How does Mobile Payment Plan work?
Under Mobile Payment Plan, you can buy a Mobile Device from us and pay us the purchase price of your Mobile Device minus any Upfront Customer Payment and/or Other Credits (MPP Total Amount) in equal monthly payments (MPP Monthly Payment) over the term of Your Agreement. Your MPP Monthly Payment is equal to your MPP Total Amount divided by the number of months selected by you as the term of Your Agreement.
You own your Mobile Device at all times.
Are you eligible for Mobile Payment Plan?
You can buy a Mobile Device under Mobile Payment Plan if you are an Eligible MPP Customer and you have been approved by us for Mobile Payment Plan. We will determine the maximum MPP Total Amount that is available to you. If the price of your selected Mobile Device is more than this amount you may make an Upfront Customer Payment equal to this difference.
What are the payments and how do I pay?
Your MPP Monthly Payment is payable monthly and is payable by the same Payment Type selected by you for your Services. You should refer to your Services Agreement for further details. You must pay your MPP Monthly Payments regardless of your Mobile Device’s condition. This includes if the Mobile Device is defective, no longer works, or is lost or stolen.
What are our rights?
If you do not make a MPP Monthly Payment by the due date notified by us, we may do any or all of the following:
You must continue to use your Services during Your Agreement.
If you become an Ineligible MPP Customer or an Inactive Customer or if you Disconnect your Service or transfer your Service Number to another service provider or transfer ownership of the Service we may do any or all of the following:
Under Your Agreement we exclude and limit our liability to you. Despite these exclusions and limitations, we will be liable to you under the Trade Practices Act and other legislation for liability which we cannot exclude but our liability to you will be limited, at our choice, to the repair or replacement of goods or the resupply or paying for the resupply of services.
Can you pay out early?
You can terminate Your Agreement at any time by paying out the remainder of the MPP Total Amount that you owe us under Your Agreement at that time. Your Agreement will terminate when we receive payment for this amount in full. You can arrange to do this by contacting us.
