RETURNING FOR REFUND

You have a legal right to cancel an order for items sold on the E-CIGS KENYA Website during the Cooling Off Period set out below. This means that, during the Cooling Off Period, if you change your mind or for any other reason you decide you do not want to keep a E-CIGS KENYA Product, you can notify us of your decision to cancel the order and you are entitled to a full refund of the purchase price of any unopened, saleable, in brand new condition, and unused E-CIGS KENYA Products purchased within this time period. We will process the refund due to you within fourteen days of receiving the E-CIGS KENYA Products back, but in any case, in accordance with your consumer rights. Your legal right to cancel will end fourteen (14) calendar days from the date that the E-CIGS KENYA Products are delivered* to you (the "Cooling Off Period").

To be eligible for a refund you MUST report your request to our team within the Cooling Off Period. You may wish to keep a copy of your cancellation notification for your own records. If you send us your cancellation notice by e-mail or by post, then your cancellation is effective from the date you sent us the e-mail or posted the letter to us. If you call us to notify us of your cancellation, then your cancellation is effective from the date you telephone us.

As a consumer, you have legal rights in relation to E-CIGS KENYA Products that are faulty or not as described. If you have returned the E-CIGS KENYA Products to us because they are faulty or mis-described, we will refund the price of a defective E-CIGS KENYA Product in full, along with any applicable delivery charges and any reasonable costs you incur in returning the E-CIGS KENYA Product to us, as long as the issue has been reported as soon as it is noticed and the faulty E-CIGS KENYA Products are within their warranties.

DEAD ON ARRIVAL PROMISE

At E-CIGS KENYA, we offer a “Dead on Arrival Promise” on all our products. This means that should you receive a faulty product, you may return it within 30 calendar days for a full replacement or refund.

Nothing in this section will affect your legal rights in relation to E-CIGS KENYA Products that are faulty or not as described. Advice about your legal rights is available from your local Citizens' Advice Bureau or Trading Standards office.

30 day Warranty

Except as expressly stated below, we do not give any representation, warranty or undertaking in relation to the E-CIGS KENYA Products. Any representation, condition or warranty which might be implied or incorporated into these terms and conditions by statute, common law or otherwise is excluded to the fullest extent permitted by law. In particular, we will not be responsible for ensuring that E-CIGS KENYA Products are suitable for your purposes.

In the event of demonstrable defects in the workmanship or materials, E-CIGS KENYA Products are warranted as follows:

  • E-CIGS KENYA Products including the USB stick charger, USB charging cable, UK Mains Adaptor ("Warranty Items") are warranted for a period of 30 calendar days from the date of receipt* and may be repaired or replaced, at our discretion once only.
  • E-CIGS KENYA Batteries are consumable items and are warranted for thirty (30) calendar days from the date of receipt* by you. Thereafter extra batteries may be purchased online as needed or desired. Regular replacement of batteries is recommended for best usage of our E-CIGS KENYA Products.
  • E-CIGS KENYA cartridges / clearomizers are consumable items and are not sold under any warranty.

A warranty is void if a E-CIGS KENYA Product is used with any product from any different electronic cigarette supplier. Warranties will also be void if E-CIGS KENYA Products have not been used by you within their given usage instructions, and without due care by you.

Should you wish to return a E-CIGS KENYA Product carrying a warranty (as outlined above) due to fault or defect, you must contact our team as soon as the fault is found. Failure to do so or continued use of an item that is known to be faulty will void your right to a replacement.

Returned Warranty Items must be received within fourteen (14) calendar days of the submission of your reported claim. Failure to return Warranty Items within this period will void your right to exchanges and returns in any future instances.

E-CIGS KENYA reserves the right to refuse any exchange request that does not substantially meet our requirements or terms and conditions.

The warranties set out above are only applicable to E-CIGS KENYA Products purchased on our Website. Any E-CIGS KENYA Products purchased at other locations or websites are not covered by any warranty.
