For all services the following conditions
apply:
The support contract telephone
number is +44 (0)1905 842000. The service
will be provided between 9am and 5pm Monday to Friday UK Time (excluding
English public holidays). A stand-by 'emergency call back' service may
also operate in the period between Christmas and New Year.
A message service will operate
for customers unable to reach a support representative on their first
call. Ob-serve will then return calls to these individuals (avoiding
long periods of call holding and queuing often associated with other
computing companies).
Following the initial telephone
call, support may be dealt with by telephone, mail, fax, e-mail as determined
appropriate by Ob-serve support personnel.
Incidents relating to any
bugs discovered in the program will not count as part of any allocation
of support incidents.
Whilst an attempt will always
be made to advise with issues relating to the malfunction of computer
hardware, operating systems and printers etc, Ob-serve is not deemed
responsible for solving issues concerning these items.
If the maximum number of incidents
is exceeded before the end of the support period, a new 12 month contract
on the next level of support will be commenced for you automatically
from that point.
