Set out within this document are the general terms and conditions (the “General Terms”)
which apply to all Regional Broadband fixed telephone (including VOIP) and broadband
services (excluding satellite) (the “Services”).
Other Specific Terms & Conditions
In addition to the General Terms, other more specific terms may apply and relate to the
specific Service ordered by You (the “Specific Terms”).

Binding agreement
The General Terms together with the Order Process and any Service specific terms and
conditions, tariff plans or promotions constitute a legally binding agreement (the
“Agreement”) between Regional Broadband and You. If any of the Services ordered by You
are used by You or anybody else (with or without Your permission), that shall also be
deemed to constitute an acceptance of this Agreement.

Commencement and Term
From the Commencement Date, You shall be bound by and deemed to have accepted the
Agreement.
Subject to termination in accordance with these General Terms, the Agreement shall
continue for the Minimum Term of the applicable Services and thereafter shall continue on a
month by month basis until terminated in accordance with these General Terms.

Changes to the Services or the Agreement
Regional Broadband may vary or change the Agreement or any part of the Services for any
commercial, technical or operational reason and any material changes shall be notified to
You in advance.
These Terms and Conditions can only be changed by Regional Broadband giving You thirty
(30) days’ notice. In the event of any such alteration, You shall have the option to terminate
the Service without penalty during that 30 day notice period, subject to payment by You of all
Charges due to date. Your continued use of the Service after this 30 day notice period has
expired signifies Your acceptance of any amendment.

Wholesale Providers Requirements
The Service may rely on a Wholesale Provider of either fixed telephone line or fibre access
to allow provision of the Services. You must have a service delivery address located within a
geographic area covered by the network reach of the Wholesale Provider’s network, and be
capable of a standard installation type as determined by the Wholesale Provider.

Moving Home
Regional Broadband shall be under no obligation, to provide You with the Services at Your
new address if You move home, but may attempt to do so if it is within our serviceable area.
If You move home and Regional Broadband does not provide You with Services at Your new
address You remain liable to pay the applicable Charges in relation to the Minimum Period
for the Services provided to Your old address.
If Regional Broadband does agree to provide the Services to Your new address, You shall
be entered into a new Minimum Term contract for all Services associated with Your account
from the date of activation in the new address.

change and amend the account holder details for Your Regional Broadband customer
account. You can find out more information on www.regionalbroadband.ie.

Timing of Installation
Timelines for Service installation will vary depending on the circumstances affecting the
delivery mechanism for You. Regional Broadband will, on receipt of an order, endeavour to
provide You with an estimated timeline within which it will deliver the Services. Regional
Broadband will use its reasonable efforts to install the Services in accordance with the
timeline it agrees with You, but such dates are estimates only and Regional Broadband
cannot guarantee that it will meet such dates. Regional Broadband will work with the
Wholesale Provider to provide the initial connection to You as soon as possible and in any
event within forty five (45) days of the date on Your Order Process or as otherwise agreed
with You. If using commercially reasonable efforts, we do not provide You with the initial
connection within such 45 day period, Regional Broadband shall not be liable, but the
Agreement may be terminated with immediate effect without penalty between Regional
Broadband and You.

Delivery Time Frames
Please note that while we strive to provide next day delivery whenever possible, we
cannot guarantee it as delivery times may vary depending on the operations of our delivery
partners, stock availability, as well as the day of the week and time that an order is placed.

Next day delivery will only be available on standard working days, which are Monday to Friday
and excludes Saturdays, Sundays, Good Friday and bank or public holidays

Engineer Visits for Installation
If an Engineer is required to visit Your home or place of business (the “Property”) to install
the Equipment (“Engineer Visit”), You will be notified with an initial appointment date and
time (within normal working hours) for the Engineer Visit. If You wish to reschedule this initial
appointment, You can do so without charge until 4pm on previous working day, prior to the
appointment.
The Engineer must be allowed access to the Property in order to allow for the installation of
Equipment and so that they may carry out any works necessary for the provision of such
Services.

Preparing the property for the engineer
You accept full responsibility to ensure that there is a clear and safe environment for the
Engineer to carry out the installation of the Service, including moving any obstructing
furniture prior to the arrival of the Engineer. The Engineer is forbidden from engaging in such
activity and Regional Broadband reserve the right to charge for any additional time spent on
site by the Engineer as a result of having to wait, or as a result of having to reschedule the
appointment due to the Property not being ready for the installation.
You may require Equipment in order to receive the Services. Where this Equipment has
been posted to You, it is Your responsibility to have the Equipment at the Property prior to
the Engineer Visit.

