1. Our Services
a. This Agreement covers the provision by CLI SECURE to you of our Services. If you have subscribed to CLI SECURE Broadband, a separate agreement will be sent to cover the terms.

b. The Services under this Agreement are for businesses. You have confirmed to us that you are a trading business.

c. We may take instructions from a person if we have a good reason to think that he or she is acting with your permission.

d. The Services consist of:

i. the installation or takeover and rental of a fixed telephone line;

ii. the facility to make or receive phone calls including the ability to send or receive information for example, from computers using your telephone line;

iii. any one of a range of call price plans that enable you to make discounted telephone calls;

iv. any other facilities such as caller display that we agree to give you;

v. one phone number for each fixed telephone line that you rent from us, will be published (with your business details) in BT and CLI SECURE business directories free of charge, and will be available on directory enquiries services, unless you tell us not to; and

vi. any other services that we provide you under this Agreement.

vii. Access to the emergency services and provision of caller location information?

2. When the service starts
a. For new line installations, we will agree a date with you for installation. If you cancel any appointment for the installation of your service after 12.00pm on the day before we agree to install your telephone line, you will be liable to pay a missed appointment charge at our then current Charges.

b. Time is not of the essence for the Services. We will try to provide the Services by any date agreed with you, but any suggested date is an estimate.

c. For line transfers, we will normally transfer the line from your current provider within ten working days. The time taken to port numbers from other networks varies and sometimes it may not be possible or reasonably practicable. If this happens we will provide you with a new number(s).

3. How we provide the Services to you
a. CLI SECURE provides services via wholesale line rental (“WLR”) and, for telephones lines with CLI SECURE broadband, Next Generation Networks (“NGN”). WLR means that CLI SECURE will bill you for line rental of your BT line and BT Openreach™ will continue to maintain your line and fix any faults that may occur. Developments in network technology (known as Local Loop Unbundling or “LLU”) may enable us to provide fixed line with broadband service to you through Next Generation Networks. If you have previously agreed to take our WLR service we may transfer you to our LLU network, but we will still offer the same services to you as those which you received from us before the transfer. If a Next Generation Network is available to you at the time of your transfer to CLI SECURE, we may transfer you directly to this network. In all circumstances your phone line from the exchange to your premises will continue to be maintained and repaired by BT Openreach™.

b. You acknowledge that in order to avoid delays occurring in the ordering process, CLI SECURE will need to be notified by BT™ of any products or services presently in use on your line that are incompatible with the WLR or NGN service. BT™ or other network providers are under a strict duty not to disclose information about a customer’s services to a third party unless the customer has consented to such disclosure. In entering into this Agreement you give consent to BT™ or other network providers to disclose such information to CLI SECURE. You also give CLI SECURE authority to act as your agent to arrange connection onto CLI SECURE services. If CLI SECURE is unable to take over the billing of your line rental, for whatever reason, you hereby authorise us to carry your phone calls only through CPS (see below).

4. Carrier pre-selection service (“CPS”) & local loop unbundling (“LLU”)
CPS & LLU is the routing of your services through a carrier other than BT™. Your phone line(s) are still maintained by BT™ engineers but the calls and broadband service are carried on another network. We may select and at any time change any carrier or other service provider for the purposes of providing the CPS or LLU service. You hereby irrevocably authorise us to give all notices, nominations and other authorisations necessary for us to provide the CPS or LLU service.
