Where we need to install equipment at your premises, we will make every effort to fit the equipment where you prefer. However, this may not be possible because of technical or other reasons. If this is the case, we will connect the equipment as we see fit. If you request alternative locations or cable runs additional charges will be applied. Please do not move any equipment. Should you wish to alter the routing of any existing equipment such as cables or wall sockets, you should contact us.

Where we do not need to install equipment at your premises, we will either send you all the equipment you need to connect to the services, or advise you of any additional equipment you need. If applicable, it is your responsibility to purchase the additional equipment as notified to you. We will not be responsible for the operation, technical support or configuration of equipment not installed by us. We will not be liable to you for any loss or damage caused by your installation of the equipment or additional equipment.
