changes that include moving from one Freedom Plan to another, from one Verizon Long
Distance Plan to another, from 768K to 3.0 Mbps High Speed Internet or from 5/2
Mbps to 15/2 Mbps FiOS do not constitute a new sale.
Verizon reserves the right to change the Terms and Conditions at any time. IMPORTANT:
It is your responsibility to check the Bulletin section of this
Web Site
for notices on changes to the program.
Once enrolled, you will be assigned a unique Tracking Code. Your code enables Verizon
to track referrals that result in a sale. Verizon will issue a predetermined donation
amount (as described above) to your organization for each Verizon customer who calls
888-695-5299 and provides your Tracking Code when ordering ad described above in
accordance with the terms of the Verizon Velocity Program.
Customers must order new Verizon services by calling 888-695-5299 and providing
a valid Organization Tracking Code for their purchase to be eligible for donations.
Orders placed through any other Verizon telephone number and orders placed without
the Tracking Code will not be eligible for donations. Exceptions may be made for
orders placed with an Authorized Verizon Door-to-Door Agent and orders placed at
a Verizon Plus Store Location. In these cases, customers must follow directions
provided by the Door-to-Door or store representative to call 888-695-5299 and provide
the Verizon representative with their order number, Organization's Tracking Code
and new products purchased.
We shall commence processing a given payment only after we verify that the sale
has been in Verizon billing for at least 30 days.

Program and you may hold yourself out as a participant until such time as your participation
is terminated. Each party grants the other permission to use trademarks, service

the Verizon Velocity Program and in a manner that is not damaging to the name or
reputation of the Marks' owner Marks may only be used if they are exact copies of
the Marks as used by the owner of the Mark or if written approval is obtained from
the owner of the Mark for the particular use.

not actually received by Verizon.

of the order date upon terms and conditions acceptable solely to us and the referral
customer must retain the service for the agreed term period.
Customers providing your Tracking Code may be ineligible for certain other promotional
offers and discounts.
In the event a referral customer is disputed among one or more participants in the
Program, Verizon alone shall determine which participating organization, if any,
is entitled to a contribution with respect to such referral customer.
