In order to initiate this dispute resolution process, you must first send us a written description of your problem or dispute within thirty (30) days of the Services being performed by sending an email to support@Boxxie.com.
You then agree to negotiate with Boxxware in good faith about your problem or dispute. This should lead to resolution, but if for some reason your problem or dispute is not resolved satisfactorily within sixty (60) days after Boxxwares’ receipt of your written description of it, you agree to the further arbitration provisions below.
