2. OUR AGREEMENT
(a) This agreement between you and us applies from the time that we accept your request
for WDSL services.
(b) You must also pay a deposit if we ask for one (see Section 4 (g) below).
(c) We will open an account in your name. We will apply charges to your account. We will
connect you to the services as soon as we can.
(d) When we install equipment then, unless we otherwise agree, we will provide you with
service for a minimum period of twelve months. The minimum period starts from the date
we make the services available to you.
(e) If you want to end this agreement or cancel service during the minimum period, you
must notify us and pay us the appropriate cancellation charge. However, no such
cancellation charge is payable if we change the charges and as a result you would have
to pay us more overall or if you end this agreement or cancel service because any
license to run the network is ended. Once the minimum period is over, you can end the
agreement or cancel service by giving us 3 months notice.
(f) You will be responsible for inter-operability between your PC or your equipment and
our equipment. You shall not hold us responsible for your inability to access service
due to incompatibility between your equipment and our technical equipment. Furthermore, you shall not hold us responsible for your inability to access service due to technical mis-management of any internal connection between your equipment and ours.
(g) You will be responsible for disclosing to us a technical contact who is responsible for your equipment and the connections between your equipment and ours. Furthermore, you will be responsible for ensuring that this information remains current and complete.
(h) You shall allow any person accredited by us, on production of authorization,
access to your premises at all reasonable times for the purposes of providing service.
(i) You will obtain any necessary consents from third parties for the installation and
use of any WDSL equipment which is to be installed under this agreement.
(j) Unless you expressly tell us otherwise you agree to allow us to provide and publish
your name and email address in our directory information services.
3. PROVIDING SERVICES
(a) We will try to make sure that the services are always available to you, but
sometimes they may be affected by things we have no control over, for example, by faults
in other telecommunications networks.
(b) We provide the services to you as long as you agree:
- Not use the services for anything illegal or let anyone else do so;
- Not use the services for anything immoral or improper or let anyone else do so;
- Not use the services for anything that is offensive or may cause nuisance or
knowingly let anyone else do so;
- Only to use equipment that has been approved for use with the network and you must
follow relevant laws and rules that apply to the equipment;

- To follow all reasonable instructions we give you about the equipment, the services
and our other facilities;

of any connected networks and the Internet standards as published on our web site.
- We may have to vary the technical specification of service for operational reasons.
(c) We agree to provide you with service on the terms and conditions of this agreement,
which sets out the entire agreement between you and us.
(d) It is technically impracticable to provide service free of faults and we do
not undertake to do so. Where possible we will advise you by email of planned outages of
faults in our network. In the event of an unnoticed fault in service, you must report it
by telephone, written notice or email to the appropriate number specified by Wireless World, LLC. Upon receipt of a fault report, we will take all reasonable steps to correct the fault
as soon as reasonably practicable.
(e) If you connect to our network via a fixed telecommunications link or dial-up connection
not provided by us, you are responsible for making a separate application for the
appropriate telecommunications service and for complying with the terms and conditions
applicable to that service.
(f) You shall remain liable for any charges for service even though you are unable to
access service except in cases of severe disruption to the network due to our
negligence or willful default or omission.
(g) Your access to service may occasionally be restricted to allow implementation of new
facilities, software upgrades and routine maintenance.
4. WHAT AND HOW YOU PAY
(a) We have a monthly billing period and we will send you a bill every month. For
standard service, the bill will be for the month to come (i.e. in advance). Overage
changes and any other charges not previously charged for will be billed in the month
that has just passed. We may change the billing period.
(b) It is essential that you pay your bill within 30 days of the invoice date. If you
don't pay on time we can stop you from using some or all of the services and charge you
late fees and penalties. You agree that if you do not pay a bill on time we can
say that you have broken this agreement and we can terminate this agreement immediately.
All these rights are in addition to any other legal rights we may have against you which
we may also rely upon.
(c) You are responsible for all charges applied to your account whether you used it or
not except where your equipment has been lost, stolen or damaged and you have reported
this to our Customer Services.
(d) We can change these conditions if new laws or rules make it necessary.
(e) We can also change these conditions for any other good reason. We can also change
the charges.
(f) We can change the payment terms for any good reason. For instance, if you do not pay
your bills on time or if you pay your bills using credit cards that you are not
authorized to use.
(g) We can at any time ask you for a deposit (or an extra deposit) as security for equipment or charges if we have a good reason, for example, if we should increase your
credit limit (see Section (f) above). We can keep the deposit until the end of this
agreement. We will give it back to you when you pay us everything you owe, or we can use
your deposit to cover anything you owe us. We will not pay you interest on any deposit
you give us.
5. LIABILITY
(a) We are only liable to you as set out in this agreement. We have no other duty or
liability to you of any description.
(b) Nothing in this agreement removes or limits our liability for death or personal
injury caused by something we have done or failed to do.

direct loss or damage for something we or anyone who works for us does or does not do
under or in connection with this agreement, will be limited to $1,000 for one incident

6. WHEN WE MAY SUSPEND OR DISCONNECT THE SERVICES
(a) We may suspend the services without giving you notice if any of the following happen:
- The network breaks down or needs work done on it. We will try to make sure this
does not happen very often and will give advance notice to you by email wherever
possible;

- We may have to temporarily suspend service for the purposes of repair, maintenance
or improvement of our network and services.
(b) You are still liable for all charges during suspension or disconnection unless we
decide otherwise. For example, we would not make you pay the full monthly service
charges if there was a severe disruption to the network or where the network completely
broke down.
7. WHEN THE AGREEMENT ENDS
(a) We can end all or part of this agreement immediately if any of the following happen:

the agreement for any of the reasons set out in Section 7a (i),(ii), (iii) and (v) above
you must pay everything you owe on your account and the cancellation charge for any
service that is still within its minimum period. If we end this agreement for any of the
reasons set out in Section 7 (a)(iv) above, you must pay everything you owe on your
account but you will not need to pay a cancellation charge.
