About The Block Of Time
The Block Of Time is a cost effective plan with which you can take care of all of your personal computing, networking and Internet design needs.

Advantages
Unlike typical support contracts, the Block Of Time can be applied toward a wide variety of services over an unspecified period of time. There is no "use it or lose it" deadline, nor are they any terms that limit its use to certain types of services or products. All of the services provided by Nitro Digital Communications can be billed against the Block Of Time. If more time is needed than was initially contracted for, an additional Block Of Time can be purchased at the same discounted rate.

Time is accurately tracked for each use of the Block Of Time, and you receive a statement for each support activity, indicating the type of service performed, the amount of time used, and the time remaining under the current contract.

Cost
We have a single standard rate for all work performed of $65 per hour. A Block Of Time is sold in 10-hour increments. You get a 20% discount off of the hourly rate if you buy one or more blocks. This lowers the hourly rate to $52 per hour or a savings of $13 per hour. One Block Of Time Costs $520.

Hours bought on the Block Of Time plan can also be used to cover URGENT (4-hour response time) or mission-critical EMERGENCY (2-hour response time) support calls, along with Standard non-critical calls. Hours will be deducted from the Block Of Time in relation to the response-time requested: Urgent responses are billed at time-and-a-half rates; Emergency responses are billed at double-time. Customers are not charged at the higher rate if the response-time is quicker than requested.
