1.1 In these conditions:“Consumer” means any customer who is purchasing outside the course of his or her business or trade;
1.2 The contract for supply of Goods and any Support Services (if applicable) (“Contract”) will be formed when you accept our quotation or we accept your order and confirm this to you in Writing. Acceptance of an order by us can only be made in Writing. Once the Contract has been formed with you, we will file it in electronic or paper copy for our records.
1.3 In deciding whether to accept your order, we may carry out a credit check and then will only accept your order if we are satisfied with the results of such a check. You confirm that you are happy for us to carry out such a check. You agree that we may also use personal information provided by you in order to conduct appropriate anti-fraud checks. Personal Information that you provide may be disclosed to a credit reference or fraud prevention agency, which may keep a record of that information. If we identify a transaction as being fraudulent or potentially fraudulent, we may return any Goods in transit to our warehouse and we may cancel your order.
1.4 We may cancel your order at any time due to error (e.g. if the details of the price, description or availability of Goods you have ordered are incorrect). In such an instance, you will receive a full refund of any charges already paid. If we are unable to accept your order, we will inform you of this and will not charge you. This may be because the item is out of stock, we have identified an error in the price or description or we cannot meet a delivery deadline you have specified.
1.5 These conditions and any matters referred to on our quotation or order acknowledgement (as appropriate) form the entire understanding between you and us and supersede any prior promises, representations (unless fraudulent) or undertakings.
1.6 Any omission or error in any sales literature, web page or site, order form, quotation, price list, order acknowledgement, dispatch note, invoice or other document issued by us may be corrected by us without liability.
1.7 By accepting the Contract, you are confirming that you are a Consumer.
1.8 The provisions of the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 are expressly excluded from the Contract so that no third party may claim any rights under this contract.
1.9 Clause headings are for convenience only and do not affect the interpretation of these conditions. Words in the singular include the plural and vice versa.
2.1 Subject to condition 11, we will offer you either a repair, exchange or refund if your item is faulty, if the fault occurs within 30 days of purchase (or delivery or installation by a Jigsaw appointed engineer/contractor). If replacement or repairs are not possible, we will examine the Goods and, if the Goods are faulty or do not do what we say in Writing that they will do, will, at your option, either remedy the defect in question, replace the defective Goods or refund the price of the defective Goods. This warranty does not apply to Software, which is dealt with at condition 2.5, below.
2.2 The warranty in 2.1 above does not apply to faults that have been caused by your misuse and/or neglect of the Goods or by accidents caused while the Goods are in your possession or normal wear and tear.
2.3 Where you return Goods under condition 2.1, we will pay for the delivery of any repaired or replacement Goods to you and will, where you have returned Goods to us within 30 days of delivery, reimburse your reasonable postage costs in returning the Goods. We will not be liable for any delivery costs where you are not entitled to return the Goods to us under these conditions or by law.
2.4 You must return all Goods to us in their original packaging in substantially the same condition as you bought them, and you should ensure that all returned Goods bear a return identification number clearly visible on the exterior (such number may be obtained from us prior to return of the Goods by you).
2.5 Software (and its use) will be subject to the terms of the manufacturer’s licence contained within the software itself (and accessed upon loading) or within or upon the packaging of the software. Such licence will state the extent of the manufacturer’s liability for the software.
2.6 We will supply any Support Services which you purchase from us with reasonable skill and care and in accordance with the written specification which we have provided to you for those Support Services.
2.7 If the Support Services which you purchase from us are not in accordance with clause 2.6, above, or do not do what we say in Writing that they will do, you should notify us in Writing within 30 days of their supply or within a reasonable time from their supply for defects which are not apparent to you following supply of the Support Services. If the Support Services are not in compliance with clause 2.6, above, or do not do what we say in Writing that they will do, we will, either remedy the defect in question, re-supply the defective Support Services or refund the price (or the part of the price) of the defective Support Services (or part or the Support Services). This warranty does not apply to Software, which is dealt with at condition 2.5, above.
