2. Pricing Disclaimer

All prices on this website are subject to change without notice. Whilst we make every effort to provide you with the most accurate, up-to-date information, occasionally, one or more items on our website may be mis-priced. In the event a product is listed at an incorrect price due to typographical, photographic, or technical error or error in pricing information received from our suppliers, Cityikon shall have the right to refuse or cancel any orders placed for product listed at the incorrect price. 

3. All repairs:

3.1 This Agreement shall commence from the date you sign the online service check-in form and shall continue until we have repaired or otherwise returned your Device, whichever is sooner, and received any payment due from you.

3.2 We shall make reasonable efforts to repair your Device subject to the availability of any parts required and/or the terms of any relevant guarantee or warranty. We shall perform the Service using our utmost care and skill.

3.3 We shall use high quality compatible parts for the repairs of all Devices. All parts used to repair any equipment are replacement and not genuine unless otherwise stated in writing. This means they will not perform as intended by the manufacturer and the quality will differ.    

3.4 We shall require the passcode of your device in order to test the Device before and after the Service. Should you prefer to keep this information private, we can still proceed with an appointment, but will not be able to perform a full functional check on the Device until you return to the store, which can delay the provision of the Service, if any adjustments need to be made.

3.5 Any time estimate for completion of the service, which may be given to you, is an estimate only and does not form any obligation under the terms of this Agreement. We will aim to return your Device as soon as reasonably possible, however, any Board Level (Level 3) repairs (i.e. repairs to the logic board of the Device) may take at least 5 working days to be completed.

3.6 We shall notify you when the Device has been repaired and is available for collection from the store. If the device has not been collected it will be transferred to our central warehouse for storage. Any delivery from the central warehouse will be chargeable. If necessary, we shall send a reminder and the device will be sold to a third party or recycled with no payout to the customer if not collected by day 56.

3.7 If we are unable to complete the Service for any reason, or the Service will incur further costs payable by you beyond that initially estimated by us, we will notify you immediately via telephone and/or email. If no fault is found on your Device or you do not accept our revised estimate, we will return your Device to you unrepaired and we reserve the right to charge you an inspection fee in accordance with our standard charges.

3.8 It is your responsibility to ensure the equipment is not stolen and that you have sufficient evidence to prove you are the owner of the handset or Device.

3.9 We shall be entitled to keep your device until all charges payable have been paid. We may also charge an additional fee for the storage of your Device.

3.10 Use of our service may void your manufacturer’s warranty. If you would like to avoid this, then please take your Device directly to the manufacturer. Please note, your manufacturer’s warranty will not cover any accidental damage.

3.11 Cityikon may install warranty seals following the repair. Any tampering of the seals or if there are any signs of wear on external components we have installed, physical damage, liquid damage. This includes scratch marks on LCDs, frames, and chassis will void the Cityikon warranty.

3.12 Our products and repairs are covered by the warranty terms outlined in the table below:

Repair or Product Type Warranty Term

Screen and component replacement 1
-month Warranty
Battery replacement
 1-month Warranty
Software Repair
 1-month Warranty
Computer Repair
 1-month Warranty
Refurbished Device
 1-month Warranty (unless otherwise specified)
Accessories

3.13 The Warranty is linked to a specific device as identified by its unique IMEI or serial number and to a specific Customer as identified by the records on our system. It will cover the Customer for any re-occurrence of the original fault and for the part replaced / repaired only, however if additional faults arise, they will not be covered under the terms of this Warranty. Furthermore, the Warranty will not cover accidental damage, nor will the cover extend should the device change ownership.

3.14 We do not accept responsibility for any progression in damage where your device has been repaired elsewhere prior to your repair at Cityikon or any issues found in your Device (i.e. ‘Touch Disease’, ripped flex) which were not evident upon initial inspection. Should any issues become evident, once the Device is opened, we will contact you via telephone/email.

3.15 We do not accept responsibility for any progression in damage for devices that have been damaged by liquid. Opening the device could set off further damage which in some cases may be very serious and irreparable.

3.16 We ask our customers to monitor their Device post liquid damage repair, as unknown issues can arise soon after treatment for liquid damage, which are beyond our control.

3.17 In rare occasions, repairing one part of a device can enhance pre-existing damage on components not directly associated with the component being repaired. This could cause irreparable damage and we take no responsibility for such damage.

3.18 Following repair, any water-proofing or resistance cannot be guaranteed.

4. Liability

4.1 Our entire liability in respect of any single cause of action arising out of or in connection with this Agreement (whether for breach of contract, tort, including negligence, statute or otherwise at all) shall be limited, to the extent that the cause of action related to our supply of the Services, at our exclusive option to: (a) supplying the Services again; (b) payment of the cost of having the Services supplied again; or (c) repaying you any amount that you have paid in respect of the Services.

In order to receive a replacement device, full payment must have been received for the repair service and the relevant damaged device must be surrendered to Cityikon.

4.3 Any data or information that you may have stored on the Device shall remain your sole responsibility and we accept no liability for loss or corruption of such data however caused we therefore highly recommend that you back up your device onto an external drive or clouding service prior to commissioning our Service.

4.6 We shall not be liable for any claim arising under this Agreement unless you give us written notice of the claim within 1 month of becoming aware of the circumstances giving rise to the claim or, if earlier, 1 month from the time you ought reasonably to have become aware of such circumstances.

4.7 If you use our “Advanced Repairs”, be aware we will be working on the component level of your logic board therefore, we can’t guarantee a fix on the device. Due to the nature of the repair there is always a possibility that the damage may worsen to the stage where the device is BER (beyond economical repair). In these circumstances, there will be a minimum handling charge/fee of £25.
