A seller's quality check and an independent examination are different procedures. If the consumer disagrees with the seller's or service centre's conclusions, an independent specialist opinion can be prepared for use in a claim or court.
What to prepare
- receipt, warranty card, contract, work order;
- service centre records and correspondence with the seller;
- photos and videos showing the fault;
- information about operating conditions, connection and repairs;
- documents about an accident, flooding or voltage surge, if available.
Practical conclusion
The earlier the object is preserved in its original condition and the more complete the documentation, the easier it is to establish cause and effect through expert analysis and prepare a convincing report.
