Page 1 of 25 STANDARD TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR YOUR RESIDENTIAL CUSTOMER SERVICE AGREEMENT FOR VISION FIBRE MEDIA’S INSTALLATION SERVICES, INTERNET SERVICES, TELEPHONE OVER BROADBAND SERVICES AND ANY OTHER ADDITIONAL OR ANCILLARY SERVICES PROVIDED IN CONNECTION WITH THEM 1. THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS You are reading Vision Fibre Media’s Residential Customer Standard Terms and Conditions ("Terms") which form part of your Residential Customer Service Agreement ("Agreement") for VFM’s Services. These Terms together with the other documents forming the Agreement (as listed below) set out the terms and conditions upon which we will supply you with VFM’s Installation ("Installation") Service (if applicable), Internet ("Internet") Service (if applicable) and Telephone Over Broadband ("Telephone") Service (if applicable) and any Additional or Ancillary ("Additional") Services (if applicable), which you may choose to purchase from us from time to time. Unless you purchase the Installation-only Service, this will include (as applicable depending on the packages you choose to purchase in your Order) our Vision Zip 20Mbs ("Zip"), Vision Dash 50Mbs ("Dash"), Vision Rush 100Mbs (“Rush”) or Vision Lightning 1Gbs ("Lightning") Internet connection and access, Vision Fibre Router, maintenance and support services, Telephone Service and such other Additional Services as are agreed in your Order or as we may agree to provide you from time to time (all of which are referred to together as "Services"). If you sign up to the Telephone Service you understand and agree that the Telephone Service may not offer all of the features you may expect from a traditional phone line and is dependent on your connection to the Network and the availability of the Network. The Telephone Service may sometimes be unavailable as a result of things over which we have no control, for example, power disruptions and will cease to function if there is a power failure or a failure in the Network. You understand and acknowledge that the Telephone Service allows calls to the emergency services numbers 999 and 112 and these services WILL NOT function if there is a power cut or if your Internet Service connection fails. You agree to inform potential users of the Telephone Service of the above limitations and you understand and accept that you should always have an alternative means of accessing 999/112 emergency services (whether by using the existing copper wire telephone line to the Premises or another alternative). You can find more details about the Telephone Service and its limitations below under section 12 "Special Provisions Relating to the Telephone Service and Number Portability" and on our website.
