Since the used smartphones are pre-owned devices that have already been in use before you buy them, it means that they won’t come with the same warranty that the manufacturer offers.
Additionally, used mobile phones must go through the testing process, where it is ensured that the device is fully functional.
Special Note: Please make a video of opening the packaging flier and unboxing the device so in case of any claims, there is no ambiguity or issue from the customer’s end.
You can get a warranty claim directly from our support team if you’re having issues with the device within “14 days” from the delivery date.
If your device warranty exceeds the given time limit, Zmobile Pakistan will not be responsible for any further claims. Additionally, if the customer wants any repairs done to the phone after the 14-day time period has ended, then they can approach any third-party or official service center that they trust.
