2.8 Support Policy

As highlighted on our home page, we offer nothing but quality shared hosting. We are very technical in what we do, you might even called us techno geek. We generally take care of any issue at first sight before it turns into problem for our customers. We work extremely hard for our clients, but we are not caught up in the 24/7 support craze to the extent that other hosting companies are, or at least pretend to be.

We are simply not like that. We have our work hours, and then time for family like you do. If you have an emergency, we are here for you 24×7. But most requests are not of an emergency nature anyway, and do not really need to be answered at 3:46 in the morning.

Nonetheless, our track record serves as a testimony for how good we are with support, our service quality and in the very unlikely event that you need to get in touch with us for support.

We maintain only a small staff for phone support during business hours. The majority of our highly skilled technicians work only on our ticketing system and respond within minutes to any support ticket opened during business hours, or any high priority ticket submitted outside business hours. We highly encourage you to submit your help request via our ticketing system first rather than trying to reach us over the phone. We can handle a dozen or more support tickets and information requests in the time it would take to handle one over the phone. Just make sure you provide as much information as possible on your request, and we will have your questions answered and problems solved in no time.

Methods of Requesting Support

We provide support via phone support for selected hosting packages during business hours and support tickets 24×7 for all hosting packages.

Support Schedule

Business Hours (9am to 5pm, Monday through Friday excluding Public Holidays)

During business hours you can contact us for support, or open a support ticket. You can expect to receive a timely response within an hour if not earlier.

Outside normal business hours, which includes the hours between 5pm and 9am, weekends and public holidays, we are still available to answer support requests submitted through our ticketing system. However, low and medium priority tickets may be deferred until the next business day. Emergency tickets marked high priority will be attended to promptly regardless of the day or time, provided a true emergency condition exists.
