To do that, we've set up the following terms and conditions to ensure that you receive the services you have ordered and that you also know how to end the relationship should you choose.
The following terms are the specific schedule relating to this service. Our general working terms and conditions are available to view here.
Hardware not paid for up front is paid for over a 3 year period by instalments.
Title in the Hardware shall remain with us until receipt by us of your final payment.
Risk in the Hardware passes to you on delivery and you agree that you will insure the Hardware for its full value with a reputable insurance company from that date. Our interest in the Hardware must be notified to the insurance company and you agree to produce to us evidence of the insurance policy, your payment of the relevant premium and the notification of our interest should we require it.
In the event that you do not pay any instalments for the Hardware when due or do not pay the unpaid instalments on termination we shall be entitled to repossess the Hardware and you must return it to us without delay. After return of the Hardware in these circumstances we will credit you with any amounts you have already paid for it less any expenses we have incurred in repossessing the Hardware and less a reasonable deduction for any wear and tear of the Hardware.
Hardware can only be returned unused and undamaged in its original packaging, or if a fault is found.
A restock fee of 20% will be added to returned hardware that is not faulty (covers packaging, shipping and reduction in resale value).
Faulty hardware must be confirmed by the Support team.
Faulty hardware will be replaced as soon as possible if within its manufactures warranty. Hardware outside of warranty cannot be replaced and a claim instead should be through your own insurance.

a) Return the Hardware within 5 working days of the end of service.
b) Keep the Hardware.
In either situation, you will be charged for the remaining cost of the Hardware (over a 3 year period).

If you have had the Hardware for longer than 3 years, there is no charge.

We do not allow SIMs to be used in any equipment which enables the routing of calls or data (including, without limitation, text or picture messages) from fixed apparatus or standard devices to mobile equipment, by establishing a mobile to mobile call or transmission. Nor does it allow the use of any equipment which enables the sending of bulk SMS, voice or data services. We reserves the right to suspend without notice should we believe that such equipment is being used. During suspension, the liability for any access charges or calls will rest with the partner.
Inclusive roaming services on our mobile tariffs have been built for business users who travel periodically, and not those who roam across foreign networks on a semi-permanent or permanent basis.
If a customer uses their mobile in destinations outside the UK that qualify for inclusive access to standard bundles (this includes those countries that qualify for daily roaming services such as World Travel Select and/or legislation such as Roam Like At Home), for more than 50% of the time in any four-month rolling period, they can expect to receive a communication requesting a moderation of roaming services.
If a customer’s usage continues to exceed 50%, as described above, over the two-week period following the first notification, we reserves the right to either charge customers for this excessive usage or bar roaming services. Customers will be notified before any action is taken.
If you would like to move existing connections to new tariffs, there will be a Tariff Change Fee of £30 exc. VAT per number. In line with our cease fee policy, connections active for over 24 months will be exempt from this charge.
An autobar can be selected for Usage Alerts which will restrict the use of a mobile number. This can be used to assist in management of costs & reduce unexpected "bill shock". We will use best endeavours to apply the autobar, as soon as we become aware that the mobile number has breached the usage alert amount. However, in certain circumstances that are beyond our control, such as delays in call data being received from the network, overall charges may exceed the set limit and are still liable to be paid for.
