MBS Return and Refund Policy
PHONES DAMAGED UPON RECEIPT
If your goods arrive in a damaged state or, in non-working condition, (this is termed as “DOA” or “Dead on Arrival” device) or in case of any delivery discrepancy, please contact our customer service. In case they authorize or request you to return the device, then follow the steps to request an RMA (Return Merchandise Authorization) online. Claims for DOA device or of any delivery discrepancy, should be made within seven (7) calendar days of the time the package is delivered to you. Claims will not be accepted after this time. Follow the RMA procedure mentioned below to file a return and accordingly if such claim was made within seven (7) days of the receipt, the good/device will be accepted for return, exchange (with the same device model) or refund as determined by MBS. In case of return or replacement contemplated in this paragraph the cost of shipping will be borne by MBS. However, upon review of a returned DOA device, in the event that, it is determined by MBS that there is No Trouble Found (NTF) with the device as was claimed or alleged, we will return the device back to you upon your payment of the NTF fee and handling and shipping fee as determined by MBS, which shall be subject to a minimum of $150 (USD ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY). Additional charges may apply if all of the items such as the accessories, and other items are not returned along with the device.
PHONES THAT ARE DEFECTIVE.
If a device is defective, i.e., operationally defective and fails to operate properly on boot or use as applicable and any DOA claim is not made within seven (7) days from the receipt of the device or if the DOA claim made within the specified time after evaluating the claim is refused by MBS, and if such device is within the warranty period as extended by the original equipment manufacturer (OEM), you will need to contact the OEM in connection with such warranty claim and not MBS.
REFUSED AND UNACCEPTED PACKAGES
For refused and unaccepted packages/goods/items, the shipping cost and return shipping costs including handling fees are responsibility of the customer and in the event the package/item is not requested to be redelivered within thirty (30) days, we shall refund you the cost of the product, after deduction of the shipping costs/fees and a handling fee, which shall be reasonable charge incurred by MBS for the care of the refused goods/device.
