SUBMITTING PRODUCTS FOR SERVICE

Please follow these guidelines to ensure your service request is handled efficiently.

    Important: Only send the product after receiving an RMA number and confirmation email. Items without an RMA number cannot be processed and will be returned, causing delays and additional costs.

4. Loan Equipment

  • Upon receipt, RAYLASE will conduct a preliminary inspection to assess repair requirements.

2. Provisional Nature of Estimates

  • Initial estimates are provisional and subject to change until final quality control.
  • Cost overruns of up to 20% will be carried out without extra approval from you; in the event of higher deviations, we will ask you to approve the updated cost estimate.

3. Approval Process

  • Repairs up to €850 net: Repairs proceed without consultation.
  • Repairs over €850 net: A free estimate will be provided, requiring customer approval.
  • Upon request, we can also issue cost estimates for repairs under €850, for which we charge a fee of €100.

4. Repair Timelines

  • Standard Repair: 3–4 weeks after approval, depending on part availability.
  • Express Repair: 1 week after approval, with an additional €500 fee (plus VAT), also subject to part availability.
