Request a Return.
At Vanguard Group Limited, we strive to ensure your satisfaction with every purchase. However, we understand that there may be instances where you need to return a product.
Our Returns Process.
Please read our returns policy carefully to understand your options and obligations. Our process for returns is as follows:
- Customer to select the reason for the refund request from one of the four policy options below.
- Customer to complete the associated Return Merchandise Authorisation (RMA) form.
- An RMA case number will be issued by Vanguard Group Ltd.
- The RMA will be reviewed and responded to within 2-3 working days.
- Once the RMA has been approved, you will be advised how to return products to Vanguard.
- Once goods have been received by Vanguard, we will advise if a credit on account will be issued. Should a refund of said credit be required we will request:
- a copy of a pre-coded bank deposit slip, or
- a screenshot of a statement showing bank logo, account name and number.
Thank You and Stay Safe!
