Repair Terms and Conditions:
I understand that unless my repair is covered under a hardware warranty through the manufacture, I will be charged a minimum DIAGNOSTIC charge of $40. If the repair is more than $40, I will be contacted before the technician proceeds with the repair. The TechHUB reserves the right to refuse service to anyone. I understand that the TechHUB technician may see the data on my system. If the hard drive is defective, the diagnostic tools may cause the drive to fail permanently. The technicians are NOT responsible for data lost which WAS NOT BACKED UP BY ME. In some cases, the only way to resolve a system from errors is to restore the system to its original factory condition. I understand that my software will need reinstalled after this procedure. I, as the owner of the system must reinstall them myself. If the system is not picked up after a period of 90 days and after 3 attempts to contact me, I (the customer) understand that the TechHUB will dispose of my system(s).
