Refund Policy (Local Konnect)

At Local Konnect, we prioritize customer satisfaction and strive to provide a seamless shopping and delivery experience. However, we understand that there may be instances where a refund is necessary. This policy ensures transparency and sets clear expectations regarding refunds.

1. Eligibility for Refunds

You may be eligible for a refund in the following cases:

• Damaged or Defective Products: If the product delivered to you is damaged, defective, or significantly different from its description.
• Non-Delivery of Products: If the product you ordered is not delivered within the promised timeframe due to service issues.
• Order Cancellation: If you cancel your order before it has been dispatched from the vendor.

2. Non-Refundable Cases

Refunds will not be issued in the following scenarios:

• Change of Mind: Orders returned due to a change of mind after delivery will not qualify for refunds unless specified under our return policy.
• Incorrect Orders: Refunds will not be provided for orders placed with incorrect information, such as the wrong address or phone number provided by the user.
• Service Delays: Delays caused by circumstances beyond our control, such as natural disasters or third-party disruptions, are not eligible for refunds.
• Usage or Damage by Customer: Items that are used, altered, or damaged by the customer after delivery will not be eligible for refunds.

3. Partial Refunds

In some situations, partial refunds may be issued based on the nature of the issue:

• Partially Damaged Orders: If only a portion of your order is damaged or defective, a partial refund for the affected items may be granted.
• Service Disruptions: For services not fully rendered (e.g., incomplete delivery), a partial refund proportional to the unmet service may be provided.

To inquire about partial refunds, please contact our Customer Support Team with your order details.
