Servicing Terms & Conditions
for Fox Suspension Products

 

 

 

 

 

This page (together with the documents expressly referred to on it) tells you information about us and the legal terms and conditions (Terms) on which we supply suspension servicing and tuning services (Services) to you in relation to your FOX suspension and Marzocchi products (FOX Products).  Further information about the Services and the associated FOX Products, are listed on our website. 

We supply the Services to consumers and businesses. 

These Terms will apply to any contract between us for the supply of the Services to you (Contract). Please read these Terms carefully and make sure that you understand them, before completing the FOX Servicing Form accessible at https://www.silverfish-uk.com/Feedback/Fox-Servicing-Form and ordering the Services via our website. Please note that before submitting the FOX Servicing Form you will be asked to agree to these Terms. If you refuse to accept these Terms, you will not be able to order any Services from our site. You should print a copy of these Terms for future reference. If you are a consumer, after you submit your order, we will confirm by email the key information which is required to be provided to you.

As part of us providing the Services to you, we may supply you with spare parts (Parts), for example, by installing upgraded or fully working parts on your Fox Products to replace existing parts of your FOX Products. The supply of such Parts to you forms part of the Services, to which these Terms apply. We also sell Parts separately on our website, however where you order Parts from us via our website and do not order any Services, please note that our Terms and Conditions of Sale will apply, not these Terms.

Please note that certain terms in these Terms apply only to customers who are consumers or only to customers who are businesses. Where a term applies only to consumers or only to businesses, this is clearly stated. You are a business customer if you are buying the Services  wholly or mainly for use in connection with your trade, business, craft or profession, even if you are an individual. You are a consumer customer if you are buying the Services wholly or mainly for your own personal and private use, and you are not a business customer.

We amend these Terms from time to time as set out in clause 6. Every time you wish to order the Services, please check these Terms. These Terms were updated on 21/10/2022. These Terms, and any Contract between us, are only in the English language.

 

1.   Information about us

Our VAT number is 723 5780 29. 

1.2   We are an authorised FOX factory service and warranty centre.  We only use Parts supplied by Fox Factory, Inc. when performing the Services to you to endeavour to ensure that your FOX warranty remains valid.  

 

2.   How the contract is formed between you and us

2.1   All orders for Services must be made through our website by completing our Fox Servicing Form.   

2.2   We will confirm our acceptance of your order by sending you an e-mail that confirms that your order for the Services has been accepted (Order Confirmation). The Contract between us will only be formed when we send you the Order Confirmation.  The Order Confirmation will also include a service ID number which you must include in all correspondence with us. 

2.3   If we are unable to supply the Services to you (for example because you have requested the Services for a suspension product which has not been manufactured by FOX, or the Parts required for us to perform the Services are unavailable) we will inform you of this by e-mail and we will not process your order or if a Contract has already been formed, you can contact us to end the Contract and receive a refund for any Services (less the costs of us returning the FOX Products to you).

2.4   When performing the Services, we may discover old parts which require replacement and/or that additional services are required.  We will let you know if any Parts and/or additional services are required and the price of such Parts and/or additional services.  We will ask you to confirm whether you wish to purchase the Parts before we replace the old part and/or the additional services before we proceed with such services. The purchase of such Parts and/or additional services will form part of the price for the Services. Unless the Parts are being replaced due to wear and tear (in which case we will dispose of the old part), we will return the old parts to you once the new Parts have been installed and you will be responsible for the costs of the return. If you do not wish to purchase the Parts and/or additional services, and as a result we are unable to supply the Services to you, we will notify you and you can contact us to end the Contract and receive a refund for any Services (less the costs of us returning the FOX Products to you).

11.2   Prices for the Services may change from time to time which may affect any order which we have confirmed within an Order Confirmation.  In these circumstances, if you are a consumer, we will inform you in writing and we will give you the option of continuing to purchase the Services at the new price or cancelling your order. We will not process your order until we have your instructions.

11.3   If you are a consumer, the price for the Services includes VAT (where applicable) at the applicable current rate chargeable in the UK for the time being. If you are a business customer, the price of the Services excludes VAT. However, if the rate of VAT changes between the date of your order and the date of us returning the FOX Products to you following completion of the Services, we will adjust the VAT you pay, unless you have already paid for the Services in full before the change in VAT takes effect.

We will not process your order until we have your instructions. If we are unable to contact you using the contact details you provided during the order process, we will treat the order as cancelled, notify you in writing and you will receive a refund for any Services you have paid for but not received (less the costs of us returning the FOX Products to you). Please note that regardless of whether you are a consumer or a business, if the pricing error is obvious and unmistakeable and could have reasonably been recognised by you as a mispricing, we do not have to provide the Services to you at the incorrect (lower) price and if we have accepted and processed your order, we may end the Contract and refund any sums you have paid (less the costs of us returning the FOX Products to you).

 

12.   How to pay

12.1   From the date on which we received the FOX Products from you, up until the Services have been paid for, we shall have a general lien on your FOX Products (for example, a right to possession of property until payment is made for the Services performed in relation to that property) for all sums due.

12.4   We accept payment by debit card or credit card.

13.2   If the Services performed or Parts installed as part of the Services appear faulty during the Warranty Period, you must notify us in writing either by email to info@silverfish-uk.com or by writing to us at Units 3B&3C Woodacre Court, Saltash Parkway Industrial Estate, Burraton Road, Saltash, Cornwall PL12 6LY within a reasonable time of discovery and give us a reasonable opportunity to inspect the fault.

13.3   In order to allow us to inspect the fault, you must return the Fox Products (including any Parts) to us following the procedure set out at clause 13.4. If you do not do this and we do not receive the FOX Products at all or within a reasonable time, we will not be able to inspect the fault and you may not be entitled to the remedies provided under this warranty. 

13.4 You must return the FOX Products (including any Parts) to us at FOX Service Centre, 2 RBF Business Centre, Pontymister Industrial Estate, Risca, Newport, NP11 6NP (together with the original packaging if applicable).

These terms shall apply to any repaired or replacement FOX Products and/or Parts installed as part of the Services. 

13.8  If we opt to provide you with a refund under this warranty:

  1. we may make a deduction from the refund for loss in value of any Parts installed as part of the Services, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you (e.g. handling them in a way which would not be permitted in a shop); and
  2. we will make the refund using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction (e.g. the credit card or debit card used by you to pay for the Services), unless we have expressly agreed otherwise.  In any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of the refund.

13.9   We shall not be liable for the Services or Parts installed as part of the Services’ failure to comply with the warranty in this clause 13 if:

21.1   We may transfer our rights and/or obligations under the Contract to another organisation.
