* Can be upgraded to 2 x 10Gb wavelengths, without a site visit. 

 1 Different Early termination charges apply - See 84 month and New 60 month mininum period OSA Filter Connect early termination charge section. 

 2 Customers already consuming OSA Filter Connect on the original 60 month term pricing, can opt to migrate to the new 60 month term variant, without a charge or term extension. If you wish to do this please contact your sales and relationship manager. 

OSA Filter Connect FSP3000 base build customisation options - only available at time of initial install of base build. Prices shown below are incremental to base build options shown above.  

Note:

The percentages above refer to how much of that year's rental is payable in the event the circuit is terminated before that year's rental has been paid. 

This policy applies to both circuit rental and main link rental.

So for example if a CP was on a seven year term paying a total annual rental of £3,850, if they terminated their circuit after five years, they would pay:

•50% of year six’s rental (50% x £3,850 = £1,925), and

•40% of year seven’s rental (40% x £3,850 = £1,540). 

The table above applies to OSA circuits with an 84 month minimum period for Orders placed following the operative date.  It also applies to OSA circuits with the New 60 month minimum period, otherwise for existing circuits the provisions of the Connectivity Services Contract conditions apply.   

Upgrades from OSA FSP3000 to OSA Filter Connect FSP3000

Subject to a standard OSA Filter Connect Site Visit charge (see below), Openreach will convert an existing OSA FSP3000 to OSA Filter Connect FSP3000.

This will re-use the existing installed FSP3000 equipment and map it to the customized Filter Connect options as listed above (minus the listed connection charges).

Additional OSA Filter Connect FSP3000 components can be purchased at the prices listed above and installed during the conversion visit.

Any components not covered by the pricing above will continue to be charged at prevailing rates (and be subject to the same term).

Minimum Term will be the longest of the term remaining on the existing OSA FSP3000 Service or that selected on the new OSA Filter Connect FSP3000 Service. 

 1 Different Early termination charges apply - See 84 month and New 60 month minninum period OSA Filter Connect early termination charge section

2 Customers already consuming OSA Filter Connect on the original 60 month term pricing, can opt to migrate to the new 60 month term variant, without a charge or term extension. If you wish to do this please contact your sales and relationship manager 

OSA Filter Connect XG210 base build customisation options - only available at time of initial install of base build. Prices shown below are incremental to base build options shown above.   

Note:

The percentages above refer to how much of that year's rental is payable in the event the circuit is terminated before that year's rental has been paid. 

This policy applies to both circuit rental and mainlink rental. 

For example if a CP was on a seven year term paying a total annual rental of £3,850, if they terminated their circuit after five years, they would pay:

Note:

OSA FSP3000 Equipment Installation - Abortive Visit Charge is applicable when a CP has agreed to a booked installation appointment for an Openreach approved contractors to install and commision the OSA service. The charge is applicable if appointment is cancelled within 48 hours of appointment date for any reason, no access is gained or if on the date of installation the site is not ready due to cabinet, rack or any power issues. Charges will be levied by an adjustment to the connection charge.

As detailed in Note 6. for all other Abortive Visits charges will be raised as described in the  Service Products section of the price list, which can be found at:
http://www.openreach.co.uk/orpg/pricing/serviceproducts.do

Note:

Rework of any physical work that has been undertaken and completed to the original rack location requested by the customer.

Note:

NB: An upfront survey will be required to assess how many OSA P2P circuits can be migrated to spokes in any one visit. The survey will access the complexity of the migrations taking into account how many and what type of wavelengths cards are being migrated from a P2P to a spoke.

Optical Assist Terms

The relevant terms and conditions for those services are those set out in the Connectivity Services Contract (CSC) and Project Services Agreement (PSC) and the following amends those terms.

Optical Assist is only available on a maximum of 5 bearer circuits in the entire customer estate.

Spread CSC connection charge

The CSC requires you to pay an initial connection charge in a single payment for the service.

