Consumer Guarantees

TasPlates’ Change of Mind – Refund Policy applies in addition to and does not affect your rights under the Australian Consumer Law (ACL). Goods and services purchased from TasPlates (including Numeral Only Plates) come with guarantees that cannot be excluded under the ACL.

The ACL protects consumers by giving them certain guaranteed rights when they buy goods and services. For example, the ACL requires that goods must be free of defects and do what they are meant to do. Services must be carried out with care and skill. These rights automatically apply whenever goods or services are supplied to a consumer. They are called the ‘Consumer Guarantees’.

The Consumer Guarantees entitle consumers to a replacement or refund in the event for a major failure, or have the goods repaired or replaced if they fail to be of “acceptable quality” but the failure does not amount to a major failure.

For goods, a major failure inconsistent with the Consumer Guarantees will include (without limitation) circumstances where you would not have purchased the product if you had known about the problem or problems; the product is significantly different from the description, sample or demonstration model you were shown; the product is substantially unfit for its normal purpose; or the product is unsafe.

The Consumer Guarantees have no defined time limit but will generally apply for an amount of time that is reasonable to expect given factors including the cost and quality of the product.

In order to make a claim pursuant to the Consumer Guarantees TasPlates requires you to:

provide proof of purchase (such as your receipt), including the applicable Purchase Price;
a description of the products purchased;
provide written notice to TasPlates at PO Box 1128, Hobart, Tasmania, 7001, Australia or by email at info@tasplates.com.

Neither the Consumer Guarantees or TasPlates’ Change of Mind – Refund Policy will apply if a product purchased from TasPlates has been damaged or defaced through misuse, abnormal service or handling, or has been altered or modified in design or construction.
