3. CANCELLATION RIGHTS AND PROCEDURES
Back to Top3.1 Right to Cancel at Any Time
In compliance with the FTC's amended Negative Option Rule, you have the unconditional right to cancel your Nomad Internet subscription at any time, for any reason, without penalty. Nomad Internet will never impose early termination fees, cancellation fees, or any other financial penalty for exercising your right to cancel.
3.2 Click-to-Cancel Compliance
Consistent with the FTC's "Click-to-Cancel" mandate, Nomad Internet guarantees that the process of canceling your service will be no more difficult than the process of signing up. We will never require you to navigate through unnecessary steps, speak with a retention specialist, or provide a reason for canceling in order to complete your cancellation.
3.3 Available Cancellation Methods
You may cancel your subscription through any of the following channels:
| Method | How to Use | Available Hours |
|---|---|---|
| Online Self-Service Portal | Visit your customer portal at NomadOS.com or visit Nomadcancel.com to process your cancellation. No representative interaction required. | Accepted within 1 business day |
| Email / Ticket | Send a cancellation request to support@nomadinternet.com from the email on file or submit a support ticket. Include your account number or the name and address on the account. | Processed within 2-3 business days |
| Phone | Call us at 281-800-1000. No fees are charged for phone cancellations. If you reach voicemail, leave a message and we will process your cancellation and call you back. | Monday–Friday, 9:00 AM–6:00 PM CST |
Note: Cancellations will not be processed through live chat.
3.4 Confirmation of Cancellation
Upon receipt of your cancellation request, Nomad Internet will send a written confirmation to the email address on file. The timeframe for receiving this confirmation depends on the method used:
- Online Portal or Nomadcancel.com: Within 1 business day.
- Email or Support Ticket: Within 2-3 business days.
This confirmation will include:
- The date your cancellation was received.
- The effective termination date of your service (typically the end of the current billing cycle).
- Instructions for returning your rented equipment and the prepaid shipping label.
If you do not receive a confirmation email within the timeframe specified for your cancellation method, please contact us immediately, as your cancellation may not have been processed.
3.5 Effective Date of Cancellation and Continued Billing
Please note: You will continue to be charged for your subscription until your rented modem is returned to us. Once the modem is received and processed by our warehouse, billing will cease. Nomad Internet will not issue a pro-rated refund for the unused portion of the current billing cycle, except in cases where a service outage or billing error has occurred (see Sections 5 and 6).
4. EQUIPMENT RETURN POLICY
Back to Top4.1 Return Obligation
Because all Nomad Internet modems and associated hardware are provided on a rental basis, you are required to return all equipment upon cancellation of your service. Customers will be charged for their subscription until their modem is returned. Failure to return equipment in a timely manner will result in continued monthly billing and/or equipment replacement charges.
4.2 Return Window
You have 14 calendar days from the date your cancellation is confirmed (not the date you submitted the request) to return all equipment. The return window begins on the date the cancellation confirmation email is sent to you.
4.3 Prepaid Return Shipping
Nomad Internet will provide a prepaid return shipping label at no cost to you. This label will be sent digitally to your account email address. By request, we can also send physical labels and return kits. You are not required to pay any return shipping costs.
4.4 Return Procedure
To complete your equipment return:
- Locate the prepaid USPS shipping label sent to your account email address. (Note: The label may arrive in a separate email from your cancellation confirmation. Please check your SPAM or junk folder if you cannot locate it.)
- Pack the modem, power adapter, antennas, and all other accessories securely. Use the original packaging if available, or a sturdy box with adequate cushioning. Do not use a USPS Flat Rate box. Our prepaid labels are for USPS Ground shipping; if you use a Flat Rate box, USPS may return the package to you.
- Affix the prepaid label to the outside of the box.
- Drop off the package at any authorized USPS location before the 14-day return window expires.
- Retain your drop-off receipt as proof of return.
4.5 Equipment Condition Standards
Equipment must be returned in good working condition. The following standards apply:
| Condition | Treatment |
|---|---|
| Good working condition, normal wear and tear | Full refund processed upon receipt (if applicable) |
| Minor cosmetic damage (scratches, scuffs) | Full refund processed upon receipt (if applicable) |
| Significant physical damage (cracked housing, broken ports) | Repair fee deducted from refund; customer notified before deduction |
| Missing components (power cord, antennas, etc.) | Replacement cost deducted from refund; customer notified before deduction |
| Equipment not returned within 14-day window | Unreturned equipment fee charged; amount equals retail replacement value |
Nomad Internet will notify you in writing before deducting any fees from your refund or charging your payment method for equipment damage or non-return.
