The Vodafone Agents will utilise any suitable available pre-existing overhead and underground infrastructure where possible, although in certain circumstances, underground digs may be required. Where no underground ducts are available, an overhead install solution may be used between homes and/or businesses and/or from a power line, or telephone, pole onto the façade of your premises.

Fair usage

31. Vodafone operates a fair usage policy (FUP).  It is important to Vodafone that all eligible Vodafone customers are able to access our Services. Accordingly, we have devised a FUP which applies to all our Services. Vodafone may rely on this fair use policy where your usage of the Services is excessive or unreasonable as detailed in this paragraph. Vodafone has developed a threshold for the Services and the related tariffs by reference to average customer profiles and estimated customer usage of the Services (particularly the estimated volume and length of calls likely to be made and data used by end users) (the “Threshold”). If, at the absolute discretion of Vodafone, Vodafone is of the opinion, that your usage of the Services materially exceeds the Threshold over any month, Vodafone may contact you to advise you that your usage exceeds its fair use policy. If the excessive usage continues to exceed the Threshold after receipt of a request to desist from or alter the nature of such usage, Vodafone reserves the right to charge you for the excessive element of your usage at your price plan’s standard rate or to suspend, at its absolute discretion, modify or restrict your use of the Service or to withdraw your access to the Services entirely.

Available Support Levels 

VSDM is available with two levels of support. These are Standard Service and Premium Service. A customer must avail of a single tariff type on a single customer number. Customers cannot mix Standard and Premium tariffs on a single customer account number. 

Standard Service- Performance Support 

• Policies not enrolling (Polices in VSDM determines what the phone can and cannot do, if they are not enrolling correctly it means the phone is not being properly managed) 
• Devices not seen (Devices not seen, means that the VSDM platform has not seen the device for over a pre-agreed time, this can be caused by numerous issues including out of coverage, data issues, policy issues, power issues etc) 
  
• Non compliant devices (Means any device that falls outside of the pre agreed security framework for that client e.g. jailbroken device, blacklisted apps etc) 
  
• Restrictions enforced (Means all pre agreed restrictions that are to be enforced within the policies) 
  
• Hosted SaaS Portal issue, includes performance issues, slow, down (Means any issue that affects the VSDM portal) 

Premium Service 

In addition to the Standard Service Performance Support above the customer will get additional Administration support on the Premium service. 

• Lock devices (We send a command over the air to the device that causes the device to lock instantly, even if a user is using the device at the time, by locking the device it means that the user would need to re-enter their Pass-code to unlock the screen) 
• Clear & Reset Pass-codes on devices (We send a command over the air that clears the Pass-code on the device in the event a user had forgotten their Pass-code, the Pass-code will be cleared but the device will prompt the user to reset their Pass-code to as per the corporate IT policy, e.g. 4 characters long/alphanumeric etc 
  
• Wipe devices (We send a command over the air to the device that will complete wipe the device (factory reset) as if it’s just come out of the box. All data on the device will be erased. All Corporate/Personal data will be erased from the phone and once wiped the device will no longer be manageable by Vodafone until its re-enrolled again using the standard enrolment process) 
  
• Un-enrol devices (We send a command over the air which means that all corporate resources that were enabled on the device e.g. email, calendars, contacts, vpn, wi-fi etc will all be removed from the device. The users phone, once un-enrolled, will no longer be manageable by Vodafone until its re-enrolled again using the standard enrolment process). This leaves the phone as it were before it was enrolled in VSDM 
  
• Policies created, agreed and pushed out (Agree, create and push out policies that will determine what the users devices can and cannot do) 
  
• New enrolment of devices (Perform the first initial enrolment of the device so it comes under management of the VSDM platform) 
  
• New locations & groups added, modified & deleted (Locations, Groups etc determine the structure of how the business is setup and determines what users can and cannot do) 
  
• User roles added, modified & deleted (Users are created and agreed and this determines what the user can do within the VSDM portal, this can be completely restricted e.g. all they can do is lock a device right up to full admin access whereby they can perform any function within the portal) 
  
• User roles added, modified & deleted (Users are created and agreed and this determines what the user can do within the VSDM portal, this can be completely restricted e.g. all they can do is lock a device right up to full admin access whereby they can perform any function within the portal) 
  
• Batch import of devices (Batch import allows hundreds / thousands of devices to be imported via a batch csv file to be imported automatically into the VSDM platform, this reduces the manual input of data by end users during the enrolment process) 
  
• Device deletions (Devices completely removed from the system so there is no historical data on the device, this would be used for employees who have left the business) 
  

Standard customers who wish to upgrade to the Premium service must have successfully completed devices initial enrolment and setup on the Managed Mobility portal themselves otherwise they must purchase ‘initial portal service setup’. This upgrade to the premium service is for on-going maintenance and changes to the customer’s profile in situ and does not include the initial enrolment and setup which must be purchased.
