FAQ
How secure is the remote connection?

 

We use the industry standard of 128bit SSL Encryption. This is the same security that you would have on any secure shopping website.

 
Can my computer be connected to after the remote session is over or by others?
No. You initiate the remote connection session via our website to our servers. The session is also limited by time. If the session is not used in a 24 hour time frame it will expire and can not be used again.

 

Can a technician come to my location to fix the problem?
For Home Users we only service computers online. For business services we can contract a local technician to carry out the repairs.

 

Can I stop the remote session at anytime?
Yes. If at any time you wish to terminate the remote session you have full control to do so. Although this is not advised since technical support charges may still apply.

 

How long does the remote session take?
Typically our service calls range from 15 minutes to 2 hours. Due to the may different factors that are involved it is hard to accurately guess how long a repair will take with-out fully knowing the situation. Feel free to give us a call to get a free estimate.

 

What if my problem isn't solved after remote session?
We do our best to solve your computer problem(s) the first time around. If we are not able to solve your problem with-in a reasonable time frame we will discount if not offer a complete refund. If a remote connection is established we may request you cover our cost for providing services which is $15.00, due to the cost involved in providing remote support services.

 
Do I have to be present when you are fixing my computer?
No. The only time you need to be present is when we start the remote control session. Once the session is started you may go about your business. Your computer will be rebooted to indicate that we have finished.

How do I get started?
There are 3 ways to initiate support.
  1. Click on Live Help Button
  2. Enter you phone number in the click to call section and you will receive a call back when the next technician is available.
  3. Call (877) 202-6430

The preferred method is the Live Help Button, which allow us to gather all you information before transferring to a technician. This eliminates waiting on the phone for the next available technician and also allows the technician to quickly  research your problem prior to your call, thus reducing the amount of time needed to fix your problem. We are happy to take you call regardless the method of initiating. Billing starts when a remote control session has been started on your computer and ends when the remote session is closed. Under certain circumstances we may not be able to do a remote session, in which case you will be verbally notified when you support session starts and ends.
