# What should you check when an internet term ends?

> Establish whether service is continuing, automatically extended or covered by a newly agreed commitment.

The date printed on an old agreement is a starting point for the review, not a complete account of later changes.

## Which end date should be confirmed?

Confirm the current commitment and discount dates for each product.

A later renewal or product change may have its own record. Ask for the document that establishes the current end date rather than relying on a reminder alone.

## How does automatic extension differ from a new agreement?

A new commitment needs its own agreement record; automatic extension is a separate situation.

The checked consumer criteria list cancellation without a penalty during an automatically extended period. Ask the provider to identify the applicable status and provision; a newly accepted term requires separate review.

## How should a renewal offer be compared?

Use the new full-period cost and all conditions, alongside continuing without that offer.

Request the continuing monthly charge, rental treatment and any new benefit conditions. Save the date and duration of the renewed discount.

## What remains to be settled if service ends?

Confirm cancellation, final usage charges and the return of rented equipment.

Wiseuser distinguishes waived rental charges from ownership of the equipment. Keep the agreed return arrangement and the final statement even when a commitment has expired.
