3 Services and coverage

CUBO will notify you of any terms of access that you need to comply with to use the overseas networks.
3.4 CUBO will aim to give you accurate dates for the performance of Services but unless CUBO agree with you otherwise, any dates given are estimates only and time is not of the essence in relation to such dates. If you or a third party cause us to be unable to provide the Services, the dates for provision of (but not payment for) the Services shall be delayed by a reasonable period of time.
