Refund Policy
At SME Consulting Services, we are committed to providing our clients with high-quality software development services. We understand that there may be instances where a refund is requested, and we have established the following policy to ensure a fair resolution. Please review this policy carefully.
1. Eligibility for Refunds
Refunds may be issued under the following conditions:
- Project Cancellation:
- If a client cancels a project before the commencement of work, a full refund will be provided.
- If a client cancels a project after work has begun but before 50% completion, a partial refund may be granted based on the work completed.
- Non-Delivery of Project:
- If SME Consulting Services fails to deliver the project within the agreed-upon timeline without prior notice or mutual agreement for an extension, the client is eligible for a full refund.
- Scope of Work Not Met:
- If the final deliverable does not meet the specifications outlined in the signed agreement, and SME Consulting Services is unable to rectify the issues within a reasonable timeframe, a partial refund may be issued based on the undelivered scope.
- Technical Issues:
- If there are unresolved technical issues that render the software unusable, and SME Consulting Services is unable to fix these issues within a reasonable timeframe, a partial refund may be considered.
2. Non-Eligibility for Refunds
Refunds will not be issued under the following circumstances:
- Change of Mind:
- Refunds will not be granted for a change of mind once the project has commenced.
- Client-Induced Delays:
- If delays in the project are due to the client’s failure to provide necessary information, feedback, or resources, no refund will be provided.
- Third-Party Software or Tools:
- Refunds will not be issued for issues related to third-party software, tools, or services that SME Consulting Services does not control.
- Completed Projects:
