatedly make calls of abnormally long duration compared with other enTouch Wireless customers. Use of more than 3,000 units within a 30-day period or less may trigger a review of the usage in accordance with this Acceptable Use Policy.
- Data Services: enTouch Wireless data Services are provided only for personal (i.e., non-commercial) use, which includes web surfing, sending and receiving email, photographs and other similar messaging activities, and the non-continuous streaming of videos, downloading files or online gaming. enTouch Wireless data Services may not be used for any of the following uses: (1) to generate excessive levels of Internet traffic through the continuous, unattended streaming, downloading or uploading of videos, music, or other files or to operate hosting services including, but not limited to, web or gaming hosting; (2) to maintain continuous active network connections to the Internet, for example, through a web camera or machine-to-machine connections that do not involve active participation by a person; (3) to disrupt email use by others using automated or manual routines, including, but not limited to “auto-responders” or cancel bots or other similar routines; (4) to transmit or facilitate any unsolicited or unauthorized advertising, telemarketing, promotional materials, “junk mail,” unsolicited commercial or bulk email, or fax; (5) for activities that adversely affect the ability of other people to use either enTouch Wireless’ or other parties’ Internet-based resources, including, but not limited to, “denial of service” (DoS) attacks against another network host or individual user; (6) for an activity that connects any device to Personal Computers (including without limitation, laptops), or other equipment for the purpose of transmitting wireless data over the network (unless customer is using an enTouch Wireless handset designated for such usage); or (7) for any other reason that violates our policy of providing Service for individual use.
The prohibited uses in this section also apply to unlimited plans. Unlimited does not mean unreasonable use. If enTouch Wireless finds that you are using an unlimited voice or text Service offering for any of the prohibited uses in this section, enTouch Wireless may at its option terminate your Service or change your plan to one with no unlimited usage components. enTouch Wireless will provide notice that it intends to take any of the above actions, and will give you an opportunity to terminate the Agreement. Unlimited talk and text includes talk and text within the U.S. only.
Availability
Company provides the ability to send and receive voice-grade calls over all domestic distances (local and long distance) via a wireless voice-grade connection to the public switched telephone network. Our voice Services provide the ability to send and receive voice-grade calls within the nationwide (domestic) operating range of the enTouch Wireless Coverage Area. Roaming services are not available. There is power back-up for the underlying enTouch systems that support enTouch LifeLine wireless service as well as underlying carrier power backup systems are in place in accordance with Federal and state requirements, but service may still be limited or unavailable due to outages of power required for operation of equipment on towers or other facilities. Coverage and quality of Services may be affected by conditions within or beyond our control, including atmospheric, geographic, topographic conditions, or network modifications by the underlying carrier that render devices or services obsolete. We do not guarantee that there will be no interruptions or delays in Services. Your enTouch Wireless phone will not accept the services of any wireless provider other than enTouch Wireless.
Services Unavailable At Home
If you fail to receive a voice-grade connection, notify enTouch Customer Support. enTouch Customer Support will (1) promptly attempt to restore voice service, or if not possible, (2) provide telephone service using a different network carrier if offered by enTouch and if you agree to that change; or (3) allow you to discontinue service. No termination fees or penalties apply.
Phone Number
We assign telephone numbers and other personal identifiers in connection with the Services. Unless we provide you advance notice in writing, you have no proprietary right to any such identifiers, and we reserve the right to change them upon notice to you. You do not have any property right to your phone number. It may be changed or reassigned. In the event that you become entitled to transfer a personal identifier to another party to obtain any Services we provide you, we reserve the right, prior to honoring the request for transfer, to charge a fee for the transfer and to collect any money owed by you for Services and Equipment.
Charges
Eligible Lifeline subscribers will receive free airtime as part of your enTouch Wireless service. Free and purchased airtime is measured in ‘units’ for voice and text service. One (1) unit equals one (1) minute, and one (1) unit equals one (1) text message. “1 unit = 1 minute = 1 text”. Airtime is used in one-minute increments and any fraction of a minute is rounded up and charged at the full minute rate; calls are measured from the time the network begins to process the call (before the phone rings or the call is answered) through the termination of the call. Some plans include free data usage. Data is measured in megabytes which is decremented at the rate of content downloaded/uploaded to the network. More information on data plans & usage is available through Customer Support by dialing 611.
For California Residents only: enTouch Wireless has been approved by the California Public Utilities Commission as a California LifeLine Program provider. This benefit program is available to eligible California low-income households and is funded by the State of California. The California LifeLine plan offerings enTouch has available are listed at the end of the Terms of Service.
The Company does not differentiate domestic long distance telephone usage from local usage; customers utilize their minutes of use at the same rate for each type of call. You may also choose to add Airtime through a Top Up card or other commerce channel. This airtime may be invalidated if not paid for by the retailer. Any rollover minutes associated with a plan offering expire after 60 days from the date the minutes were issued.
Unless noted in writing otherwise, the minutes, units or data service is available for 30-days of use from when the top up card or product is activated on the device. When the 30-days of use expire, access to the minutes, units or data services will end and any unused minutes, units or data services will expire. There is no refund or reimbursement for expired minutes, units or data. Prior to shipping, the minutes, units or data services are activated on the device. A customer may call Customer Service at 866.488.8719 to find the days remaining to use the current minutes, units or data services.
For most forms of wireless Service, your usage will be charged from the time you first initiate contact between your phone or other wireless device and the network until the network connection is broken, whether or not you are successful in connecting with the service with which you seek to connect, even if the connection is later broken or dropped.

Arbitration
Any dispute arising out of the Agreement or relating to the Services and Equipment must be settled by arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association in Des Moines, Iowa. Information regarding this procedure may be found at www.adr.org. Each party will bear the cost of preparing and prosecuting its case. We will reimburse you for any filing or hearing fees to the extent they exceed what your court costs would have been if your claim had been resolved in a state court having jurisdiction. The arbitrator has no power or authority to alter or modify the Agreement, including the foregoing Limitation of Liability section. All claims must be arbitrated individually, and there will be no consolidation or class treatment of any claims. This provision is subject to the Federal Arbitration Act.
You maintain your right to file a complaint with the applicable state commission regarding the service provided and/or charges imposed by enTouch Wireless. Nothing in this paragraph or this agreement in any way eliminates or abridges that right. Please see ‘Concerns, Complaints or Disputes’ for more information before proceeding to Arbitration.
Georgia Residents: Arbitration is the method for settling any dispute unless otherwise agreed to by both parties. Arbitration will be held in Georgia unless otherwise agreed to by the parties.
