11. PRICING AND PAYMENT. In consideration for your receipt of the Service and use of any Equipment or Other Devices if applicable, you agree to pay us as follows:
(a) Service Fees. Billing for the Service will begin automatically upon installation of the Service and continue until the Service is terminated by you or by us in accordance with this Agreement. Frontier may, in its sole discretion, change or modify the rates you are charged for Services, Programming, Equipment or Other Devices (if applicable) at any time. Equipment and Other Devices are priced separately from the Service and are not subject to promotional pricing or term agreement commitments. Regular Service and Equipment charges are billed each month in advance. Your first bill for Services may include pro-rated charges for a partial month period prior to the beginning of your first full monthly billing cycle. You agree to pay us in advance, at our rates in effect at the time, through all periods until the Service is terminated. Other transactional charges, such as for the On Demand Services, are billed after the applicable service or feature has been ordered or provided to you. Frontier may, in its sole discretion, retroactively bill you for Services, On Demand Services, Programming Equipment, Other Devices (if applicable), taxes and other fees and charges if it determines the prior billing was missed, incomplete or incorrect. You may also be required, based on your ordering and payment history, to provide pre-invoice payment by credit card or such other payment method as we may designate for transactional services such as the On Demand Services. You agree to pay all applicable charges for the Service and Equipment by the due date set forth in your monthly invoice. Rates for the Service and other charges may be changed by us at any time, subject to prior notice as required by applicable law. If we provide you with notice, it will be provided as set forth in Section 14 below. Your invoice may also contain certain other charges (including, without limitation, taxes and other fees and charges such as franchise related fees, public education government fees, account activation and installation charges, and Frontier-initiated surcharges and fees, including regional sports network (RSN) fees, broadcast fees, administrative or reactivation fees, customized setup fees, programming cost increases or other cost recovery assessments, interest on past due balances, returned payment fees, ETFs, Equipment, Retired Equipment and Other Device charges and fees and other nonrecurring or recurring charges) and you agree to pay such other charges by the due date set forth in your monthly invoice. Frontier may change the amount of or basis for determining any fee or charge or institute a new fee or charge. The waiver of any fees or charges is at our discretion. If you cancel any component of a Bundled Services plan, the monthly charges for the remaining services on your account will convert to the applicable existing non-discounted monthly service rate.
(b) Bundled Services Plans and Plans with Minimum Terms. Frontier may provide discounted term arrangements, gifts and/or promotions to customers who purchase multiple services at the - period term contract arrangement. If you subscribe to a Bundled Services plan with a term commitment, you agree to maintain such Services for the minimum term of that plan. You understand and agree that you must continue to purchase all Bundled Services, without change, for the minimum term agreed upon to receive any promotional offer, discounted rates, gifts or other incentives. You agree to keep the Bundled Services during this initial term. You agree that if you change or discontinue any part of a Bundled Services plan, you may lose all promotional pricing, discounted rates, gifts or other incentives associated with the Bundled Services plan, that the price for each Bundled Service may increase, and that any changes will constitute a failure to fulfill the minimum term agreed upon to receive the promotional rate, discount, gift or other incentive. If applicable, the term commitment will automatically renew for the same time period at then applicable rates each time it expires unless you notify Frontier or we notify you of termination before the term commitment period ends. At the end of your term commitment, promotional and other discounts may no longer apply and different Service, Equipment and Other Devices charges may apply going forward.
(c) Third-Party Charges. You acknowledge and agree that you may incur charges with third parties that are separate and apart from the Service fees charged by us. These may include charges resulting from accessing on-line services or purchasing products and services through interactive options available through the Service. You are solely responsible for all charges payable to third parties, including all applicable taxes. In addition, you are solely responsible for protecting the security of credit card and other personal information provided to others in connection with such transactions.
