14 Day unused returns window
Sonovo™ offers a 14 day return period from the date your order is delivered.
To qualify for a return within this window, items must be:
- Unused
- Unopened
- In their original packaging and condition
We strongly recommend checking your order as soon as it arrives.
Returns that do not meet these conditions may be declined.
Using Your Product Correctly
All Sonovo™ products are supplied with clear instructions, guidance and responsive customer support.
If you are unsure how to use your product, we are here to help. In most cases, issues can be resolved quickly with simple guidance.
Returning A Used Product - Habituation Policy
We understand how frustrating tinnitus can be, especially when you are looking for relief.
Sonovo™ products are designed to support sound enrichment and habituation, which is a gradual process. They are not instant solutions.
Most users begin to notice benefits within 2 to 4 weeks of consistent use, although this varies from person to person.
Once a product has been opened and used, it is no longer eligible for return under the 14 day unused returns window. Any return request will be assessed under the Habituation Policy.
To ensure fairness and proper use:
- Products must be used consistently for a minimum of 4 weeks before a return based on results is considered
- The return request must be submitted within 5 weeks from first use
This policy ensures you have had a genuine opportunity to experience the product as intended.
Product Suitability
If you believe a product is not suitable, we may request further information to understand the issue.
Our team will always aim to help resolve the issue before proceeding with a return.
Quality Control & Packaging
All Sonovo™ products are fully inspected and tested before dispatch to ensure they meet our quality standards.
If your outer packaging arrives damaged:
- This is typically caused during transit by the courier
- It may not indicate a fault with the product itself
If the product inside is damaged, please contact us within 14 days and we will resolve this quickly. Alternatively, there may be some circumstances where you must contact the courier if necessary.
Courier Related Damage
Once your order has been dispatched, the courier is responsible for delivery.
If your parcel arrives visibly damaged:
- Please report this directly to the courier as soon as possible
- We can provide supporting documentation if needed
