3. c) airtime from a mobile network service provider for GPRS/GSM Handsets only (“Airtime Service”). Loss or damage to any SIM card provided by the company will result in a charge of £128.00 being taken from the deposit.

1.2 You may purchase the Handset directly from us or by completing and returning the purchase hire agreement (“Hire Agreement”). If you opt to lease the handset, You agree to be bound by the terms of the Hire Agreement and any breach of the Hire Agreement shall be considered a breach of this Agreement.

1.2 a) If you opt for a long term lease agreement on a POS or credit card machine and the customer or business 1) fall into arrears 2) cancels the direct debit during the agreement without our prior consent 3) changes bank account without notifying us 4) liquidates/dissolves their company 5) other situation – which results in the account being neglected, they will be liable for any outstanding monies owed on the account and/or will incur a final settlement figure from our funding partner. If the customer ignores this or fails to pay this, legal proceedings will commence and additional charges may apply which the customer will be liable for.

1.2 b) We try and contact all customers towards the end of their long term lease agreement(s) however in some cases this isn’t always possible. In the event a customer doesn’t notify us of wanting to end their lease agreement, their account will automatically enter secondary terms which means the customer will need to provide us (in writing) confirmation of their desire to end their long term lease agreement. We request all correspondence is sent via email (not postal) and once this has been acknowledged the account will automatically enter the 30 day notice period.

1.3  The price for the initial set up (“Set-up Cost”), Handset, or the monthly rental cost for the Handset and minimum term for the Hire Agreement (as may apply) (“Handset Costs”), accessories and the Airtime Service monthly cost (“Airtime Cost””) (if applicable) are set out in the Order. The Handset Costs include the Guaranteed Replacement Service for the duration of this Agreement.

1.4 For the Airtime Cost (if the customer opts to purchase the card machine or hardware outright), we request payment to be set up by direct debit for the SIM card before the handset is deployed. Failure to make payment for the SIM card at any point may result in the handset before cut off.

1.5 The Airtime Cost is based on a “reasonable use” number of transactions, should you consistently conduct a high number of transactions we reserve the right to increase the Airtime Cost to reflect your actual level of usage. Failure to agree to this may result in the SIM being cut off.

1.6 When we receive Your Order We shall share such information as is relevant with specified third parties solely for the purpose of performing necessary checks and for provision of the Services (i.e. submitting the subsequent log-on to the relevant merchant acquirer). In signing the Order You hereby consent to your details being used for such purposes.

1.7 On acceptance of Your Order by Us, We agree to supply the Services to You for the duration of this Agreement. You have 7 days (including weekends) prior to the date of deployment to cancel any subsequent booking(s), after which time no order may be cancelled unless agreed by Us in writing and subject to You paying Us a £25 admin fee and 50% of your total point of sale rental which includes all hire purchases (the fee excludes postage). Wireless Terminal Solutions cannot be held responsible for any information that the customer completes incorrectly on any rental form(s) which is either a) incorrect b) does not correspond with the merchant acquirer’s system. If this results in the applicant’s terminal being delayed, additional charges for same day delivery or AM delivery request will be at the customer’s expense. We request that all invoices are paid seven working days before deployment. Failure to do so may result in your terminal being delayed which we cannot be held responsible for. Ad hoc charges or charges relating to an extension on an existing order – payment needs to be made within 7 days. If payment has been made by BACS we would request remittance to be sent to info@wirelessterminalsolutions.co.uk accounts@wirelessterminalsolutions.co.uk stating the order details.

1.8 You acknowledge that as a business to business transaction you have no rights for returns or cancellations under the Consumer Protection (Distance Selling) Regulations 2000. You are responsible for checking the handset(s) meets your requirements, and there is adequate mobile network coverage in the areas in which you plan to use the handset (in some instances we shall inform you of which network provider is being used and alternatives that may be available).

1.9 All handsets will be fully operational prior to dispatch, we cannot be held responsible for a terminal failing to poll. Situations like this are unforeseen and are beyond our control. We as a company cannot be held responsible and shall remain exempt from all handset issues that arise whilst in the customer’s possession and this extends to all levels of connectivity which may materialise in any of our handset models which result in lost sales. As a company we aim to supply contactless terminals wherever possible, however this is subject to availability, and this will still be deemed a completed order once in the customer possession.

1.9 a) Wireless Terminal Solutions require a minimum of 10 working days’ notice to fulfil any orders. In the event of late bookings being accepted by us; all information stated on the application form, must be correct in order to correspond with the bank’s system. We cannot be held responsible for errors made by either a) the customer on the application form b) the acquiring bank in getting the handset logged on that may defer in the customer receiving their handset. In the instance of an acquiring bank “logging off” a handset(s) in error or the MAC Keys being in the wrong range at the acquirer’s end if the customer requests compensation, they must take up an internal investigation with the merchant acquirer.

1.9 b) With portable card machines/countertop card machines we are not obliged to include any network cabling. We solely look to supply the hardware/card machine and cannot be held responsible for any loss of earnings.

