Affordable Connectivity Program Terms & Conditions

Effective Date: September 21, 2022

Please read these Rogue Mobile (“Rogue”) Affordable Connectivity Program (“ACP”) Terms and Conditions of Service (“Agreement”) carefully. This Agreement is legally binding between you and Rogue Mobile and becomes effective when you enroll in Rogue Mobile’s ACP service, use the Rogue Mobile ACP service, or make a change to your account. These terms and conditions contain important information about your legal rights and require that certain disputes be resolved through Arbitration instead of a court trial. Rogue Mobile reserves the right to change or modify this Agreement at any time and at its sole discretion. Any changes or modifications to this Agreement will be binding upon you, once posted on the Rogue Mobile website at www.RogueMobile.com. You should check the Rogue Mobile website regularly for updates to this Agreement.

The Service Agreement: The service agreement consists of this Agreement and the Rogue Mobile General Terms and Conditions of Service. To the extent there are conflicts, the order of precedence is as follows: (1) this Agreement, (2) the General Terms and Conditions of Service.

Nature of Service: The ACP is a Federal Communications Commission (“FCC”) benefit program designed to help make broadband more affordable for eligible low-income households. The ACP will provide a discount of up to $30 per month towards broadband service or up to $75 per month for households on Tribal lands, as defined by FCC rules. Eligible households can also receive a one-time discount of up to $100 to purchase a laptop, desktop computer, or tablet from participating providers if they contribute more than $10 and less than $50 toward the purchase price. The ACP is limited to one monthly service discount and one device discount per household. ACP benefits may be obtained from any participating provider and the monthly service benefit may be transferred to another provider subject to certain regulatory restrictions. The ACP benefit is subject to consumer eligibility, provider participation, product availability, and approval by the FCC and its ACP administrator, the Universal Service Administrative Company (“USAC”). This ACP discount benefit is provided each month the customer maintains ACP services and eligibility.

By applying or subscribing to Rogue Mobile services supported by the ACP, you authorize Rogue Mobile and its contracted partners, for the purpose of applying for, determining eligibility, enrolling in and seeking reimbursement of ACP service and device benefits, to collect, use, share and retain your personal information, including, but not limited to, information required for the purpose of establishing eligibility for and enrolling in the program, full name, full residential address, date of birth, last four digits of social security number, telephone number, eligibility criteria and status, the date on which the ACP service discount was initiated and (if applicable) terminated, ACP connected device distribution date/type/make and model/status, usage status and other compliance requirements, the amount of support being sought for the service and/or device, and information necessary to establish identity and verifiable address. The information collected may be shared with USAC to ensure proper administration of the ACP service and/or connected device benefits. Failure to provide this FCC mandated consent will result in your being denied the ACP service and/or the connected device benefits. You also authorize Rogue Mobile and its contracted partners to contact you to validate your eligibility for or desire to participate in Rogue Mobile’s ACP offers. For more information see our General Terms and Conditions and our Privacy Policy at www.RogueMobile.com.

Eligibility: To qualify for enrollment in the ACP, a person applying for ACP service, or “applicant,” must meet specific eligibility requirements and have a service address in a location where Rogue Mobile is authorized to offer ACP service as an approved Broadband Service Provider.

A household is eligible if one member of the household meets at least one of the criteria below:

  •   Has an income that is at or below 200% of the Federal Poverty Guidelines for a household of that size;
  •   Receives benefits from certain federal assistance programs: Medicaid, Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), Supplemental Security Income, Federal Public Housing Assistance, Veterans and Survivors Pension Benefit, or Special Supplemental Nutritional Program for Woman, Infants and Children (WIC) Program;
  •   Is approved to receive benefits under the free and reduced-price school lunch program or the school breakfast program;
  •   Received a Federal Pell Grant during the current award year; or
  •   Meets the eligibility criteria for a participating providers’ qualifying low-income.

Households on Tribal lands are additionally eligible to receive an ACP discount if a member of the household meets one of the criteria below:

  •   Receives Bureau of Indian Affairs General Assistance;
  •   Participates in Head Start (only households meeting the income qualifying standard);
  •   Receives Tribal Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (Tribal TANF); or
  •   Participates in the Food Distribution Program on Indian Reservations.

Your eligibility to participate in the ACP will be determined by the National Verifier, which is administered by USAC.

Application Process: Rogue Mobile subscribers who participate in the Lifeline program may OPT-IN to the ACP which is a separate program. New applicants must complete an ACP application and certification form and may need to provide supporting documentation verifying they meet the eligibility requirements to participate in the ACP.

New ACP customers who are enrolled in Rogue Mobile ACP services will receive one (1) SIM Card enabling the user to access the Rogue Mobile network with a compatible GSM device. Existing Lifeline customers who opt-in to enroll in Rogue Mobile ACP services may be able to use their current SIM card. ACP Participants may also qualify for a one-time discount of up to $100 on a connected device. If the participant has not yet received their one-time discount, they may receive one (1) broadband enabled Connected Device provided by Rogue Mobile in accordance with its Device Policy and the ACP guidelines.

One ACP Discount Per Economic Unit Rule: ACP support is limited to one economic unit per household and consists of broadband service. An economic unit is defined, for purposes of the ACP, as any individual or group of individuals who live together at the same address and share income and expenses. An economic unit is not permitted to receive ACP benefits from multiple providers. Violation of the one benefit per economic unit rule constitutes a violation of the federal rules and will result in de-enrollment from the ACP and potentially prosecution by the United States government.

You consent to have your personal identification information, including name, telephone number and address shared with USAC and/or its agents to confirm that neither you nor your household receive more than one ACP benefit.

