Service Level Agreement & Network Reliability Standards
MidAtlanticBroadband uses digital subscriber line (DSL) technology to provide broadband solutions for businesses, including high-speed Internet access services. The company offers a wide variety of connection speeds as well as Business Solutions packages, which include services and features that businesses, like yours, need today. The company is committed to high quality performance and customer care. As part of every SDSL (symmetrical digital subscriber line) Internet connection service, and at no additional charge to you, we offer the following Service Level Commitments:
Quality of Service Guarantee
If, during the first 30 days after installation, you notify the company that you are not satisfied with MidAtlanticBroadband high speed Internet access, you may request that your service be discontinued, and we will relieve you from the remaining term of your service commitment and waive any "early cancellation fee" otherwise applicable under our standard terms of service. No penalties, no arguments.
Latency Commitment
MidAtlanticBroadband commits to provide an average monthly roundtrip delay of 100 milliseconds or less within the company’s network in North America. Any Customer who experiences average latency in excess of 100 milliseconds for any calendar month may request a two-day Service Credit. Any Customer who experiences average latency in excess of 100 milliseconds in each of two consecutive months may request a seven-day Service Credit.
