If all service calls are chargable, but you waive where it's your fault, or 
otherwise indicated, you're an awesome business doing right by your customers.

If you roll for free, then charge when you find the customer's been using the 
radio for target practice, you're a greedy bastard who's out to squeeze every 
last penny out of innocent, hard-working regular folk, who just made a simple 
mistake, aren't smart with all that computer stuff, and didn't realize that 
electronic equipment works best without holes in it, and shouldn't be punished 
because YOU didn't explain that to them.

Subject: [AFMUG] charging for service calls

There have been some discussions at the office recently on this topic.  
One camp feels that the default action should be to charge for all service 
calls, and make an exception if necessary.  The other camp feels that we should 
reserve the right to charge for a service call, but we should only do so if the 
problem is somehow the customer's fault (like hitting the cable with the weed 
whacker). The discussion in our office is only about fixing internet service by 
the way, not about fixing computers or other customer equipment.

I was wondering what the peanut gallery thinks today.