Optical assist allows you to pay the connection charge over the first 12 months in equal monthly instalments. This is the case irrespective of whether the circuit(s) are for a 1, 3 or 5 year minimum period.

Spread Project Services charge

Under the PSA, Project Services are invoiced as a single payment.

Optical assist allows you to pay the connection charge over the first 12 months in equal monthly instalments. This is the case irrespective of whether the circuit(s) are for a 1, 3 or 5 year minimum period.

Note:

Notes:

1) These prices will be applied in accordance with Section 12, of the ‘Conditions’ section of Connectivity Service Contract. Further information on Openreach’s Optical Spectrum Access pricing can be found on the product website.

2) All Orders taken for the provision of Optical Spectrum Access 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 situations where suitable fibre from the local serving exchange does not exist or is deficient.

3) A fixed charge is made for each Bearer and associated wavelengths. 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 or bank holidays in the Territory. 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 cancels 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) 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

7) 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 remote Site or other requested location where BT would otherwise not choose to extend its network on the basis of normal commercial criteria. Excess Construction Charges apply to situations of extended reach, including provision to a new location, but do 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

8) Service Product charges will be applied in addition to standard connection charges, if applicable.

9) In briefing ETH 0046: Available 24/10/12 – 31.12.12, a new price point for OSA was notified of 8% rental reduction for CP’s registering by 31.12.12 and subsequently achieving 20 bearers within 24 months. Note: The registration period for this offer has now passed, and is not being extended.

10) FlexZone is as defined at www.openreach.co.uk/Flexzone

11) 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.

12) OSA orders placed for the purpose of connecting Fibre to the Premise (FTTP) aggregation nodes connecting multiple houses or business premises will be subject to a supplementary rental charge, which will apply in addition to the standard product rental charges. The Communications Provider is required to self-certify orders for this use case by including "FTTP aggregation" in the Customer Requirements Form (CRF) Additional Information sheet notes field when the order is placed. Openreach will periodically audit details on circuits and will seek clarification of the use case of circuits as necessary.  Where it is confirmed that circuits are being used for FTTP aggregation but were not self-certified at order entry, the supplementary charge will be applied from the point of confirmation, and the Communications Provider will be retrospectively charged the supplementary rental back to the date of provision, for orders placed from 01/01/2021.

Note:

The pricing that was the 19+ volume tier effective from 01/04/2013 to 31/08/2016 was replaced by the standard pricing effective from 01/09/2016, which can be seen in the tables above.

Note:

The pricing that was the 19+ volume tier effective from 01/04/2013 to 31/08/2016 was replaced by the standard pricing effective from 01/09/2016, which can be seen in the tables above.

Note:

The following pricing rules apply to the discount scheme prices documented above in the OSS section of the Openreach Price List :

Where reference is made to “circuits” this means “bearers”.

1.       The CP may request, and Openreach may agree, to a particular number of circuits with a maximum 24 month period order and delivery plan and the discount prices for that number from day 1 for correctly placed orders (which do not subsequently suffer from CP delays). Details of such discount prices and committed number of circuits are shown in the tables above.

2.       For paragraph 1 above to apply, the CP and Openreach will need to agree an order and delivery plan with quarterly milestones.  If the CP misses a milestone, the discounted prices revert back to standard pricing for all circuits subject to paragraph 4 below, from the date the milestone is missed until they have caught up with the order and delivery plan.  The CP will receive the agreed discount from the date of meeting the milestone.

3.       Once the CP hits the next discount threshold for bearers, they will automatically receive the higher discount rate for all future incremental circuits (bearers and wavelengths) at that threshold from that date going forward.  For example, once the CP hits 100, they will receive the 100+ discount for all incremental circuits from 100 up to 199 circuits (i.e. circuits 1-99 do not receive the 100+ rate).

Note: this discount does not apply to the Adva visit charge

4.       At the end of the order and delivery plan period, the CP will be given a grace period (30 calendar days) to place the required number of circuit orders if they have not done so.  If they then achieve it, they will receive the agreed discount going forward from that date.

