Scheduled Service Outages

Scheduled service outages may be required for equipment service and maintenance operations. They can also originate from 3rd party carriers who are providing services to CLI SECURE.

Such outages will be scheduled well outside normal business hours. CLI SECURE will provide at least 1 business day notification of any planned service interruptions to all its customers.

CLI SECURE will notify all affected customers. It is the responsibility of the customer to keep their email address registered and up to date with CLI SECURE. In the event of emergency service interruption, CLI SECURE reserves the right to undertake the service interruption without notice. In such cases CLI SECURE will use its best efforts to notify the customers prior to any service interruption.
