Please drop us an email at support@docucarparts.co.uk with some photos of the damaged battery and box it came in together with your order number and we will get back to you. 

Please pack the product up and send it to us by recorded means. We will test the product and if found to be faulty will dispatch a replacement.

Please note that all returned batteries must be packaged to a minimum standard to avoid damage and leakage. To achieve this level please follow these steps:

  1. Package the battery inside a cardboard box.
  2. Please ensure there is at least 1 inch of packaging around the battery inside the box to help protect against courier damage.
  3. Seal the box and write 'This way Up' so it can be clearly seen by the courier.
  4. Please be aware that any damage incurred during transit due to poor packaging will render any claim invalid.

The best way to return the battery to us is to use an online courier comparison service such as PARCEL2GO. When listing the item for return please refer to it as an 'accumulator'.

*** Please DO NOT USE Evri (Hermes), DPD, Royal Mail or Inpost as they may not be willing to carry the items. ***

Please bear in mind that 50% of batteries returned to us for testing are just flat and need recharging! 

Upon inspection, there may be a redelivery cost incurred should the battery are found not faulty.

Please check if you have received the acid in a separate bottle/packaging prior to contacting us so that we can assist you further.
