SUMMARY – SOME KEY POINTS ABOUT THE CLAIMS PROCESS

 

Set out further below are our full terms and conditions for this Promotion.

If you have any questions about this Promotion, please contact TCC via email: sonypromotions@campaign.net.au

We wanted to summarise the process that applies if you do not love your new WF-1000XM6 or LinkBuds Clip product and want to return them and get your money back. The process to get your money back involves making an online claim and then sending the product back (you will be sent a pre-paid, pre-addressed shipping label and there is no cost to you to send it back). The amount you get back is the price you paid for the product (any shipping you paid when purchasing the product is excluded). The key information is set out in clause 6 below. Please note the following key points in relation to the claims process:

• TIME TO CLAIM: Your 30-day period to make your claim runs from the date of purchase. Example: if you purchase your product on 2nd April 2026, then you have 30 days from 2nd April 2026 to make your claim.

• INFORMATION TO INCLUDE: The information that you need to include when making your online claim includes uploading images such as your purchase receipt. Please make sure you retain a copy of this.

• VALIDATION NUMBER AND RETURNING THE PRODUCT: Once you have lodged your online claim, you will receive a validation number.  From the date you receive this number, you have 14 days to return your product to TCC for validation.

Please also note that for your claim to be successfully validated your returned product must meet certain conditions, such as being returned in its original packaging and not being damaged. Please be aware of all the requirements as set out in clause 15.

PLEASE NOTE:  My Sony members who are eligible to participate in the 30 Day Love It Or Your Money Back Guarantee (https://store.sony.com.au/mysony-terms.html)  are eligible to return their product under those terms or this Promotion.
