Service Address.
You must provide the address which will be associated with
the Service ("Service Address") during the registration
process. The service address you provide must be in the same
rate center as the Business or Home number you have
selected. Failure to provide the correct and proper Service
Address may result in misdirecting 911 calls to the
incorrect PSAP or emergency operator and/or the failure to
reach the correct location and render emergency service when
requested. You acknowledge that 911 dialing will not
function properly if you move your Equipment to another
Service Address, either temporarily or permanently, unless
the new Service Address has been properly recorded and is in
an area for which VoIPCo Inc. / No Contract VoIP provides
911 Emergency Dialing. You may change your Service Address
by calling VoIPCo Inc. / No Contract VoIP at
866 550-0005 and a
representative will take the new address and enter it in the
system and THEN CALL THE TEST
NUMBER 933 AND YOUR ADDRESS WILL BE READ TO YOU.
by following the procedures specified on the VoIPCo Inc. /
No Contract VoIP website. Change of Service Address will
take a minimum of ten business days to properly update the
911 emergency databases.
911 Service Limitations.
The following additional limitations apply to 911 Emergency
Dialing when it is provided by VoIPCo Inc. / No Contract
VoIP:
-
VoIPCo Inc. / No Contract VoIP service is only available
in areas where 911 services can be provided to new
customers.
-
VoIPCo Inc. / No Contract VoIP 911 service will not
function if the Equipment is not configured properly or
if your VoIPCo Inc. / No Contract VoIP Service is not
functioning for any reason.
This includes a broadband or electrical power outage or
if your broadband, ISP, or VoIPCo Inc. / No Contract
VoIP Service is suspended or terminated. In addition, in
the event of a local disaster, there is a greater
possibility that a VoIPCo Inc. / No Contract VoIP 911
call will produce a busy signal, fail to be completed,
or experience long connection times due to network
congestion.
-
VoIPCo Inc. / No Contract VoIP 911 Service will not
function properly for up to 30 days after you are able
to make outbound calls with your Service.
Because of the time it takes to properly update the 911
emergency databases, your 911 service will not be
available immediately.
-
You must select a Business or Household (primary) Number
that is associated with your Service Address; otherwise,
911 service will not be available.
Calls to 911 service route to the appropriate emergency
administrator based on the telephone number you have
chosen and the geographic location that you have
provided to VoIPCo Inc. / No Contract VoIP. 911 must be
available in your area for VoIPCo Inc. / No Contract
VoIP to offer you service.
-
If you move or intend to use your VoIPCo Inc. / No
Contract VoIP service away from the geographic location
you have registered with VoIPCo Inc. / No Contract VoIP,
you must update your account with your new location.
You may change your Service Address by contacting VoIPCo
Inc. / No Contract VoIP Member Services at 866 550-0005.
Since it may take up to 30 days to properly update the
911 emergency databases, you should NOT rely on VoIPCo
Inc. / No Contract VoIP Service for 911 emergency
dialing if you are using the Service when you are
temporarily traveling away from home.
Enhanced 911 ("E911").
In certain areas in which VoIPCo Inc. / No Contract VoIP
provides 911 Emergency Dialing, VoIPCo Inc. / No Contract
VoIP provides E911 capabilities. When the caller dials 911
on a VoIPCo Inc. / No Contract VoIP-enabled phone with E911
service, VoIPCo Inc. / No Contract VoIP will automatically
deliver the location information you provided at the time of
activation, or as subsequently and properly updated,
validated, and acknowledged by VoIPCo Inc. / No Contract
VoIP, to the PSAP with the 911 call. If the location
information you provided is incorrect, the emergency call
may be misdirected to a PSAP that does not serve your
location, which as a result may be unable to render
sufficient emergency service. You acknowledge that you are
solely responsible for maintaining accurate physical
location information on your VoIPCo Inc. / No Contract VoIP
account. If you move your VoIPCo Inc. / No Contract VoIP
equipment to another location, you must update your Service
Address in accordance with the instructions on the VoIPCo
Inc. / No Contract VoIP website.
Basic 911.
In some areas in which VoIPCo Inc. / No Contract VoIP
provides 911 Emergency Dialing, VoIPCo Inc. / No Contract
VoIP may not support E911, and your physical location
information may not be automatically delivered to the PSAP
with the 911 call. The PSAP or local emergency dispatcher
receiving a non-E911 emergency call may not be able to
capture and/or retain automatic number or location
information. This means that the dispatcher may not know the
phone number or physical location of the person who is
making the 911 call. Therefore, a caller dialing 911
using VoIPCo Inc. / No Contract VoIP may need to immediately
tell the dispatcher the location of the emergency, and the
caller must not prematurely disconnect the line, since the
dispatcher may not have the phone number to call back the
caller. If the caller is unable to speak or sufficiently
describe the location, the emergency dispatcher may not be
able to render emergency service to the appropriate location.
Acknowledgement.
You understand and acknowledge that VoIPCo Inc. / No
Contract VoIP 911 Emergency Dialing has certain
characteristics that distinguish it from traditional,
legacy, circuit-switched 911 service. These
characteristics may make VoIPCo Inc. / No Contract VoIP
unsuitable to some users. You should carefully evaluate
your circumstances when deciding to activate VoIPCo Inc. /
No Contract VoIP Service. You acknowledge that it is your
responsibility to determine the technology or combination of
technologies best suited to meet your emergency calling
needs, and to make the necessary provisions for access to
emergency calling services, such as maintaining a
conventional phone line or wireless phone as a backup means
of completing emergency calls. You authorize us to disclose
your name and address to third parties involved with
providing 911 Emergency Dialing to you, without limitation.
Suspension of Your Account. You acknowledge and
understand that a Service outage due to suspension of your
account as a result of billing issues or any other reason,
including, but not limited to, those reasons described
elsewhere in this Agreement, will prevent all
service, which will include Emergency 911 Dialing.
Indemnification. You acknowledge and understand that VoIPCo
Inc. / No Contract VoIP will not be liable for any Service
outage and/or inability to dial 911 using VoIPCo Inc. / No
Contract VoIP or to otherwise access emergency service
personnel due to the characteristics and limitations of
VoIPCo Inc. / No Contract VoIP Service. You agree to defend,
indemnify, and hold harmless VoIPCo Inc. / No Contract VoIP,
its officers, directors, employees, affiliates, and agents
and any other service provider who furnishes services to you
in connection with the Service, from any and all claims,
losses, damages, fines, penalties, costs, and expenses
(including, without limitation, attorney fees) by, or on
behalf of, you or any third party user of the Service
relating to the failure or outage of the Service, including
those related to 911 dialing.
You acknowledge that VoIPCo Inc. / No Contract VoIP does not
offer Lifeline service, and that we strongly recommend that
you always have an alternative means of accessing emergency
service. This provision supplements the general
indemnification provision found below.

does not excuse you from paying all unpaid, accrued charges
due in relation to the Agreement
Service Distinctions.

treatment is applied to the Service as compared with
