Do you read the “Terms and Conditions” in your Subscription?

When we subscribe or register to certain services, there are terms and conditions stipulated therein. We should agree and bind by that agreement so that we can proceed to our registration or application. By ticking the button, it is understood that we agreed.
I was applying for a phone plan and after filling the necessary information, at later part—the TERMS AND CONDITIONS. Every time I’m into this thing, I find it very lengthy and it takes time to read. Sometimes, I won’t read the terms at all or read some and skip others and clicked the button to advance the process. This time, I read it in full though.
I do believe that we should read the terms stipulated therein to understand its full context. We’re just lazy to read most of the time or maybe I am just the one.
How about you?

How did you feel after reading the entire "Terms and Conditions". Perhaps the stipulations are homogeous among all Terms and Conditions of subscriptions. I guessed this because I don't read them as well.

@ZedSmart Hahaha I don't know but way back in college I used to read a lot. But now, I've lost interest. It seems all that matters is enjoying life and earning money. Is it just me?

@yoalldudes As we go along, there's some truth maybe in the latter of your comments.

Ha ha. I can't differentiate but most likely they are the same, except maybe for some depending on the services they are providing. It's all about the terms and conditions of use so if it's about communication services, there may be no difference at all. It makes me drowsy.

Not only lengthy but they're too tiny to read too.. So I don't but I have the staff explain them to me.

It's good that you have staff to read in your behalf.

Most of the time I skip this part. I am not lazy to read the terms.

I just hope they will simplify some terms or make it a bit shorter or add some graphics to be more appealing because honestly, they are so boring so some subscriber or applicant simply escape those part.

@ZedSmart Maybe, they do it on purpose to favor their company.

@simplfred Legal terms are sometimes difficult to understand but at the end of the day, business is all that matters so things should be favorable to them.

One of the most things I ignore are reading of terms and conditions
