(1) Where a consumer changes residence and wishes to continue their contracts, the provider of publicly available telecommunications services is required to provide the contractually owed service at the consumer's new residence, without altering the agreed contract term or other contract content, insofar as it offers that service there. The provider may demand a reasonable charge for the expense arising from the relocation, which may not, however, exceed the charge provided for connecting a new line.
(2) Where the contractually owed service is not offered at the new residence, the consumer may terminate the contract subject to one month's notice. Termination may be declared with effect from the date of moving out, or with effect from a later date.
(3) Providers of publicly available telecommunications services and operators of public telecommunications networks cooperate to ensure that activation of the telecommunications service at the new residence takes place on the day expressly agreed with the consumer. Section 58(3) and section 59(4) apply correspondingly.
(4) The Federal Network Agency may, having regard to contract law, technical feasibility, and the need to ensure continuity of service for end users, determine the details of the procedure for relocation.
