Quantum’s Service Protection Plan
Quantum does not charge for service visits needed to repair Quantum-owned facilities, and/or, equipment the Customer has leased from Quantum. All equipment purchased from Quantum is guaranteed for one-year. Equipment and facilities leased from Quantum are guaranteed for as long as the Customer has Quantum’s service.
Service charges may apply in certain situations if leased or purchased Quantum facilities, and/or, equipment, is not the source of the problems the Customer is experiencing. However, if the Customer is experiencing problems not related to Quantum’s service, Quantum’s techs will offer the Customer free advice, to the best of their ability, to help resolve such issues.
The Quantum Service Protection Plan protects the Customer against service charges for visits to diagnose and repair Quantum installed circuits for Quantum’s Internet, and/or, voice services. Additionally, the Service Protection Plan includes service visits to diagnose problems relating to the connection between the Customer’s router, and/or equipment, and Quantum’s services. The Residential Service Protection Plan is only $2.95/mo., and the Business Service Protection Plan is only $5.95/mo.
The Service Protection Plan begins on the day the Customer’s new service becomes active! Also, it is risk free, and may be cancelled at the end of the contract term, or, at any time service is terminated, subject to the provisions below.

Service Protection Plan Definitions
Network Interface Device (NID) Customer wiring begins where wiring exits the Customer side of the NID to service the Customer’s residence. Repair and maintenance of wiring outside the residence, beyond the NID Point, is Quantum’s responsibility, except for wiring that is owned or provided by a third party, i.e., another service provider.
Equipment Rented from Quantum includes any equipment provided to the Customer by Quantum and is included in the Customer’s service order agreement, or separately charged. This equipment would usually include standard modems, wireless modems, bonded modems, single, or multi-port routers. Miscellaneous cables, connectors, outlets, etc. are not considered rented equipment.
In-Premise Wiring means wiring that the Customer, or the Customer’s Landlord, owns from the Demarcation Point to the individual jacks and outlets in the premises that can be used for Quantum services.
Inaccessible in-premise wiring includes wiring that is behind sheet rock, brick, metal, cinder block, plaster, or similar existing structural elements that cannot be serviced without breaching and damaging the structure.
Customer Equipment means any equipment or components owned or provided by the Customer.
Except as expressly set forth herein, Quantum shall not be liable for any damages (including indirect, incidental, punitive, or consequential damages of any kind) arising from work performed under the Service Protection Plan. Quantum makes no warranties, express or implied, under the Service Protection Plan, and specifically disclaims any warranty of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose.
The Service Protection Plan terms and conditions are in addition to, and not in lieu of, Quantum’s Internet and Telephone Service Order and Agreement, which may be found at http://www.quantel.net/regulations. Other terms and restrictions may apply.
