Reasonable Use Policy


netTALK has created this reasonable usage policy (“Policy”) to guide their clients understand the intended uses and permitted manner of our service, and to prevent exploitation, fraud and abuse of unlimited calling plans and features. This policy is based on the relevant provisions in the Terms of Service and is applicable to all our services.

Our Terms of Service are in www.nettalk.com/terms-of-service of our residential services.


The normal reasonable use

netTALK residential unlimited service plans and features are a prepaid service only for normal residential or personal, noncommercial use, and are limited to 1,500 minutes of use (MOU) monthly. Calling is excess of 1,500 MOU will require an additional prepaid charge. This means that only the account holder, the residential family members, and extensions netTALK™ registered by the account holder can use netTALK residential unlimited service plans. Residential family members include your immediate family residing in your personal residence – for example, spouse, domestic partner, parents and / or children. If your residential service plan allows you to expand the service or feature (s) to a residential or mobile number, any use of that service plan is added and must comply to normal residential or personal, noncommercial use.

Based on this combination, may determine that netTALK abnormal use, unreasonable or impermissible is happening and can take appropriate steps described below to enforce this policy and the Terms of Service (the “Rights of netTALK”).

Because we offer ultra low international calling plans we must aggressively ensure that our use plans are not abused (abuse hurts everyone). Therefore our international plans which are solely geared for residential use are subject to netTALK’s sole evaluation of use consistent with our residential service offering. netTALK may use any of a number of combined indicators when determining non-residential like usage. These include but are not limited to: excessive minute usage, excessive numbers called, excessive call time, excessive countries called, traffic pumping numbers called. netTALK will always strive to bring the best service at the lowest cost to its residential customers. People who need an international business telephone service would be best served on netTALK’s per minute international plan, which is among the lowest priced, highest quality in the industry.
