Diebold’s Global Service Organization
opens branch in Anchorage
Business growth and development in the United States’ 49th state has led to the opening of a new service branch in Anchorage.  Members of the Diebold service team are working to transition customers from subcontracts with third-party organizations to service relationships with Diebold associates.

Diebold reaches out to customers
impacted by Hurricane Katrina
Millions of people in Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama have been devastated by the effects of Hurricane Katrina.  Among them are 180 Diebold associates and 175 customers who rely on Diebold for service.  Diebold is working with its associates and customers to address their most critical needs, which may include temporary housing for associates and relocation services and temporary office space for customers.

Apart from damage to their facilities, Diebold’s customers may have sustained damage to their ATMs, alarms and security equipment, drive-up banking terminals, safe-deposit boxes, safes, vaults and more.  The following numbers are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week for customer assistance and service calls:

  • Diebold Customer Response Center
    +1 330 498-2650
    800-DIEBOLD (800-343-2653)

  • Diebold Alarm Monitoring Center
    +1 330 498-2306
    800-548-4478

As Diebold continues to contact customers in Alabama, Florida, Louisiana and Mississippi, we will determine the need for increased manufacturing capacity and special offers such as equipment leasing programs, deferred payment programs and more.  For the latest information about such offers and Diebold’s recovery efforts, please visit www.diebold.com/katrinarecovery.
 

Diebold’s Event Monitoring Center
keeps lines of communication open after Katrina
Because long-distance telephone lines and toll-free numbers are usually busy or out of order during natural disasters, the Diebold Event Monitoring Center provides back-up communication plans that can serve as a cost-effective tool for risk management.  During and after Hurricane Katrina, when land-line communication was unreliable, Diebold maintained communications with most of its customers’ security systems using cellular technology or radio back-up connections.
