Lost Packages, Missing Products, and Courier Claims

Also call our customer service dept so we can open a claim. A claim cannot be started after 3 days from the date of delivery. There is a simple procedure to follow when opening a claim.
Please ensure that all contents included in the shipment, as well as packaging, and weighbills are all saved and in tact for the courier to complete their inspection. Without these items the courier may not proceed with the claim and in this event Fta Bonus will not be held responsible. Please ensure that you keep these items and do not discard of them
Lost Packages
A lost package will only be re-shipped once the courier or shipping company has done a complete investigation to either locate the package or issue an insurance refund to us. We are unable to issue refunds on lost packages. Once the investigation by the courier or shipping company is complete, there will be a resolution. If the lost package claim is granted to us, we will re-shipped the package to the verified address on file with your credit card. Please ensure you have purchased the appropriate amount of insurance to cover the replacement value of your order if this should happen. Fta Bonus Inc. is not responsible for under insured lost packages.
Alternate Shipping Address Procedure:
Fta Bonus Inc. by rule only ships to the billing address of the credit card. You may notice this when checking out that there is not an option for an alternate address. Should you wish to add a secondary “ship to address” onto your credit card by calling the credit card company and adding it, we can confirm that this has been done and in this case we will ship to an alternate address. We will require the 1-800 number on the back of the card in order to contact the credit card company to confirm. Please inform us when this has been completed and one of the representatives from our company will take the appropriate steps required. You may also add all of this information in the “additional notes” section of your order. Please note that without the 1-800 number on the back of the card, we are unable to confirm this information, please ensure that this number as well as the alternate ship to information is in the notes section of the order. Should the credit card issuer not allow you to add a secondary ship to address, the option to fill out the credit card consent form and provide the additional information required, is available. Please see “International Shipping” for more details and information on how to acquire one of these forms.
Damages
A damaged package will only be re-shipped once the courier or shipping company has done a complete investigation on the nature of the damage and then issuing an insurance refund to us. We are unable to issue refunds on damaged packages. Once the investigation by the courier or shipping company is complete, there will be a resolution. If the damaged package claim is granted to us, we will re-shipped the package to the verified address on file with your credit card. Please ensure you have purchased the appropriate amount of insurance to cover the replacement value of your order if this should happen. Fta Bonus Inc. is not responsible for under insured lost packages.
Missing Items
In the rare case that you are missing one of the items you ordered, we will require you to call us at 866-726-7287 within 3 days of delivery to confirm that missing item isn’t already on route by supplying you with a tracking number. If an item is missing we will go through the same steps above for lost packages. We may require you to take some photographs of the box and packaging that your order came in. This will aid us in determining why you have a missing item or if there was a warehouse shipping error on our part. We require 5 business days for an investigation as to why an item was missing, after we have received your photos.
Additional Information Regarding Shipping
We will ship your order from any one of our distribution centers in various areas of the countries US or Canada, sometimes directly from the manufacturer. Your package may not specifically say "Fta Bonus Inc." on the box. Please do not return the package under the assumption that it is something you did not order. The method by which your package is shipped is to your advantage and was specifically designed this way to effectively get the products you have purchased at FtaBonus.com directly to you in fastest way possible. How your package arrives to you will never impact the amount you were originally charged for shipping.
For your protection we add a signature service to all outgoing packages. When the courier or shipping company arrives at your home, they will want you to sign and confirm the shipment. We are unable to remove signature service from the shipment as it is documented proof that the package has arrived safely to the billing address of the credit card owner. If the package is returned to sender or unclaimed and returned back to our warehouse there will be a shipping cost incurred to you.
Backorders
In the event that Fta Bonus falls into a backorder situation you will be notified after you order via email. We do not forsee these situations and sometimes have no control due to manufacturer delays etc. In most cases we will not charge your credit card unless we are shipping other items.
In this case the items that are available to ship may be shipped and the remainder of the order placed on a backorder status. In other cases the entire order will be placed on hold until the full order is available to ship. Should we receive cancellation of these orders after some items have already shipped you will incur a cancellation fee. Items returned to sender will be the responsibility of the customer and will be charged for the cost of shipping these items to the address requested and returned to our warehouse. This will result in two shipping charges.

Open Box Items

Only factory trained technicians are authorized to upgrade software to an FTA receiver. In the event that an FTA receiver is returned as defective and it is determined that factory or third party software was incorrectly installed which caused the damage, you will be charged a technicians fee, a repair fee, and return shipping. The fastest and safest way to get an FTA receiver repaired or replaced under the manufactures warranty terms is to contact the product manufacture and have one of their factory trained technicians look at the receiver.
