If Total GSM didn’t finish the repair within a period of three (3) weeks and the buyer wishes to recover his device, no estimate will be charged, but only the shipping costs.

ARTICLE 6 – GUARANTEES

Our repairs are guaranteed for three (3) months.

Total GSM guarantees all repairs on the motherboard for 3 months. Any claim on services or repairs must be made within this time on presentation of the invoice. Any claim made outside this period can not be accepted. The commercial contractual warranty covers the manual labor, spare part or parts changed during the repair.

In case of return under warranty, for a repair performed by us, the manual labor will be supported by Total GSM for a period of 3 months from the date of receipt of the material by the buyer, the invoice being proof. After this period, the manual labor cost will be the charge of the buyer.

The warranties do not cover the consequences of the abnormal and non-compliant use of products originating from the intervention of the buyer or repairer other than Total GSM. Any guarantee is void in case of misuse or negligence attributable to the customer. There will be no guarantee from Total GSM in case of modification of equipment, accident or shock, deliberate deterioration, damage caused by water, fire, humidity, lightning. No guarantee will be applicable in case of abnormal use.

In the event of immobilization of the device for repair, any period of immobilization of the good of at least five (5) days is added to the duration of the guarantee which remained on the date when the device was available and usable, if it is posterior to this one. Practically, the warranty period begins upon receipt of the repaired material, by the buyer. The intervention and repair times depend on the time needed to supply the parts needed to repair the device.

If, within the period of 3 (three) months, the buyer has a claim to make and Total GSM is on vacation, the days of vacation will be added to the deadline and the buyer may make the claim after the vacation.

At the end of the commercial contractual guarantee, and during the period during which Total GSM will be able to obtain the parts, new or used, necessary for the repair of the concerned devices, or will have these parts in its stocks, Total GSM will assure, if it is appropriate for the buyer, the repair of the device according to the conditions and prices displayed in the site of Total GSM on the day of the request for service.

The shipping cost and return insurance will be in the charge of the Buyer if he returns the equipment to the Total GSM for repair, even if the repair is guaranteed.

If the customer only sends the motherboard, Total GSM is not responsible for the assembly and mounting did after the repair. During assembly, the customer can reverse the screws or he can manipulate the motherboard under electrical voltage, and create a short circuit, so the motherboard can deteriorate. It is therefore advisable that the customer sends the complete phone. Before returning the motherboard (or phone) to the customer, Total GSM will always test it entirety only if the access codes will be provided. Otherwise, the motherboard will be partially tested.

ARTICLE 7 – RETURNS UNDER WARRANTY

In case of returning a device which under warranty, for a repair made by us, shipping costs and return insurance will be in the charge of the Buyer if he returns the equipment to Total GSM for repair.

ARTICLE 8 – ESTIMATE

Any device repair comes with an estimate, billed to the customer at the prices and conditions appearing in the catalog made available to the customer on the site. From the date of issue of the estimate, the buyer has a period of 30 days to accept the estimate that will be sent. If the customer accepts the repair, the amount of the estimate will be deducted from the invoice (besides when there is a hidden problem of the device). If the buyer refuses the repair, the quote will be billed according to the price announced on the website.
