Warranty Claims
Media5 Products that fall under a warranty claim must be reported to Media5 or an Authorized Media5 Corporation Distributor or Reseller from whom you originally purchased the unit.
Customers having a Service Level Agreement with Media5 Corporation can report and return defective Products directly to Media5 by following the RMA Policy & Procedure described below.
During the Warranty period, Media5 will either repair or replace, at its option, the defective product. If the returned product is found upon examination by Media5 not to be defective, the customer agrees to bear the freight charges incurred in returning the product to the user as well as a “No Fault Found” charge to Media5 as per the RMA Policy & Procedure described below.
Warranty claims performed after the applicable warranty period will be considered as an Out-of-Warranty Repair. Media5 will request a credit card number or purchase order corresponding to the estimated repair fee from the RMA requester prior to authorizing the return.
Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) Policy & Procedure
Media5 does not allow return of Media5 Products except in cases of verifiable malfunction of the Products. In the case where Products do malfunction, prior to returning any Product, a Return Material Authorization (RMA) from Media5 must be obtained. The Product shall be shipped to Media5’s point of origin, freight pre-paid, with a valid RMA number clearly displayed on the outside of the package(s). Sender will pay all shipping charges, taxes, and tariffs to return a defective Product to Media5 and Media5 will pay all charges excluding all brokerage fees, duties, and/or taxes necessary to ship the repaired Product or replacement Product back to the sender.
Special notes:
- Sender will pay all return shipping charges plus fees for out-of-warranty repairs or if no fault was found on the Product.
- Any Product returned without a valid RMA number displayed outside will be sent back to the client, freight collect, and no credit will be granted.
- Any additional damages incurred due to improper packaging by the sender will be repaired at the cost of the sender.
