8×8 Services

Internet connectivity is critical to the performance of any Hosted telephony solution. We advise that all customers should opt for a data connection from us which is built purposefully to ensure voice is given priority.

 

If you have chosen to use your existing data connection, or a 3rd party data connection we advise you request the 3rd party access document from your sales representative. This will ensure you are aware of all configuration changes that are needed to routers and firewalls connected to your LAN.

 

Call Charges not defined on the Sales Order will be calculated as per the call tariff, which is available upon request to sales@ukitnetworks.com

 

Call Recording Storage is inclusive for 30 days as standard per license. Whilst recording your calls is not chargeable, storing them outside of your inclusive allowance is chargeable. Please ensure you subscribe to the necessary Call Recording Storage license to ensure recordings are retained for the duration you require.

 

The Provisioning Configuration Guide is required to be completed prior to installation for all new 8×8 users.

 

Number allocation is subject to a ‘single number per license’ limitation. Numbers allocated above this 1:1 ratio, International numbers, or non-geographic will be chargeable per month.

The IP Telephony Services support 999/112 emergency call services and such calls will be routed to the national emergency call handling agents. However, these services do not operate in the same way as PSTN fixed line 999/112 public emergency call services and connection to such services may not be possible in the event of a service outage caused by loss of End User connectivity to the internet for whatever reason. In such circumstances the End User should use their PSTN line to make the emergency call. Furthermore, it may on occasions not be possible for emergency services personnel to identify the End User’s location and telephone number so this information should be stated promptly and clearly by the End User when making such a call.

 

Virtual Contact Centre licences have an allocation of 4000 minutes per licence for call distribution and outbound calling. Calls outside of this bundle will incur additional costs.

 

CC X6-X8 Named User Bundled Licenses are provided on a “Named” basis, meaning each such license may only be used by one designated User. If Customer utilizes or wishes to utilize such licenses on a “Concurrent” basis, which permits up to 5 users to use a single licenses (with only one user logged in and using the service at any time), Customer accepts we have the right to increase the price for such license. If we release a SaaS service with the same functionality as X6 – X8 on a named basis, we may migrate the Customer from X6 – X8 Bundle to such SaaS Service at the same price and replace the existing license type.

Horizon Including Contact, STCM & IPDC Services

Internet connectivity is critical to the performance of any Hosted telephony or IPDC services. We advise that all customers should opt for a data connection from us which is built purposefully to ensure voice is given priority.

Ports will be made upon the first available date and cannot be brought forward. Once a date has been confirmed, cancelling and rearranging this date will incur a re-appointment charge.

Number porting has a minimum 15 working day lead time from the date correct porting information is provided to our provisioning team. Porting may take considerably longer and this lead time acts as a guide only. Where we are porting via IPEX (this would be due to having no direct porting agreements between our chosen network partner and your current supplier) no lead time can be provided and / or guaranteed.

Broadband Services

Any missed BT Openreach engineering appointments will be chargeable at £140.00 per appointment missed and £20.00 re‑appointment charge.

Fixed line broadband connections will be provided with a single static IP address.

 

The use of bandwidth which is inappropriate for a particular service is to be avoided. In the event that excessive usage of bandwidth on a consistent basis is detected we will contact you to propose a more suitable service as a replacement.

 

If you decline to accept the suggested replacement service and the excessive usage continues we reserve the right to restrict, suspend or terminate your access, at our discretion.

 

Examples of excessive bandwidth usage are:

– A circuit that uses in excess of 100GB of bandwidth in a 24 hour period

– A group of circuits (as part of the same company) that consumes bandwidth in excess of 100GB at each site on the same day(s).

 

Care levels allow you to place the importance on the service ‘fix time’ depending on your needs. We would recommend you consider the care levels depending on needs for example a small business which is reliant on data services will benefit from having ENHANCED CARE to minimise potential downtime. All of our packages include the STANDARD CARE level.
