Wireless terms of service 

our agreement with you 

Terms of Service are the legal rules and regulations that form part of the agreement governing your relationship with Bell Mobility. The Agreement is binding on you and us for each device that you use on our network and for any service we provide for you for your device. For the Terms of Service that govern you, you can refer to the documentation you received on activation or renewal of your device or service, as applicable. The current Terms of Service are set out here for convenient reference.

• 1. Definitions

  Committed Service Period: (A) The period of 30 days, or 12, 24 or 36 months, or any other period we offer and you select in which you choose to commit to receive Service for a Device, starting on the date Service for that Device is activated; and (B) for a data feature or plan, the period of 12 months starting on the date the data plan or feature is activated.

  Device: Any wireless communication device intended for use with the Services, including but not limited to a mobile phone, pager, smartphone, wireless modem, connection card or mobile Internet stick, handheld computer, SIM (subscriber identity module) card or other communicator, and any replacements or upgrades of these. 

  Service or Services: Any wireless voice, data and other services provided by or through Bell,  including monthly access, system access,  plans, airtime, data network access, data usage, 911 services (provision of emergency call routing), voicemail, call display, other features, long distance and roaming, paging, text, picture, video or other messaging, content, downloads, applications, streaming, browser usage, Internet access, Wi-Fi hotspot usage, other usage, wireless payment and other transactions, number transfers, data support, client care, activation, programming, changes (such as account transfer or change of rate plan), upgrades, "loaner" devices, out-of-warranty servicing, administration (such as for NSF cheques and reinstatement after suspension and collection efforts) and re-connection.  Devices are provisioned with certain Services; not all Services can be blocked at your request.  

  Term: The period starting on the date Service is activated for a Device and ending on the termination of this Agreement.

• 2. Services.

  Services are available in Bell's and its roaming partners' coverage areas, on compatible Devices where technology permits.  Bell and its roaming partners may (i) make changes to the network or other facilities (including changing technology, and, to provide a good experience for the majority of our customers and minimize capacity issues and degradation in network performance, we may take measures including temporarily reducing data throughput for a subset of customers who use a disproportionate amount of bandwidth); (ii) enlarge, reduce or change coverage areas; and (iii) change or end roaming partner relationships, all at their discretion and without notice.    Bell and its roaming partners are not liable for any changes in your ability to use the Services or the Device resulting from such changes.  You can refer to bell.ca/coverage for maps and other information about coverage and roaming, including roaming and long distance charges. If you roam in a roaming partner's coverage area (including Wi-Fi hotspot use) you are also subject to the terms and conditions of the roaming partner including any limitation or exclusion of liability.  

  Your rate plan may not be available with all the devices (whether provided by Bell or not) into which you insert a Bell SIM card, and pay-per-use charges may therefore apply.  If you use your Bell SIM card with a Device not purchased through Bell or its authorized dealers ("Non-Bell Device"), or without subscribing to a rate plan specific to the Bell Device or Non-Bell Device you use your SIM card with, some or all Services (including 911 services) may not work but you agree to continue to pay your monthly fees.  You also agree to pay any additional charges for Services which may apply due to the change in Device to another Bell Device or a Non-Bell Device.  You are responsible (a) to ensure your service plan is compatible with any Bell Device or Non-Bell Device, and (b) for charges that arise if you change the settings of your device or SIM card.  Non-Bell SIM cards cannot be activated on Bell's network or Services.  Services and rate plans may not be available on all Bell networks.  A different rate plan may apply if you move to another province.  Bell may restrict access to certain Services if you do not subscribe to a rate plan or feature that includes them.  Wireless modems, connection cards, mobile Internet sticks and other data-only Devices do not provide access to 911 services.

  If you subscribe to a rate plan under which you share airtime or other Services included in your monthly plan with other subscribers on your account (a "Share Plan"), these shared Services are available to the group of subscribers on a first come, first serve basis.  As a result, an individual subscriber may not be able to use the total amount of included Services set out in his/her Share Plan.  Certain Services in a Share Plan are not available for sharing with other subscribers.  Your total amount of shared Services available to the group of subscribers at any given time is subject to the size of the group and each Share Plan chosen by each group member.

• 3. Pricing and Adjustments.

