everreach Terms of Service

Summary

What is it? everreach is a phone service that provides you with a UK local ‘virtual’ or non-geographic national rate number (“virtual landline number”) and allows you manage your inbound calls on that number. For example, you can forward those calls to other telephone numbers on other networks, set up call menus and welcome greetings or take voicemails and send those voicemails to email (referred to in these Terms as the “everreach service”).

How much is it? You pay on a monthly subscription basis for a capped amount of minutes based on the plan that you choose. If you run out of minutes then you must upgrade to a higher plan. Your subscription will renew each month on the most recent plan that you have selected, until you cancel your subscription. Further details of plans are available on our website.

Can I change plan? You can upgrade or downgrade your plan at any time. Upgrades take effect immediately on a pro-rata basis (i.e. you will pay the difference and receive the difference in the plan for the remaining part of the month) whereas downgrades will apply from the start of your next billing month.

No long term contract: You are free to cancel the service at any time. If you cancel the service, it will end at the end of your current billing period. More details about cancelling the everreach service are set out in section 9.1 of these Terms.

What is it not? The everreach service is not a full telephone service. There are restrictions on how you can use the service. everreach allows you to receive inbound calls to your chosen virtual landline number, but there is no provision to make outbound calls using this number.

Where can I use it? everreach is only available to users in the UK, only offers certain UK numbers and there are restrictions on where the inbound calls can be redirected to. Additional details are in our FAQ.

What else should I know? Key information about the service is contained in our FAQ. You should read the website, the FAQ and these terms and conditions carefully to ensure that everreach is suitable for your purpose.

It may change: We may need to change the restrictions, features of the everreach service, and other aspects of the service from time to time. Some of these changes may impact your use of the everreach service. Where we can, we will try to tell you about major changes in advance, for example by email or on our Website.

It’s early days: everreach is a brand new service. Certain features of the everreach service may not yet be available (for example, our App), or they may be in testing or may not work reliably yet. We’d love to have you on board and we welcome your feedback on how to make the everreach service better.

Disclaimer: We can’t promise that the everreach service is free of inaccuracies, errors, bugs or interruptions. The everreach service is provided "as is" with no warranty, express or implied, of any kind. To the extent permitted by law, we expressly disclaim any and all warranties of fitness for purpose, availability, security and/or non-infringement. You use the everreach service at your own discretion and risk.

We recommend that you check that the everreach service is suitable for your use before you invest in advertising and marketing your everreach number in connection with your business. This is because we can’t be liable for the costs you incur in connection with joining or leaving the everreach service or changing your telephone number.
