2.2. HUGE shall not be liable for any loss suffered as a result of the Customer’s failure to provide accurate information or any relevant facilities, which may lead to a delay in installation or service repair.

3. Access circuits

3.1. The Customer must order (or upgrade where necessary), and retain for the duration of the Service the HUGE internet service (referred to as the “IP service”) for the Customer sites for which the Service is ordered.
3.2. Unless otherwise agreed with Customer in writing HUGE orders, configures and tests the Access Circuit on behalf of Customer through an agency letter that the Customer provides to HUGE. Should the Customer provide the Customer Equipment to connect its network to the Service Equipment, then the
Customer must ensure compatibility with the Service Equipment.

3.3.1. Due to the nature of best effort access circuits / services, the Service can suffer from reduced call quality.
