What does heliguy™ Repair Refresh cover?

Accepted Answer

heliguy™ Repair Refresh covers your equipment in the following circumstances: Pilot error Accidental damage Water damage Damaged during transit You damage your equipment on holiday (free shipping for your Repair Refresh claim only applies when claiming from the UK). Repair Refresh cover lasts for 12 months from the date of purchase. If you make a claim within this 12-month period, the cover immediately expires at the point of successful repair or replacement. Repair Refresh is only valid for items purchased from heliguy™ and each policy is only valid against the item it is logged against. heliguy™ Repair Refresh does not cover lost or stolen equipment. heliguy™ suggests contacting your insurance company for this kind of cover. If a drone suffers a crash, and flight logs show that the pilot's stick manoeuvres indicate an intentional or reckless crash, then cover will not be valid on this occasion.

Question 6

Is my equipment repaired or replaced?

Accepted Answer

The first attempt will always be to repair your equipment. We are a DJI-approved repair centre using official parts and supported by DJI-trained technicians. If your drone has been repaired, it will be flight-tested before being returned to you. If for any reason a repair cannot be successfully completed, a replacement will be provided. Only the item that is damaged will be repaired or replaced.

Question 7

How long does Repair Refresh cover last and how many claims can I make?

Accepted Answer

Each Repair Refresh policy lasts up to 12 months. You are eligible for one claim during this 12-month period, beginning when you purchase Repair Refresh. This will expire upon the first successful repair or replacement. If you do not claim within the 12-month period, the cover will automatically lapse. Repair Refresh cannot be renewed - either upon the completion of a successful claim or once the cover has expired after a year.

Question 8

Is Repair Refresh the same as insurance or warranty?

Accepted Answer

No, it is not. Repair Refresh protects you against pilot error, as well as product failure. The warranty that comes with your DJI drone will only be used in the case of product failure. In addition, you’ll get all your support and replacement parts from the UK - significantly reducing the turnaround time for repairs or replacements. Repair Refresh is also not a substitute for commercial drone insurance.

Question 9

Can I cancel my Repair Refresh for a full refund?

Yes - you have a 14 day cooling off period, you can cancel the cover for a full refund up to 14 days after the cover has been purchased. You must inform us in writing to info@heliguy.com that you wish to cancel the policy.

Can I get Repair Refresh if I’m buying from outside the UK?

Accepted Answer

You can get Repair Refresh if purchasing from outside the UK, but international shipping is not included in the cover. Shipping must be covered by the user for all units that need to be shipped to and from countries outside the UK.
