Overview

At Rhythm Corner, we strive to ensure that every customer is fully satisfied with their purchase. This policy outlines the conditions under which returns, exchanges, or refunds can be requested for products purchased online or in-store.

This policy complies with:

  • EU Consumer Rights Directive (2011/83/EU)
  • Portuguese consumer law
  • Klarna & installment payment requirements

All transactions are currently conducted under ECLIPSE SERENO UNIPESSOAL LDA (NIF: 519113837).

Return Eligibility (14 Days)

Customers may request a return within 14 days from:

  • The delivery date for online purchases, or
  • The date of purchase in-store

However, due to the nature of electronic devices, the following conditions apply:

Accepted for Return:

  • The device must be unused, unactivated, and in brand-new condition
  • Original packaging must be intact
  • All accessories, manuals, stickers, and seals must be included
  • IMEI/serial number must match the invoice

  • The device shows signs of use
  • Packaging or accessories are missing
  • Physical damage or scratches are present
  • Liquid damage is evident
  • Screens, batteries, or components have been removed or modified

Note: Once a phone is activated, it is legally considered used and cannot be returned under “change of mind” rules.

Exchange Policy

Customers may request an exchange within 14 days, under the same conditions as above.

Exchanges Allowed:

  • The product remains unused and sealed
  • The customer requests a different model or color

If your device arrives defective or not functioning out of the box, you must notify us within 48 hours of receipt.

  • The defect clearly visible
  • No signs of damage or misuse

After review, we will:

Failure to provide the required evidence may prevent approval of a DOA claim.

Warranty Claims

  • Disable Find My iPhone / Find My Device
  • Reset the device to factory settings
  • Ensure no passwords remain on the device

Important: If the device is locked, the return or exchange cannot be processed.

  • For purchases via installment providers (e.g., Klarna or Alma):
    • Refunds follow the provider’s procedures.
    • Interest already paid may not be refundable.
    • Timing depends on the provider’s internal systems.

Fraud & IMEI Verification

Due to the high value of electronic devices, all returns and exchanges are subject to:

  • IMEI validation
  • Condition inspection
  • Account lock checks (Apple ID, Google, Samsung)
  • Tamper seal verification
  • Serial number matching

Note: Returns failing any of these checks will be rejected and the device returned to the customer.
