Bem-vindo.net advises potential customers to choose a vendor that offers high uptime guarantee stating “the closer to 100%, the better” but does not seem to commit itself to an uptime guarantee. The vendor offers a 10-day free trial period after which if dissatisfied with its hosting services, you can get your money back.
Customers can contact the vendor’s technical support staff via ticketing system, contact form, or live chat. Unfortunately, the company does not seem to offer telephone support. I found a support email on its Facebook page, but could not locate any mention of a support email on its website.
I emailed the support team with my query, but all I got was an automated response. Unfortunately, the vendor never addressed the issues I raised in my email.
Thankfully, Bem-vindo.net has a fairly detailed help center with a good number of tutorials to mitigate the lack of customer support response.
