Return Shipping / Warranty Service

To obtain warranty service contact your local authorised Iris vendor. If you purchased directly from Iris then contact your local Iris branch. You will be provided shipping instructions and an RMA tracking number. Please note, the RMA tracking number is a reference number generated to allow you to track the progress of the repair and does not relate to any shipping reference. You will need to provide the product serial number and a copy of the original sales receipt / invoice which is required as proof of purchase for warranty repairs. The product serial number and/or invoice reference will be used to determine whether the item is still covered within its original warranty period, or extended warranty period if applicable. Providing the goods are covered by the warranty term you will be issued with your RMA reference number. Securely pack the device along with a copy of the RMA form you will be issued. Please note – failure to securely pack the goods when returning may also result in the warranty becoming invalid as damage caused through poorly packaged shipments is not covered by the warranty. Please ensure, when returning any goods to us, they are appropriately packed so as not to cause any damage which may invalidate your warranty. Iris are not responsible for any products that are lost during shipping and recommends consignments are adequately insured.

When your RMA reference is issued you will be provided a return shipping address in accordance with your location. The costs of returning items for warranty repair are not covered by the warranty, although Iris may arrange collection at its discretion depending on the circumstances. The same applies to any customs charges that may arise as a result of having to ship goods internationally for repair.

Upon receipt of the goods, Iris will, at its option, repair or replace (with a new or newly-overhauled replacement product) the device or software or offer a full refund of the purchase price.

If, upon inspection, Iris deem the goods to be in working order and in condition satisfactory to its age, Iris will notify the customer with details of their findings. Iris reserve the right to apply an inspection fee in this circumstance.

If, upon inspection it is clear that any damage has occurred as a result of any of the exceptions listed in the section ‘Exceptions’, the warranty claim will be rendered void. We will notify the customer and advise the cost to cover the inspection, replacement or repair of the goods as well as a return shipping cost. In this circumstance, Iris reserve the right to retain the goods until the costs quoted to remedy the warranty claim, be it the inspection cost only or the inspection cost  plus repair/replacement costs are paid in full.

Iris will endeavour to process warranty return claims as soon as possible so as not to inconvenience the customer, however firm turn around times cannot be given.
