GEA Product – Special Offer

The “Special Offer” will apply to firm orders for GEA-FTTP (Greenfield) at Ebbsfleet.

The Special Offer is to apply from 1st April 2010 and is applicable to the assured and non-assured product variants:

The first 2,000 new GEA-FTTP (Greenfield) connections to be zero-priced (up to a maximum of 750 for any single CP GEA-FTTP (Greenfield) customer of Openreach) for connections made until 30 June 2011;

Zero rental prices for all GEA product variants for all CPs until 30 June 2011

The Special Offer does not apply to the GEA Cablelink product, which will be chargeable at the rate shown above.

Special Offer terms and conditions

The Special Offer and the deployment of New Build FTTP generally are to remain entirely within the discretion of Openreach on the basis of any relevant regulatory, legal, technical, financial or other considerations. Nothing in relation to this Special Offer should be taken as a warranty or assurance that New Build FTTP will be deployed in a particular location, or at all. Openreach reserves the right to withdraw or limit the scope of this Special Offer at any time.

A single CP (GEA-FTTP (Greenfield) Openreach customer) will only be entitled to free connection in respect of a maximum of the first 750 new provisions out of the total of 2,000 new provisions available under the Special Offer, irrespective of whether that CP purchases the product for its own consumption or intends to resell the product to other CPs.

The Special Offer will be extended to include other New Build Sites in the UK to which Openreach decides are suitable for FTTP to be deployed (which together with Ebbsfleet, shall be known as “Offer Locations”). The Special Offer will be available in respect of new Offer Locations from the date of inclusion of the relevant Offer Location for the first 2,000 orders across all Offer Locations on a first come first served basis. The Special Offer will be available in respect of those Offer Locations from the date of inclusion of the relevant Offer Location until the Special Offer expiry date of 30 June 2011.

Disclosure of Offer Locations in addition to Ebbsfleet to be included in the Special Offer will be notified as and when launch plans are finalised.

The Special Offer is subject to the terms and conditions of service. In the event of any inconsistency between those terms and conditions of service and the terms and conditions of this Special Offer, the terms and conditions of service will prevail.
