To underscore our commitment to service reliability and drive home the value of these plans, we provide a Service Availability Guarantee (SAG) with our Premium Assurance Service Add-ons. We offer two levels of SAG – Silver 99% and Gold 99.95% – to suit your clients’ specific needs.

Terms and Conditions:
We want to ensure complete transparency and fairness in our SAG rebate process. Here are some key points to consider:
- The SAG rebate applies only to the affected service, not all services on the customer’s account.
- The rebate time counter starts when the customer logs a fault with our help desk.
- Customers must request a rebate within 3 months of the relevant issue to receive the payment.
- The SAG does not cover events beyond our reasonable control, including acts of third parties, customers, or force majeure events.
