(iv) The relevant tariff(s) for the services we agree to provide to you: and
(v) Any further conditions relating to specific services.
The terms of this agreement form part of the conditions of sale and shall be incorporated into the sales order form signed by the customer. These terms are to be read in conjunction with the conditions for communication services as far as those terms apply to consumer agreements.
1. The Services and Use of The Services
By using your chosen Consumer Wireless Broadband services, you are agreeing to the terms and conditions set out below that relate to those services including any changes to them or the services in accordance with these terms and conditions.
a) If you are also a consumer VoIP customer and your wireless broadband agreement ends or your broadband is suspended, your VoIP service may automatically end/be suspended too (Condition 1(c)).
b) Your subscription for your chosen wireless broadband product has a minimum term which starts on the date your radio is first activated to receive Connexin wireless broadband (the “minimum term”). The length of the minimum term is agreed when you ordered your Connexin wireless broadband product and will be confirmed by us in writing on or shortly after you have placed your order.
c) You must keep the Connexin wireless broadband product you have chosen for the duration of the minimum term unless you or we are allowed to end this agreement earlier (condition 11). If your agreement ends during the minimum term (other than where you have a right to end it without incurring early termination charges – see condition 13(b)) we will charge you the remaining agreement term and may charge you an early termination fee. Unless you tell us otherwise, we may charge this amount directly to any credit or debit card or direct debit which you have provided us with details of and, by entering into this agreement, you are authorising us to do so. We will give you reasonable notice in writing before these charges are made. For further information about these charges, please refer to condition 13 (titled `How long your agreement lasts’).
d) You may cancel your Connexin wireless broadband after the minimum term. Cancellation requires 30 days' notice in advance, and it must be requested in writing via our online live chat system. Please note that your agreement will continue, and you will be liable for the monthly subscription until a formal cancellation notice is received. Verbal cancellation will not be accepted.
e) Your use of Connexin wireless broadband, and those you allow to use Connexin wireless broadband, must comply with our usage policies. If your chosen product has a usage cap then you must not go over that usage cap each month otherwise, we may act against you. This may include charging for the additional usage, suspending your service or upgrading your product to one with a higher usage cap. If you exceed your usage cap twice in any six-month period. You will then have to pay the current price for that product. You are responsible under this agreement for the use of Connexin wireless broadband by any person you allow to use it (condition 2(c) and usage policies).
f) Prices and products can change, even during your minimum term. If we increase the price of your chosen product and you are materially disadvantaged by this, you will have a right to move to another product accessible by you or end this agreement. Unless we increase it for any of the reasons set out in condition 8(c), you can also end the agreement during your minimum term if we increase your Connexin wireless broadband payment. If you wish to end this agreement for these reasons, then you Connexin, K3 Business Park, Unit 28/29, Clough Road, Hull, HU5 1SN t: 01482 363738 w: www.connexin.co.uk need to let us know within 30 days of notice of the change (Conditions 7, 13(c) and 13(d)). Your right to cancel does not apply to you if, in line with our usage policies, your product is upgraded to one with a higher usage cap.
g) Your Connexin wireless broadband does not require you to have a phone line to receive service. However, should you want to keep your existing landline number you can port your number to Connexin (subject to Connexin having a porting agreement with your existing provider). An upfront porting fee will apply as well as any monthly charges associated with taking out a Connexin voice package.
h) If after we port your phone number to Connexin, you decide to cancel or switch your Connexin wireless broadband service to another provider, your Connexin voice services may automatically be cancelled at the same time. If you want to keep your phone number, you will need to port this to another provider prior to cancellation. A port-out fee will apply.
i) If you take Connexin wireless broadband and have an engineer installation or choose to have an engineer install your wireless router, we will confirm the charge (if any) for your appointment when you place your order. Connexin will not install Connexin wireless broadband services where extensive construction over and above standard needs is required. Please refer to the installation terms and conditions set out at the end of this agreement.
j) Connexin recommends that you ensure all your devices that connect to the internet are protected by appropriate up to date antivirus software and firewall at all times.
k) If you have taken a static IP address and your Connexin broadband is disconnected, suspended, or terminated for any reason, your IP address may be reassigned to Connexin or another Connexin customer. Your old static IP address will not be available to you again if your service is reactivated or you subsequently return to Connexin broadband.

