Returns Procedure

First of all we pride ourselves on exceptional service and outstanding value, so if you have a problem with any purchase through www.westlakeaudio.co.uk we are here to help.

 

Westlake Audio provide a standard 12 month warranty on all new products and a 30 day warranty on all pre-owned goods unless stated , this does not included ‘ trade sales / clearence and broken items’. If you believe your product may be faulty and it is within the agreed guarantee period then please call us on 07967 670522 stating that you are looking to return an item purchased through www.westlakeaudio.co.uk and you will be directed to the appropriate department where we will do our best to either solve the problem or arrange to have the product returned as soon as possible. Alternatively, you can e-mail us at www.westlakeaudio.co.uk

 

Please also consider that a problem with a product may be due to part of the operation that you had not considered, e.g. in the case of hardware you have purchased, it may have been fitted incorrectly or another part of your equipment may be defective or faulty. Where possible we will assist with this over the phone and hopefully resolve the issue without putting you to the inconvenience of returning the product.

 

If your product is returned to us, we will test the item to confirm that there is a manufacturing fault. As long as the item is returned, ‘as new’ containing all accessories and original packaging, we will dispatch a replacement unit where available to you at no extra cost. Where an item may no longer be available in this case, we will do our best to ensure we can provide an alternative or issue you with a full refund.

 

If we receive a returned item and in testing by a qualified engineer discover that the fault is the result of misuse, e.g., the item has been dropped, the speakers or equipment have been blown due to being overdriven/ underdriven etc, the return will be considered as a non-warranty repair and will be subject to a repair charge.
