RMA Terms and Conditions

In the event of a customer concern with a product, it is preferred that Beam support personnel try to offer a remedy to the situation over the phone or via email. It is in the customer's best interest to identify field related concerns with products being returned either under warranty or repair. Beam requires customers to assist with this information at the time of the RMA request. Beam requests that each product be identified with a tag or written statement as to the nature of the return.

To assure proper attention and to avoid delays in handling returns, Beam requests the product is returned to the factory via the original purchase location (wholesaler, distributor, etc). Please ship only the main unit, no accessories of any kind (unless otherwise instructed). Accessories might get lost during the repair process.

RMAs are only valid for 30 days. If not returned during that time period, the RMA will be cancelled and a new RMA request will be required.
