Upon receipt of your device, whether in a MyTechHotel.com store or via our Postal Repair Service, a MyTechHotel.com Tech will assess your device. If there is any change to the indicative price quoted to you (for example, because the information you have provided about the defect/fault in your device(s) is incorrect and/or whenMyTechHotel.com identifies additional defects with your device(s) and/orMyTechHotel.com has not correctly calculated the pricing), we will notify you of the difference in pricing so that you can choose whether or not you wish to proceed at the increased cost. If you do not wish to proceed, MyTechHotel.com shall not perform the Service(s) and refund any sum previously paid by you minus a diagnostic charge for assessing the device as described in Clause 6.2 and any possible postal costs of returning the device to you.

Accordingly, MyTechHotel.com has no liability or responsibility for any Call out Service voluntarily provided to you by any Repair Tech and/or any acts and/or omissions of the Repair Tech.

7.4 The price quoted to you for the Call out Service is an indicative non-binding quote issued by MyTechHotel.com on behalf of the Repair Tech based upon the information that you provided. Accordingly, these indicative price quotes are subject to detailed verification of the device. The Repair Tech will assess your device on arrival.

If you do not wish to proceed, the Repair Tech shall not perform the Call out Service. You shall be liable to pay a call out fee for the Repair Tech travelling to your location, as stated on our website.
