What the guarantee covers
The guarantee applies only to recurring managed IT support management fees actually paid for your first 90 days of live service. If you are unhappy with that eligible IT support service, contact us within the guarantee period. The qualifying payment is twice those eligible fees: a return of the eligible amount paid plus the same amount again. We confirm the calculation and any applicable VAT treatment in writing.
When the 90 days start
The period starts on the live managed IT service date recorded in your agreement, after onboarding and the eligibility checks have been completed. Project work, procurement and licensing before live service do not start the support guarantee period.
Eligibility requirements
- Covered hardware must be less than three years old, with age confirmed during onboarding.
- Supported end-user computers must run genuine, supported Windows 11 Pro.
- Supported users must use Microsoft 365 Business Premium.
- Supported devices must have completed onboarding into the agreed Microsoft management environment, including the agreed Intune and Entra configuration, and appear in the approved service inventory.
- The covered environment must meet the Cyber Essentials technical standard, with the agreed security controls kept in place.
Meeting the technical standard is distinct from holding a Cyber Essentials certificate. We document requirements, remediation and the agreed baseline. Devices awaiting onboarding, unmanaged devices and personal devices outside the approved inventory are outside the managed IT support scope.
What is excluded
The guarantee excludes hardware and equipment costs, Microsoft 365 and other software licences, Azure consumption, third-party application support, managed cyber security fees, training, onboarding and other project charges. Only the clearly itemised managed IT support management fee qualifies. Line-of-business and other third-party applications require support from their own suppliers.
How to claim
Email matthew@39support.com within the first 90 days of live managed IT support. Include your business name, service account reference if available, and that you wish to claim under the guarantee. Tell us what has left you unhappy so we can understand the experience. We check the service start date, agreed eligibility and qualifying payments, then explain the payment calculation and arrangements in writing.
Other contract rights and commitments
The guarantee is a service promise, not a guarantee that every fault has a fixed resolution time or that every system is supported. The signed agreement defines the managed scope and service responsibilities. Microsoft subscription commitments and other excluded third-party costs remain subject to their own agreed terms. This guarantee does not remove rights or liabilities that cannot lawfully be excluded.
