Tech Support Policy

This is a page concerning a policy or procedure in development.
Once fleshed out, we'll consider it for adoption as official policy at Free Geek.
- We provide Technical Support on systems for one year from the date of purchase, provided that the original Operating System (Ubuntu 8.04) (or Ubuntu 10.04) is still installed and no major changes to the hardware have been made.
- Systems purchased in the store are supported on a pay-as-you-go basis for $10 an issue. Hardware costs extra. We can only help solve your tech support issues if the original operating system that came with your machine is still installed.
- Free Geek Tech Support is available from Noon to 6 PM, Tuesday through Saturday.
- To receive tech support, be sure your computer is covered by our policy above, and do one of the following:
- Call (503)232-9350 and press option 6. If your call is not answered (you call outside of tech support hours, or the support techs are busy) please leave a message with your name, phone number, and a short description of your problem.
- Send an email to support@freegeek.org. Be sure to include contact information and a short description of the problems you’re experiencing.
- Stop in! We’d be happy to help you in person during Tech Support's open hours. You can also drop off your system at the Front Desk during Free Geek's open hours (Tuesday through Saturday, 10-6), provided that it is covered by our tech support policy above.
