It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas!
Everywhere you go.... Including right here!
Read on to find out about holiday trading hours, Free Xmas Hold Music, Number Porting and Network Embargoes, and How to set up a Christmas Timeswitch
It's December 1, 2020. The Christmas decorations are going up, and as we prepare for a super-busy first half of December, we've got a few things to let you know.
- Extended Support Hours and Christmas Trading Hours
- Number Porting and Network Embargo
Free Christmas Hold Music for MaxoTel customers and our Whitelabel partner end-users.
EXTENDED SUPPORT HOURS
Your Maxo team are happy to announce we're trialling extended support hours, covering 9AM - 5PM in all Australian timezones.
CHRISTMAS TRADING HOURS
Sometimes even our team needs a short break. So that our team can catch up with loved ones over the Christmas period, our support, sales and accounts teams will be available on a reduced schedule.
Our support hours will be (QLD time):
Thursday 24 Dec | Friday 25 Dec | Monday 28 Dec | Tuesday 29 Dec | Wednesday 30 Dec | Thursday 31 Dec | Friday 1 Jan | Monday 4 Jan Onwards |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 8AM - 2PM | Closed | Closed | 10AM - 4PM | 10AM - 4PM | 10AM - 2PM | Closed | Normal Hours |
Our systems team, while not available by phone, will continue to monitor the platform throughout this period.
NUMBER PORTING IMPACTS
As most carriers scale back their teams over the Christmas period, the timeframe for number port processing may be a little longer than usual. Our team will continue to process new number ports and track ports in progress, however the time taken from submission to port completion will be slower. We expect timeframes to return to normal around mid January.
NETWORK EMBARGO
Between 5PM, 18th December 2020 and 9AM, 11th January 2021 we will not be performing any non-essential network or infrastructure changes.
For any essential changes, updates will be posted on our status page at https://status.maxo.com.au
FREE CHRISTMAS HOLD MUSIC
To help your staff and clients get into the festive mood, we've made available a free Christmas hold music playlist to both our MaxoTel Hosted PBX customers and our Whitelabel Partner clients.
Enabling this hold music is easy - to do so, login to https://my.maxo.com.au/ and select Hold Music then Change Primary Playlist and select Royalty-Free Xmas
SETTING UP A CHRISTMAS TIMESWITCH
