user

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'employer' is the definition.
(someone who employs or uses something)

'superior and faultless service' is the wordplay.
'superior' becomes 'U' (U can mean upper-class, as in U and non-U speech).
'and' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'faultless service' becomes 'ser' (I can't explain this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'u'+'ser'='USER'

'requiring' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for user that I've seen before include "one has to employ" , "Utiliser" , "One operating something" , "One who exploits others" , "With 1a [NEW] he'll need different login" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
