The Phone Mast Company

HOW WE HELP

We are specialists in providing phone mast rental advice against the following mobile phone mast operators.

• Cornerstone phone mast lease agreements and rents
• Vodafone phone mast lease agreements and rents

Many phone mast leases allow for the rent to be increased via a rent review. We are consistently increasing rents with reviews on phone mast sites. It is not uncommon that your rent could be doubled or even tripled. In many instances a large amount of back rent can also be due. In spite of the new Electronic Communications Code, we are also market leaders in agreeing lease renewals, fighting against the large reductions sought by the telecoms operators.

When you contact us, we will chat through any issues you are currently having and establish how we may be able to help you. In order to do this, we often require a copy of the phone mast agreement and any recent operator correspondence which we will review free of charge. We will then send you some information on the issue discussed and our terms of business, so you can see our fees.

WHY US?

Over a period of 10 years, we have amassed a database of thousands of high rented mobile phone mast deals across the UK, which allows us to confidently negotiate higher phone mast rents and excellent phone mast lease / agreement terms for our landlords. This database ensures our negotiations are successful, as we always have the comparable evidence to support our case.

The New Electronic Communication Code became Law in December 2017. This new Law gives operators more power to reduce phone mast rents and greater power to share and upgrade phone mast sites. All operators are now actively seeking to significantly reduce rents to as little as £25 per annum and, in some cases, force you to accept a small, one-off compensation payment via Land Tribunal / Court.

Please see this link from the UK Government website in regard to The Electronic Communication Code and phone mast rent reductions.  At the moment we are currently waiting on a number of test cases in the Courts to establish what the new site rentals will be and terms in the future.

To date, we are the only firm in the UK to have successfully fought back against operators and kept phone mast rents at the same high levels. We helped prevent a new Code agreement at £25 per annum being forced on a landowner in the Upper Land Tribunal (see CTIL v Compton Beauchamp Estates). As a result the landlords phone mast rental stayed at the same high level. See this link to the landmark Court Case.

It should be noted that the operator Cornerstone tried to appeal this decision and were unsuccessful in winning the appeal. See link to landmark appeal.