  We will not increase your basic monthly voice plan charge or out-of-bundle voice airtime charge during any Committed Service Period, as long as you remain qualified to receive your chosen plan and Services during the Committed Service Period.  If you no longer qualify to receive a plan or the Services at the fees offered to you (for example, a corporate plan or employee plan, due to termination of employment or of a corporate agreement) then you agree Bell may transfer you to a comparable Service and plan, at the appropriate fees and charges for which you then qualify. During the Term we may increase other fees (including the System Access Fee), and charge additional fees for Services you subscribe to, after giving you 30 days advance notice.  Fees for other Services will be as posted from time to time on our website or notified by other means.  We may decide to offer upgrades or promotions with eligibility requirements, for a specified time period, at our discretion.  At the end of the time period, or if you stop meeting these requirements, we may remove promotions from your account without notice.   By accepting any upgrade credit we may offer to you for purchase of an upgrade to your Device, you agree to a new Committed Service Period as required to obtain the credit.  Your rate plan and Services may not be available with the upgrade Device. 

  If you have received promotional consideration, including a reduction or rebate on the price of your Device, you agree to either (a) continue to purchase Services from Bell for the Committed Service Period required by Bell, or (b) pay a Service price adjustment ( "Service Agreement Price Adjustment" or "SAPA") plus applicable taxes if (i) you terminate your Services before the end of the Committed Service Period, (ii) we terminate your Services for non-payment or other breach before the end of the Committed Service Period, or (iii) you do not activate the Device within 45 days of purchase date. The SAPA is the greater of (a) $100 or (b) $20 per month remaining in the Committed Service Period on termination up to a maximum of $400, plus applicable taxes. Other price adjustments may apply to special offers or promotions, and will be notified to you at or before the time you subscribe to the offer or promotion.

  If you have received additional promotional consideration, including additional reductions or rebates on the price of a Device, in connection with activating a data feature or plan on such Device, you agree to either (a) continue to purchase such data feature or plan for the Committed Service Period required by Bell, or (b) pay a data Service price adjustment ("Data Service Agreement Price Adjustment" or "DSAPA") plus applicable taxes if (i) you cancel such data plan or feature, or change to a lower-priced data plan or feature, (ii) we terminate  your Services for non-payment or other breach, before the end of the Committed Service Period or (iii) you do not activate the Device within 45 days of its purchase date.  The DSAPA is $200 plus applicable taxes.    At Bell's discretion the DSAPA may be reduced or apply for a shorter Committed Service Period, as communicated in writing to you.

• 4. Protection of your privacy.

• 7. Your telephone number and identifiers.

   

  You do not own the telephone number or other identifiers that we have provided or assigned to you and we reserve the right to change any of them if required. We will notify you in advance and we will not be liable for any costs, damages or losses associated with this change.

  Your telephone number may be automatically transmitted to the person you call, other carriers, or to us. You may permanently block the display by telling us when you activate your service, or on a per-call basis at any time.

  Blocking on a per-call basis

  If you have an EVDO/1XRTT phone, dial *67 before you dial the desired phone number. If you have an HSPA phone, dial #31# before you dial the desired phone number.

  Unblocking on a per-call basis

  If you've had your display permanently blocked, you can unblock it on a per-call basis. If you have an EVDO/1XRTT phone, dial *82 before you dial the desired phone number. If you have an HSPA phone, dial *31# before you dial the desired phone number.

• 8. Transferring Your Number to Bell.

  If you ask to transfer a phone number currently assigned to you from your existing service provider to Bell, you represent and warrant that you have the right to make the request and you authorize Bell to make the transfer-in request to the other service provider on your behalf and to share your name, telephone number, address and other personal information relevant to the transfer request with the other service provider. You agree to complete and sign a request form if necessary. The services of the other service provider, including any features, applications or content, IP address, or any device cannot be transferred to Bell. You must pay all amounts owing on your account with the other service provider, including early termination charges if applicable.

• 9. Transferring Your Number to Another Service Provider.

  If you want to transfer your wireless phone number to another service provider, then, as long as your account and phone number are active, Bell will process a "transfer-out" request from your new chosen service provider. You must pay any SAPA and/or DSAPA plus applicable taxes resulting from the termination of your Services, and the monthly charges applicable for the 30 days after the transfer is requested.  The Services, including any features, applications or content, IP address, or any Device cannot be transferred to your new service provider.  We may need to contact you in connection with a transfer-out request to make any adjustments to your rate plan, account, invoicing or services required due to the transfer-out request or termination of the Services, and you consent to such contact.

  Bell is not responsible, or liable to you in any way, for any interruption, disruption or disconnection of services associated with the telephone number which is the subject of a transfer request.

• 10. Warranty.