(d) Late Payment and Fees. Payment in full is due no later than the due date indicated on your bill. If we do not receive your full and complete payment by the due date, as permitted by applicable law, we may immediately suspend or terminate your Service and charge you a late fee on the unpaid balance. We may report information about your Service account, including unpaid balances, to credit bureaus. Late payments, missed payments or other defaults on your account may be reflected in your credit report. We may also charge you a reactivation fee or decline to reinstate Service if Service is suspended or terminated. In the event we utilize a collection agency or resort to legal action to recover an unpaid balance, you agree to reimburse us for all expenses incurred to recover such unpaid balance, including reasonable attorneys' fees and costs. You expressly authorize, and specifically consent to allowing, Frontier and/or its outside collection agencies, outside counsel, or other agents to contact you in connection with any and all matters relating to unpaid past due charges billed by Frontier to you. You agree that, for attempts to collect unpaid past due charges, such contact may be made to any mailing address, telephone number, cellular phone number, email address, or any other electronic address that you have provided, or may in the future provide, to Frontier.
(e) Customer Deposits. We may require that you provide us with a refundable deposit ("Customer Deposit") prior to or upon the activation or reactivation of the Service. We may also require an additional Customer Deposit after activation of the Service if you fail to pay any amounts when due hereunder or seek to upgrade your Service. We may apply Customer Deposit against any unpaid amounts at any time. Following termination of Service, we shall return a sum equal to the Customer Deposit, without interest unless otherwise required by law, minus any amounts due on your account including, without limitation, any amounts owed to us for unreturned or damaged Equipment.
(f) Questions About Your Monthly Invoice. Subject to applicable law, if you intend to dispute a charge on your bill, you must contact us within 60 days of the date you receive the bill in question. UNDISPUTED PORTIONS OF YOUR BILLING STATEMENT MUST BE PAID BY THE DUE DATE TO AVOID A LATE FEE AND POSSIBLE SUSPENSION OR TERMINATION OF THE SERVICE.
(g) Payments. Except as otherwise permitted under applicable law, you agree that you will pay your bill by check, credit or debit card, electronic funds transfer payments or such other payment method as we may designate. If you have authorized payment by credit or debit card or by debiting a bank account, no additional notice or consent is required before we invoice the credit or debit card or debit the bank account for all amounts due to us for any reason. You agree Frontier may charge you a convenience fee associated with a customer service representative processing your payment. The outstanding balance is due in full each month. If any bank or other financial institution refuses to honor any payment, draft or instrument submitted for payment to your account, we may charge you a fee in accordance with applicable law. Based on your election and subject to our approval, Frontier or its agent will bill you directly, or bill your charge card or local Frontier telephone bill (where available). IF YOU ELECT TO BE BILLED ON YOUR FRONTIER TELEPHONE BILL, BY USING THE SERVICES YOU AGREE TO HAVE ALL SERVICE CHARGES INCLUDED ON YOUR TELEPHONE BILL. IF YOU SUBSCRIBE TO BUNDLED SERVICES PLAN, THEN ALL OF THE BUNDLED SERVICES MUST BE BILLED ON YOUR FRONTIER TELEPHONE BILL.
(h) Consents Regarding Credit. We may evaluate your credit history before modifying or providing you Service. In order to establish an account with us and/or obtain or modify the Service, you hereby authorize us to obtain a report from a consumer credit agency and to exchange information with others in connection with determining your creditworthiness. If you are delinquent in any payment to us, you also authorize us to report any late payment or nonpayment to consumer credit reporting agencies.
(i) Special Arrangements. Some customers may receive the Services through a special arrangement with their property owner, property manager or association. If you have such an arrangement, this Agreement shall apply to the Services, except that Frontier may not directly charge you for the Services (including Equipment) provided to you as part of the special arrangement. You will be responsible for fees and charges associated with additional Service orders. You may also have an additional agreement or contract with your property owner, property manager or association that covers any special arrangement. Any such additional agreement or contract is outside the terms of this Agreement and Frontier is not responsible for nor bound by the terms of any agreement you may have with your property owner, property manager or association.
