Express Repair

Under warranty, you have access to 24x7 technical phone support, as well as onsite support as needed. While most interruptions are resolved with a simple phone call, it may take up to 7–10 days for a certified technician to visit your home or business to restore service, under the warranty. With Express Repair Premium, if a visit is deemed necessary to restore your service, then a technician will be onsite by 5:00pm the next business day.

Express Repair includes a 30-day vesting period for existing HughesNet subscribers. Onsite service within the first 30 days of enrolling in a plan results in a higher co-pay than after the vesting period.

During the vesting period: $99 co-pay

If an onsite visit is required within the 30-day vesting period and you choose to start a new 24-month service commitment, the co-pay fee will be $99.

During the vesting period: $199 co-pay

If an onsite visit is required within the 30-day vesting period and you choose not to start a new 24-month service commitment, the co-pay fee will be $199.

After the vesting period: $24.99 co-pay

If you require onsite service after the 30-day vesting period, the onsite service co-pay will be $24.99.
