    Effective October 1, 2009 - Important Information Regarding Changes to Your Verizon Online Terms Of Service


    The following is an outline of important changes to the Verizon Online Terms of Service, which are effective as of October 1, 2009. We have described these changes in general terms below and recommend that you review the complete Terms of Service to determine how these changes, and other routine changes being made simultaneously, apply to you or your use of the Service. The Terms of Service can be accessed by clicking on the "Policies and Terms of Service" link (www2.verizon.net/policies) at the bottom of any page of our Website. The Terms of Service, as revised, will govern your rights and obligations, and ours, with respect to your use of the Services we offer. As set forth in Paragraph 3 of the Terms of Service, your continued use of the Service after the effective date of these changes will constitute your agreement to the changes.
    1. Newsgroup Service Discontinued. We previously announced that we would be discontinuing our newsgroup service on September 30th. The service has now been discontinued and those portions of the Terms of Service regarding the newsgroup service have been removed.
    2. Usage-Based Dial-up Plans Eliminated. We recently ceased offering usage-based dial up Internet access plans. All dial up plans now feature unlimited monthly access. Section 4.4 has been modified to reflect the elimination of the usage-based plans.
    3. Credit Related Matters. We have added a new Section 8.10 making clear that we may evaluate your credit history before modifying or providing you Service and that if you fail to pay your bill, we may submit a negative credit report to a credit reporting agency.
    Please take time to review the complete Verizon Online Terms of Service. Thank you for being a Verizon Online customer.
