Terms and Conditions.

Our terms and conditions as set out below apply to all transactions on or relating to the Square Deal Electrical web site. Some items may be Sold as an Agent of Euronics, and Terms and Conditions applied by Euronics will supersede our Terms and Conditions in that event, these items will be clearly marked on our website.

Terms and Conditions may change from time to time; changes will be posted here and will apply to all subsequent orders received. These terms do not affect your statutory rights.

Delivery

All prices on the Square Deal Electrical web site include VAT and Delivery unless otherwise stated. Deliveries are to local addresses only as indicated on the ‘Areas We Cover’ page of our website.

Upon receipt of your order we will contact you by phone to arrange delivery (you will usually be contacted same or next working day), unfortunately we are not able to say at what time of day an item will be delivered, however, if you call our Sales team any time after 9AM on the day of delivery we can advise a 2 hour window for the delivery.

All goods are subject to availability and whilst every effort is made to deliver goods within the time scales specified delays are sometimes unavoidable. We will inform you of any delays as we are made aware of them. In the event that there is an unacceptable delay for goods you have already paid for you may cancel the order (prior to dispatch), and we will give you a full refund providing the delay is not a result of any special arrangements you have requested. Cancellations after dispatch may be subject to a return cost.

Most manufacturers have a shut down period over Christmas and New Year, which will obviously result in some delays to orders over this time. Some manufacturers also have a summer shut down period, which may affect delivery on some orders. Our Sales team will advise details of such delays when they contact you.

Delivery other than our usual service may incur an additional charge; any additional charge will be confirmed by phone. Standard delivery is a single manned vehicle delivering to ground floor properties, or double manned vehicles on some larger products. Failure to advise us of reasons why standard delivery might not be possible may result in a charge for failed delivery.

Please inspect your goods prior to signing for them; if goods are damaged or incorrect do not accept the delivery. Contact us as soon as possible, preferably while the delivery driver is still there. We strongly recommend that you do not sign the delivery note before inspecting the goods, most delivery notes state that the goods are correct and in good condition, when you sign the delivery note you are indicating that you agree to that statement which makes it more difficult to resolve any problems later.

Goods should only be delivered to the address your credit or debit card is registered to. In some circumstances we may be able to offer delivery to alternate addresses, although we may request that you make payment by alternate means. Delivery should only be made to the final destination of the product, as damage resulting from transit will not be covered if you have transported the product since delivery. If you need to arrange onward transport of a product any damage later found would be the responsibility of the person or company transporting the goods onward for you. All goods delivered must be signed for by an adult aged 18 years or over.

Delivery dates / timescales are accurate at the time we advise you of them. Square Deal Electrical cannot accept responsibility for failed deliveries and will not accept any claim for compensation for loss of time or other expenses subject to the delivery not being made on the originally indicated date or time.

Removal and Installation

Removal of your old appliance and/or connection of your new appliance (to existing services only) can usually be arranged. There is normally an extra charge for this displayed on the website. Removal and/or connection should be requested at the time of order but may be added prior to the scheduled delivery date.

If you request removal, the existing appliance must be disconnected before the new product arrives (not necessary if you have also requested installation). If you request installation Electrical points, Gas pipes, water pipes, and waste pipes to be connected to must be in good condition and safe (in accordance with current regulations and manufacturers requirements). If the installation personnel are unable to complete the installation (and/or removal) due to the old product still being in place or due to incorrect or unsafe pipe work or wiring the charge for arranging this service will still apply. If you are changing from a Gas Appliance to an Electric Appliance the existing Gas feed must be capped by a Gas Safe engineer prior to installation of the Electrical Appliance.

If you are arranging installation by a third party we suggest you do not book the installation until after the product has arrived and been inspected.

Ordering

You can order using our secure server (instructions are given on each page), or by telephoning our sales team on 01582 751666. We try to ensure all information on our web site is correct and accurate; details are provided by the Manufacturer, or obtained from web sites, brochures and promotional literature.

If we discover an error (including errors in price) we will contact you immediately to give you the option of reconfirming your order, and we will correct the error as soon as possible.

Line drawings and dimensions are for guidance only, you should always check with the manufacturer for exact measurements before commissioning kitchen fitters to build units specifically for certain models. The line drawings supplied by the manufacturer show approximate sizes and should not be relied upon to be exact.

Square Deal Electrical reserves the right to withdraw goods from sale at any time.

