These must be returned to 360 Technologies in the original packaging. Failure to ensure that all items are properly packaged and transported will void all warranties.

Shipping Damage / Shipping Shortages / Freight Claims: Please examine equipment IMMEDIATELY upon receipt. It is the customer’s responsibility to properly inspect and count all shipments for damage or shortages prior to signing the airbill or bill of lading from the delivery carrier. If damage or shortage is present, the customer MUST notify the driver and clearly note the damage or shortage on the airbill or bill of lading prior to signing for the shipment. NO EXCEPTIONS! Failure to properly note damage or shortage at the time of delivery will result in a void of warranty, inability to file a freight claim, and no RMA will be issued. Once damage or shortage is noted the customer must contact their salesperson for instructions within (24) hours of equipment receipt. In the event of shipping damage, it is recommended that digital photos be taken if possible for use in the claims process. If damage was properly noted, and the shipment was sent on 360 Technologies’ account, we will file the freight claim with our carrier. Do not repackage or return damaged equipment until instructed by your salesperson, as an inspection by the carrier may be required. If the customer requires a replacement shipment, they will be invoiced in full for the second shipment. When 360 Technologies receives the freight claim payment from the carrier, we will apply that payment to the original invoice for the amount received less any applicable fees. In the event of a shortage please retain all packaging and contact your sales rep immediately.

 

 

Requesting an RMA: All equipment purchased from 360 Technologies is in refurbished condition unless specified otherwise in writing prior to shipment. 360 Technologies, Inc., shall determine if defective equipment is to be repaired, replaced or refunded. No exceptions.

 

Customers requesting a return are to contact their original sales rep. Website customers will be directed to our web order representative. Customers may then be asked to troubleshoot the problem with one of our authorized HP technicians.

 

Customers will then be required to complete our RMA Request Form to include the following required information:

Upon receipt of the RMA Request Form, 360 Technologies will authorize or reject the RMA request within (24) hours of receipt. Once a valid RMA number has been issued, the customer is to pack defective items carefully for return. Damage or loss as a result of improper packaging will invalidate both the RMA and the warranty. 360 Technologies is not responsible for goods that are damaged during return shipments or misused/abused by the customer or their designated carrier. We recommend you insure the return shipment. Damages incurred in the transportation of uninsured shipments are the customers responsibility and will void all warranties.
