  5. Credit Limit
    1. DITO shall set an enterprise-level maximum credit that the Applicant may incur under the Service (the “Credit Limit”). This Credit Limit shall be the basis for the maximum recurring and additional charges for the Service and each Account issued under it. If allowed by the Service, the Applicant may set separate credit limits for each Account issued under the Applicant’s name.
    2. DITO shall have the sole discretion in revising the Applicant’s Credit Limit for the Service. DITO may, from time to time, review or revise the Credit Limit as DITO deems fit. Any changes to the Credit Limit shall be communicated to the Applicant through the usual communication channels or through the Company Admin. If for any reason the Applicant disagrees with the changes to the Credit Limit, the Applicant may inform DITO immediately; otherwise, the Applicant shall be considered to have accepted such change. 
    3. DITO reserves the right to waive, decrease, or increase the Credit Limit if the Applicant is a partner company or one of the top 1,000 companies in the Philippines.
  6. Plan Upgrade/Downgrade
    1. Once the Service is in place, Applicant may request for plan modifications whether for all Accounts under its name or for individual Accounts. Applicant may contact DITO through the usual communication channels or through its DITO Account Manager. DITO shall have sole discretion in approving any such request for upgrade or downgrade.
    2. If the requested plan upgrade/downgrade is approved, the corresponding adjustment in the Service and in the corresponding rates and fees shall take effect on the following billing cycle.
  7. Deposit
    1. DITO may require the Applicant to pay a deposit of such amount as may be determined by DITO as a guarantee for payments for the Service. The deposit shall not bear any interest.
    2. Without prejudice to DITO’s rights to recover amounts due from the Applicant, DITO may, at its sole discretion, offset the deposit against any amount payable by the Applicant in relation to the Service, or forfeit the deposit if the Applicant (or any Assignee) is in breach of this Agreement.
    3.  After deduction is made from all amounts due from Applicant, DITO shall refund the remaining deposit, if any, to Applicant within sixty (60) days from Applicant’s written request. Any unclaimed deposit for period of one (1) year from the termination of this Agreement shall be forfeited in favor of DITO.
  8. Billing
    1. All Electronic Statements of Account (eSOAs) relating to the Service shall be sent to the office e-mail address indicated in the Service Application Form. If the Applicant wishes to request for paper billing, the Applicant may do so by requesting with DITO via the 183 contact center hotline or contacting its DITO Account Manager.
    2. If the Account requires a “Mother” billing where all lines will be paid and managed solely by one corporate account, this shall reflect in the eSOA.
    3. eSOAs may be viewed, downloaded, or saved using a phone, tablet, or computer (PC / laptop). Should there be any changes on the Applicant’s office e-mail address, Applicant is expected to promptly notify DITO by calling the 183 DITO hotline or contacting its DITO Account Manager.
    4. As soon as an eSOA is available, DITO shall send a notification to the DITO App or via SMS to the concerned Account’s mobile number or to the Applicant’s e-mail address indicated in the Service Application Form. For security purposes, all eSOAs will be password protected. The instructions on how to input the password shall be included in the notification sent by DITO to the Applicant or to the concerned Acount mobile number. A one-time PIN (OTP) shall be sent via SMS or via e-mail. After entering the OTP, the Applicant (or its Company Admin) will be able to view, download, or save the eSOA.
    5. For billing-related inquiries or complaints, the Applicant or the concerned Assignee (if any) may contact DITO via the 183 DITO hotline, DITO Experience Stores, or the DITO Account Manager within thirty (30) days from receipt of the relevant eSOA. Failure to file an inquiry or complaint within this period shall mean that the Applicant or Assignee accepts the accuracy and correctness of the eSOA, making it final and conclusive. DITO shall respond to billing queries or resolve billing complaints within a reasonable time. Please understand that in responding to queries and in resolving complaints, DITO will rely on its records about the Applicant and the Service.
  9. Payment
    1. The Applicant is expected to settle the entire amounts indicated on each undisputed eSOA on or before the due date specified. The Applicant’s failure or refusal to pay, in whole or in part, any outstanding charges by due date shall entitle DITO to exercise the right to suspend or terminate the Service, at DITO’s discretion.
    2. The Applicant may settle amounts due on the Service through any DITO accredited payment channels or through any DITO Experience Stores. DITO is not bound to honor payments made to persons or entities or at places not authorized by DITO. If the Applicant opts to settle amounts due on the Service via direct debit from an identified account, by credit card, or by check, and the payment is not fulfilled or honored for any reason not attributable to DITO, DITO may charge the Applicant a penalty fee or a late payment fee, as may be applicable.