Payment can be made using most major credit and debit cards, cheque, bankers’ draft or cash. We do not make a charge for credit card transactions. All cards used should be registered to a UK address. Cash must be paid in person at our Dunstable sales office and cheques or bankers’ drafts must have your full name and address written on the back. Cheques and Bankers Drafts should be made payable to "Square Deal Electrical". We require all cheques and bankers’ drafts to clear before we will process your order. If you wish to pay by cheque, bankers’ draft or cash please contact our sales team for further details. Acceptance of your order is taken to be when cheque and bankers draft payments have cleared, acceptance of credit or debit card orders is taken to be once the transaction has been settled by the card issuer. We will verify all debit and credit card details with the card issuer before processing your order. In the event that we do not contact you within 2 working days of you placing your order please telephone our sales team. The order number on the automated response is a temporary number and will change once your order is processed, you will receive a receipt with your equipment.

When placing an order please ensure that the invoice address you give is the address your credit card is registered to, and the name you give is the cardholder name as it appears on the card. Failure to do so will result in your transaction being declined and delays in processing your order.

After Sales Service

If you experience any problems with your purchase we recommend that you check the relevant section of your instruction manual before arranging for service. In our experience many apparent faults can be solved quickly and easily in this way.

All Appliances supplied by Square Deal Electrical have a minimum of 12 months full parts and labour guarantee (for domestic use) excluding parts and accessories. The guarantees are given by the manufacturers, in most cases the after sales service is handled by the manufacturers own service organisation. Details on how to arrange service should be supplied with the product. If you have difficulties arranging service or are unhappy with the service supplied by the manufacturer please contact our Sales team on 01582 751666. Please advise us of any contact names or reference numbers you have been given as well as the nature of the problem.

The following information may assist you in deciding whether or not to purchase an extended warranty:

Your Statutory Rights

Whether or not you purchase an extended warranty, as a consumer you have various statutory rights that apply to the purchase of your goods. These include the right to claim for a repair or replacement up to six years (five in Scotland) if your electrical goods were not of satisfactory quality or fit for their purpose when sold. Within the first six months, the burden of proof is on the retailer to establish that the goods you purchased were of satisfactory quality and fit for their purpose. However, after the first six months, you will have to prove that the goods had a fault when sold to you. Please be aware that this does NOT cover faults that develop during the normal life of the product, it relates to faults present at the time of purchase. Further information on your rights can be obtained from your local Trading Standards Department.

Other Extended Warranty Providers

We offer a range of extended warranties for your purchase. Extended warranties may also be available from other high street outlets, insurance companies and other providers. Extended warranty cover may also be available free if your purchase was made using certain credit cards, please check with your credit card issuer.

Household Insurance

Some household contents insurance policies cover for accidental damage, fire or theft of electrical goods. However, an excess may be payable and a claim mat effect the cost of subsequent insurance premiums.

You Do Not Have To Purchase An Extended Warranty At The Same Time As You Purchase Your Electrical Goods

You are entitled to shop around for extended warranty. (We will be happy to offer you a written quotation for the price and duration of one of our extended warranties, which will remain valid for 30 calendar days from the date of issue of the written quotation. Any offers, such as discounts/vouchers etc., which are linked to the purchase of the extended warranty will also remain available for that period).

Comparing Extended Warranty

When comparing prices for extended warranty remember to check what is actually being covered. Not all policies cover call out, parts, labour and replacements and some providers restrict you to specific places to purchase replacements from.

Your right to cancel and receive a full refund

If you decide to purchase an extended warranty for one of our electrical goods, you have the right to cancel that extended warranty within 45 calendar days and receive a full refund provided no claim has been made under the terms of the extended warranty.

You will be sent a reminder of this right at least 20 calendar days before this period runs out.

Right to Terminate

You will also have the right to terminate the extended warranty at any time after the 45 day cancellation period and receive a pro rata refund of the amount paid. The amount refunded will be calculated in proportion to the number of complete unexpired months of protection remaining.

If you make a claim under the terms of the extended warranty during the 45 day cancellation period you will not be eligible to cancel the extended warranty policy and receive a full refund. However, should you wish you will still be able to terminate the extended warranty after that period and receive a pro rata refund in relation to the number of complete months remaining before the expiry of the extended warranty. You may give notice of your intention to cancel or terminate the extended warranty in person, by telephone or in writing to the address shown on your policy document.

