Faulty Items under Warranty
If you happen to come across any faulty item, you are requested to immediately raise an RMA request, strictly under the conditions stated in the Terms & Conditions section. To claim the warranty, you will need a few details that will include the order number, purchasing date, and the serial number of the faulty unit. You are advised to mention these in the RMA request. We will confirm if the claimed product is under warranty, and soon after that, one of our representatives will try resolving the issue via phone call or through remote access.
If it continues to be problematic, you will be issued an RMA Number and will be further advised to follow the standard RMA procedures. After the faulty unit has been returned, we will test it against our defined measures and try to resolve the problem. If we find that the item cannot be fixed or repaired, we will send you a replacement unit, which might either be a brand new unit or similar to a fresh piece, with the exact same specifications.