3.1 We are responsible to you for foreseeable loss and damage caused by us. If we fail to comply with the terms and conditions under this Contract, we are responsible for loss or damage you suffer that is a foreseeable result of our breaking this Contract or failing to use reasonable care and skill, but we are not responsible for any loss or damage that is not foreseeable. Loss or damage is foreseeable if either if it is obvious that it will happen or if, at the time of the Contract was made, both we and you knew it might happen, for example, if you discussed it with us during the sales process.
3.2 We will not be liable to you by way of representation (unless fraudulent), common law duty or under any express or implied term of the contract for:
3.3 We do not exclude or limit our liability to you where it would be unlawful to do so. This includes any liability for:

All prices are in £ sterling, are exclusive of VAT (unless otherwise stated), delivery and installation charges, and the cost of packaging and insurance, all of which will be added to or charged on invoices at the appropriate rates and paid by you.
4.2 We may vary the price where the cost to us of acquiring or supplying the Goods is increased between the date of quotation or order acknowledgement (as appropriate) and delivery, and including, without limitation, increases in the cost of carriage, packaging or insurance or arising from a change in exchange rate, a change in delivery date, quantities or specifications for Goods requested by you or delay caused by your instructions provided that we will notify you in writing in good time prior to delivery of such price increases, and you may cancel your order within 7 working days of this notice if you are unhappy with the price increase.
5.1 Unless we agree otherwise in Writing, you must pay for Goods (and any Support Services) prior to the dispatch of the Goods to you by such means as we may notify you of. Where the Goods and/or Support Services are supplied on credit terms granted at our discretion, payment will be made by you by the end of the month following our invoice date. Payment by cheque is deemed to have been made only upon such cheque being met on first presentation.
5.2 Where you do not make any payment to us under the Contract by its due date then, we may, in addition to any other rights which we have under this Contract:
6.1 We will deliver the Goods to the place designated by you in the UK in the accepted order or quotation, as appropriate, during normal business hours. The Support Services (if applicable) shall be delivered in accordance with clause 12, below.
6.2 Unless otherwise expressly agreed in writing, any delivery date or time specified by us in any quotation, dispatch note or otherwise (including for installation under condition 9) is a best estimate only, and in any event delivery shall be made within 30 days from the date we accepted your order. Unless we agree otherwise we will not be liable to you for any loss or damage sustained by you if we fail to meet that timescale because of circumstances beyond our reasonable control.
6.3 If you become unable to pay your debts (or have no reasonable prospect of so doing), make an arrangement with your creditors, suffer a bankruptcy order or breach your payment obligations under the Contract, then we may, as well as any other rights which we have under this Contract, immediately terminate the Contract and suspend or cancel further delivery.
6.4 If you fail to take delivery of the Goods within a reasonable time, you are liable to us for any loss caused by your neglect or failure to take delivery and our costs of storing the Goods.
6.5 We may have to suspend supply of the Goods (or services described under condition 12) to:
7.1 Ownership of the Goods and the risk for damage to the Goods will pass to you upon delivery.
7.2 If you fail to pay for any Goods in accordance with these conditions we may bring action against you for the price of the Goods at any time.
7.3 We may suspend the services described under conditions 9 and 12 of these terms if we have reasonable belief that you may not pay the amounts that you owe and we have requested that you explain the position and you have failed to do so satisfactorily.
8.1 We shall repair or replace, free of charge, any Goods damaged or lost in transit where delivery has been made by our carrier, provided that you give us written notification of such damage or loss within 14 days of the date of the order being dispatched from Jigsaw24, pending an internal investigation by our chosen courier.
8.2 If an order has been damaged, tampered with or partly received please make sure that the goods are kept securely at the delivery address so that our courier can make an onsite inspection. Any movement of the consignment away from the place of delivery (that isn’t authorised by Jigsaw24) may void the transit claim with our chosen courier and will result in a repair/replacement not being issued.
8.3 Depending on the courier that is used for each delivery and the nature of the investigation, investigations times can take up to 30 days to be completed. We will keep you updated throughout the whole process but the final decision has been made until the courier investigation has been completed.
