Service Level Guarantee
BetterCall Services Objective is to ensure services are available to Customer 99.99% of the time, subject to the conditions and restrictions set forth below. The services calculations will not include any unavailability that Customer fails to report to Service Provider immediately upon a service outage by initiating a trouble ticket, or any unavailability resulting from:1. Any Customer and/or third party provided hardware or software;
2. Acts or omissions of Customer;
3. Reasons of Force Majeure as defined in the services agreement.
In the event Service Provider fails to meet the Services Objective for any given month, Customers may request an Outage Credit of five percent (5%) of the applicable monthly service and maintenance fees for each calendar day in which an outage of thirty (30) minutes or more occurs. Customer’s request for Outage Credit must be received within thirty (30) calendar days of the Outage. In no event shall Service Provider be liable for Outage Credits in excess of 100% of the affected monthly service and maintenance fees or for outages caused by third party telecommunications provider related issues, internal wiring or power failure.