Financial Protection

Our extended warranties are provided by a UK based insurance company (Retra Insurance Services) which means that if the provider gets into financial difficulty, money from the financial Services Compensation Scheme will be paid to you so will not lose out.

Continuous Cover

If you decide to replace the electrical goods during the life of this extended warranty your warranty cover will cease, and no refund will be payable.

Claims

If you make a claim under this extended warranty Retra Insurance Services will continue to provide coverage under the warranty until its expiration date, provided that the goods are economically repairable in relation to the aged value of the goods.

All goods supplied by Square Deal Electrical are for domestic use only unless otherwise stated, if you are planning to use them for business purposes please make sure you have appropriate insurance cover.

Free extended warranties that are occasionally offered by manufacturers are usually by redemption, this means that you will receive a form with the product which must be completed and returned to the manufacturer to qualify for the extra warranty. Failure to complete the form and return it in the required time will mean your guarantee period will remain at the standard 12 months. Upon receipt of your completed form the manufacturer will send you confirmation of your extended warranty and a policy, which you should keep safe along with a copy of your invoice. Other manufacturers offers usually operate in the same way, failure to complete your redemption form and return it to the manufacturer in time will result in not receiving the item on offer. Please do not send your forms to Square Deal Electrical unless specifically asked to do so as this will result in delays processing your claim.

Refunds and Returns

If a service or product you have paid for is not received please contact our Sales team. The situation will be rectified, or a refund will be given, usually within 10 working days of your details being confirmed. We require written confirmation of all cancellations made after payment has been taken.

If for any reason you are unhappy with your purchase you may cancel your contract with us and return the goods. This applies solely to online orders, returns of items purchased in other ways will be at our discretion but the following rules will still apply. Your request to cancel must be made in writing within 7 working days from the day after delivery. You are required throughout the

period prior to return to retain the goods and take reasonable care of them. All goods being returned must be unused and in their original undamaged packaging along with all accessories. If the item, packaging or accessories are missing or damaged the uplift and refund will be refused.

If you wish to return an item please contact our Sales team who will advise you of the procedure and any relevant reference numbers you may need. Returns other than those covered by the guarantee will be at the customers’ expense. Return costs will be treated as a separate transaction; the amount will be confirmed prior to arranging the return. Returns must be authorised by Square Deal Electrical, unannounced returns will not be accepted. Additional packaging should be used where necessary to ensure the safe carriage of the goods. The cost of the uplift will not be refunded if the item is refused for any of the above reasons or any other valid reason.

Exceptions to the returns policy are: Special Orders, Goods made to the consumers personal specification / clearly personalised goods, Goods which by reason of their nature cannot be returned, Goods liable to deteriorate or expire rapidly, Audio or Video recordings or Computer software which have been opened by the consumer. Kitchen Units, spares and accessories are special orders, as are some products, particularly those that are made to order (this is usually those products that have a long delivery lead time).

In some cases the manufacturer may wish to arrange the refund and/or return, in which case details of their procedure will be advised when they contact you. For goods being returned directly to the manufacturer we will require a signed copy of your collection note before we can process your refund. In all cases where a product is being returned the item (or items) will be inspected for signs of damage, installation or use when they are received and you will be notified of any costs for which you are liable or the refund will not be authorised. Costs arising from damaged returns may be deducted from the final amount refunded or charged as a separate transaction. Credit card refunds will only be made to the card used for the original transaction.

Fixed Priced Repairs

Fixed Price repairs relate to items with a single fault, products with more than one fault may have a higher cost to repair but you will be notified if this is the case before work proceeds. If more than one fault is noted on your appliance you would only be charged for the additional parts required, wherever possible we will complete repairs for the single price stated. Some parts are excluded from the Fixed Price Repairs including but not limited to: replacement of Motors, Complete Cabinets, Tub/Drums and PCB’s. In the event that your appliance needs one of these parts you will be quoted separately and could be an average additional cost plus and minus £60.00 but may vary to a degree. If you are quoted extra to complete a repair and decide not to proceed or it is not possible to complete a repair due to unobtainable parts or excessive costs you will be credited for the repair costs already paid. This is extremely rare though as the vast majority of all repairs booked online are completed for the standard Fixed Price shown.

All repairs carried out are covered by 6 months service warranty. This covers only the parts fitted to complete the repair / service and is not a warranty against other faults that may develop. If we notice a part that is likely to fail soon whilst carrying out a repair for you we will advise you of the possibility and give you the option of having it replaced at the same time to save on future costs.
