• A quick note about equipment costs: The pricing shown above is for service (labor) fees. Sometimes our customers purchase hardware, software, networking or other equipment from us. These items are charged separately from our service fees. We provide these items as a convenience to our customers but do not require that they be purchased from us! We will happily install or service hardware, software, networking or other equipment our customers purchase on their own no matter where it was purchased from!
• When and how do you pay? - All payments are due at the time of service. Please make arrangements to settle up with your geek via cash, check, or credit card (MC, VISA, AMEX, Discover) even if you will not be personally present at the conclusion of service.
• Why does the Geek Housecalls Pricing terms and Agreement form have so much fine print? - The language in our agreement is designed to cover all situations and possibilities even if they are not what you have called on us for (for example, if you call us for tutoring in Microsoft Excel, the language regarding moving furniture and drilling holes in walls is not relevant, however if you call us for installation of Network wiring, it is very relevant)
• Why am I signing a release of liability? - The release of liability is necessary because we come to you not knowing the state of your equipment and even a system which seems to be operating normally when we arrive, could be operating in a compromised state or even coincidentally fail during or after our visit. As such, we must protect ourselves from these possibilities.
• About Discount Coupons, "Geek Bucks", and promotional advertising discounts: Geek Housecalls may from time to time publish discount coupons and promotional discounts in various advertising programs and media as well as offer "Geek Bucks" coupons to customers. Unless specifically stated otherwise, all promotional discounts and coupons offered by Geek Housecalls are discounts against the site visit fee and cannot be applied to the hourly service charge. As such, the coupons or discounts may only be redeemed when the full $50 site visit fee is charged. Under no circumstances may multiple coupons, discounts or offers be combined against a single billing.