(j) Refunds. You authorize Frontier to use outside payment processing agencies or other companies for purposes of paying any refund owed to you. You agree that we or the outside payment processing agency or other company that is responsible for your refund may determine in our or, if applicable, their sole and absolute discretion the form of any refund that we issue to you under this Agreement, and such form may include a credit on your next statement, a check, or a prepaid debit card.
12. WARRANTIES AND LIMITATION OF LIABILITY.
(a) Service Limitation and Interruptions. Some Programming may not be available in certain areas due to legal, regulatory, and contractual prohibitions, including restrictions of the Federal Communications Commission, sports blackouts or Programming expiration, termination or discontinuation. In addition, the Service may be interrupted from time to time for a variety of reasons, and Frontier does not represent or warrant that the Service or the Equipment, or any Other Devices, will be available or perform in a manner that meets your needs. You acknowledge and understand that the Services will not function in the event of a network interruption. Frontier will not be liable for any inconvenience, loss, liability or damage resulting from any preemption, loss, blackout, expiration, termination or discontinuation of Programming or content availability or interruption of the Service, directly or indirectly caused by Frontier, you or third parties or resulting from any circumstances, including, but not limited to, causes attributable to you or your property, inability to obtain access to the Premises, failure of a communications satellite or our network, inability to access or interruptions in accessing Programming, loss of use of poles or other utility facilities, strike, labor dispute, riot or insurrection, war, explosion, act of terrorism, malicious mischief, fire, flood or other acts of God, failure or reduction of power, or any court order, law, act or order of government restricting or prohibiting the operation or delivery of the Service.

Frontier encourages you to contact our Customer Service department if you have concerns or complaints about your Service or Frontier. Generally, customer complaints can be satisfactorily resolved in this way. In the unlikely event that you are not able to resolve your concerns through our Customer Service department, you and Frontier each agree to resolve all disputes through binding arbitration or a small claims court rather than lawsuits in courts of general jurisdiction, jury trials, or class actions. Arbitration is more informal than a lawsuit. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, allows for more limited discovery than in court, and is subject to very limited review by courts. Arbitrators can award the same damages and individual relief affecting individual parties that a court can award, including an award of attorneys’ fees if the law allows. For any non-frivolous claim that does not exceed $75,000, Frontier will pay all costs of the arbitration. Moreover, in arbitration you are entitled to recover attorneys’ fees from Frontier for your own dispute to the same extent as you would be in court. In addition, under certain circumstances (as explained below), Frontier will pay you more than the amount of the than what Frontier has offered you to settle the dispute.
Arbitration Agreement:
(a) You and Frontier agree to arbitrate all disputes and claims between us related to or associated with the Service. This agreement to arbitrate is intended to be broadly interpreted. It includes, but is not limited to, all claims arising out of or relating to any aspect of our relationship, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation or any other legal theory, that arose either before or during this or any prior Agreement, or that may arise after termination of this Agreement. It also includes claims that currently are the subject of class action or purported class action litigation in which you are not a member of a certified class. References to “Frontier”, “you”, and “us” include our respective subsidiaries, affiliates, agents, employees, predecessors in interest, successors, and assigns, as well as all authorized or unauthorized users or beneficiaries of Frontier Services under this or prior Agreements between us.
Notwithstanding the foregoing agreement, Frontier agrees that it will not use arbitration to initiate debt collection against you except in response to claims you have made in arbitration. In addition, by agreeing to resolve disputes through arbitration, you and Frontier each agree to unconditionally waive the right to a trial by jury or to participate in a class action, representative proceeding, or private attorney general action. Instead of arbitration, either party may bring an individual action in a small claims court for disputes or claims that are within the scope of the small claims court's authority. In addition, you may bring any issues to the attention of federal, state, or local agencies, including, for example, the Federal Communications Commission. Such agencies can, if the law allows, seek relief against us on your behalf.
