For details of any guarantee that may be provided by the manufacturer in addition to your statutory legal rights please contact our customer service team via shop@yourvets.co.uk

Some products come with a one or two year guarantee whilst others have no free guarantee other than those which you are legally entitled to under the sale of goods act. Goods cannot always be expected to work fault free. They can break down through normal use. Consumers cannot, therefore, expect to hold us responsible for fair wear and tear. There needs to be a fault that was present on the day of sale even though it only became apparent later on.

You will be responsible for the cost of returning the item however we will send the replacement or repaired or replacement item back to you free of charge

On rare occasions where a replacement or repair may not be in your best interests we may agree to offering you an alternative product of equal value or a credit voucher for the value of the goods, at the discretion of the management.
