Our warranty is limited to replacing faulty items or parts and does not include return freight costs unless the returned goods are confirmed faulty. In such a case, we will refund your freight costs. If we cannot replace or repair your returning goods, we will issue a refund using your original payment method.

Unless specified under the Manufacturer's Warranty below, all new products purchased from CustomLink are covered by a back-to-base 12-month manufacturer warranty.
A claim under warranty for repair or replacement must be made within the warranty period, which commences from the purchase date, with evidence of faults and proof of purchase.
To submit a warranty claim, please complete the warranty claim form. Please also refer to our Return and Refund Policy for information on returns and refunds.

Once we receive your claim form, we will assess your claim, and if your claim is accepted, we’ll send instructions on how and where to send your package. We reserve the right to determine the condition and age of any returned goods before offering an exchange, refund, replacement, repair, or compensation. This may also include forwarding the returned goods to the manufacturer for testing. If any items are deemed to have no valid claim under warranty, they will be returned to the customer.
If your claim is not accepted, we will let you know why and what you can do next. There can be several reasons why your claim is not accepted, and this can be because there is no valid proof of purchase, insufficient information or evidence of fault, or a setting or firmware upgrade will fix the issue, which our tech support team can assist you with free of charge.
