All our Hosting products (including Shared, Reseller, Master Reseller and VPS Hosting) are subject to a 30 Day Money Back Guarantee. If at any time during the first 30 days you decide you want to cancel your hosting plan you will receice a FULL REFUND with no questions asked. After the first 30 Days you may still seek a PARTIAL REFUND for 12 month and 24 month subscriptions. The partial refund is calculated as the fraction of your current unused subscription period over the entire subscription period, less a 25% fee of the original payment. For example if you signed up for a yearly hosting plan at $29.95/y and after 3 months decided you wanted to cancel, you could seek a partial refund of [9/12x$29.95] - [0.25x$29.95] = $14.97

Please note that ALL our Software Products are NON-REFUNDABLE, this includes WHMreseller & DAreseller Licenses. The trial periods are intended to allow clients to fully test our software products before purchasing. It may also be advisable to clients who are uncertain of their long term situation to signup for our software products on monthly subscriptions which could then be cancelled at anytime. Domain Name Registrations and SSL Certificates are also Non-Refundable. Any outstanding balance in your account is also Non-refundable upon account closure. An outstanding balance is typically caused by clients who "Add Funds" to their deasoft.com account in advance. It is clearly stated on the "Add Funds" page that these added funds are considered an advanced purchase that can only be spent at deasoft.com and are non-refundable.

We only deduct a 25% fee on refunds that are requested after the first 30 days. If you request a refund within the first 30 days you will get ALL your money back. We charge this 25% fee on refund requests made after the first 30 days because we often invest time and energy setting up clients accounts and managing their support needs, this fee gives us a way to cover these costs. It also serves to discourage clients from cancelling and signing up again repeatedly.

All our Hosting products (including Shared, Reseller, Master Reseller and VPS Hosting) come with a 99.8% Uptime availability commitment. If in any quarterly period (Jan/Feb/Mar), (Apr/May/Jun), (Jul/Aug/Sep), (Oct/Nov/Dec) our hosting services fail to have an average availability of 99.8%, clients can request a free month of hosting on their current plan. The stated figure of 99.8% equates to approximately 86 minutes of allowable downtime per month, for the stated 3 month period (quarterly period) that becomes a total allowable accumulative downtime of approx (4 hours 18 mintues) per quarter. There is a limit of 4 free months in any year that can be claimed due to downtime, 1 free month per quarter. Please note that downtime is considered as only that which causes complete website outage, either by network/hardware failure or due to our own administration errors.