If you require any advice on your legal rights, you can refer to www.adviceguide.org.uk
7. Changing Your Address and Telephone Number

8. Paying For Connexin Wireless Broadband
a) Unless otherwise agreed, you will be charged the monthly subscription you have agreed to pay for the product you have chosen (“Connexin wireless broadband payment”) from the date your connection is first activated to receive Connexin ireless broadband (“activation date”). We will collect the Connexin wireless broadband payments (and any other amount which we have told you is due in relation to Connexin wireless broadband) each month with your other Connexin subscription payments via the same payment instruction. All prices quoted for Connexin wireless broadband assume you will be paying your bill by direct debit. If you choose to pay your bill or any other charge by debit card or credit card an additional charge may apply. We will tell you the amount of this charge when you tell us you want to pay by debit card or credit card, and the amount will be no more than the cost to us of you using that method of payment.
b) Subject to condition 13(c), we may increase your Connexin wireless broadband payment at any time for any reason stated in condition 18(a) or 18(b) by giving you at least one calendar months' notice in writing. This notice requirement does not apply where, in line with our usage policies, your product is upgraded to one with a higher usage cap or you incur charges for going over your usage cap.
c) We may also increase your Connexin wireless broadband payment if required by law or if any regulatory authority requests or requires a change to any aspect of our pricing, including to reflect a change in the rate of VAT or other applicable taxation charge or levy, which affects your Connexin broadband payment directly or our pricing structure. We will use our reasonable endeavours to notify you before any price increase takes effect under this condition 8(c). Your Connexin wireless broadband payment will also change if you are permitted to change products, or in line with our usage policies, if we upgrade your product to one with a higher usage cap or charge you for going over your usage cap.
d) If you have provided unauthorised payment or other details, we can suspend provision of Connexin wireless broadband without giving you notice. This does not affect our right to end this agreement under condition 13(h).
e) If you miss any payments you owe to us including for any Connexin service we may charge you a reasonable fee to help pay for the extra costs we incur when processing late payments, or interest at the yearly equivalent of 4% over Barclays bank plc’s base rate for the whole period of any late payment, to compensate us for you breaking these conditions. Any interest is worked out daily. These fees will not be applied to any amount you have not paid because it is the subject of an ongoing dispute between us. You will also be responsible for paying all reasonable debt recovery fees/charges incurred in recovering your debt, including fees charged by any debt collection company we use. We will send you a reminder or call you before applying any overdue payment fees or instructing a debt collection company. We may also charge you a reasonable fee that reflects the costs we incur if any payment instruction from you is returned to us because you do not have enough funds in your account, is cancelled or is not cleared by your bank.

17. Law And Geographical Limits
This agreement is governed by English law. Any disputes can be dealt with by any UK court that can lawfully deal with the case.
18. Reasons For Changes
a) We may make changes in accordance with the other conditions of this agreement for any of the following reasons:
- Connexin wireless broadband is sold as a variable service with variable prices (this means our products may be changed, altered, improved, or added to at Connexin’s discretion).

- We intend to change the way we structure our products and services.
- We are introducing new products, services, or features.
- The cost to Connexin of providing Connexin wireless broadband increases (for example, we must pay third parties more for use of their infrastructure or launching other new and improved customer products and services).
- Other costs associated with running Connexin’s business increase (for example, we invest in improving customer support).
- We change the way we provide products and services to you (for example, we develop new infrastructure or technology to provide you with a better broadband experience).
- To help improve the security and operation of our technical infrastructure (for example, to prevent misuse of the Connexin network).
- We reorganise the way we structure or run our business.
- Valid legal or regulatory reasons; or
- We change the conditions to make them clearer or easier to understand, to reflect changes in law or to update our agreements from time to time so all our customers are on the same conditions.
- We provide Connexin wireless broadband on an ongoing basis, and we cannot foresee what may change in the future. This means that we may need to make changes in accordance with the other conditions of this agreement for reasons other than those set out in condition 18(a) above.
19. Notice Of Your Statutory Rights to Cancel in Your Cooling Off Period

Connexin may offer an enhanced cooling off period from time to time in which case we will advise you of this right at the time of your purchase.
A separate cancellation policy applies to installation services which is contained in the Connexin wireless broadband installation terms and conditions (set out at the end of this agreement).

Effects of cancellation
If you cancel an agreement during your cooling off period we will refund to you all payments received from you, excluding any engineering charges or the costs of delivery of any equipment you ordered e.g. your wireless router (“equipment”), but if you requested a service to begin during the cooling off period, you must pay us an amount which is proportionate to the service provided up to the point you cancelled your order.

If you have received any discounted equipment and/or set-up services, and during your cooling off period you cancel any conditional agreement but wish to keep your equipment, you will no longer be eligible for that discount and will be required to pay Connexin the difference between the discounted price and the full standard price for the equipment and/or set-up services.
Refunds
We will make any refund due to you (less any deductions due to us) without undue delay and not later than the earliest of 30 days after the day we either receive the equipment back from you. We will make the refund using the same means of payment that you used when you placed your order unless you have agreed otherwise.

20. Connexin Wireless Broadband Installation Terms and Conditions
These are the terms and conditions under which Connexin will, upon request from you arrange for the installation of network equipment to enable you to use the Connexin wireless broadband service at your address (“agreement”). You can call us in relation to this agreement on our contact number(s) as shown on our website at www.connnexin.co.uk.
In this agreement “address,” “Connexin” and “wireless router” have the same meanings as given for those terms in the Connexin wireless broadband subscription agreement.
21. Installation Services
a) When you take Connexin wireless broadband you require an engineer to install your wireless broadband service and/or wireless router for you and connect one device to the Connexin wireless broadband service (“managed installation”). If you choose managed installation, you will be responsible for connecting any additional online equipment you may have.
b) We will confirm the indicative charges (if any) for your installation when you order. This initial charge may vary due to factors beyond our control such as but not limited to the size, shape, and structure of the property where the installation is taking place. Our engineer will confirm the final Installation charges with you on the day of the site visit before proceeding with the installation.
c) The installation of network equipment may require the consent of someone else (for example your landlord). You are responsible for ensuring that all necessary consents have been obtained before we install your network equipment.
d) Connexin will not install Connexin wireless broadband services where extensive construction over and above standard needs is required. If the engineer determines that the installation is not standard and is unable to proceed, we will proceed with the installation subject to you accepting and paying the additional charges or cancel your order and refund any monies you have paid in full.
e) We will organise a day for installation which is convenient for both of us, and we will contact you confirming the date of your engineer appointment. Details of the arrangements you need to make for an engineer visit will be explained to you.
f) All network equipment installed as part of the installation on or near your property (such as the wireless equipment installed on your property) always remain the property of Connexin Limited.
22. Installation Offers
If you pay nothing or a reduced price compared to our standard price for your installation, we can charge you the difference between the lower price you have paid (if any) and our then standard price for installation if your Connexin wireless broadband subscription agreement ends during the minimum term (other than where we withdraw Connexin wireless broadband or you end your Connexin wireless broadband subscription agreement and have the right to do so).
23. Installation Booking Cancellation
a) You have the right to cancel your installation booking for Connexin wireless broadband and managed installation (or just your managed installation) without giving any reason any time up to two working days before the date of the booked installation. Connexin may offer an enhanced Installation cancellation period from time to time which we will advise you of at the time of your purchase.
b) How to cancel: Any installation cancellations within this timeframe must be in accordance with this notice. You can cancel your Connexin Wireless installation booking by:
- Contacting us via Live Chat on www.connexin.co.uk.
- Telephone – 01482 363738
- Email – complaints@connexin.co.uk
You must give your name, customer account number, address, post code, telephone number and, where available, your e-mail address in order to cancel your order. If you cancel in writing, we will send you an acknowledgement of receipt by e-mail.
Effects of cancellation
If you cancel an agreement up to two working days before the date of the booked installation, we will refund to you all payments received from you, excluding any charges for works already performed or the costs of delivery of any equipment you ordered e.g. your wireless router (“equipment”). If you requested a service to begin during the cooling off period, you must pay us an amount which is proportionate to the service provided up to the point you cancelled your order. You will not receive a refund for any one-off fees for activation or set up services if you cancel a service after activation. If you cancel equipment, we may automatically cancel any related subscription unless you tell us otherwise. If you cancel the engineer booking not giving at least two working days’ notice or are not present for when the engineer arrives for any reason, we will charge you an engineer visit charge as explained to you when you make your booking and as detailed on our website.
Return of Equipment
If you cancel an agreement, you are responsible for arranging the return of and returning the equipment provided under that agreement without undue delay. You are responsible for the costs of returning the equipment you have ordered and Connexin may charge you our direct returns costs. Connexin can offset any returns costs against any money that it owes to you for any reason. You must keep any equipment that has been delivered to you or installed on your property safe until it is returned. We may make a deduction for any loss in value because of unnecessary handling by you. We may charge you for any equipment which is not returned to Connexin.
Discounts
If you have received any discounted equipment and/or set-up services, and during your cooling off period you cancel any conditional agreement but wish to keep your equipment, you will no longer be eligible for that discount and will be required to pay Connexin the difference between the discounted price and the full standard price for the equipment and/or set-up services.
Refunds
We will make any refund due to you (less any deductions due to us) without undue delay and not later than the earliest of 30 days after the day we either receive the equipment back from you. We will make the refund using the same means of payment that you used when you placed your order unless you have agreed otherwise.
