VPS Support Policy and Definition

Standard support is designed for Virtual Private Server (VPS) clients who are self-sufficient in managing a dedicated server. Included at no additional cost with your VPS account is our standard support to assure the server and infrastructure availability you expect from a provider. Standard support covers systems and infrastructure that is exclusively managed by our support and operations staff and is outside of customer control. Example issues eligible for free standard support include a reboot, a networking problem, or a hardware failure. Additional technical support is provided on a for-fee basis as shown at here: (support chart).

Additional VPS Support Services Definition (Fee Based)
Our Technical Support Department is pleased to provide you with outstanding technical support. Complex support issues requiring assistance from our Technical Support Department are provided on a per-incident fee. This technical support assistance is provided at a fee of $75 per hour (with a minimum one-hour charge). After 30 days, all incidents expire and a new support incident must be purchased. Example issues of for fee technical support include, but are not limited to, server unavailability not due to hardware or network services exclusively under our control, a request for assistance with an application that may have been configured incorrectly, or education and administration.

Education and Administration VPS support service charges will be quoted in advance and are payable via credit card.
