How to use this SLA credit calculator
Downtime sucks and when we don’t meet our SLA, you deserve to be credited. We created this calculator to help you estimate how much we owe you.
First, input the number of hours your server or website was down rounded to the nearest half hour. For example, if your server was down for 3 hours 34 minutes, round to 3 hours and 30 minutes (3.5). You will enter “3.5” into the first box.
Second, input your monthly service amount. Exclude any third-party amounts such as licenses. If you pay annually, semi-annually, or quarterly, divide your service cost by 12, 6, or 3, respectively, and enter that amount.
Click on “Calculate SLA Credit”. This is the amount you’re estimated to be credited.
ESTIMATE ONLY: This calculator is only an estimate. You must submit a ticket to our billing team in order to claim a SLA credit.
Per our SLA, every 30 minutes of downtime is equal to 5% of credit, up to a maximum of 100% per 30 days. This means if your server was down for 30 minutes within one 30 day cycle, you would be entitled to 5% credit per our SLA. If your server was down for 12 hours, you would be credited for 10 hours as that is when you would reach the SLA credit cap.
If you believe you are entitled to a SLA credit, please open a billing ticket requesting an SLA credit within 7 days of the event. We will investigate and if the claim is valid, provide a credit within 30 days. If your claim is rejected, we will let you know.
