Refunds Policy
At Print Spot Ltd., we strive for perfection.
However, if on receipt of your print consignment you are anything less than delighted with the finished work,
please advise us straightaway. Your issue will be investigated urgently and quickly resolved.
Where the problem is clearly something that can be attributed to Print Spot Ltd, we will immediately reprint
the job, send out replacement printing, and recover the defective batch if necessary. In the event that re-printing
is not an option, we will instead either recover the defective work if necessary and credit you in full or, where
appropriate, negotiate a partial credit to compensate for less than perfect but useable goods.
Where the cause of the problem cannot solely be attributed to Print Spot Ltd, we will seek to find a compromise
remedy with you, either crediting the job in part or re-printing at a reduced cost.
Where the problem can be fully attributed to you, since either print ready files were supplied or our files approved
for press, Print Spot Ltd will not be able to accept liability in any part.
In the unlikely event that a satisfactory resolution cannot be found between us, Print Spot Ltd will accept the
resolution recommended by a third party arbiter. The arbiter being an independent third person accepted by us both.
