Review RMA

Upon receipt of your RMA request, we will assess whether the reason you have provided is valid for sending the product to us. Acceptance of the RMA does not mean that we believe that the stated reason is also correct. After receipt of the RMA shipment, BNS NETSTAR assesses whether a claim can be made under warranty and/or repair.

 

DOA (DEAD ON ARRIVAL)

A DOA product is a product that appears to be defective upon receipt. The defective product must be reported within 5 working days of receipt via the RMA procedure. After you have received an RMA form you can return the product. The product must be returned complete with all accessories in the original packaging materials of the relevant product.

If the product is incomplete and/or the original packaging materials are missing, this is not covered by a DOA, and loss costs will be charged. This also applies to products that are broken, heavily damaged or that are returned with a written text/stickers/ tape on the original packaging.

Upon receipt, a DOA product is tested. If it turns out that the product is actually defective and the cause is not due to user errors, a new product will be sent as soon as possible if the relevant manufacturer offers a DOA procedure.

If during testing it appears that the product is not defective, an investigation fee of € 25.00 will be charged, plus € 10.00 if we have to return the product.

 

DEFECTIVE PRODUCT WITHIN WARRANTY PERIOD

If the product becomes defective within the warranty period of BNS NETSTAR, you can claim warranty via our RMA procedure. After you have received an RMA form you can return the product.

After receipt, the product will be tested for functionality. If it appears that the product is actually defective, the product is offered to the manufacturer for repair. After repair, the product will be returned. If the product does not qualify for repair, an equivalent replacement product will be offered.

If during testing it appears that the product is not defective, an investigation fee of € 25.00 will be charged, plus € 10.00 if we have to return the product.

If the defect is caused by things that are excluded by the relevant manufacturer (eg lightning strike, water damage, etc.), the product will not be treated as a warranty. The product then falls under repair at BNS NETSTAR. If repair is not chosen, then € 25.00 in research costs will be charged, plus € 10.00 if we have to return the product.

DEFECTIVE PRODUCT OUT OF WARRANTY PERIOD

When the warranty period has expired or a product is offered that was not supplied by BNS NETSTAR, then € 25.00 in research costs will be charged, plus € 10.00 if we have to return the product.

After investigation, BNS NETSTAR will provide you with a quote of the estimated repair costs or a proposal for a replacement product.

 

PRICES REPAIR

If the repair costs are higher than € 50.00 or > 35% of the recommended retail price, you will receive a quote. If the costs are lower than the stated amount and the percentage of a new product, the product will be repaired without a quote.
