- 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.

-
- 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.
