I have to say it sounds like a good idea. What is also amazing it the price difference between Europe and the US for support calls. At todays conversion rate the difference is incredible. Nearly twice as expensive from Europe.

Rgds,

This sucks.

What option do we have if we're in a basement server room with no cell phone signal and no way to route incoming calls to the company down to us? It happens very often.

You could use SIP phone in the basement?

Are we to assume this excludes business down?

Does MS really believe that the hours of operation of a small business are different from a midsize business or in most cases an enterprise?

Does this mean that "Server Down" support calls will no longer be free?

I'm sure Microsoft will still cover a call related to a defect in software, but 99.999999999999999% of the time it's the configuration and not the code that causes problems.

Thanks.

Callback really sucks in a lot of situations. The problem Michael touches on, plus if I am calling then I want to work on the problem now and not when it is convenient for some tech to call me back. If someone calls with a CritSit will they be given a live transfer?
