The Handset Costs include the Guaranteed Replacement Service for the duration of this Agreement.
1.4 The Airtime Cost (if the card machine is purchased outright) will be fixed for 12 months from the delivery of the Handset. Thereafter, we may increase the Airtime Cost should the mobile network service provider increase the cost to us.
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.
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 the 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 exclude 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 two working days before deployment. Failure to do so may result in your terminal being delayed which we cannot be held responsible for.
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, all information stated on the application form, must be correct in order to correspond with the banks 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
2 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.
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 off 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 have to clean and remedy them for their next rental.
2.2 If you lose, have your handset stolen or do not return your handset you 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.
2.2 a) Alert Irruptions – ‘Alert Irruption’ means the terminal can 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.

These charges will be added to the customers’ 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 additional charge on the goods condition. The handset remains the customers’ responsibility until it is returned into our possession. Any damage that occurs in transit will be charged to the customer account.

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.
