U.S. ROBOTICS SYSOP SUPPORT PROGRAM
General:
This section describes the rules of the U.S. Robotics
SYSOP Program. U.S. Robotics reserves the right to modify
or change these rules at any time.
Scope:
The U.S. Robotics SYSOP Program permits QUALIFIED
SYSOPs to purchase current U.S. Robotics modem products at
a reduced price. The purpose of this program is to
continue the close relationship established many years
ago. Participants should recognize that our ability to
continue the program is dependent upon the strong position
U.S. Robotics enjoys in the reseller channel with the
distributors and dealers, VARs, etc. that continue to buy
and resell our products to home and business users around
the world. It is our intent to maintain the integrity of
our channel relationships by closely scrutinizing each
SYSOP sale to ensure that we only sell modems to qualified
SYSOPs.
Qualifications:
1. The SYSOP states that he/she is NOT in the business of
reselling computer products and/or related
peripherals, including modems. Qualified resellers
may take advantage of other programs offered by U.S.
Robotics by calling (800) 342-5877 and asking for the
dealer sales representative for your area.
2. The SYSOP has been operating the bulletin board system
for at least six (6) months.
3. The SYSOP understands that the number of modems that
may be obtained under this program is limited to the
number of working, VERIFIABLE data lines. Data lines
MUST be dedicated for modem use only and MUST be
available 24 hours a day for modem access. Modems
purchased under this program MUST be used on one of
the stated lines.
4. The SYSOP agrees to post an appropriate logon notice,
visible to users of the bulletin board, which states
that said bulletin board uses and supports U.S.
Robotics brand modems.
5. The SYSOP agrees that he/she intends to operate the
bulletin board, for which these modems are purchased,
for at least six (6) months post purchase. The U.S.
Robotics logon must remain in effect for six (6)
months to allow verification that the bulletin board
is in place and that the U.S. Robotics promotional
message is being displayed.
6. The SYSOP agrees that, in order to avoid conflict with
the U.S. Robotics reseller channel, modems purchased
under this program cannot be re-sold without the
expressed written consent of U.S. Robotics.
Violation of this policy will result in the SYSOP's
being ineligible for future participation in the U.S.
Robotics SYSOP program. In addition, any warranties
on modems re-sold without U.S. Robotics authorization
will be null and void.
7. The SYSOP understands that processing of an order will
take from four (4) to eight (8) weeks depending on the
number of orders being processed by the SYSOP Support
Department, difficulty in verifying your bulletin
board and the availability of the particular modem
ordered. U.S. Robotics will ship modem(s) to
QUALIFIED SYSOPs as soon as possible after:
A. The SYSOP completes the order form and
questionnaire found immediately after these rules.
These must be filled-out online as no mail-in orders
will be accepted.
PREPAID ORDERS WILL BE GIVEN PREFERENTIAL TREATMENT IN
TERMS OF PROCESSING AND SHIPPING AS OPPOSED TO C.O.D.
ORDERS. However, prepaid orders will not be processed
until payment has been received by U.S. Robotics.
After placing an order on the board, a SYSOP wishing
to prepay his/her order should send a money order or
cashier's check to:
U.S. Robotics SYSOP Support Program
8100 McCormick Blvd.
Skokie, IL 60076
It is imperative that the SYSOP name, voice phone
number and BBS phone number be indicated for identi-
fication purposes. A personal or company check is
acceptable, but shipping will delayed for ten (10)
working days to ensure that the check clears our bank.
NO CHECKS OR MONEY ORDERS WILL BE DEPOSITED BY U.S.
ROBOTICS UNTIL THE SYSOP's BBS HAS BEEN VERIFIED.
B. The SYSOP understands that once an order is
placed, it cannot be changed. If you are uncertain
as to the modem you want to purchase, you may consult
the Information & Text Files file area of this
bulletin board for product information. Or, you may
call the U.S. Robotics Technical Support Department at
(800) 982-5151 in the U.S. or (800) 553-3560 in Canada.
Outside the U.S and Canada, call (708) 982-5151.
C. Your board will be verified by a the U.S.
Robotics Co-SYSOP. We MUST be able to connect with
your bulletin board to verify board status. In the
event that we are uncertain of your board status, you
will be notified either by the Co-SYSOP via your board
or by mail. We will advise you as best we can as to
what you need to provide in order to have your board
verified (appropriate logon, copy of phone bill, soft-
ware registration, etc). In no case will we verify a
board until we are certain that it meets the require-
ments of the program.
D. U.S. Robotics will not accept phone-in orders.
E. U. S. Robotics reserves the right to modify,
change or cancel this program at any time.
F. If you have any questions regarding this program,
please call (800) 342-5877 for clarification. In Canada,
call (800) 553-3560. Outside the U.S. and Canada, call
(708) 982-5001.
*** THANK YOU ***
ADDENDUM
We realize that all Bulletin Boards are not the same and
we are not always able to ascertain their validity during
our normal verification process. In order not to exclude
those Bulletin Boards from our program, we may request
additional information such as copies of telephone bills,
proof of software purchase and/or registration and network
and association membership.
U.S. Robotics is determined to provide a SYSOP Program
which is fair and equitable to everyone. Any requests
made of SYSOPs in order to verify Bulletin Boards are made
in order to ensure that the program serves the entire
SYSOP community and protect the USR distribution channel
as well.
We will make every effort to process each and every order
in a professional and courteous manner. Please help us to
provide the type of service you want and deserve by
filling-out the order form as completely and accurately as
possible and responding to our requests for additional
information in a prompt manner.
