This payment is not collected by Pumphouse Party Hire. It is done by a debt collection body. (You really do not want this to happen, so keep your eye on the gear all the time).
  14. Blowing a speaker is quite a hard thing to do (This is not a challenge) and we are aware that from time to time there will be an issue with a speaker whereby one of the LF Woofer/HF driver or amplifier module might have a problem. In this case we generally will accept the fact that we live in a world that isn't perfect and you won't be held liable to the speaker's fault. Whereby there is obvious signs of neglect or abuse (Believe us, we can actually tell when a speaker has been turned up to 11 for too long), we will keep record of the hire detail and have it evaluated by the repairers, after this evaluation from the experts if the decision is that the speaker/sub/cd player or mixer has failed due to no fault of its own then you will be required to pay the repair charge.
  15. If you experience a suspected pre-existing fault with our equipment, we encourage you to contact us within business hours to allow for our customer service team to try and diagnose the issue with you. In extreme cases, we will make a note to inspect the equipment upon return and can organise a credit/refund for the item/s of equipment that demonstrate a pre-existing fault. We also strongly encourage you to contact us if you believe you have caused damage to any of the equipment during the process of hiring as this will allow us to perform an efficient fault diagnosis upon return resulting in a quicker return process for you.
