GENERAL CONDITIONS

We will make all reasonable attempts to provide the provision of service except where it is precluded by:

  • Adverse weather conditions
  • Industrial disputes (official or not)
  • Failure of the public transport system (including the road network) and repair thereto
  • Other circumstances preventing access to your location or otherwise making provision of cover impractical

We shall be entitled to: Decline cover if, in our opinion, the location or services have not been maintained in a safe or serviceable condition. Decide on the most appropriate means of providing cover, although we will take your wishes into account whenever possible.

If you request any additional work to be undertaken you will be responsible for the additional costs. We shall not be responsible for any inconvenience, loss or damage caused by delay in the supply of spare parts or components by the manufacturer or their suppliers or agents. In the event that the parts for the equipment are no longer available, or the equipment is beyond economical repair, we will provide a replacement product based on a model of the same or similar specification. This guarantee is governed by and construed in accordance with the Law of England and Wales and under the jurisdiction of English Courts.

All benefits under this guarantee will be lost if a claim under this guarantee is made that is false or dishonest in any way. Where the equipment is deemed to be beyond economical repair and is replaced under the terms of the guarantee all benefits under the guarantee will cease. In the event that there is another warranty in force covering the Registered Equipment then we shall only pay our rateable proportion of any claim under this agreement. All repairs provided are under the terms of our Repair Terms and Conditions.

The Guarantee Period does not renew with any replacement, refurbished or repaired product received.

We will only use your personal information as set out in our Privacy Policy.

Our aim is at all times to provide a first class standard of service. However, if you feel that this has not been achieved regarding this Guarantee please contact: chris.costello@sync-dev.co.uk
