In addition, the Customer agrees to assume personal responsibility for all payments due in consideration of this Agreement.
Should customers have concerns about their service performance, the customer must formally contact Solstar Technical Support or Customer Care regarding the issue during their travels. In situations where the service is deemed not to have worked during travels, Solstar will be unable to provide compensation, if Solstar was not given the opportunity to troubleshoot and resolve issues during the service period.
