Fact-Check Policy

Eligibility pathways, benefit amounts, application rules, one-per-household requirements and National Verifier guidance should be checked against current USAC or FCC materials before publication.

Device price, model, condition, stock, service price, activation fees, shipping and delivery estimates are provider-level facts. If current provider evidence is not available, we describe the term as variable instead of publishing a fixed number.

iPhone specifications such as chip, display, storage, camera and connector should be checked against Apple technical specifications or Apple Support documentation.

When sources disagree, the page should identify the controlling source and avoid presenting uncertain or outdated secondary reporting as settled fact. A provider marketing page does not override current federal eligibility rules.

Unverified star ratings, review counts, stock percentages, approval averages and shipping averages should not be published as facts. Any future first-party dataset should explain its sample, date range and collection method.