ACP Benefit Transfer Consent. If you or any member of your family unit receives ACP Assistance from any other telephone company or broadband internet provider, you consent to have your benefit transferred to Rogue Mobile when you apply for and enroll in ACP services with Rogue Mobile. The effect of an ACP benefit transfer is that your ACP benefit will be applied to SafetyNet Wireless’s ACP service and will no longer be applied to service retained from your former ACP service provider. You may be subject to your former ACP provider’s undiscounted rates as a result of the transfer if you elect to maintain service from that provider. ACP rules limit you to one ACP benefit transfer transaction per service month, with limited exceptions for situations where a subscriber seeks to reverse an unauthorized benefit transfer or is unable to receive service from a specific provider.

ACP and Lifeline: Customers may have one ACP and one Lifeline benefit per household. These discount benefits may be combined and applied to the same service or they may be applied to two separate services. The ACP benefit is separate from the Lifeline benefit. You are not required to opt-in to the ACP, and you can continue to receive your Lifeline service without enrolling in the ACP. You may choose to take ACP benefits from a service provider other than your existing Lifeline provider.

Emergency Broadband Benefit Subscribers: The FCC phased out the EBB and replaced it with the ACP on December 31, 2021.

ACP Benefit Availability: The ACP benefit is subject to funding availability from the FCC. Should the FCC announce that funding is no longer available, Rogue Mobile will attempt to provide you with a 30-day notice that it will discontinue its ACP-supported service. At the conclusion of the ACP, customers may choose to pay the applicable undiscounted rate plus applicable fees and taxes for one of our service plans available at that time. Rogue Mobile will not opt the customer into AutoPay without the customer’s permission, and the customer must have a credit card on file to enter the AutoPay program.

Consent to Disclosure of Information: By completing the Rogue Mobile ACP application, you consent to the release of your information (including financial information) to our designated agent for the administration of your service with Rogue Mobile. This consent survives the termination of this Agreement. You further authorize Rogue Mobile to discuss with or access information from state or federal agency representatives concerning your eligibility for and participation in the ACP. Rogue Mobile reserves the right to review your eligibility status at any time and require you to provide Rogue Mobile with written documentation of either your household’s income or your participation in a qualifying federal program or state program.

National Verifier and National Lifeline Accountability Database (NLAD): Applicants who apply for ACP benefits will be submitted to the NLAD database to complete enrollment. Applicant’s name, address, date of birth, and social security number will be submitted to the National Verifier and NLAD during the application process. Applicant’s address and identity will be verified. Applicants will be screened to determine if they are already receiving an ACP benefit through another provider.

Activation of Service: Upon enrollment in the Rogue Mobile’s ACP services, if you are a new applicant, you will receive a Rogue Mobile SIM card, delivered to your home address noted in the application, or if you applied in person, the SIM card will be given to you at some point during or after the enrollment and approval process (timing of SIM card distribution in relation to the approval process varies by state). Insert the Rogue Mobile provided SIM card into your compatible device and power on the device. Using data or confirming that you want to activate your service will activate the Rogue Mobile ACP service.

Account Activity Requirement: You must use data, purchase data, or respond to direct contact from Rogue Mobile at least once during any 30-day period to continue receiving your benefit.

Maintaining Eligibility and Service: You will receive ACP service from Rogue Mobile if you continually meet the ACP eligibility requirements and the program remains active. If Rogue Mobile believes you are not eligible for ACP service, we will notify you that your ACP service will be canceled. You will have 30 days to respond to the termination notice. If you do not demonstrate continued eligibility, service will be canceled, you will lose any remaining services and will no longer receive service. If you no longer qualify for the ACP discount, you must notify Rogue Mobile within thirty (30) days of this fact to be removed from the program.

ACP Is Non-Transferrable: Eligibility for the ACP benefit is personal to you and your household. You may not transfer, to any third party, any of your rights or benefits received under the Rogue Mobile ACP service, including but not limited to, any voice minutes or broadband data received under Rogue Mobile service funded by the ACP.

Monthly Service Period: The period in which usage of your service is authorized lasting for a period of up to thirty (30) days beginning on (i) the date your Rogue Mobile account became active; (ii) the date you placed or received the initial service transaction on your Rogue Mobile account; (iii) the receipt of the allotment of Rogue Mobile rate plan data; (iv) the purchase or addition of Rogue Mobile data, or (v) the date you were determined to be eligible for the Rogue Mobile plan, whichever can be conclusively determined by Rogue Mobile at its sole discretion, and concluding thirty (30) days later. Rogue Mobile data will be added to your account on the first day of each Service Period, also known as your Anniversary Date, in accordance with your rate plan as long as the subscriber maintains eligibility for ACP service.

Monthly Service End Date: The last day of your Rogue Mobile Monthly Service Period, occurs up to thirty (30) days from your Anniversary Date. Service End Date can be calculated from (i) the date your Rogue Mobile account became active; (ii) the date you placed or received the initial service transaction on your Rogue Mobile account; (iii) the receipt of the monthly allotment of Rogue Mobile data; (iv) the purchase or addition of Rogue Mobile data, or (v) the date you were determined to be eligible for a Rogue Mobile ACP plan, (vi) the date your ACP benefit was removed by you or that de-enrollment based on ACP rules occurred, whichever can be conclusively determined by Rogue Mobile at its sole discretion.

Rates, Usage, and Included Allotments: While you are enrolled in Rogue Mobile’s ACP- supported services, you will receive an allotment of data provided by Rogue Mobile each month as long as you remain eligible for the ACP. Use of allotments can include, but is not limited to, the use of any data.
