Return Process
Returning your Simba mattress is a straightforward process that can be completed in a few simple steps. Here’s how it works:
Contacting Simba Customer Support
To initiate the return process, all you need to do is contact our friendly customer support team. They are available to assist you in any way possible and will guide you through the required steps.
Providing Purchase Details
Once you have contacted our customer support team, they will ask for some information to verify your purchase. This may include details such as your order number, delivery address, and purchase date.
Inspecting and Verifying the Return Request
Before proceeding with the return, our team will inspect and verify the condition of the mattress. This step ensures that the mattress meets the acceptable condition requirements for return. We want to make sure that you are eligible for a return and that the mattress can be re-sold or donated.
Providing Return Instructions
Once your return request has been approved, our customer support team will provide you with detailed instructions on how to return the mattress. This will include information on packaging the mattress, organising the return shipping, and any other necessary steps to complete the return process.
Condition of the Mattress
At Simba, we have certain conditions for returning a mattress. We understand that the mattress has been used, but there are some guidelines to ensure that the mattress is in an acceptable condition for return.
Requirements for Acceptable Condition
To be eligible for a return, the mattress must be in a clean and undamaged condition. It should be free from any stains, odours, or damage caused by negligence or misuse. The mattress should be returned with all the original packageing and labels intact.
Not Acceptable Conditions for Return
If the mattress is found to be stained, damaged, or altered in any way that goes beyond normal wear and tear, it may not be eligible for return. In such cases, we reserve the right to refuse the return or deduct a certain amount from the refund.
Handling of Damaged or Defective Mattresses
If you believe that your Simba mattress is defective or damaged upon delivery, please contact our customer support team immediately. We will work with you to assess the issue and provide a resolution that meets your satisfaction. In such cases, the return process may differ slightly from the standard return procedure.
Requirements for Return
To ensure a smooth return process, there are a few requirements that must be met:
Proof of Purchase
You will need to provide proof of purchase, such as your order number or receipt, when initiating a return. This is to confirm that the mattress was purchased directly from Simba.
Return within the Trial Period
Returns must be initiated within the trial period specified in your purchase agreement. This trial period allows you to test the mattress in the comfort of your own home and decide if it meets your needs.
Original packaging and Labels
To ensure the safe return of the mattress, it must be packaged in its original packageing, including any protective covers or bags. Additionally, all labels and tags should be intact and not removed.
No Stains or Odours
The mattress should be returned in a clean condition, free from any stains or odours. This ensures that the mattress can be properly assessed and potentially re-sold or donated.
No Damage or Alterations
Any damage or alterations made to the mattress that go beyond normal wear and tear may affect its eligibility for return. The mattress should be returned in the same condition as it was received, with no alterations or modifications.
Return Shipping
When it comes to return shipping, we aim to make the process as convenient as possible for you. Here are some important details regarding return shipping:
