Terms And Conditions

These terms and conditions (“this Agreement”) constitute the contract governing the supply of telecoms services (“the Services”) by us to the person to whom such Services are provided (“the Customer” or “you”). Some terms and conditions may vary from time to time as described below. This Agreement comes into force once we have accepted your order for the Services. By submitting this order, you agree to these terms and conditions. If you are registering or purchasing this product on behalf of someone else, you undertake to ensure that they are aware of and agree to these terms and conditions. We will provide acceptance of the order by post or email, sent to the email address you supplied at sign-up.

1. Services

We will supply the Services in accordance with this Agreement. In doing so, we shall exercise the reasonable care and skill expected of a telecommunications operator, but no telecommunications service can be supplied without occasional faults. We will attempt to remedy any faults as soon as we can reasonably do so.

From time to time, we may vary some aspects of the Services, but we will try to inform you of these changes.

ccasionally, we may suspend the Services due to operational or technical reasons. If this occurs, we will try to inform you and we will attempt to restore the Services as soon as we reasonably can.

You may purchase additional Services from us, which will also, once we have accepted an order, be subject to this Agreement.

For customers who make use of the Services to a large extent, we may require you to provide us with forecasts of usage, to ensure that we can continue to supply the Services at a high level of quality.

We help customers manage their services by means of our web-sites (the “Web Control Pages”). These Web Control Pages will be protected by one or more passwords. You are responsible for the security of these passwords and must not disclose them to other parties. If you or we suspect that a password has become known to an unauthorised party, you or we must change that password.

Some of our Services allow you to record telephone calls. You agree that you have sole responsibility for any recordings made and undertake to comply with all relevant laws and regulations relating to the making and use of recordings.

Although it may be technically possible to use our Services from locations other than the UK, the Services are only sold for use within the UK. Brayford Numbers Limited will take no responsibility for any failures or quality limitations if any of our Services are used in other locations.

2. Activation of reserved numbers

You can order your numbers at any time online. Alternatively, you may complete your order via our call centre from 9:00 am to 17:30 pm, Monday through Friday. Any free services will be mapped automatically and your number will be activated immediately. Numbers and/or associated services that incur a monthly charge will require the Direct Debit mandate to be completed and returned before the service(s) will be activated.

3. Charges and Payments

The prices displayed on the website are the prices you pay.

Usage and recurring charges will be billed to you monthly, with an interim bill being levied if your account exceeds a pre-set limit. Recurring charges are normally payable monthly in arrears. We reserve the right to charge you interest on any unpaid amounts at a rate equal to three per cent above the base rate from time to time of Barclays Bank PLC. We also reserve the right to suspend your use of the Services without notice if bills are unpaid.

Your first Direct Debit payment for new accounts will be taken from your nominated bank account simultaneously with the second month’s Direct Debit payment. For example, if an account was opened in January, payment for that month will be taken alongside February’s payment in March.

We will send a VAT invoice by email notification to your current email address as held on our system, 10 working days prior to collection. You must inform us promptly if you believe the bill to be incorrect, and it is your responsibility to keep your e-mail address and payment details up to date. In the absence of obvious error, the records which we collect of the usage of the Services will be considered to be correct.
