Complaint and Enforcement
-
- Complaint
- Complaints regarding abusive conduct may be reported by FAX to (954)
946-7211, ATTN: Policy Review Board, or by mail to:
enetwork-solutions, Inc.
500 South Cypress Road Pompano Beach, FL 33060
Complaints will also be accepted via e-mail, so long as a valid return
address is included. Company must be able to independently verify each
instance of abuse, and so each complaint must include the COMPLETE TEXT OF
THE OBJECTIONAL MESSAGE, INCLUDING ALL HEADERS. Please do NOT send excerpted
parts of a message; sending a copy of the entire message, including headers,
helps to prevent misunderstandings based on incomplete information, or
information used out of context. Full headers demonstrate which pat h the
message has taken, and enable us to determine whether any part of the
message has been forged. This information is vital to our
investigation.
-
- Enforcement
- Company may, in its sole discretion, suspend or terminate a customer's
service for violation of any of AUP at any time and without warning. As a
general matter, Company attempts to work with customers to cure violations
and to ensure that there is no re-occurrence of the violation prior to
terminating service.
Liability

direct, indirect, special or other consequential damages for actions taken
pursuant to this AUP, including, but not limited to, any lost profits, business
interruption, loss of prog rams or other data, or otherwise, even if Company was
advised of the possibility of such damages.
