Consumer Codes of Practice

Purpose of this Code of Practice

The Code informs you about our products, services, and customer care policies.
We have prepared it in line with guidance published by Ofcom on 15 August 2003.

 

Our commitment to you

Whilst we may not provide all the component parts of our services ourselves we will liaise with our suppliers to ensure that any problems with their services are resolved promptly.

We are committed to providing you with the highest quality of customer service. When we purchase our services from wholesale provider(s), we choose those providers carefully to ensure that you get a high quality service. We make every reasonable effort to supply services that satisfy your requirements. We work to all relevant laws and regulations.

Price and Tariffs

Because there are so many different rates that depend upon usage volumes and other separately negotiated criteria, and the changes in tariffs are being updated constantly, it is not possible to publish a standard set of rates that would apply to all customers.

Your own particular tariff can be obtained by emailing our Customer Relations Team on support@acornvoice.co.uk

Faults and Repairs

If you experience a fault with any of our services please call our Customer Service Team on 0207 643 5900. Details of our fault handling procedure can be found here.

Compensation and Refunds

Our service provision to you is dependent upon the continued operation of the major networks, in particular Openreach. If service is lost for any reason we will claim compensation on your behalf at the scales appropriate to your particular network.

Billing

Bills are usually sent on a monthly basis, but we may send you a bill at any time. Terms of payment will be detailed in our terms and conditions. Payment will be collected either by direct debit, cheque or BACS. If you wish to change your method of payment at any time, please contact our Accounts Department on 0207 643 5900.

If you have difficulty paying your bill, please contact our Accounts Department on 0207 643 5900 and we will try to arrange a different method of payment. We will do all we can to help our customers to manage their bills and avoid disconnection.

Data protection

We are registered with the Data Protection Agency to hold information necessary to supply services to our customers.

Marketing

We work to the principles within the British Code of Advertising, Sales Promotion and Direct Marketing, which may be found on the website, www.acornvoice.co.uk We also maintain compliance with OFCOM’s General Condition 23.
