Authorizing Work
You authorize Hi-Fone Phone Repair to perform the work described in the Service Estimate (“Service”) on the device identified on the front of this Service Authorization/Receipt (“Your Device”), subject to these Terms and Conditions. If Your Device is under any applicable manufacturer’s warranty, then the terms of Hi-Fone Phone Repair’s Limited Warranty (see below) also apply and will control if there is any conflict with these terms. In particular, if the Warranty Status of Your Device shown on the front of this Service Authorization is “In Warranty” and Hi-Fone Phone Repair determines on further inspection that the issue with Your Device is not covered by the Limited Warranty (for example, there is damage due to exposure to liquid), then additional charges not shown in the Service Estimate may apply. In that case, Hi-Fone Phone Repair will notify you of the additional charges prior to starting work on your device. Service on Your Device will not begin unless and until you authorize the additional charges. If you receive a loaner device to use while Your Device is being Serviced, and you lose or damage that Loaner Device, you will be charged and liable for the retail price of the Loaner Device.
