Terms and Conditions

Welcome to the teztele.com website (the ‘Site’), which is provided to you by TEZ TELECOM GLOBAL OÜ (TEZTELECOM). Your use of the Site and TEZTELECOM’s services, whether offered directly by TEZTELECOM or through a travel partner, are subject to the following Terms of Use and any operating rules or policies that may be published from time to time by TEZTELECOM. Please read these Terms of Use carefully. By checking the ‘I have read and accept the terms and conditions of the TEZTELECOM Terms of Use’ box during registration for an account or by using the Site or the Services (as defined below) you agree to be bound by these Terms of Use. If you do not agree with or cannot comply with the Terms of Use, please do not use the Site or the Services.

Changes to the Terms of Use

TEZTELECOM may, in its sole discretion, change, add or remove any portion of the Terms of Use at any time by posting new Terms of Use on the Site. Your continued use of the Site or the Services after such changes are posted will constitute your agreement to such changes.

The Services

TEZTELECOM offers a number of products and services on the Site and through partners, such as global phonecards and SIM cards, and toll-free access to send and receive voice messages (collectively, the ‘Services’). Registration and payment may be required to use the Services. Pre-payment using a credit card or PayPal payment is also required for the use of Services. TEZTELECOM may require proof of identity prior to the sale of or use of the Services. Eligibility restrictions, if any, will be noted when registering for each Service. TEZTELECOM will keep a record of all Services provided to you.

Mobile Equipment; SIM Card; Telephone Number

You are responsible for your own end material (such as handsets, plug adaptors and chargers) and its proper configuration and installation, in compliance with any regulations and applicable instructions by TEZTELECOM or the manufacturer. You are also responsible for all preparation to install the Service, such as preparing and inserting SIM cards (interface cards) and setting adequate protocols. You agree to follow all instructions to properly insert the SIM card into your mobile phone. You have no right to be assigned or keep a particular phone number. TEZTELECOM has the right to cancel or change any phone number or other address element it may have assigned to you without compensation, if required for operational or technical reasons or as a result of government regulations or new partnerships, or if they will expire after (one) year of inactivity. TEZTELECOM does not provide mobile phone number or SIM card portability. Any and all rights attached to a phone number assigned by TEZTELECOM to you remain vested in TEZTELECOM. All SIM cards remain the property of TEZTELECOM, which reserves the rights to alter and develop its content as well as claim its return.

GSM Network Coverage

TEZTELECOM offers mobile phone and SIM card users a high degree of coverage via the GSM mobile network. Coverage depends on the network, technical and operational capabilities of the roaming partner. Gaps in coverage may nevertheless be encountered even in areas that are designated as covered, particularly inside buildings or remote areas. Lists of roaming partners are available on the Site. TEZTELECOM will update this information when additional service becomes available. TEZTELECOM will make every effort to provide a high level of availability for its mobile network. However, TEZTELECOM is unable to guarantee continuous, trouble-free operation of its mobile network or certain transmission times or capacities (SMS, for example). TEZTELECOM reserves the right to service its mobile network at any time, which may result in temporary disruptions. No representations or guarantees are made with regard to availability, quality, operation or support for voice or data communication on third-party networks or with third-party lines.

Modifications to the Site or the Services

TEZTELECOM reserves the right, for any reason, in its sole discretion, to terminate, suspend or change any aspect of the Site or the Services including but not limited to products, services, content, features, or hours of availability. TEZTELECOM may impose limits on certain features of the Site or the Services, or restrict your access to part or all of the Site or the Services without notice or penalty.

Charges for the Services

You agree to pay all charges for requested Services in Euros. For Services that require pre-payment, you agree to pre-pay for the Service by debiting your credit card the selected amount or making the PayPal payment. The cost of the Service you use will be debited against the prepaid credit using the then current prices for the Service. In the event your charges exceed your pre-paid credit, you agree to pay any amounts owed to TEZTELECOM within seven (7) days from TEZTELECOM’s request or TEZTELECOM may immediately suspend the Services. You agree to pay for all charges associated with your account, whether or not the use of your PIN was authorized by you. The charges will be deemed to be correct if they accurately reflect the technical records created by a correctly programmed system. You can request an extract of the Service records in writing (by mail or email) from Customer Service within forty-five (45) days after the disputed charge. TEZTELECOM reserves the right to change the prices for the Services at any time. The current applicable prices, which are quoted in Euros, may be found on the Site or by calling Customer Service.

Unlimited Data Packages

Unlimited data volume packages are proposed for usage when a user is located outside of their home country, and should only be used while abroad. Tez Telecom data packages operate at 4G LTE and 3G speeds. We reserve the right to adjust the speed at which individual users access data. Generally, we place no limitations on accounts drawing less than 250 MB per day, but reserve the right to scale access speed down to 2G (128 kbps) speeds once the user’s daily usage exceeds that volume.

Off-Network Usage

Any deliberate off-network usage of the service (an attempt to circumvent the normal operation of the service in order to avoid paying for use) is prohibited. Any off-network usage that is recorded will incur a separate surcharge (on top of standard rates) as follows: Є3 per text message; Є3 per minute to make calls and receive calls; Є3 per MB for data usage. This surcharge may not be billed for up to sixty (60) days after actual usage.

Expiration and Service De-Activation

TEZTELECOM may, in its sole discretion, elect to terminate the Customer’s Account and the Customer’s password after 180 days from the date of the last recharge. All credit expires after 180 days of inactivity. Adding additional credit will reset the expiration date on any unused credit in the Customer’s Account for the next 180 days.

No Insurance Coverage

TEZTELECOM will not be liable for, nor shall any adjustment, refund or credit of any kind be made as a result of any loss, damage, delay, mis-delivery, non-delivery, misinformation or failure to provide information, including, but not limited to, caused by or resulting from: (a) delays caused by Customs’ clearance procedures or those of other regulatory agencies; (b) delays in delivery caused by adherence to shipping company policies regarding the payment of duties and taxes; (c) TEZTELECOM’s inability to provide a copy of the delivery record; (d) TEZTELECOM’s failure to notify you of any delay or loss of your shipment and its contents; (e) shipments released without obtaining a signature if the recipient has provided authorization by signing a release delivery authorization and indemnification agreement; or (f) TEZTELECOM’s shipping company’s failure or inability to attempt to contact the sender or recipient concerning incomplete or inaccurate address; incorrect, incomplete, inaccurate or missing documentation; payment of duties and taxes necessary to release a shipment; or an incomplete or incorrect customs broker’s address. TEZTELECOM will also not be liable for any package where our records do not reflect that you made a purchase from us.

Account and PIN

You agree that all account information provided by you is accurate and up-to-date, and you will promptly notify TEZTELECOM of any changes. You are solely responsible for protecting the confidentiality of your PIN and may not disclose your PIN to any other person. You are also solely responsible for all acts and omissions that occur in connection with your account or PIN, whether or not authorized by you. You agree to notify TEZTELECOM immediately if your PIN is stolen or otherwise passes out of your control so that access using the PIN can be terminated. Until you notify TEZTELECOM of such issues with your PIN, you are responsible for all charges associated with your PIN.
