Faulty goods

Faulty goods policy for consumers

If your product has developed a fault which you cannot fix using the product manual, please do not just return the product or complete a 'not as described' complaint on eBay. 70% of problems we receive can be resolved by telephone without the return of the product, saving you time and return fees. If the product has to be returned then please refer to these steps:

  1. In line with the Consumer Rights Act 2015, if your product develops a fault within 30 days of receipt then you are entitled to a full refund, repair or replacement. Please note: No refund will be issued until goods are received back and inspected. If a fault is found and this has not been caused by a manufacturing defect, a refund will not be issued and we will charge for any repairs.
  2. After the first 30 days, we will repair or replace any product returned to us, unfortunately we cannot offer a refund after the first 30 days.
  3. All items to be returned must have an RMA number issued by us, call 01908 972 660 to obtain a returns number. Any goods returned to us without an RMA may be refused.

Faulty goods policy for businesses

  1. Please inform us within 5 working days if your goods are faulty or damaged on receipt, we will arrange for a replacement to be sent once we have received the faulty item.
  2. After 5 working days, the goods are deemed as used so we recommend unpacking your product as soon as possible to avoid return issues.
  3. If after discussing with our engineers the item needs to be returned, you must obtain an RMA number and return the goods to us for repair or replacement. All items must be within warranty period for the repairs to be free of charge, any fault found to be not a manufacturing defect will be subject to repair costs.
