Disputes (Resolutions) Policy

Generally, transactions are conducted smoothly on Sonovision. However there may be some cases where both the Buyers and Sellers may face issues. At Sonovision, we have a Dispute Resolution process in order to resolve disputes between Buyers and Sellers.

What is a ‘dispute’?

A ‘Dispute’ can be defined as a disagreement between a Buyer and a Seller in connection with a transaction on the Platform.

How does a ‘dispute’ occur in the Marketplace?

Disputes are filed as a result of a disagreement between the Buyer and the Seller. Disputes arise out of an issue that is raised by either party not being completely satisfied with the resolution of their complaint/issue.

It is important that before a Buyer/Seller raises a dispute, they should attempt to solve the issue. Please note that whenever a Buyer raises a dispute, the Seller’s payment for that order is put on hold immediately until the issue is resolved.

How is a ‘dispute’ created?

Whenever there is a disagreement, the Buyer can contact us through this link https://sonovision.in/contact-us/ ,  in order to raise a dispute. Disputes can be raised at a particular transaction level.

What are the various types of ‘disputes’?

Following are the indicative examples of potential disputes:

  1. Wrong item received
  2. Item Not as described
  3. Damaged or Seal broken on Product
  4. Part/Accessory missing
  5. Item not Compatible
  6. Seller Description/Specification Wrong
  7. Defective (Functional issues)
  8. Product not working and Manufacturer claims invalid Invoice

In case the Sonovision rejects the return request of the Buyer, and Buyer raises a dispute, then Sonovision will try to resolve the dispute. If the dispute is resolved in favour of the Buyer, a refund is provided once the product is returned to the Seller. If the dispute is settled in favour of the Sonovision, Buyer is entitled to any refund.

Buyers can file a dispute within 45 days from the date of delivery of the product

Any damage or loss to the product after delivery will not be covered under and will completely be the Buyer’s responsibility. Buyers should refuse to accept delivery if the item is damaged.

Disputes via Chargeback

Whenever a chargeback (CB) comes from a payment gateway/bank, following situations may arise:

  1. Item not received CB – Buyer hasn’t received the item. Refund will be created in accordance with the dispute policies
  2. Unauthorized CB – Buyer hasn’t made this particular transaction. Refund will be created in accordance with the dispute policies.

Seller expressly agrees that issuing the correct and complete invoice is the sole and primary responsibility of the Seller.

  1. Item not as described – meaning item is not what Buyer expected. Dispute will be decided in accordance with the dispute policies.
