9Support
- This is a co-proposition and represents a change
from our traditional support model where Vodafone
would normally support the complete customer
experience - With the Windows Mobile proposition Vodafone will
only provide support around the network and the
device - Any server side issues will be handed back to the
customer IT - If a customer can get Internet access via the
device then the issue will be identified as
originating at the server side
