FAQ
Q: Will I be charged a cancellation fee?
A: Check your service contract's termination section. Fees often apply if cancelling before a minimum term ends. State your request and ask them to confirm any applicable fees in their response.
Q: How long should I wait for a confirmation?
A: Specify a deadline in your email, e.g., 'Please confirm within 3 business days.' If no reply, use the 'firm' template to escalate and create a paper trail.