1.9 c) All POS devices that connect using Wi-Fi are rigorously checked before deployment, and it is normally company policy to review the hardware internally (upon its return) before we confirm our findings. If no fault is found with the hardware then no compensation will be offered. A Wi-Fi infrastructure is beyond our control and we have no responsibility towards this or any instances where the hardware fails to connect.

1.9 d) We advise customers who are using a Wi-Fi or portable Bluetooth connection to test the infrastructure ahead of the event, and in the event of any problems to contact us at their earliest convenience.

1.9 e) In instances where a customer is attending an event/exhibition or similar setting and the Wi-Fi/Bluetooth connection is supplied externally by a third party supplier, we have no control over their infrastructure or setup (some Wi-Fi companies will use their own bespoke network creating a hotspot or unique login). All payment hardware will be configured in accordance to the customer’s request as per the paperwork before deployment.  In instances where customers encounter connectivity issues to a network we abdicate responsibility.

2) Your Responsibilities

Assisting In Service Delivery

1. You agree to assist “Us” (Wireless Terminal Solutions) as far as reasonably possible in providing the Services to You, including but not limited to; ensuring accuracy of information You provide to Us; ensuring someone is available for delivery or collection of the Handset; carrying out tests or checks on the Handset as directed by Us; or replacement of SIM cards as directed by US.

Care of The Handset

2.1The risk in the handset transfers to you on delivery and you shall be responsible for the insurance and safekeeping of the Handset and all equipment relating to it. The Guaranteed Replacement Service does not cover loss of or damage to the handset and you will be responsible for the costs of repair or replacement in such cases. This will be deducted from the deposit, or if a deposit is not in place, the customer will be invoiced accordingly. You agree that the terminal or product sent out by courier company will be sent to the address supplied on the application form. If another “contact” address is provided, the customer will be liable for any damage in transit or failure of delivery. Additional charges may occur for this privilege (to be deducted from deposit).

2.1 a) We politely request all customers avoid defacing any card machine/POS equipment in any way. This includes putting stickers or anything similar that may cause imperfection to the visibility to the equipment. In the event of this happening a charge of £10 per terminal (exc. VAT) will be added to your account. This figure is based on the time and expense our staff will have to incur to clean and remedy them for their next rental.

2.2 If a customer loses or has their handset/POS equipment stolen (or they do not return their handset) they will be liable for a charge of £499 per handset. This price is exclusive of VAT, and we request that payment is made in 14 days. Failure to do so will result in it being passed to a debt recovery agent who will manage the case on our behalf. Additional costs may then be added to your account which the customer will be liable for. If a card machine, POS or other hardware item goes missing after a 14 day period the hardware will be cut off from our internal system, and the equipment will no longer be able to be used. If your card machine, POS or other hardware item is located or retrieved outside of the 14 day window and payment has been made, the cost for replacement equipment will still apply as the original equipment will no longer be able to be used. Under no circumstances will we be able to offer a refund.

2.2 a) Alert Irruptions – ‘Alert Irruption’ means the terminal can no longer be used to accept transactions. Within the innards of the card device, sits an anti-tamper proof device, if the card terminal feels it is being tampered with or if the terminal suffers a hard impact, the anti-tamper proof device will trigger and shut the terminal down. In this eventuality the terminal will need to be sent back to the manufacturer for repair. Customers who encounter alert irruption are liable for a charge of £150 (exc. VAT) to have the handset remedied. Payment is required before technical intervention can assist with the matter.

2.2 b) Swap out facility – Customers who receive a replacement handset from Wireless Terminal Solutions must be aware we collect the faulty handset(s) the day after the new handset has arrived. In most cases this will be explained to the customer in advance. In the event of the handset not being returned/collected as agreed, a daily charge of £20+ VAT will be applied to your account, and may result in the replacement handset being cut off until your account is clear. We request that customers who return handsets to Wireless Terminal Solutions always use recorded delivery albeit through a courier or Royal Mail. Should the handset not be returned, a fee of £499 (exc. VAT) will be added to your account and payment required within 14 days.

2.3 If you (the customer) have opted and paid for our collection service please email logistics@wirelessterminalsolutions.co.uk confirming you will be available on the collection date of which you have entered on the form & between 9.00am-5.30pm. Someone will need to be present to hand the collection over. It is the customer’s responsibility to hand over the correct parcel to the couriers. If the wrong parcel has been handed over, the customer will be liable for any charges.

Alternatively please contact our office on 020 8669 2103 (Option 4 – Dispatch) to confirm you are available on the collection date.

We will need:

• Your mobile number & email address
• Collection address
• Specific instructions for the driver (if any)

Please be aware that the collection agent may sometimes quote they are collecting a parcel on behalf of a courier company rather than Wireless Terminal Solutions.

ALL PACKAGES MUST BE IN ONE BOX UPON RETURN AS OUR COURIERS ARE ONLY INSTRUCTED TO PICK UP ONE PARCEL, ANY MORE THAN ONE THE CUSTOMER WILL BE CHARGED.

Please ensure you pack the package carefully in the pack provided so that no damages occur. It is also important to ensure your order is returned in one package/box. Any orders returned in more than 1 box will be subject to additional courier charges. Missed collections will also result in a £10 nothing to collect charge.

