2. Sites

2.1 Your Sites must be specified in your Sign Up Agreement. Our agreement to provide Services to you is conditional upon us confirming that we are able to supply Access to your Sites, and your confirmation to meet any additional costs or terms that might apply.

3. Installation

3.1 We will visit your site to conduct a Site audit prior to installation. During the Site audit we will confirm whether you are able to get the Office Net Cloud service. You must be present for this Site audit. If a Site audit cannot proceed for a reason we do not control you may be charged for a Missed Appointment.

3.2 A standard charge will apply for installations that we consider to be simple.

3.3 If we consider that any installation is not simple, our charges for that installation will be charged on a time and materials basis and we will consult with you to agree on the costs (or the basis of such costs) prior to incurring them.

3.4 Your Access will be installed first. In some cases, characteristics of your Access line(s) may mean we are unable to supply you with Office Net Cloud at a particular Site. If this occurs, we will investigate alternative access with you. In some cases we will attempt to re-activate your previous connection, but we cannot guarantee reactivation will be successful.

3.5 Once your Access is operational, we will install your Office Net Cloud Service.

4. Equipment

4.1 We will supply you with one IP desk phone or ATA switch per Fixed Line, one router per Site, and one POE switch per Site.

  • For auto-dialling, continuous call forwarding, multiple simultaneous calling or any other activity that we consider to be non-standard usage; or
  • For resupply, resale, onsale or any other supply to a third party (whether in whole or in part).

5.2 We may decline to supply you with Office Net Cloud, or suspend or terminate your Office Net Cloud service (in whole or part) if we consider that your use or a User’s use of your Office Net Cloud Service is not in accordance with paragraph 5.1 above.

5.4 Our Internet Acceptable Use Policy applies to your use of Office Net Cloud. You can find this policy on our website at one.nz, and it is updated from time to time. We may suspend your Service with immediate effect if you do not use Office Net Cloud in accordance with this policy.

7. Fixed Line Calling Services

7.1 Speed: Statements about the speed of your Fixed Line Broadband Service are based on theoretical maximums and are not guarantees of continuous speed. The actual speed that your broadband connection can achieve will depend on a number of factors which may include: your equipment (including your computer and Wi-Fi capability); your internal and external premises wiring; your Access Type; the distance of your premises from the exchange; New Zealand and overseas networks; internet traffic congestion; other environmental factors; how many other people are using it at the time.

7.2 Performance: Your Access to your Fixed Line Broadband Service and the available bandwidth is shared with other broadband users. The performance of your Fixed Line Broadband Service may vary from time to time where there is above average broadband traffic over the network.

7.3 Tuning: changes in the environment impacting on our network and your premises can alter the electrical interference encountered, and cause unwelcome error rates or even instability. Because of this, we may tune your Fixed Line Broadband Service on a regular basis. The speed and performance of your Fixed Line Broadband Service may change as a result of these environmental changes and our tuning of the Service.
