Christmas wishes and hours

25 December 2016 15:05:15 +0000

We’re a little behind this year, but we would like to wish you and those in your organisation and your families a Merry Christmas, and all the best for a prosperous New Year. We have appreciated your business in 2016 and look forward to continuing to serve you in 2017.

Over Christmas and the New Year our administrative side will be taking a break, and will be back on the job on Tuesday 3 January 2017. We will, of course, continue to monitor servers 24/7, and emergency support requests will be dealt with.

Thanks again for your continued business.

Christmas 2015 and New Year hours and wishes

23 December 2015 20:49:55 +0000

Time sure flies when you’re having fun. It’s hard to believe that another year is about to end, and a new one about to start.

We thank you, as we should do more often, for your custom in 2015. In 2016 we’ll be celebrating our 20th anniversary, and whether you’ve been a client with us since 1996 (as some of you have) or you only joined us this year, your business is appreciated every day. Thank-you. We look forward to continuing to earn your business next year and further into the future.

Over the Christmas and New Year break we’ll be taking a bit of a break ourselves. From 23 December to 3 January our offices will be closed. Servers and support emails will continue to be monitored 24/7 and any urgent matters will be attended to right away. Routine or administrative matters will be addressed on Monday the 4th.

We wish you and your colleagues, employees and families a merry Christmas (if you celebrate it), and all the best for the New Year.

New phone number

15 January 2014 13:58:41 +0000

We have a new phone number for our Vancouver, Canada, office, which we have added to the contact page on our website, but which has actually been on our invoices for some time now.

The new phone number is 604 630 1772. For those of you in North America but outside of the Vancouver local calling area, you can also still reach us using our toll-free number: 1 855 NINERNET (1 855 646 3763).

Those of you outside of North America may also be able to reach us using the toll-free number depending on the services available to you through your phone company or VoIP provider. If you can’t use the toll-free number, please use the 604 number after dialling your country’s international access code and the country code for North America (1).

The above two phone numbers are our only North American phone numbers. Please discard any old North American numbers that you may still have on file, as they no longer work or will cease to work shortly.

We continue to provide most support via email, and we encourage you to continue to submit support requests via email or through the contact form on our website at the above link.

Thank-you.

Christmas and New Year hours and wishes

24 December 2013 22:25:28 +0000

It’s the end of the year again, and a fitting time to thank you once again for the custom that you have given to NinerNet in 2013. This year was challenging in some respects, but looking at things from the positive side the challenges were the result of growth. Some of that growth continues to be the new business that you, our existing clients, continue to refer to us, and for that we are most grateful.

Looking forward to 2014 we, as always, have plans to expand and improve the services we offer to you. Some of the new services will involve “private clouds”. We have avoided the buzzword “cloud”, bucking the industry trend in recent years, but with the news that broke this year about pervasive, worldwide, government surveillance — especially through big hosting companies based in the USA — we’re getting more enquiries about setting up a cloud-type infrastructure for in-house use only, and on servers outside the US. Look for an announcement about this in 2014.

On a wider scale, 2014 will see the introduction of new top-level domains (TLDs) and stronger enforcement of the requirement to use real and working contact data for domain registrations. Early in the new year we’ll be contacting you about the latter. As for the new TLDs — a TLD is the part of your domain to the right of the last dot (e.g., .com) — early registration for some of these are underway. Their introduction has been controversial, but they may see use in certain regions and niche industries. At this time they would appeal to only a limited number of our existing clients, but we’ll be providing information about them early in the New Year too (although we can immediately register in some of them). Some examples of new TLDs include .bike (e.g., example.bike), .clothing, .construction, .contractors, .diamonds, .enterprises, .guru, .holdings, .singles … and so on. Eventually there will also be a .africa too. Please be aware, though, that there are already scams involving fake registrations in these new TLDs, so if you get spam about these please keep that in mind and ask us if you need guidance.

Finally, our offices will be closed over the Christmas break for routine business, but support continues to be monitored 24 hours a day, seven days a week. We will re-open on Monday, 6 January.

We wish you and your family, business, organisation, employees and/or colleagues who celebrate it a very happy Christmas, and all the best for the New Year.
