Law/Patents - Law: Contract(s) / dienstverleningscontract
Dutch term or phrase: dienstverleningscontract
Dit is een contract dat de huur van bepaalde ruimten en andere diensten die door een organisatie geleverd worden regelt. Eurodicautom gaf mij "service contract", maar ik associeer dat meer met een "onderhoudscontract", wat dit dus niet is. Heeft iemand een betere uitdrukking?

Service Contracts

Q. What is a service contract?
A. A service contract specifically covers car repairs and maintenance for a set period of time. Manufacturers, contract companies, insurance companies, and car dealers offer
service contracts.

Q. Should I purchase a service contract on my automobile right away?
A. If you buy one at all, you should consider waiting until your warranty period expires.
After all, why pay extra for duplicate coverage?

How a Service Contract Differs from a Warranty

Unlike a warranty, a service contract may not come from the manufacturer. Service contracts are optional and expensive, and often, coverage overlaps the warranty protection. Also, a service contract often contains more limitations and exclusions than a
warranty, may require you to pay a deductible fee, and might not cover all parts and labor or routine maintenance. If a service contract is available on a used car, the appropriate box
must be checked on the Buyers Guide.
Finally, if you believe that your service contract has been breached, in addition to any state remedies available to you, you may be able to sue under the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, and recover your attorney\'s fees and court costs, as well as your damages.

A service contract is not necessarily associated with maintenance. An alternative would be \'Service Agreement\' as in \'Service Level Agreement\' or SLA.

  -> Thank you vey much!

neutral  xxxjarry: Service agreement gets 1,730,000 hits! Could it be an indication that "service provision contract" is not quite as commonly used as 'service agreement'? I just hope it doesn't make you go bananas ...
