Return Visit and Complaints Policy

If the cause of the dissatisfaction was due to a matter beyond the control of BahatiGroup, the Customer shall pay for the additional time incurred at BahatiGroups’ normal rates. If the problem arose directly as a result of BahatiGroup previous attendance no further charge shall be made.

The following exclusions are not counted as ‘FixedFee’ and will be quoted and invoiced for separately.

Training sessions (planned, groups or anything that requires more than 10 minutes dedicated instruction in total);

New hardware or 3rd party software installations (if a new server, workstation, software rollout or IT system is required a pre-approved quote will be required before any work carried out) ;

Repeat faults as a direct result of end users ignoring recommendations provided by BahatiGroup;

Faults with 3rd party software which BahatiGroup is not able or authorized to work with;

General misuse by the Customer of the System, Hardware or Software;

Any projects which fall outside of normal maintenance and support, each such project to be quoted and approved by the Customer separately 

Fair Use Policy in terms of our FixedFee Remote and Telephonic Support contracts

Although we are able to provide FixedFee remote and telephonic support for each user at the Customer, there is a ‘fair use’ limit of 3 separate tickets per device, per calendar month for unrelated incidents. As an example, if we need to repair the same computer for an ongoing problem or a particular repair is expected to take a long time the support is unlimited (subject to all other conditions), but should a single computer suffer varied unrelated problems the support is limited to three single tickets within a month. This is because numerous unrelated problems on a device are symptomatic of hardware failure and BahatiGroup will make a recommendation to replace or repair subject to warranty terms.

Our Technicians are experienced in removing and dealing with Virus’, Malware and Spyware but given their very nature (and the varying causes of infection), we are unable to provide any extended warranty for onsite or offsite support. Our Technicians will typically perform all the necessary tests to diagnose and remove any infections as best as possible, causing as little disruption to you, your computer and your applications as possible but, given the repair options vary from “do nothing” to “wipe the computer”, the varying repairs can have equally varying results. Additionally, in some instances, Virus’ and Malware programmes are designed to cause as much havoc when removed as when in place, meaning the removal can often leave a computer in a more fragile state than when infected. In these instances, we will continue to provide any support as required but cannot be held responsible for damages caused as a result of any attempted repairs. All Customers should ensure they have a working, reliable backup of all their data and important information before requesting any support, resulting in potentially ‘aggressive’ repair solutions.
