In the event of termination, the Customer needs to give Telesphere Solutions / Cloud2Talk ninety (90) days prior written notice, by certified mail return receipt requested, FedEx or similar nationally recognized overnight delivery service. Cloud2Talk will not reimburse Customer for any fees paid prior to the termination date.  CUSTOMER MAY CANCEL SERVICES ONLY THROUGH THIS METHOD. TELESPHERE SOLUTIONS/ CLOUD2TALK WILL NOT ACCEPT CANCELLATION VIA EMAIL, FAX, SMS OR OTHER ELECTRONIC METHODS. FAILURE TO CANCEL SERVICES IN ACCORDANCE WITH THIS SECTION WILL RESULT IN ONGOING SERVICE CHARGES, FEES AND TAXES. 

Once the written cancellation has been received by Cloud2Talk, all services will be suspended, it is the Customer’s solely responsibility to port any number from Cloud2Talk; we are not responsible for any loss of numbers, downtime after the cancellation date.

 

A termination notice does not relief Customer of paying customer service duties till the end of the agreement term, therefore customer must continue paying the services to Cloud2Talk until the end of customer’s agreement term.

 

Cloud2Talk will apply Original Deposit Month Amount against any pending bill during the term of service or the last month of service according to the case. In Case of a Bill Increase Difference part of the original deposit fee may be used to cover. Customer agrees that any Remaining Balance refers to any services provided by Telesphere Solutions/Cloud2Talk based on the latest invoiced amount, due to an increase or modification of services.