5.       If at the end of the grace period the CP has not placed the required number of circuit orders they will revert to the appropriate lower discount threshold identified in the tables above for the incremental number of circuits ordered. If this occurs Openreach will be entitled to recover from the CP any connection or rental charge discount already provided to the CP for the higher discount threshold.

 6.       Once the CP has hit the agreed number of circuits they have committed to, they must maintain a minimum of 90% of that threshold for the duration of the discount Minimum Period. The CP can cancel existing circuits (with appropriate cancellation costs applicable) and order new circuits as long as they maintain the 90% threshold.

7.       If the CP falls below the 90% threshold for the discount threshold committed to, or the CP falls below a discount threshold where it has not committed to an order and delivery plan, then the CP’s discount will fall back to the discount threshold immediately below or if on the lower tier pricing will revert to standard pricing.

8.       FlexZone (or WECLA) circuits can count towards a CP’s commitment unless agreed otherwise with the CP as part of a separate agreement for circuits in FlexZone.

9.   Openreach reserves the right to change the charges for some or all of the circuits as detailed in the Connectivity Services Contract.

10.   The Connectivity Contract applies as amended for OSS non-FlexZone by these pricing rules which will apply.

11.  For the 750 circuit discount price offering:  A standard pricing letter will apply to the 750 circuit discount price offering which will contain (i) standardised CP order commitment details and (ii) a CP commitment to circuits taken into service.

12. For EAD 10mbit, 100Mbit and 1Gbit services, early termination charges will be waived on circuits upgrading to Optical Spectrum services on a one-for-one basis, provided that an equivalent or greater term commitment is made on the new Optical service.

Note:

Terms On Application (TOA)

1. The volume discount tiers apply to rental charges of specific 40G and 100G wavelength cards on new and eligible OSEA 6500 orders, taken on a 5-year minimum period.
2. The two discount tiers will be offered to CPs committing to achieve one of two corresponding tiers of ‘credits’ within a 2-year period, for minimum commitments of 450 and 850 credits respectively.
3. Each 10Gb, 40Gb and 100Gb wavelength purchased will attract a ‘credit’ value based on the network interface employed, where 10Gb = 1 credit, 40Gb = 4 credits and 100Gb = 10 credits.
4. The scheme is offered on an individual CP basis for installs over a 24-month period from the date each CP signs a standard pricing letter committing to a minimum volume roll-out.
5. If a CP fails to meet the committed roll-out, the discount applied to the billing account will be adjusted to a lower tier discount (if the CP has achieved levels for that level) and any excess discounts will be recovered. If the CP has not achieved the volume commitment, the discounts will be recovered.
6. Wavelengths provided on separate bearers or provided over a single bearer will equally attract a credit, i.e. subsequent wavelength in-fills will count towards the credit basket. This includes additional wavelengths purchased as in-fills on pre-existing bearers during the 2 year period.
7. Installed wavelengths cannot gain retrospective credits however any wavelengths that were ordered yet not delivered before the signing of the two-year agreement can count towards the credit basket.
8. The scheme will be made available nationwide. However, pricing in FlexZone will still be on a ‘terms on Application’ basis. Openreach will decide on a case-by-case basis whether FlexZone circuits will attract the same discount.
9. All orders under this scheme are subject to the terms of the Connectivity Services Contract.
10. Customers must be established to order Optical products.
11. These discounts will count from the point of installation.
12. All other service cards, whilst counting towards to overall commitment, will not attract a rental discount.
13. Discounts apply to qualifying wavelength card rental charges only – any other associated charges do not attract a discount.
14. Current OSEA connection price offers can be used in conjunction with this discount scheme, unless otherwise stated.
15. Normal circuit cancellation and early termination charges apply; cancellation charges will be raised at full connection price.
16. This scheme acts independently from the OSA volume discount scheme.
