Summary by the , the Legislature's nonpartisan drafting office. It's their wording, not ours.
This bill regulates monthly service contracts for mobile telephone service, commonly known as cellular telephone service. The bill defines a monthly service contract as a contract that entitles a person, for a monthly fee, to a limited amount of access to mobile telephone service. Under the bill, a service provider may not enter into a monthly service contract unless the contract provides that the access time that has accrued to the customer continues to be available for the customer's use (or "rolls over") until approximately one year after the month in which the access time accrued, or the expiration of the contract, whichever is sooner.
