What are my Rights? Am I eligible for a Refund from ATS Auto
At ATS Auto, users benefit from a range of services tailored to enhance their automotive testing and diagnostic needs. As a customer, understanding your rights regarding refunds is essential, particularly in light of the specific services and products offered by ATS Auto. While ATS Auto is dedicated to providing quality service, there are particular circumstances under which users may be eligible for a refund.
Refund eligibility may be influenced by several service-oriented criteria as outlined below:
Subscription Services: If you are subscribed to a diagnostic tool or software and choose to cancel your subscription before the next billing cycle, you may be eligible for a prorated refund, depending on the timing of your cancellation relative to the billing period.
Product Returns: For physical products purchased through ATS Auto, items that are returned within a specified return window in original packaging and condition might qualify for a refund, subject to the evaluation of the product upon receipt.
Service Satisfaction: If a service provided was not delivered satisfactorily or did not meet the stated performance standards, you may have the opportunity to request a refund, depending on the specific circumstances surrounding the service delivery.
Technical Issues: Should there be significant technical issues affecting the functionality of a purchased product within a certain timeframe following your purchase, you may be eligible for a refund, contingent upon the assessment of the issue by ATS Auto's support team.
Promotional Offers: In cases where a promotional discount was not applied correctly at checkout, customers may inquire about potential adjustments or refunds, subject to confirmation from ATS Auto's customer service regarding the applicability of the promotion.
Understanding these criteria can help customers navigate their experiences effectively while using ATS Auto’s services and products. Always reach out to customer support for clarification on your unique situation regarding refunds.
