General terms
The installation and activation fees are prescribed by the last-mile provider, not Telecloud. Although we endeavor to keep our coverage data as accurate as possible, we are reliant on the maps provided to us by our last-mile partners, which may sometimes have slight inaccuracies.

Cancellation process
Should you wish to cancel your LTE package, you will have to send a cancelation email to support@telecloud.co.za stating that you would like to cancel your service. The cancellation will take a month to finalize, in that month the service will still be active and will therefore need to be paid for.

Shaping and prioritization
There are no usage thresholds so you can use as much data as you like, whenever you like. No throttling or shaping will be applied.

Installation, cabling and lead times
The installation fee includes cabling up to 30 meters. If your installation requires additional cabling, a site survey will be done, after which you will receive a quote from the applicable last-mile provider. Should you choose to proceed, you will be liable for any additional costs incurred. The additional cabling is directly payable to the applicable last-mile provider.
