Product complaint

Dear Customer,

We care much about your rights, including the right to make a complaint. Below you will find detailed information concerning our liability for the defect of the product sold by us and your rights related to the complaint on the statutory basis - due to the warranty.

Important! Remember that if a product has also been granted a guarantee, you can also file a complaint based on it - in this case, however, the addressee will be the guarantor indicated in the guarantee. The guarantee also defines the scope of your rights each time. Remember that the guarantee entitlement does not affect our liability under the warranty and that the guarantee does not exclude, limit or suspend your rights under the warranty for defects in the item sold

The basis and scope of our liability for product defects under the warranty is determined by the generally applicable provisions of law, in particular the provisions of the Civil Code.

We have an obligation to provide a product without defects. We are responsible, due to the warranty, if the physical defect of the product is found before the expiry of two years from the date of its delivery to the buyer. Important! We are responsible under the warranty for physical defects that existed at the time of transfer of danger to the buyer or resulted from the cause inherent in the thing sold at the same time.

You can make a complaint for example:

• in writing to the following address: Online Shop Viking Europe Bielska 43-374 Buczkowice;

• in electronic form via e-mail to the following address: info@viking-europe.com;

Specify in the description of the complaint: (1) information and circumstances regarding the subject of the complaint, in particular the type and date of the defect; (2) request for a way to bring the product into compliance with the sales contract or a statement of price reduction or withdrawal from the sales contract; and (3) your contact details - it will facilitate and speed up the processing of your complaint. Remember that the requirements set out in the previous sentence are only recommendations and do not affect the effectiveness of complaints filed without the recommended description of the complaint.

When submitting a complaint, you can use our sample complaint form, but it is not mandatory.

The basic rights of the buyer in relation to the complaint of the product

For sales contracts concluded

from December 25, 2014.

In this case, the rights are, in principle, of an equivalent nature, which means that you have the chance to immediately use both the first and second group of rights:
1) Group: price reduction / refund

If the product sold has a defect, you can submit a statement of price reduction or withdrawal from the contract, unless you immediately and without undue inconvenience to you, replace the defective Product with a defect-free one or remove the defect.
Important! This limitation does not apply if the product has already been replaced or repaired by us, or if we have not fulfilled the obligation to replace the product with one that is free from defects or to remove the defect.

  • If the Customer is a consumer, instead of the removal of a product proposed by us in accordance with the above provisions, request replacement of the product free of defects, or instead of replacing the product, demand removal of the defect, unless it is impossible to bring the product into conformity with the sales agreement or would require excessive costs compared to the proposed method by us. 

Important! The customer can not withdraw from the contract if the defect is irrelevant.

1) Group: repair / replacement

If the product sold has a defect, you can request replacement of the product for one free from defects or removal of the defect. However, we may refuse to comply with your request if it is impossible to bring the defective product into conformity with the contract in the manner you have chosen or would require excessive costs compared to the second possible way to bring it into compliance with the contract.

 

Remember that a customer who exercises warranty rights is obliged to deliver a defective product to us at Online Shop Viking Europe Bielska 43-374 Buczkowice;. If, however, due to the type of product or the method of its installation, its delivery would be excessively difficult, the customer is obliged to provide us with the product in the place where the product is located.

We will respond to your complaint promptly, no later than within 14 calendar days from the date of its submission. Important! Failure to respond in the aforementioned period in the event of a demand for repair, replacement or reduction of the price means that we considered the complaint justified.

The consumer also has the option of using out-of-court dispute resolution.
