1. General

I. These are our business inclusive minute tariff terms (“Business Inclusive Minute Tariff Terms”) for business customers from 15 June 2017. They’ll apply to you if you have signed up to one of these tariffs, upgraded your phone and signed up for a new minimum term or changed the tariff you’re on (or elements of it) at any time on or after 15 June 2017.

II. If you haven’t done one of these things, the tariff terms when you signed up, last upgraded or changed your tariff will still apply until you do or until we contact you to tell you otherwise. These terms are in addition to your contract, which can be found at www.o2.co.uk/termsandconditions/business (“Business Contract”). 

III. In these terms, "you" means you the Customer, and "your" shall be interpreted accordingly, while "we", "our", "us" or "O2" means Telefónica UK Ltd.

IV. These terms relate to the following Business Inclusive Minute Tariffs (the “Tariffs”):

a. Small Biz tariffs – handset inclusive and SIM Only; and

b. Business Essentials tariffs. C. Business tariffs – handset inclusive and SIM Only

V. Business Essentials tariffs are also subject to bespoke terms and conditions. They can be found at http://www.o2.co.uk/termsandconditions/business.

VI. Connection to any of the Tariffs may be subject to status, credit-check, fraud check, affordability assessment and the terms of a 12, 24 or 36 month Minimum Period (as defined in your Business Contract).

VII. If you have subscribed to the 30 day SIM Only plans (SIM only plans with no Minimum Period) you may give us written notice that you wish to end your 30 day SIM Only plan contract or change plan at any time, and this will be effective 30 days after we receive your notice. You will be required to pay the applicable monthly charge for your SIM Only plan until the end of this 30 day notice period. SIM Only plans with a Minimum Period are  subject to the same terms as the Tariffs save in respect of any device/equipment related provisions. Device upgrades are not available on SIM Only plans.

VIII. If you take a SIM Only plan, your current device may be latched/locked to another network and you may need to obtain an unlatching/unlocking code from your current network operator and service provider. This code is not the same as your PIN code. Failure to enter the correct unlatching code may result in your mobile phone becoming permanently blocked. We accept no responsibility for devices blocked in this way or for any costs incurred in the provision of this code.

IX. Unless otherwise stated, call prices exclude VAT, are quoted by the minute, and after the first minute are charged in one second increments. Each call is charged excluding VAT and then rounded-up to the nearest penny.

X. In addition to the terms of your Business Contract, for your device/equipment supplied from 15 June 2017 with one of the Tariffs we warrant that the device/equipment will conform in all material respects to the manufacturer’s specification from the date on which it is dispatched to you for 12 months or for the duration of your Minimum Period, whichever is longer, up to a total maximum warranty period of 24 months (but in the case of software 90 days). Some devices/equipment, including the Apple iPhone, is expressly excluded from this extended warranty period.

XI. To access O2’s data services your device/equipment must be data compatible and enabled. Access to data services is subject to network coverage.

XII. Prices are correct at time of going to print but are subject to change.

XIII. Customers taking E Care and E Billing plans must maintain an email account.

XVI. Any unused inclusive minutes rollover until the next month only.

XVII. In the event of a change of tariff, any unused inclusive minutes, messages and data will be lost.

XVIII. O2 may charge more for calls or suspend the service if O2 reasonably believes that the service is being used for call forwarding services, onward calling services, numbers that pay a revenue share or premium rate, directory enquiries numbers where special charges apply or if you breach our Fair Usage Policy.
