DISPUTE RESOLUTION POLICY

Overview

Generally, transactions are conducted smoothly on the App. However there may be some cases where both the Buyers and Sellers may face issues. At Smytten, we have a Dispute Resolution process in order to resolve disputes between Buyers and Sellers.

What is a 'dispute'?

A 'Dispute' can be defined as a disagreement between a Buyer and a Seller in connection with a transaction on the App.

How does a 'dispute' occur in the Marketplace?

Disputes are filed as a result of a disagreement between the Buyer and the Seller. Disputes arise out of an issue that is raised by either party not being completely satisfied with the resolution of their complaint/issue.

It is important that before a Buyer/Seller raises a dispute, they should attempt to resolve the issue mutually. Please note that whenever a Buyer raises a dispute, the Seller's payment for that order is put on hold immediately until the issue is resolved.

How is a 'dispute' created?

Whenever there is a disagreement, you can write to nodal@smytten.com in order to raise a dispute. Disputes can be raised at any particular stage of the transaction.

What are the various types of 'disputes'?

Following are the indicative examples of potential disputes:

1. Wrong item received
2. Seller description/specification is wrong
3. Damaged item
4. Part/Accessory missing

In case the Seller rejects the return request of the Buyer, and Buyer raises a dispute, then Smytten will try to mediate and resolve the dispute between both the parties. If the dispute is resolved in favour of the Buyer, a refund is provided once the product is returned to the Seller. If the dispute is settled in favour of the Seller, Buyer is not entitled to any refund. As per our return & refund policy:

• A concern can only be raised if there is a discrepancy in the delivered product from our end.
• The concern needs to be raised on Smytten App/Website within 5 days of delivery.
• The images of the impacted products, the delivery box, and the shipping label on the box along with a brief description of your concern are mandatory.

Please Note: Requests shall not be considered if the product is discarded, already used, or damaged due to misuse. We will also be unable to accept any request if the product is ordered by mistake or does not meet your expectations.




Disclaimer

The merchandise is not restocked once sold out. No information regarding the presence of any Product or Trial Pack in our stock will be guaranteed.
We, as an intermediary digital marketplace, shall be under no liability whatsoever in respect of any loss or damage arising directly or indirectly out of the decline of authorization for any transaction, or on account of the cardholder having exceeded the preset limit mutually agreed by us with our acquiring bank from time to time
