Call Out
Time taken problem solving is not charged – working largely in a mobile capacity, call-out can all the same take up valuable time so, while we operate a no fix, no fee policy and won't charge a call-out for commissioned repairs, we must invoice a half-hour engineers' fee (offset against the repair cost). Where problems require that a base unit or laptop is returned with us, a return to client charge may be included, consequently customers are optionally encouraged to bring and/or collect serviced units to help achieve a more cost-effective solution.
Engineers' Fee / No Fix, No Fee
An engineers' fee is £15.00 (offset against the repair cost). Our optional standard service charge / hourly rate then starts at £30.00ph (Less 20% returning customers, second, third unit (Minimum half-hour)). An on-site repair might include
broadband issues, software checks and repair, a quick service, housekeeping, Internet problems,
virus/rogue software/trojan removal, hardware issues etc.
What does no-fix, no-fee mean? If we commit to off-site works but then find and report back a system is beyond economical repair (BER), we may operate a no-fix no-fee, or reduced fee (essential repair) policy. However, if we diagnose a problem and the client then simply opts not to go ahead, we will invoice an engineers' fee (systems assessed as BER on-site (engineers' discretion)).
Evenings and Weekends
Where a laptop or system is brought in by arrangement, an 'evening and weekend' supplementary charge is not applied, however a surcharge of £10.00 will be applied to an on-site service fee if outside normal working hours. There is no night time service.