   

  The performance, quality, or suitability of your Device and any accessories or other equipment provided to you in connection with the Service are subject to the manufacturers' warranties and the specifications of Bell for the Device and such equipment, and any extended warranty you may have purchased. Your remedy for failure of a Device to meet any applicable warranty is specified in the manufacturer's warranty or extended warranty. Bell and/or the manufacturer may (but are not obligated to) perform out-of-warranty repair services.  Bell may charge you if you use a "loaner" device in connection with any repair services.  Charges for out-of-warranty repair services and "loaner" devices will be advised to you in advance.  Your Device is also subject to the return policy set out in the service agreement to which these Terms of Service are attached.

  For more details about warranties please visit bell.ca/warranty or a Bell retailer.  Dealers may have different warranty, repair and return policies.

  Unlocking a Device may void the manufacturer's warranty and Bell will not provide a warranty or any return policy for the unlocked Device. 

  WE DO NOT WARRANT OR GUARANTEE THAT THE DEVICE, EQUIPMENT OR SERVICES WILL OPERATE ERROR-FREE OR WITHOUT FAILURE OR INTERRUPTION, OR THAT ANY COMMUNICATIONS WILL BE PRIVATE OR SECURE.  THE POSSIBILITY OF CREATING OR MAINTAINING A MOBILE COMMUNICATION CONNECTION AND THE QUALITY OF THE CONNECTION ARE NOT EQUAL OR ADEQUATE IN EVERY LOCATION AT ANY TIME. SERVICES MAY BE ADVERSELY AFFECTED AND UNAVAILABLE AS A RESULT OF PHYSICAL FACTORS (SUCH AS BUILDINGS, TUNNELS, MOUNTAINS, ETC.), ATMOSPHERIC CIRCUMSTANCES, OR ADJUSTMENTS TO OR MAINTENANCE OF THE NETWORK, FAILURE IN THE INTERCONNECTION, JAMMING TRANSMITTERS, OR OTHER CAUSES.

  bell does not warrant or support (A) devices not purchased through bell or iTs authorized dealers, OR (b) bell devices that have been unlocked by any third party. 

  Bell disclaims any other representations, warranties and conditions, express, implied or statutory, EXCEPT to the extent that THIS disclaimer is expressly prohibited by any law to which Bell is subject.

  Your remedy for failure of a Service to meet any applicable warranty is a refund of charges related to any such failure of that Service lasting at least 24 hours to a maximum of $20, upon written request approved by us acting reasonably.

• 11. Updates.

  Bell may update the software, features and settings on your Device (including Non-Bell Devices with a Bell SIM card) Including   through "Over-The-Air" means as necessary, without notice, and you acknowledge and agree that such updates may be required in order to continue receiving the Services.

• 12. Pre-Authorized Payment.

   

  You expressly authorize Bell to charge your credit card or other pre-authorized payment vehicle the amount of any charges (including taxes) due under your account if (a) you have requested pre-authorized payment via credit card or other pre-authorized payment vehicle, (b) such charges (including any SAPA or DSAPA) are outstanding or (c) the Services and this Agreement are terminated. This will constitute Bell's sufficient authority for doing so. You promise that the credit card for which you have provided information to Bell is in your name, is valid and has not expired. You promise to promptly advise Bell if your credit card information changes due to its loss, theft, cancellation or expiry or other reason.

• 13. Credit and Spending Limit.

  We may impose a credit and spending limit on your account at any time.  The Services may be suspended at any time if your balance, including unbilled usage and pending charges and adjustments, exceeds this limit.  Notwithstanding such limit or suspension, you are obligated to pay us any amounts owing in excess of such limit.  We may also change your limit at any time.  We will give you advance notice if we impose or change a credit and spending limit.  If we suspend the Services, you must pay down your account to an amount below your limit before we will re-start the Services.  We may charge an administrative fee to re-start the Services.  This credit and spending limit will be imposed, in Bell's discretion, as an alternative to any required security deposit, but we are not obligated to impose it.

• 14. Security deposits.

  Should your credit rating or usage charges warrant, we may require a refundable security deposit from you at any time during the Term. After 6 months of timely and consistent payments of your account in full, your security deposit will be, at our option, either (a) returned to you, or (b) applied to your account, in either case without interest.  Bell may set off against the security deposit, if any, outstanding amounts, fees and charges owed by you to Bell.

• 15. Charges and Payments.

   

  You agree to pay all applicable fees, charges and taxes relating to the Services and the Device(s).  If you are a Prepaid client please see the "Prepaid Services" paragraph below. If you subscribe to a postpaid plan, you will be billed monthly.  On your first bill, your account will be assigned a billing date and there will be charges for Service incurred between your activation date and your billing date.  Your bill is payable upon the date of the bill and if payment is not received and processed by Bell before your next bill date you will be charged interest on the balance owing at the rate of two per cent per month (or 26.82% per year) (or such other rate as Bell notifies you in writing), calculated from the bill date. You must allow adequate time (typically 5 to 7 days) for payment to be received and processed to avoid interest charges.