This Agreement evidences a transaction in interstate commerce, and thus the Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this provision, even after the Agreement is terminated.
(b) A party who intends to seek arbitration must first send to the other, Frontier should be addressed to: Frontier Communications, Legal Department, 401 Merritt 7, Norwalk, CT 06851 (“Notice Address”). The Notice must (1) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute, and (2) set forth the specific relief sought (“Demand”). If Frontier and you do not reach an agreement to resolve the claim within 30 days after the Notice is received, you or Frontier may commence an arbitration proceeding. During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by Frontier or you shall not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator determines the amount, if any, to which you or Frontier is entitled.
(c) The arbitration will be governed by the Consumer Arbitration Rules ("AAA Rules") of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA"), as modified by the terms of this Agreement, and will be administered by the AAA. Procedure, rule and fee information is available from the AAA online at http://www.adr.org, by calling the AAA at 1.800.778.7879, or by calling Frontier at 1.877.462.7320, option 3. The arbitrator is bound by the terms of this Agreement. All issues are for the arbitrator to decide, except that issues relating to the scope and enforceability of the arbitration provision, including the scope, interpretation, and enforceability of section (f) below, are for a court to decide. If your claim is for $25,000 or less, you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator, through a telephonic hearing, or by an in-person hearing as established by the AAA Rules. If your claim exceeds $25,000, the right to a hearing will be determined by the AAA Rules. Unless Frontier and you agree otherwise, any in-person hearings will take place at a location that the AAA selects in the state of your primary residence unless you and Frontier agree otherwise. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator shall issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based.
Frontier agrees to pay your AAA filing, administration, and arbitrator fees (“AAA fees”) for claims for damages of up to $75,000 and for claims for non-monetary relief up to the value of $75,000, as measured from either your or Frontier's perspective (but excluding attorneys’ fees and expenses). After Frontier receives notice that you have commenced arbitration, it will promptly reimburse you for your payment of the filing fee, unless your claim is for greater than $75,000. (The filing fee currently is $200 but is subject to change by the AAA. If you are unable to pay this fee, Frontier will pay it directly upon receiving a written request.) In addition, Frontier will not pay your share of the AAA fees if the arbitrator finds that either your claim or the relief sought is frivolous or brought for an improper purpose, as measured by the standards of Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b). In such case, the payment of AAA fees will be governed by the AAA Rules, and you agree to reimburse Frontier for all monies previously disbursed by it that are otherwise your obligation to pay under the AAA Rules. If you initiate an arbitration in which you seek relief valued at more than $75,000 (exclusing attorneys’ fees and expenses), as measured from either your or Frontier’s perspective, the payment of AAA fees will be governed by the AAA Rules.
(d) If Frontier offers to settle your dispute prior to appointment of the arbitrator and you do not accept the offer, and the arbitrator awards you an amount of money that is more than Frontier's last written settlement offer, then Frontier will pay you the amount of the award or $5,000 (“the alternative payment”), whiever is greater. If Frontier does not offer to settle your dispute prior to appointment of the arbitrator, and the arbitrator awards you any relief on the merits, then Frontier agrees to pay you the amount of the award or the alternative payment, whichever is greater. The arbitrator may make rulings and resolve disputes as to the payment and reimbursement of fees, expenses, and the alternative payment at any time during the proceeding and upon request from either party made within fourteen (14) days of the arbitrator’s ruling on the merits.
(e) Although Frontier may have a right to an award of attorneys' fees and expenses if it prevails, Frontier agrees that it will not seek such an award.
