Customers may have rights under the Customer Service Guarantee Standard (CSG Standard) made under the Telecommunications (Consumer Protection and Service Standards) Act 1999.

The CSG Standard specifies timeframes for the connection of services, the repair of faults and the making and keeping of appointments. This applies to the standard telephone service, telephone line, and certain enhanced call handling features (namely, Call Waiting, Call Barring, Call Divert, Calling Number Display and Calling Number Display Suppression). You may be entitled to financial compensation if we fail to meet our CSG Standard requirements.

The CSG Standard does not apply to mobile services, customer equipment or where you have has more than five telephone services.

In certain circumstances, Primus is exempt from complying with the CSG Standard. These situations include:

• Where our ability to comply is impacted by circumstances out of our control, including for example, extreme weather conditions. For more information, visit our Mass Service Disruption Exemption page.
• Where you have specifically waived your CSG rights, in accordance with the Standard.
