Terms of Service

Terms and conditions for residential broadband internet and telephone services.

In this document, (“Service”) means the provision of a Broadband Internet Service or the Carrier Pre-Selection (“CPS”) Telephone Service, or a combination of both Services. Beaming Limited (“Beaming”) agrees to provide the Service to the Customer and the Customer agrees to use the Service on the terms and conditions set out in this document (“the Agreement”).

1. Broadband Internet Services

Commencement and Duration of the Agreement

The Agreement commences on the date you accept these terms (the “Commencement Date”) and will continue for an initial period of three months (the “Initial Period”) and indefinitely thereafter unless terminated earlier by either party in accordance with Clause 13 of this Agreement. Our acceptance of your application for Broadband services maybe subject to us performing a credit check on you and us being satisfied with the outcome of the credit check.

2. Provision of the Broadband Internet Service

We will provide the Broadband services (the “Broadband Services”) to you with reasonable skill and care and in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. Whilst we will use our reasonable endeavours to begin providing these Broadband Services to you by any date provisionally agreed, we will have no liability for any failure to meet such dates. We can only provide services to areas of the United Kingdom in which we are technically able to offer Broadband services using the BT Wholesale IPStream network.

In order to use the Broadband Services, you will need an existing BT telephone line and have a personal computer of a minimum specification. You must also ensure that any other hardware such as cables and modems you use to connect to the Broadband Service is compatible in order to use the service. You recognise that we are dependent upon certain third parties such as BT Wholesale to install, configure and provide the Broadband Services to you. You further recognise that there may be technical limitations that prevent us from delivering a service to you such as distance from the BT telephone exchange or the quality of BT’s local loop.

We do not undertake to provide a fault free service. If, however, a fault occurs, you should report the fault by electronic mail or by telephone.

Hardware Support: We offer technical support on all hardware, such as modems and routers, purchased from Beaming during the initial ordering process. If you choose to use your own broadband hardware we will not be able to provide any technical support for such hardware.

We may suspend the Broadband Services where necessary for emergency reasons or for scheduled periods of downtime to repair, maintain or improve the Services. Beaming will always provide Customers with as much notice that is reasonably practical for such outages. Beaming will restore the Services as soon as it reasonably can after suspension.

We may, for operational or other reasons, change your allocated IP address, email address or any other codes, numbers or addresses allocated to you or the specification of the Services but any such changes will not materially affect the Broadband Services.

We may immediately suspend your access to the Broadband Services in the event that you do not pay an invoice in accordance with Clause 3.

We may immediately suspend your access to the Broadband Services in the event that you are in breach of Clauses 5, 6 or 17.

3. Charges and Deposits

You agree to pay us the charges as detailed in our Price List (the “Fees”).

Payment is by Direct Debit and all the usual safeguards and guarantees apply. No changes in the date, frequency or amount to be debited can be made without notifying you at least 10 working days in advance of your account being debited. In the event of any error, you are entitled to an immediate refund from your Bank or Building society. You have the right to cancel a Direct Debit Instruction at any time simply by writing to your Bank or Building society and with a copy to us.

We will send you your first bill shortly after we begin providing the Broadband Services. The first bill will include any setup Fees or hardware ordered during the registration process. The first monthly bill will also include the pro-rata portion of the rental from the activation date until the end of the Calendar month, together with the first month’s Broadband rental in advance. We will send you a further bill every month, but we reserve the right to vary the dates and frequency of the bill.

You will receive a monthly bill notification via email which will be sent to your registered email address. This email will contain a link to our online Billing Portal. We will provide you full access to our Billing Portal to enable you to view your bill online. You will receive your bill notification within a minimum of 10 working days notice before any payment is debited from your bank or building society account.

If your electronic payment is rejected, or becomes, or is, invalid or unavailable, thereby preventing us from recovering the sums due under your account within 4 days following the due date for payment, we reserve the right immediately to withdraw your access to the Broadband Services. You will also be charged an administration fee as deemed reasonable to recover such payment.

In these circumstances, you will be sent a letter giving you 10 days in which to arrange for your account to be discharged in full.

If, in response to our letter, you provide us with your valid payment details so as to enable us to collect the sums due on your account, we will re-apply for payment. If your proposed electronic payment method is still rejected, invalid or unavailable, or if your account remains outstanding for any other reason, 18 days after the original due date for payment, then (i) you will be charged a further administration fee together with a fee for the submission of a further warning letter, and (ii) a letter will be sent to you requesting the discharge of your account in full, and/or for appropriate arrangements to be made with us for your account to be discharged, which must be effected within 7 days from the date of this letter, failing which we reserve the right to refer your outstanding account to Beaming’s credit control department.

If your account remains unpaid for a period of 25 days after the original due date for payment, a security deposit of three times your average monthly invoice will be required before we reinstate your Broadband Services.

If your account remains unpaid for a period of 32 days after the original due date for payment, your service will then be terminated and your account will be referred to Beaming’s credit control department for it to take the appropriate action to collect the outstanding sums.

If we are required to instruct our solicitors or other professional advisers to collect any outstanding sums on your account, you will be responsible for, and we will look to you to discharge, those costs that are incurred by us in taking such action.

You must ensure that the account holder’s name is the same as the name on the payment details that are provided.

If you currently receive a Broadband service from an alternative supplier you are responsible for any contractual agreement you have with them and any liabilities you may incur for terminating your current agreement.

4. Equipment

You will ensure that any equipment that you attach (directly or indirectly) to the Broadband Services is technically compatible with the Broadband Services and that its use does not breach any relevant legislation or telecommunications industry standards. If we contact you and request that any such equipment be disconnected from our Service, you must comply immediately with such request or face termination of your Service.

Sharing Logon Details

Beaming prohibits customers from sharing details.

Port Scanning

Beaming prohibits the use of port scanning software on its services.

Some methods of sharing internet access or applications expose your external internet connection to other internet users, and enable them to send unsolicited bulk emails via your computer (known as SPAM).

As Beaming do not block any ports it is vital that you configure your network securely, you are fully responsible for security in your own network and failure to secure it properly will result in your disconnection from Beaming services.

Heavy Usage

Persistent heavy users of the service, who in Beaming’s reasonable opinion could be seen to be over-using their contended service, may at Beaming’s discretion find their available bandwidth restricted at certain times of the day.