9.1 We may for an additional charge install and/or commission Goods at your premises or elsewhere. Condition 3 shall apply to the provision of any installation or commissioning. Goods shall be treated as delivered to you when the same are presented by us at the agreed delivery destination.
9.2 Where we carry out any one-off servicing of the Goods you must keep adequate back-up copies of data and programs held or used by you. We will not be liable to you for any loss or retrieval of such data and programs.
10.1 Where we have put drawings, photographs, illustrations, specifications, performance data, dimensions and the like in sales literature, on web pages or other documentation, we believe they are accurate. However, you should not take them to be a description of the Goods or representations made by us and we do not warrant that they are accurate. If you believe that the differences are significant you may cancel the Contract according to your rights in condition 11 below.
10.2 The specification for Goods may be changed by the manufacturer at any time up to delivery. We will not be liable for any loss or damage suffered in connection with any change. We will try (wherever possible) to advise you of any such impending variation as soon as we are able or upon our receiving notice of the same (as appropriate). You must check specifications for Goods prior to making an order. You may cancel the Contract according to your rights set out in condition 11, below.
11.1 If you have purchased the Goods or Support Services online or via our call centre, you have the right to cancel the Contract for the purchase of any of the Goods and the supply of the Support Services (if applicable) within 14 days of delivery (in respect of Goods) and within 14 days from entering into the Contract in respect of Support Services (see condition 1.2, above). We will be happy to exchange the Goods or provide you with a full refund for the price of the Goods and/or Support Services provided that, where delivery has taken place, you have returned the Goods to us in the same condition that they were delivered and are in an “as new” condition, returned in the original, undamaged packaging.
We regret that we cannot accept the return of Software sent to you sealed which has been opened. ESD (Electronic Software Delivery), in which you’re supplied with a licence and a web link in order to download your purchase. As there’s no physical packaging, the licence has to be treated in the same way as an unsealed box, which means we’re unable to take this back.
Products that have contact with the ear, nose or throat can only be returned for a full refund if sent back with seals unbroken and in unused condition.
Unless we agree otherwise with you in writing, you will not be able to cancel the Contract in respect of the Support Services (if applicable) under this condition 11 once the performance of the Support Services has been completed by us. Further, if you agree to our performance of the Services before the expiry of the 14 day period in respect of ongoing Support Services, you may be charged for the cost of Support Services already performed or completed by us if you subsequently choose to cancel the Contract.
11.2 You may use the cancellation form which is accessible via: www.Jigsaw24.com/cancellation-form on our site, but it is not compulsory to do so.
11.3 This right of return is in addition to any other rights, warranties or conditions available to you. (For example, there are terms implied into our Contract with you under the Consumer Rights Act 2015, which we do not exclude).
11.4 If you exercise your right of cancellation after the Goods have been delivered to you, please call our Customer Support Department on
01159 165 510 or email [email protected] and obtain a returns number. We would then ask you to package any Goods (if applicable) securely in the original packaging. Please record the returns number on a label attached to the outer packaging, please do not write on or damage the box. The return address is:

11.5 Once we receive the Goods from you, we will give you a refund for the cost of the Goods plus the delivery charge paid (except where the Goods are being returned because you have simply changed your mind). We may make a deduction from the refund for any loss in value of the Goods or unnecessary handling by you.
11.6 For your protection, we recommend that you use a recorded delivery service. Please note that you will be responsible for the costs of returning the Goods to us unless we delivered the items to you in error or the Goods are faulty.

13.2 Where there is risk of substantial delay, you shall be entitled to cancel your order without penalty.
14.1 We may transfer our rights and obligations under this Contract at any time. We will always tell you in writing if this happens and we will ensure that the transfer will not affect your rights under the Contract. If you are unhappy with the transfer you may contact us to end the Contract within 30 days of us telling you about it and we will refund you any payments you have made in advance for Goods not provided.
14.2 You may only transfer your rights or your obligations under this Contract to another person if we agree to this in writing (such agreement not to be unreasonably withheld).
14.3 This Contract is between you and us. No other person shall have any rights to enforce any of its terms.
