Damaged or Lost Shipment
Shipping on our UPS account - Report all damaged or lost shipments to education@phidgets.com and include your order number. According to UPS, in order to be considered lost, a package must be undelivered 24 hours after the expected delivery date and time. Before contacting us, check your shipment status at ups.ca.
Damaged or lost items will be replaced at no charge (including shipping costs).
Shipping on your UPS account - You must notify your local UPS office. If they confirm that they have lost your shipment, you must repurchase the lost or damaged products from Phidgets and file a claim with your local UPS in order to get reimbursed.
Refused/Missed Delivery
If no one is available to accept the package upon delivery, UPS will attempt redelivery two more times, as per their standard procedure. If all delivery attempts fail, UPS will hold the package for 5 days before returning it to us. In such cases, we will issue a refund for your order minus the cost of shipping (both directions) and a flat $50 fee, up to the total value of the package. This policy applies both to deliveries that failed due to no one being present and to packages that were refused at the delivery address.