For customers returning their order themselves please ensure it is returned Royal Mail Special delivery so that it reaches us the next day. You will also need to email us on the ‘Collection Date’ outlined above to confirm postage and also provide us with any tracking information.

We must remind you that for each day after your collection date there will be a fee of £20 per terminal per day + VAT if collection is not arranged. The customer will be liable for any handsets that have failed collections/ nothing to collect.

It is the customer’s responsibility to make contact with Wireless Terminal Solutions to arrange collection (please refer to 2.4 for late charges).

2.3:1 If a customer is returning a handset or POS equipment to Wireless Terminal Solutions we advise that you use a method that includes signature on delivery, and your parcel is covered for loss or damage of up to £500 per handset or EPOS unit. It will be the customer’s responsibility to monitor the tracking, and any parcels held or lost are down to their (the customer) responsibility to follow up with the designated courier company used. If equipment goes “missing” or is constituted as “lost” a charge (please refer to 2.2 for charges) will automatically be added to your account and the customer will be invoiced for the lost equipment and payment due in 7 days. Failure to do so will result in this being passed across to our debt recovery team which may result in additional fees being added to your account.

2.4 If the handset fails to be collected on the “due” finished date, as stated in the application form from the client, an additional cost of £20 per day + VAT per terminal will be added to your account, until the handset arrives back to our registered address. These charges will be added to the customer’s final bill. In addition, the handset must be returned in the way in which it was supplied i.e. boxed with a manual/bagged with the relevant return envelope, failure to do so will result in an additional charge on the goods condition. The handset remains the customer’s responsibility until it is returned into our possession. Any damage that occurs in transit will be charged to the customer account.

2.4 a) We advise all customers to inspect and check their handsets within 6 hours of delivery and to notify us of any problems immediately. Failure to do so may result in the customer breaching our terms and conditions, and as a result may forfeit any right for a partial or full refund in cases where customers then experience issues with the POS equipment. Failure to contact us may also see a delay in any subsequent replacement equipment being sent out and customers may be liable for logistics costs. All items are inspected and rigorously checked before deployment.  As with standard courier practice, you should check the contents of the consignment upon arrival, and notify us immediately of any issues, especially if the parcel has been opened or tampered with.

2.4 b) Any damage must be reported to Wireless Terminal Solutions within 6 hours of signing for the item, if the office is shut then an email must be sent to info@wirelessterminalsolutions.co.uk notifying us of the issue. If someone else is signing on your behalf they must be made aware of the above. If the handset or POS equipment or any part relating to it is damaged, and you have failed to make any attempt to contact Wireless Terminal Solutions we cannot be held responsible, and the customer will be liable for any subsequent costs. This also applies for collections on any equipment that is being returned to us.

2.4 c) We are not responsible for shipping delays caused by our chosen or preferred couriers, this also applies to same day deliveries.

2.4 d) We will ship according to the shipping address you’ve provided on any completion forms; please notify us of any address change before your order is marked “Shipped” to avoid parcel loss, for which we will not take responsibility. We need any change of address in writing by email to info@wirelessterminalsolutions.co.uk stating the company name 48 hours before deployment. If any address change falls under this time constraint, we cannot be held responsible for any errors that may occur.

2.4 e) In the event that any “Unclaimed”, “Refused”, or “Return to Sender” package is shipped back to us—due to, but not limited to, reasons such as failure to sign for it, not picking it up at the local post office, refusal to accept the package—we will notify you upon receipt of the returned package. In either case, we will open the package for inspection of possible damages caused during transit or storage at your local post office during the retention period.

Once a terminal has been dispatched or deployed the term of agreement for the short term rental is non-negotiable. For instances where customers encounter courier delays or change their mind, they will still be liable for the full rental cost unless agreed with Wireless Terminal Solutions. In this instance we request customers to email us explaining their reasons.

2.4 f) If any documents including short term hire/long term hire are not completed properly by the customer (to the extent merchant numbers are missing/or incorrect, we cannot be held responsible in any delays rectifying the situation. It is the customer’s responsibility to provide completed forms with all the necessary accurate information.

This also extends to additional merchant numbers (such as AMEX etc.) that are provided at a later date on individual emails to members of the team, or change of addresses for delivery/collection. In instances such as this, we request a minimum of 7 days working notice. If requests are made which fall under this timescale, we relinquish any responsibility for problems encountered.

You shall provide WTS with copies of the relevant insurance policies upon request.

Subject to the customer paying Wireless Terminal Solutions the applicable Charges, We may arrange insurance cover which covers accidental damage of the handset(s) if the customer selects this option. This does not cover theft or loss.

Any subsequent Payment Terminal(s) or Equipment supplied as a replacement will not be covered by your original hire insurance cover and the customer will be required to obtain insurance cover as required.

The silicon cases which come as an optional extra against each rental agreement can protect a handset against any spillages, knocks and germs, but won’t necessarily prevent a handset from incurring an alert irruption or breakages.

Wireless Terminal Solutions cannot be held responsible for firewalls which block or hinder a connection, and have no responsibility relating to the privacy or security of your activities on your Wi-Fi network.
