TERMS & CONDITIONS 

1. You understand and accept these Terms and Conditions and agree to pay for these services according to the Billing Policies currently in effect. Billing is done through direct debit through your credit card company on a monthly, quarterly, semi-annual or annual basis according to our current rates unless other payment arrangements have been setup in advance (payment by personal or company check).

2. If we do not receive payment when due, your account may be locked. There will be a five dollar($5.00) charge to unlock your account. If you do not make a payment within 30 days of your due date, your account may be terminated. Termination of your account does not remove your responsibility under this agreement to pay all fees incurred, including any collection fees incurred by Online Montana. Late fees of 1.5% per month will be charged on outstanding balances. You will notify Online Montana of any changes in account contact information, such as your address or telephone number. You may cancel your account at any time upon prior 10 day written notice to us. Monthly and discounted long term charges must be paid in advance. You are responsible for keeping track of your time-on line. Hourly usage in excess of your base level will be billed at the end of each billing cycle in addition to your monthly base access fees. VISA, MASTERCARD, personal and company checks are accepted ($15 charge for any returned checks.) Payment is due within ten (10) days of billing. Late payment may result in service disruption. Such interruption does not relieve you from the obligation to pay past due and ongoing charges. Monthly service provided is charged from the first day of the month through the last day of the month. Online Montana does not pro-rate services. All customers are charged for a full month service regardless of the date service was started or canceled. If you do not use the full service hours you have agreed upon you are still obligated to pay for the service. Cancellation does not relieve you of your past due obligations and charges. If you default, you agree to pay Online Montana reasonable expenses, including attorney and collection fees, incurred in enforcing its rights under these Terms and Conditions. You will notify Online Montana promptly of any changes in your account contact, information, such as address and telephone number.