(f) You and Frontier agree to seek, and further agree that the arbitrator may award, only such relief whether in the form of damages, an injunction, or other non-monetary relief as is necessary to resolve any individual injury that either you or Frontier have suffered or may suffer. In particular, if either you or Frontier seeks any nonmonetary relief, including injunctive or declaratory relief, the arbitrator may award relief on an individual basis only, and may not award relief that affects individuals or entities other than you or Frontier. YOU AND FRONTIER AGREE THAT WE EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN AN INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, REPRESENTATIVE, OR PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL PROCEEDING. FURTHERMORE, UNLESS BOTH YOU AND FRONTIER AGREE OTHERWISE IN WRITING, THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON'S CLAIMS, AND MAY NOT OTHERWISE PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A CLASS, REPRESENTATIVE, OR PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL PROCEEDING. If a court decides that applicable law precludes enforcement of any of this paragraph (f)'s limitations as to a particular claim for relief, then that claim (and only that claim) must be severed from the arbitration and may be brought in court. Further, an arbitrator's award and any judgment confirming it shall apply only to that specific case and cannot be used in any other case except to enforce the award itself.
(g) Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, you and Frontier agree that if Frontier makes any change to this arbitration provision during the period of time that you are receiving Frontier services, you may reject that change by providing Frontier with written notice within 30 days of the change to the Notice Address provided in (b) above and require Frontier to adhere to the language in this provision. By rejecting any future change, you are agreeing that you will arbitrate any dispute between us in accordance with the language of this provision.
16. GENERAL PROVISIONS.
(a) All obligations of the parties under this Agreement, which, by their nature, would continue beyond the termination of this Agreement, including without limitation, those relating to Warranties and Limitation of Liability, Indemnification and Dispute Resolution with Frontier by Binding Arbitration, shall survive such termination.
(b) Assignment. You may not assign or otherwise transfer this Agreement, or your rights or obligations under it, in whole or in part, to any other person. Any attempt to do so shall be void. Furthermore, you agree to notify us of any changes of ownership of, or occupancy in, the Premises immediately upon such transfer of ownership or change in occupancy. We may assign all or any part of this Agreement with or without notice and you agree to make all subsequent payments as directed.
(c) Applicable Law. Except as otherwise required by law, you and Frontier agree that the Federal Arbitration Act and the substantive laws of the state and local area in which your Premises is located, without reference to its principles of conflicts of laws, will be applied to govern, construe and enforce all of the rights and duties of the parties arising from or related in any way to the subject matter of this Agreement.
(d) As permitted under applicable laws and without limitation to other rights provided in this Agreement, you authorize Frontier to (a) disclose your account information, including your payment history and confidential information, to credit reporting agencies or private credit reporting associations, and (b) periodically obtain and use your credit report and other credit information from any source in connection with Frontier's offering of the Services and other services. You understand that if you fail to fulfill the terms of your obligations under this Agreement, Frontier may report your failure to a credit reporting agency.
(e) Frontier's failure at any time to insist upon strict compliance with any of the provisions of this Agreement shall not be construed to be a waiver of such terms in the future. Except where this Agreement specifically provides otherwise, if any provision of this Agreement is determined to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and the unenforceable portion shall be construed as nearly as possible to reflect the original intentions of the parties.
(f) This Agreement, including all Policies referred to herein, constitutes the entire agreement between you and Frontier with respect to the subject matter hereto and supersedes any and all prior or contemporaneous agreements whether written or oral. No changes by you to this Agreement shall be effective unless agreed to in a writing signed by an authorized person at Frontier.
(g) If any provision of this Agreement is found by a court or agency of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable, the parties nevertheless agree that the remaining provisions of these terms and conditions shall remain in full force and effect. The foregoing does not apply to the prohibition against class or representative actions that is part of the arbitration clause; if that provision is found to be unenforceable, the arbitration clause (but only the arbitration clause) shall be null and void.
(h) To the fullest extent permitted by law, you and Frontier agree that regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, any claim or cause of action arising out of or related to use of the Service or this Agreement must be filed within one (1) year after such claim or cause of action arose or be forever barred.
(i) The section titles and paragraph headings in this Agreement are for convenience only and have no legal or contractual effect.
