Support Services

1. Service Levels

1.1

Any issues should be reported to the Customer Service Desk.

1.2 - Priority levels. 

Based on the table below, the Customer can initially determine, acting reasonably, into which priority level an issue falls, but Supplier also acting reasonably shall solely and ultimately determine this.

Critical

Total system inoperability of either the Mobile Application or Control Panel (e.g. the Mobile Application or Control Panel is totally inaccessible or inoperable).

Urgent

Partial system inoperability of either the Mobile Application or Control Panel (e.g. queue times, show times, map/wayfinding, messaging/featured content, planner or search are totally inaccessible or inoperable). Queue times shall be deemed inoperable if the data presented in-app is substantially out of sync with the source data (e.g. queue times shown in-app are from 60 minutes ago, where the last change to the source data was 30 minutes ago, even though the app last refreshed its queue time data 2 minutes ago).

Moderate

A core function of either the Mobile Application or Control Panel is impaired, where the impairment does not constitute a critical or urgent issue (e.g. losing the ability to re-order POI images).

Minor

Anything not falling into the above categories, including cosmetic issues.

1.3 - Support Hours.
