Common use of Outcollects Clause in Contracts

Outcollects. Outcollects are calls that are placed using a SPRINT UNE port and billed to a VERIZON line or the line of another LEC or local service provider. Examples of an outcollect are collect and credit card calls. When the VERIZON Central Office Switch from which the UNE port is served utilizes a VERIZON operator services platform, VERIZON will provide to SPRINT the unrated message detail that originates from a SPRINT resale service line or UNE port, but which is billed to a telephone number other than the originating number (e.g., calling card, xxxx-to-third number, etc.). As the local service provider, SPRINT will be deemed the earning company and will be responsible for rating the message at SPRINT’s rates and for providing the billing message detail to the billing company for Customer billing. SPRINT will pay to VERIZON charges as agreed to for services purchased, and SPRINT will be compensated by the billing company for the revenue due to SPRINT. When a non-VERIZON entity provides operator services to the VERIZON Central Office Switch from which the resale line or UNE port is provisioned, SPRINT must contract with the operator services provider to obtain any EMI records required by SPRINT.
