How it's done
- The laptop, notebook or netbook is tested for any defects.
- The faulty parts are replaced. Please note that if we have to replace a faulty part the cost of the part has to be met by the customer. (N.B. We won't replace a faulty part without notifying you first.)
- We remove all the software products installed. (Note: You can specify what software you want left remaining on your machine.)
- We run virus check and removal and then defragment the hard disk.
- We test the CMOS Battery and the laptop battery. If it’s faulty we replace the battery with your permission. The cost of a new battery has to be met by the customer.
- Data Removal and data shredding. (Please note that you don't have to have your data removed)
- Privacy Agreement. Alfanet agrees not to open any of your files or look at any of your data.
- Free space shredding. (Note: when files are deleted basically the file name only is removed from the FAT table (File Access Table). The data remains on the hard disk until overwritten. Free space shredding will completely remove this data.)
- Installation of genuine licensed Microsoft software through our Microsoft® Authorized Refurbisher (MAR) status