  Your charges will include your monthly fee for your plan, including any data plan (if you subscribe to a postpaid plan) and all applicable taxes, and your bill will include charges, fees and applicable taxes for other Services at Bell's then current standard rates (except as otherwise specified in your Agreement).  If Bell is required to pay foreign taxes in providing long distance or roaming Services, these will be billed to you. You agree to pay a monthly 911 fee (unless otherwise stated in your Agreement) and a monthly System Access Fee (which fees help recover costs associated with operating and maintaining a wireless network and 911 services, including costs for ongoing maintenance, new equipment installations and technology upgrades.  They are not required by nor collected for the government.) When your Device sends, accesses, browses, streams, downloads or uploads data, content or applications, you must pay additional data transport, roaming and long distance charges.

  Charges may apply to have a Client Care representative complete a transaction or answer your inquiries.  We will notify you in advance of such charges before you incur them.

  Unless otherwise expressed as part of your rate plan, feature or bundle, airtime and long distance usage are rounded up to the nearest minute,  and data usage is rounded up to the nearest kilobyte. Rounding practices for U.S. international voice and data roaming may vary If you use a part of a minute or kilobyte you will be billed and agree to pay for the entire minute or kilobyte. Airtime charges (and long distance charges, if applicable) apply (a) for calls you make, from the time you press "Send" or otherwise initiate the call, until you press "End" or the call is otherwise disconnected; and (b) for calls you receive, from the moment the call connects to our network, including ring time, until you press "End" or the call is otherwise disconnected.

  Bell reserves the right to require immediate payment in full of amounts, whether billed or not, that are inconsistent with your normal usage pattern. 

  Bell will apply any credits due to you against future charges payable by you under this Agreement, if you notify us within 90 days of receipt of your invoice for which a credit is requested.  Failure to notify us within this time period will constitute your acceptance of such charges as billed. If you are entitled to a credit from us, you represent and warrant that you have made no separate claim for a refund for the same amount from a financial institution. To correct any payment made by you through electronic means (such as Internet or telephone banking or ATM machine), you must first request your financial institution to make the correction.  We may charge you an administrative fee for payments rejected for insufficient funds. To obtain certain Services, you may be required to pay by means of pre-authorized debit or credit.

  After the end of any Committed Service Period you continue to be charged fees and charges in accordance with the Service plan and features you had selected and for all other Services provided unless or until (a) you contact us or we contact you to change or terminate your Services or (b) such plan or features are no longer available, in which case Bell may transfer you on 30 days notice to an alternate plan.

• 16. Prepaid Service.

  Prepaid clients are also subject to this Agreement.  It is in effect on a month-to-month basis until your Services are terminated or your Device is deactivated due to inactivity as set out below. You will not receive a monthly bill or any call or usage detail records.  Amounts will be deducted from your prepaid account (i) immediately for usage and pay-per-use Services, and (ii) every month for recurring features and services. If your account remains at $0 for 120 days or such other period as Bell may notify you, your Services and Device will be deactivated and you will lose your number.  If you wish to reactivate, a re-activation fee may apply and you may be assigned a new phone number. Services may be cancelled or suspended by Bell without notice if a negative account balance occurs, or if Services are otherwise not paid for.  Certain prepaid features you subscribe to require a positive balance in your prepaid account to remain active.  If you use an Automatic Top-Up Program to top up your prepaid account, funds may take up to 48 hours to be deposited in your account. The top-up amount will include an amount to clear any negative balance. Value deposited into your prepaid account is available as prepaid credits for your Service and such credits are non-refundable, non-transferable, and will expire after a specified time period.  Using your Device as a modem for a PC or other device ("tethering") is not permitted on a prepaid account.  For more information about Bell Prepaid Service, please visit our website at bell.ca/wirelessprepaid.  Or call 1 888 537-9999 from a landline or #321 from your mobile phone. You must provide us with accurate name, address and contact information at all times for notice purposes.

• 17. Transferring responsibility.

  You may not transfer your account or Services or Agreement to anyone else without our prior consent. You must contact our Client Care department and a transfer service fee may be charged. Bell may transfer all or part of this Agreement including any rights in accounts receivable at any time without prior notice or consent.

• 18. Loss or theft.

