 What you should expect

  • Our Customer Care team will acknowledge receipt of the enquiry within 48 hours, request additional information or advise you of the next step. In some cases, we may request you to send the items for a technical inspection before we can determine whether you are applicable for a warranty claim. In that case, you will be responsible for the shipping costs for the return of your item. But keep your receipt, you may be eligible for a refund. See next section.
  • Once our Customer Care team has all the information, they will assess your claim and you will receive an answer in 10 working days (maximum). With the following possible outcomes:
  • Faulty - Approved for repair. In this case, we will get our service team to perform any repairs. We will cover the cost of the repairs and shipping costs to send it back to you and refund you of the shipping cost incurred to send the product to us.
  • Faulty - Approved for replacement. In this case, we will replace the product with the most suitable alternative if the exact product is no longer available. We will cover the shipping costs to send it back to you and refund you of the shipping cost incurred to send the faulty product to us.
  • Non-Faulty. In this instance, the cause for the damage would have been determined to be outside the manufacturer’s warranty terms. In some cases, we will be able to supply a quote for the repairs that you can approve at your will, otherwise, you will be advised to collect your item. We will hold the product for 1 month, if after that period your item has not been collected, we will discard it.