Engineer Works
The installation of the Service may require works to be carried out on the Property, which
may include a change of phone socket in the wall or drilling a hole through the wall of Your
property and affixing a coupler box to an external and internal wall and/or any other works
which may be required to complete the installation as deemed necessary by the Engineer.
The Engineer will utilise any suitable available pre-existing overhead and underground
infrastructure where possible, although in certain circumstances, underground digs may be
required. Where no underground ducts are available, an overhead install solution may be
used between homes and/or businesses and/or from a power line, or telephone, pole onto
the façade of the Property. You must be present at the Property at the arranged time for
install, in order to facilitate access, as required and to acknowledge that the works have
been carried out to a suitable standard.
Regional Broadband has no responsibility for carrying out any remedial works to the
Property after cessation of the Service and/or removal of Equipment.

Third Party Consent to Engineer Visits and Works
It is Your responsibility to obtain any third party consents as may be required by the
Wholesale Provider. Failure to obtain these consents shall result in this Agreement being
terminated with immediate effect without penalty between Regional Broadband and You.
Where rental premises are concerned, it is the responsibility of the tenant to inform and seek
permission from the landlord regarding the installation of Equipment, including any required
alterations to the premises.

No liability for engineer works or power interruption.
The Service installation will be completed by the Engineer. Regional Broadband does not
accept any liability whatsoever for any loss or damage that may occur to the Property during
the Service Installation.
Your power supply may be interrupted during the installation process and during the
provisioning of a Service You may experience a temporary loss of existing services.
Regional Broadband shall not be held liable to You for any losses or damages howsoever
arising during such period.

Cancellation and penalty charges re Engineer Visit.
You will be liable to pay a penalty charge to Regional Broadband in each of the following
cases;
If You have not provided the necessary cancellation notice period in respect of the
scheduled Engineer Visit appointment (i.e. Up to 4pm of the previous working day) or do not
answer Your phone within the scheduled appointment window;
If the Engineer cannot gain access to the Property due to a 3rd party access issue, for
example within an apartment block;
If You refuse to allow the Engineer onto Your Property on the agreed appointment date;
In the event an extension kit is required and the Property has not been cleared for the
Engineer to work. This can include the removal of furniture or carpet etc.
Where the environment is considered dangerous or unsafe to the Engineer, the works may
not proceed but the cancellation/penalty charge may be levied regardless.

Provision of the services and Service levels
Regional Broadband will, once installed, use reasonable skill and care in supplying the
Services, but there is no guarantee of fault free performance. Regional Broadband does not
warrant that the Services will be suitable for specific customer applications, that the
operation of the Services will be uninterrupted or error-free or that the Services will support
or be compatible with any applications or other services which the Customer uses in
conjunction with the Services.
Due to the nature of the Service, it is often not possible for Regional Broadband to fix a
particular fault in a guaranteed timeframe. However, Regional Broadband will use all
reasonable endeavours to repair faults in a timely fashion, but is not liable for compensation
or refunds to You if targeted service quality levels are not met.
Unauthorised third party access or interference
Regional Broadband shall on a network level make reasonable efforts to prevent
unauthorised logical access to the Services by third parties but shall have no liability You for
any loss or damage caused by unauthorised third party logical access to Services or the
Equipment. Security of devices and Equipment is your responsibility.

Fair Usage
To ensure equal internet access for all subscribers, Regional Broadband operates a fair
usage policy. Fair usage establishes an equitable balance in internet access across high
speed internet services for all subscribers. A fair usage policy also exists in relation to voice
packages. To ensure this equity, certain types of traffic such as email and browsing may be
prioritized over other traffic. Regional Broadband provides the Service on a “best effort”
basis and does not guarantee upload or download speeds.
A copy of the fair usage policy is available on the website
www.regionalbroadband.ie/fair-usage-policy.pdf. Article 4.1 (d) of Regulation (EU)
2015/2120 requires Regional Broadband to provide a clear and comprehensible explanation
of the minimum, normally available, maximum and advertised download and upload speed of
the internet access services in the case of fixed networks, or of the estimated maximum and
advertised download and upload speed of the internet access services in the case of mobile
networks, and how significant deviations from the respective advertised download and
upload speeds could impact the exercise of the end-users’ rights. Regional Broadband
complies with that obligation by the publication of its Broadband Speeds Information
document on its website;
https://regionalbroadband.ie/speedinformation.pdf
Those speeds form part of these General Terms and are the contracted speeds for your
Service.

Suspension of the Service
Regional Broadband is entitled to temporarily suspend the Services during periods of repair,
essential maintenance or alteration or improvement to the Services or otherwise in
accordance with the law.
