How long will it take to fix the fault in my equipment?

Where possible, we will try to address any faults over the telephone to minimise the amount of disruption and downtime caused by any difficulties. If the fault cannot be rectified over the telephone, a service technician will be dispatched. Charges may apply for a service technician to provide technical assistance depending on your level of maintenance/service coverage plan.

The onsite response time will also depend on your maintenance/service coverage plan. For further information on what your agreement includes please email anz.contactus@pb.com or call 0800 PITNEY (748639) (8am to 5pm NZST, Mon-Fri excluding public holidays) and speak to a company representative.

How much does a service call cost?

Onsite service call fees depend on the maintenance/service coverage plan you have purchased. If you do not have a current plan, you will be charged the rate for callout & labour plus any parts required to restore your machine to working condition. Please do not hesitate to email anz.contactus@pb.com or contact the Call Centre on 0800 PITNEY (748639) (8am to 5pm NZST, Mon-Fri excluding public holidays) to discuss our non-FSMA service call pricing.

What is a Full Service Maintenance Agreement (FSMA)?

Alternatively, ask us about placing your equipment on a Full-Service Maintenance Agreement (FSMA). This is an efficient, cost-effective and worry-free way to ensure that if you have a problem*, it is rectified under the FSMA in a timely manner. All service calls placed on equipment under an FSMA receive priority over those without an agreement. We have several FSMA levels to suit your needs.

*Please note, the FSMA excludes malicious damage and machines operating outside specifications.

If you have any questions or require further information, please do not hesitate to email anz.contactus@pb.com or contact us on 0800 PITNEY (748639) (8am to 5pm NZST, Mon-Fri excluding public holidays)
