Support for SPL WorldGroup Products

Effective June 4, 2007, the initial point of contact for SPL product support is now through the Oracle Global Customer Support (GCS) systems and infrastructure and no longer through the SPL support hotline or support portals.

Beginning January 1, 2007, you will no longer go through SPL WorldGroup to renew your support contract. This process will be transitioned to Oracle Support Sales, with processing resuming in March 2007. However, you will continue to be supported—even if your support expires during this transitional period—as long as you have an active support contract or you have received a SPL WorldGroup support invoice as of November 2, 2006.

If your support term has already expired, an Oracle Support Sales Representative will contact you beginning in March 2007, otherwise our practice is to contact customers 90 days in advance of the expiration of the current support term to discuss the renewal.

Oracle will work with you to migrate your support contract to a standard Oracle support offering and a standard Oracle support contract. The Oracle contract will then govern the support services for the next term. Please note that Oracle will not be renewing contracts for the SPL WorldGroup support services.

For more information about the Oracle Support Offerings, please go to http://www.oracle.com/support/index.html .

As the transition is completed, an Oracle Support Sales representative will contact you about your renewal.