  You shall notify us immediately at the telephone numbers set out below if your Device or SIM Card is lost, stolen or destroyed. You are responsible for all fees and charges incurred before you notify us, the cost of replacing the Device, and/or any SAPA and DSAPA that may apply if you choose to cancel your Services.

• 19. Use of Service.

  You are responsible to prudently protect and safeguard your Device (including any SIM card) against loss, abuse, theft or damage, and for the use of your Device and the Services by you and any other persons, except as provided under Section 18 above. You shall not use or allow others to use the Service or your Device if such use:

  • is for, or results in, any illegal, abusive, annoying or offensive activities, including making available offensive content, the commission or encouragement of a criminal offence, stalking, harassment, spamming, disrupting or interfering with the Internet, any network, computers or other devices, transmission of a virus or other harmful component, defamation, intellectual property infringement, or interference with other clients' service;
  • is higher than average or consumes excessive network capacity in Bell's reasonable opinion, or causes our network, or our ability to provide services to others, to be adversely affected;
  • is for multi-media streaming, continuous data transmission or broadcasts, automatic data feeds, automated machine to machine connections or peer-to-peer (P2P) file sharing, voice over Internet protocol or any other application which uses excessive network capacity that is not made available to you by Bell;
  • is to provide a substitute or back-up for private lines or dedicated data connections such as DSL;
  • is to operate an email, web, server farm, news, chat or other service.

  You shall not threaten, abuse or harass any Bell employee or representative.  You shall not (a) commit, attempt to commit, or allow others to commit or attempt to commit, any fraud against Bell including fraudulently obtaining Services or Devices, or (b) transform outbound communications into incoming communications or otherwise attempt to avoid applicable charges, or (c) otherwise abuse the Services or flat rate or unlimited use plans, or allow others to do any of the foregoing. You shall not resell, transfer, distribute, share or exploit for commercial purposes any Service or engage in or allow any alteration, copying, reproduction of or tampering with electronic serial numbers or other identification, signalling or transmission functions or components of your Device.  You must follow all other service regulations issued or adopted by us.  Bell may immediately suspend, restrict, change or terminate all or part of your Services and deactivate your Device without notice, or take other necessary protective measures if Bell has reasonable grounds to believe there is a breach of any of these "Use of Service" provisions.

• 20.  Monitoring.

   

  Bell has the right but not the obligation to access, monitor, investigate and preserve a record of any content transmission or other use of the Services.  You consent to any such activities that are undertaken to satisfy any law or to enhance operating efficiencies, improve service levels, assess client satisfaction, or protect Bell or its clients from use of the Services contrary to Section 19. 

• 21. Indemnity.

   

  You are responsible for and will indemnify us for all damages, losses, expenses and any action, claim or judgment which may be made against us by anyone in connection with the use of your Device or the Service, or your violation of this Agreement.

• 22. Licenses.

  You grant us and our suppliers a world-wide, royalty-free, unrestricted license to use, copy, adapt, transmit, display and perform, distribute and create compilations and derivative works from, any and all user content you elect to post in connection with the Service, solely as required for us to provide you the Service and no other purpose. You acknowledge that we may store your user content on our or our suppliers' facilities for the purposes of you accessing such content, or others that you wish to have access such content, but that if such content is not accessed within a certain period of time (not less than 30 days from the last access unless we tell you otherwise) or if your Services terminate, we may delete such content without notice to you. If you upgrade or replace a Device, content including pictures, contacts, music, screensavers, applications, games and ringtones may not be capable of being transferred to the other Device.

  By enabling or activating any aspect of the Services, including applications, transactions, downloads, games or other content, you agree to abide by any written end-user license, warranty and other terms and conditions that are made available in connection with the use of such aspects of the Services.

• 23. Changes to this Agreement and the Service.

  You agree that this Agreement and any fees, charges or other obligations and any features, options, or other aspects of the Services, may be modified, discontinued or terminated by Bell except as otherwise specified in this Agreement.  We will notify you by providing at least 30 days advance notice of any change that affects you.  Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as obligating you to accept receipt of the Services after any change is made to this Agreement, the Services or otherwise; however, your sole remedy in the event of such a change shall be termination of the Services including the payment of any SAPA or DSAPA that may apply (unless otherwise prohibited by law), upon providing 30 days advance written notice.  Should you continue to receive the Services after such change is effective, you expressly agree that no additional written agreement or express acknowledgement shall be required to accept such change and, unless otherwise prohibited by law, you specifically waive any and all statutory requirements for notice and express acceptance of such changes except for those provided in this paragraph. You agree that you cannot change this Agreement and that no oral or written statement or representation of any sales agent, representative or employee of Bell made to you can change this Agreement.
