Good evening,

This is an announcement that might change your life.

Now that I have broadband, I would be able to assist anyone who has a broadband connection remotely, without having to move from my comfy cottage.

It will be much cheaper than bringing your Pc to Pc world or the likes, or than getting someone to call out t you.

We could simply arrange some sort of barter or anything ..

Most problems could be fixed as long as the pc physically works and broadband works ... and guidance could be given through phone if there was any parts to change in the Pc.

And of course this can include installing softwares and all.

I have been doing technical support this way (phone) and call out for more than 9 years now, so without being a smart ass, I know my way around them now.

Does that sound like anything you would be remotely interested in ?

Please answer the pole so I have a clue of the general idea on that.

And don't hesitate to ask any questions .

Thanks,
Camile

I usually look after my own and my wife's but a second opinion will always be helpful.

Word of warning to all PC users, be very careful if you use the PC manufacturers online assistance. They have built-in obsolescence in the OME software and will encourage you to upgrade the hardware.

Camile on the other hand will bypass those built in problems and save you a fortune.

come on guys, don't be shy ...

Basically there is nothing hidden in it ..

because the way it works is that you send the request for assistance, ie I don't get access unless you allow me too.

And I would be giving you guidance through a call via Skype or the likes, so we can basically get to know each other first.

And the first thing is that once you allow the connection, I will basically see you screen and what you do. And at that point I still wouldn't have control of the machine.

So you could basically explain me the problem this way .. and depending on your level of "control" of the computer, I could simply tell you what to do without "doing" a thing myself.

And then after that, if things were getting serious, I can ask for control of the machine, and you would see your mouse moving like if it was you controlling it. so there is nothing hidden or that I can hide.

and thanks for the kind words Quarryman and Blowin.

Camile
