BT will apply the above rental prices to circuits migrated from retail services on the date of migration as described in the BES Contract.
Note:
1) These prices will be applied in accordance with Section 12, of the ‘Conditions’ section of the Contract for Backhaul Extension Services.
2) A Site is assumed to be served by suitable fibre from the local exchange. All Orders taken for the provision of Backhaul Extension Services are subject to feasibility checks to ensure that service can be technically provided. BT reserves the right to charge Excess Construction Charges where necessary including in situations where suitable fibre from the local serving exchange does not exist or is deficient.
3) A fixed charge is made for each link (or “End”) from the Communications Provider’s Site or the Co-location, Netlocate or BT Locate space to the local serving exchange. An additional Main Link charge is made for each circuit, calculated on the radial distance between the local serving exchanges. Main Link charges do not apply for circuits within the same local serving exchange area.
4) Rental is payable in advance. Quarterly billing of this item is offered as standard. Monthly billing is also available upon request. A 28 day cut off period is applicable prior to the end of the standard quarterly billing cycle.
5) All days will be calculated as Working Days, i.e. ignoring weekends and public holidays. The cancellation date must be given in writing by the Communications Provider. If BT fails to meet the Contractual Delivery Date and the Communications Provider cancels the order, a charge will not be raised. The full cost of any additional work, e.g. duct, which has been specifically incurred for the order by the time of the cancellation, will be recovered in addition to the cancellation charge. Should a Communications Provider request amendments to the Contractual Delivery Date and subsequently cancel the order, the cancellation charge will be calculated on the days between the dates that the Communications Provider notified BT of the first amendment and the original Contractual Delivery Date.
6) Backhaul Extension Service 10/100/155/622/1000/2500/10000 includes the care level set out in the Service Level Agreement within tariff.
7) For Time Related Charges (applicable to Out of Hours Visits, Abortive Visits, Equipment Testing, etc.) refer to the Service Products section of the price list, can be found at: http://www.openreach.co.uk/orpg/pricing/serviceproducts.do
8) Excess Construction Charges will be raised in addition to normal Connection charges where additional infrastructure is provided to give new or extended service at a Communications Provider’s / End User’s Site or other requested location where BT would otherwise not choose to extend its network on the basis of normal commercial criteria. Excess charges apply to situations of extended reach, including provision to a new location within the Communications Provider’s / End User’s Site but does not apply to situations where existing capacity needs to be increased. There is no ‘within tariff’ allowance - the full value of any applicable charge is payable. Excess Construction Charges are detailed in the Service Products section of the price list, can be found at: http://www.openreach.co.uk/orpg/pricing/serviceproducts.do
9) Backhaul Extension Services Resilience Option 2 is now available at all bandwidths including BES Daisy chain
10) If a Communications Provider requires a non resilient circuit to be regraded to Resilient Option 2 circuit, that requires routing re-work, then a cease and re-provide has to be requested.
11) All orders submitted for migration, (whether subsequently found to be valid or invalid migration requests) are subject to the re-classification charge applicable to the bandwidth migrated.
12) Migration from the LES 2, LES 2500A & LES 10000A services is not available and there is not an equivalent service in the BES portfolio for LES 2. Migration from Previously withdrawn LES products (e.g. LES 1, LES 3, etc.) is not available)
13) Daisy chain rental prices are only applicable on circuits which are within 15Km radial distance between 2 co-location sites located in BT local serving exchanges. These locations can be the Communications Provider’s Co-location area, Netlocate space or BT Locate space.
14) Common Portfolio charges will be applied in addition to standard connection charges, if applicable.
15) Where the CP places an Order for an individual circuit to move from an existing 12 month minimum period to either a 36 or 60 month minimum period up to and within 28 calendar days of the launch of the optional increased minimum periods, the CP will be entitled to a rebate consistent with having the increased minimum period backdated to 1st June 2008 or to the date when the circuit was first installed (or upgraded to become a qualifying circuit) whichever is later.
16) The price applicable to Connection will be that price quoted as part of the Order process which will be that applicable at the date of Order placement. When prices change the new prices will only apply to new Orders received subsequent to the date that a price change applies from.
For terms and conditions applicable to these charges payable to BT see the Conditions for Wholesale Extension Services.

Backhaul Network Services is a UK network service available for 1gE & STM4 circuits/spokes. Prices for each individual BNS component are subject to a fixed period over 1, 3 & 5 years. Fixed periods apply to individual components of the BNS solution, and a BNS solution can include components with different fixed periods for example if individual spokes are added to an existing Hub/Main Link/PoP configuration part-way through their 3 or 5 year fixed period.
There is no minimum volume requirement for spokes/circuits for entry to the scheme but prices are charged as an end-to-end solution comprised of the following components and prices:
Network Components Price Variables
