Returns Policy
Return Authorisation (RA) Policy
When returning product to Technologies 2000 for any reason, you must first contact us and obtain an RA number from the Technical/Service department.
After obtaining an RA number from Technologies 2000, you must send the product - freight prepaid by you – to Technologies 2000. The Technologies 2000 RA number must be prominently displayed on the outside of your package. If you send your product to Technologies 2000 without the RA number prominently displayed on the outside of the package, it will be returned to you unopened.
Please use a shipping company that can demonstrate proof of delivery. Technologies 2000 does not accept responsibility for any lost shipments unless proof of delivery to Technologies 2000 is provided.
When shipping your product back to Technologies 2000 for repair/replacement please ship, the product only. Do not return any accessories or packaging. Technologies 2000 will then return the product to you in the same packaging that you sent it to us. Products shipped to Technologies 2000 must be properly packaged to prevent loss or damage in transit.
Shipping your RA to Technologies 2000 using regular mailing envelopes is not acceptable, as they do not protect the product from damage during shipping.
Technologies 2000 will not repair or replace a product that is shipped in such a way that the product is not properly protected.
Technologies 2000 will not accept any product that has been damaged as a result of accident, abuse, misuse, natural or personal disaster, or any unauthorized disassemble, repair or modification.