5. BILLING TRANSPARENCY AND DISPUTE RIGHTS
Back to TopNomad Internet adheres to the FCC's Truth-in-Billing rules, which require that all charges on your bill be accompanied by a clear, non-misleading, plain-language description of the service rendered. Every invoice you receive from Nomad Internet will:
- Provide a brief, clear, and non-misleading description of each charge.
- Clearly identify Nomad Internet as the service provider associated with each charge.
- Separate any third-party charges from Nomad Internet's own charges.
- Identify those charges for which non-payment will not result in service disconnection.
- Provide a contact number (281-800-1000) for billing inquiries and disputes.
If you believe any charge on your bill is incorrect, unauthorized, or unclear, you have the right to dispute it. To initiate a billing dispute, contact our customer support team via any of the methods listed in Section 11. We will acknowledge your dispute within two (2) business days and provide a written resolution within 30 days.
6. PRO-RATED CREDITS AND SERVICE OUTAGE REFUNDS
Back to Top6.1 Service Outage Credits
Nomad Internet recognizes that reliable internet access is critical to our customers, particularly those in rural areas with limited alternatives. If you experience a documented, continuous service outage lasting 24 hours or more due to a network issue attributable to Nomad Internet or its underlying carrier partners, you are entitled to a pro-rated credit for the period of confirmed service unavailability.
To request an outage credit:
- Contact customer support to report the outage and receive a trouble ticket number.
- Allow our technical team up to 72 hours to investigate and confirm the outage on our end.
- If confirmed, you must reach out to customer support to request the credit.
Credits are not automatic. Once requested and approved, a pro-rated credit will be applied to your next billing cycle.
Credits for outages caused by factors outside Nomad Internet's control (e.g., natural disasters, customer-side equipment failure, or third-party network issues beyond our carrier agreements) are issued at Nomad Internet's discretion.
6.2 Billing Errors
If Nomad Internet charges you an incorrect amount due to a billing system error, we will issue a full refund of the overcharged amount within 30 days of the error being identified or reported, whichever is earlier.
7. UNAUTHORIZED CHARGES AND CRAMMING PREVENTION
Back to TopNomad Internet strictly prohibits the placement of unauthorized third-party charges on your account. Consistent with the Federal Trade Commission's (FTC) prohibition on unfair or deceptive acts or practices under Section 5 of the FTC Act, we do not permit third parties to add charges to your Nomad Internet bill without your express, documented consent.
If you identify a charge on your invoice that you did not authorize:
- Contact customer support immediately via phone, email, or live chat.
- Provide the charge description, amount, and billing date.
- Nomad Internet will investigate the charge within 10 business days.
- If the charge is confirmed to be unauthorized, a full refund will be issued within 30 days of the confirmation.
8. REFUND PROCESSING TIMELINE AND METHODS
Back to TopAll refunds will be processed according to the following timeline:
| Refund Type | Processing Time (After Trigger Event) | Method |
|---|---|---|
| 14-Day Money-Back Guarantee | 5–7 business days after equipment receipt and inspection | Original payment method |
| Billing Error Refund | 30 days after error confirmed | Original payment method |
| Unauthorized Charge Refund | 30 days after charge confirmed unauthorized | Original payment method |
| Service Outage Credit | Applied to next billing cycle | Account credit |
| Equipment Damage Deduction | Notified within 5 business days of equipment inspection | Deducted from refund or charged to payment method on file |
All monetary refunds will be returned to the original payment method used at the time of purchase. Nomad Internet cannot issue refunds via alternative payment methods, paper checks, or gift cards. No exceptions can be accommodated.
9. REGULATORY COMPLIANCE AND EXTERNAL COMPLAINT RIGHTS
Back to Top9.1 FTC Compliance
This Policy complies with the FTC's Section 5 prohibition on unfair or deceptive acts or practices and the amended Negative Option Rule. Nomad Internet does not engage in bait-and-switch advertising, undisclosed fee practices, or coercive cancellation barriers.
9.2 Your Right to File External Complaints
If Nomad Internet is unable to resolve your dispute to your satisfaction through the internal process described in this Policy, you have the right to escalate your complaint to the following external regulatory body:
| Agency | Jurisdiction | Contact |
|---|---|---|
| Federal Trade Commission (FTC) | Deceptive marketing, subscription cancellation | reportfraud.ftc.gov |
We are committed to responding to all regulatory inquiries promptly and cooperatively.
10. POLICY AMENDMENTS AND NOTIFICATION
Back to TopNomad Internet reserves the right to amend this Policy at any time, subject to the following consumer protection requirements:
- Advance Notice: Any material change to this Policy that reduces consumer rights or adds new fees will be communicated to all active subscribers via email at least 30 days before the change takes effect.
