19. SUPPORT AND FAULT REPORTING

19.1. Customers must report faults through an official support channel published by Easi Telecom.

19.2. A fault will be regarded as formally logged when it has been recorded in Easi Telecom's support system and a ticket or reference number has been generated where such functionality is available.

21. TERMINATION BY EASI TELECOM

21.1. Easi Telecom may terminate an Agreement for material breach where the Customer fails to remedy the breach within any applicable contractual or statutory remedy period.

21.2. Easi Telecom may terminate immediately where continued provision of the Service would:

  1. be unlawful;
  2. create a serious security risk;
  3. expose Easi Telecom to material fraud;
  4. endanger persons or infrastructure; or
  5. contravene a lawful regulatory or court instruction.

21.3. Unless a longer period is required by law or contract, Easi Telecom may terminate a month-to-month Service without cause on at least 30 days' written notice.


22. CANCELLATION BY THE CUSTOMER

22.1. Month-to-month Services

Unless applicable law provides otherwise, a Customer may cancel a month-to-month Service by submitting a cancellation request through the Easi Telecom customer portal or another cancellation method formally accepted by Easi Telecom.

Easi Telecom requires one full calendar month’s notice for cancellation of a month-to-month Service.

This means that the cancellation takes effect at the end of the calendar month following the month in which the cancellation notice is received.

For the avoidance of doubt:

  1. If cancellation is submitted on 1 May, the Service will remain active until 30 June.
  2. If cancellation is submitted on 10 May, the Service will remain active until 30 June.
  3. If cancellation is submitted on 31 May, the Service will remain active until 30 June.
  4. If cancellation is submitted on 1 June, the Service will remain active until 31 July.

The Customer will therefore be billed in full for the month in which cancellation is submitted and for the following calendar month.

The notice period is not calculated as 30 days from the date of cancellation. It is calculated according to calendar months.

For example, cancellation submitted on 15 May does not result in termination on 14 June. The Service will continue until 30 June.

Cancellation does not take effect immediately unless Easi Telecom expressly agrees otherwise in writing.

The Customer remains responsible for all recurring charges, usage charges, equipment charges and other valid amounts due up to the effective cancellation date.

Where the Customer requests that the Service be disconnected before the end of the notice period, this does not automatically reduce or waive the charges payable for the applicable notice period.

22.2. Cancellation request date

A cancellation request will be regarded as received on the date on which it is successfully submitted through the customer portal or acknowledged in writing by Easi Telecom through an approved cancellation channel.

The Customer should retain the cancellation confirmation or reference number as proof that notice was submitted.

22.3. Fixed-term consumer agreements

Where section 14 of the Consumer Protection Act applies, the Customer may cancel a fixed-term agreement at any time by giving 20 Business Days' written notice.

Easi Telecom may impose a reasonable cancellation charge as permitted by applicable law.

The calendar-month cancellation rule in clause 22.1 does not override any statutory cancellation right that applies to a Customer under the Consumer Protection Act.

22.4. Equipment

Where Equipment has been supplied on loan, rental or as part of the Service, it must be returned in accordance with clause 13.

Failure to return Equipment within the required period may result in the Customer being charged its reasonable replacement value.

22.5. Outstanding amounts

Cancellation does not extinguish any amount already owing to Easi Telecom.

All outstanding invoices, equipment charges, call charges, installation charges and other valid amounts remain payable after termination.

22.6. No partial-month refunds

Unless required by law or expressly approved by Easi Telecom, no refund or credit will be provided for a partial month where the Service is disconnected before the end of a paid billing period.



23. EXPIRY OF FIXED-TERM AGREEMENTS

23.1. Where the Consumer Protection Act applies, Easi Telecom will comply with applicable requirements relating to notice of expiry and renewal of fixed-term agreements.

23.2. A fixed-term consumer agreement will not automatically continue for another fixed term unless lawfully agreed.

23.3. Where permitted by law, the Service may continue on a month-to-month basis after expiry.


24. SERVICE LEVELS AND CREDITS

24.1. Unless a written SLA expressly applies, Services are supplied on a best-effort basis.

24.2. Residential or standard business Services do not carry an uptime guarantee unless specifically stated.

24.3. Service credits are available only where:

  1. expressly provided by an applicable SLA;
  2. required by applicable law; or
  3. approved by Easi Telecom as a customer-service remedy.

24.4. Where an SLA applies, its provisions regarding uptime, response times and service credits prevail over conflicting provisions of these Terms.

30.5. The limitation in clause 30.4 does not apply where liability cannot lawfully be limited, including where applicable in respect of gross negligence or intentional misconduct.