      1. The Applicant’s payments shall be applied as follows: late payment fee, billings in arrears, if any, and current billing.
      2. In case of overpayment, the excess amount shall be used to offset any outstanding charges, fees, costs, or any other sum due from the Applicant. If the Service has been terminated in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Applicant must notify DITO of the overpayment and the refund for such overpayment shall be processed in accordance with DITO policies.
      3. Any deficiency in the payment made by the Applicant, whether in full or in part, shall not affect the right of DITO to impose and collect penalties or pursue legal remedies as a result of the Applicant’s late payment, incomplete payment, or non-payment of the Applicant’s bill/s. In the event the Applicant continues to fail to pay any outstanding bill, DITO may engage the services of a collection agency or institute legal proceedings against the Applicant to recover the money owed to DITO, and DITO may seek to collect recovery fee or other reasonable costs and legal fees.
  10. Termination or Disconnection of the Service
    1. Customers will receive SMS notification if their plan is almost consumed, and another SMS notification if the data has been fully consumed.
    2. If an Account remains unpaid after 60 days from the due date of any outstanding bill, the Service shall be automatically suspended until settlement of all arrears and fees, if any. In case of arrearage of 363 days or more, the entire enterprise account for the Service will be terminated. The Service may be reinstated after full settlement of all arrears and fees or penalties, if any.
    3. Without prejudice to the Subscription Terms and Conditions, DITO may suspend or terminate this Agreement (as may be applicable) for any of the following reasons:
      1. (a) the Applicant refuses or fails to perform any of its obligations under this Agreement.
      2. (b) the Applicant refuses or fails to promptly pay any of the amounts due under this Agreement. If the Applicant is subscribed to other DITO services, DITO shall have the right to terminate any or all of those subscriptions even if those are in good standing. 
      3. (c) the Applicant is proven to have provided incorrect, false, or incomplete information in the Service Application Form or at any time during the application process.
      4. (d) the Applicant or any account under the Service repeatedly exceeds the Credit Limit set by DITO.
    4. After the lapse of the Contract Period, DITO shall continue providing the Service until the Applicant otherwise terminates this Agreement by giving DITO at least thirty (30) days’ written notice prior to the intended date of termination, and upon payment of all outstanding charges, fees, or penalties.
    5. During the Contract Period, the Applicant may pre-terminate this Agreement by giving DITO at least thirty (30) days’ written notice. The termination shall become effective only upon settlement of all outstanding charges, fees, or penalties, including the payment of a pre-termination fee equivalent to the monthly service fee (MSF) multiplied by the number of remaining months under this Agreement. 
    6. Depending on the circumstances, the Service may be extended upon subscription reconnection after having been previously temporary disconnected, based on the number of days the Service was temporarily disconnected.
    7. The quality of the Service may also be affected by the download speed, especially when the monthly data allocation of an Account is fully consumed for the relevant period (i.e., days covered by a given billing cycle). In such case, to prevent from exceeding the Credit Limit, the Service shall continue but at a speed lower than the committed speed until the Service is fully restored at the start of the next billing cycle. Any supplemental or booster promo, when subscribed to in the meantime, can bring the service level back to the committed speed. Each supplemental or booster promo is governed by separate terms and conditions.
  11. Bundled Devices or Equipment
    1. If applicable, images of devices or equipment that are bundled with any Account or offered for sale with the Service (the “Bundled Device or Equipment”) are for illustrative and reference purposes only.

      1. Applicant shall keep any Bundled Device or Equipment in good condition and shall use such Bundled Device or Equipment only for its intended purpose.
      2. Damage to or loss of any Bundled Device or Equipment due to Applicant’s (or Assignee’s) fault or negligence shall not excuse the Applicant from paying the Monthly Service Fee (MSF) and other charges associated with the Service.

In case of theft or loss of any Bundled Device or Equipment, Applicant shall notify DITO via the Customer Service Hotline, help ticket via the DITO app or e-mail, through the DITO Experience Store, or through the DITO Account Manager. DITO, in its sole discretion, may temporarily disconnect or suspend the Service for a period of up to thirty (30) days upon the request of Applicant. Applicant shall pay for all outstanding usage charges prior to the time the loss is reported. The Contract Period shall be extended to a period equal to the period of temporary disconnection or suspension.
