Returned devices takes up to 5 working days to get to us. Refundable deposit is issued within 10 working days after we have received the returned device.

We shall be under no liability to pay any compensation or addition payment/amount beyond refunding your refundable deposit if your refundable deposit is refunded back to you late.

Rental/transaction charges and handling

Rental fees: Hire/renting fees charged is for the use of the device and would start from the start of hire date you provided when you placed your order until the date end of your hire date. If the device is returned late, the your hire period would be considered as extended hire up to the date it was sent back to us (even if the device was not used during the extra days).

Late fees(late return of device): Device must be posted back to us no the end of date. Any late return will be treated as extended hire and charged at a minimum daily hire extension fee of £10 per day, per device plus a £10 admin charge for administration fee relating to the late return of the device. Hence if you wish to extend your hire, it is your responsibility to email us at before the end of hire date, and an online payment invoice (which needs to be paid before the end of your hire) would be sent out to you. These fees would be deducted from your refundable deposit.

Transaction Charge: We use a payment processing company to handle the processing of payments. A none refundable transaction fee is charged for each transaction processed by the payment processing company that handles the transaction. So If you decide to cancel your hire within the time period that is valid for a refund , the transaction fee charged by the payment processing company and any other cost associated with processing your transaction would be deducted from any amount that would be refunded back to you.

Returning the wifi device and Late return of device

You are responsible for the return of the wifi device. The device should be returned by using the pre-paid (FREE) return postage envelope that is supplied in your package and popped into any United Kingdom post box. If your forget to post the device back to us on time you would be charged for the extended period/days you had the device with you (minimum of £10 per day plus an admin fees).

Cancellation and refunds

No refund (except your refundable deposit) is given if your hire is for 1 to 3 days hire and you cancel your order after your assigned device has been dispatched(sent/posted).

If you are eligible for any refund, the following would be deducted from the refund amount
– £10 Admin charge
– Delivery Charge (even if you got a promotional free delivery)
– Transaction fees charged by the payment processing company
Refunds are issued 1 to 10 working days after we have received the returned device and the cancellation has been processed. The transaction fee charged by the payment processing company and any other cost associated with processing your transaction or associated with your refund would be deducted from any amount that would be refunded back to you.

Delivery delay caused by logistic issue after a device(s) has been dispatched

A device is considered delayed if the delivery or attempted delivery of your assigned device was made after your start of hire date. If the delivery company/person attempted to deliver your assigned device on or before your start date, but no one was available to accept the package , this would be considered as the device was delivered on time.

If the a delivery attempt was made “after your start date” and you had ordered before our last dispatch time at least 1 working day before your start of hire date, then this would be considered a late delivery, hence your hire period may be switched/downgraded to the next available lower number of days hire option we provide for the device hire package you had hired. Example: if you hired for 8 days, and your hire was delayed for 1 day, your hire would be reduced to a 7 days hire package ad the one day difference would be refunded back to your payment account at the end of your hire period after the returned device has been received. But if for example you hired a “1-3 days” package (1-3 days hire option is a bundled number of days hire) and your device was delayed for 1 day, there would be no refund for the 1 day difference because you would still be within the 1 to 3 days hire range period.

No compensation would be given for the delay apart for the value of the number of days hire eligible for (as explained above) difference for the package you hired, and this would be issued after the returned device has been received at the end of your hire period.

If you prefer to cancel your hire due to the delivery delay caused by the delivery company, you can do so by rejecting the package when it gets delivered to you and notifying us you have decided to cancel due to the late delivery by the delivery company used. Any eligible hire refund will be issued after the returned device has been received.

Delivery delay caused by your order being received after the last dispatch time

If the delivery of your assigned device would arrive after your start of hire date due to your order being received after our last dispatch time (as shown on our delivery information page ), then we would likely send you an email to notify you of when your device would be dispatched (this would be based on the process explained in our delivery information page).

If you decide not to proceed with the hire any longer, and you notify us before the device has been dispatched, then a full refund would be issued to you.

If you decide not to proceed with the hire any longer, and you notify us after the device has already been processed for dispatch, you would need to reject the package when it gets delivered to you. The cost of delivery, the non refundable transaction fee charged by the payment processing company we use for handling payments and any additional cost incurred in sending out the device would be deducted from your payment and the remaining would be refunded back to you after the returned device arrives back with us.
