Dell Premium Support Expanded Worldwide

May 4 2016Dell has announced it is expanding the availability of Premium Support, a service for consumer PCs that dramatically improves the customer experience through simplified, hassle-free support. Currently offered in the US and Canada, it is being made available in 110 additional countries across Asia-Pacific, Europe, the Middle East, Africa and Latin America. Premium Support provides 24×7 anytime, anywhere phone access to expert technicians, onsite service after remote diagnosis and proactive automated support for consumer PCs and tablets.

Powered by Dell’s innovative, award-winning SupportAssist technology, Dell Premium Support automatically detects both hardware and software issues and proactively alerts consumers when they occur. SupportAssist also enables Dell’s technicians to initiate contact with customers and begin resolving the problem, often before they even know an issue exists.

  • 24×7 support access by phone or online
  • Onsite service after remote diagnosis within 1-2 business days
  • Single resource for hardware and software expertise
  • Proactive resolution of issues automatically detected by SupportAssist technology
  • Comprehensive software support and collaborative assistance for preinstalled software titles like Microsoft Office, Explorer, Outlook, and more
  • Help and “how to” for network connectivity, printer setup, back-up, anti-virus set up, operating system upgrades and more
