Refund Policy

Introduction

At Lumbus, we strive to provide excellent service and customer satisfaction. This Refund Policy outlines the circumstances under which refunds may be requested and granted for our eSIM services.

Important: eSIM services are digital products. Once activated or used, refunds may not be available except in specific circumstances outlined below.

UK Consumer Rights

Under the UK Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013, you have the right to cancel your purchase within 14 days of purchase. However, for digital content (including eSIMs):

• If the eSIM has been activated or used, you waive your right to cancellation as the service has been fully performed with your consent.
• If the eSIM has not been activated, you retain your 14-day cancellation right.

1. Change of Mind / Cooling-Off Period

Eligibility

You may request a full refund for a change of mind if ALL of the following conditions are met:

• The eSIM has not been installed on any device
• The eSIM has not been activated or used in any way
• The QR code has not been scanned
• No data has been consumed from the plan
• The purchase was made within the last 14 days
• The purchase was made directly from Lumbus (not through a third-party reseller)

Process

1. Contact our support team at support@lumbus.com within 14 days of purchase
2. Include your order ID and reason for refund
3. Our team will verify the eSIM has not been activated
4. If eligible, refund will be processed within 7-14 business days to your original payment method

2. Device Incompatibility or Carrier Lock

Eligibility

You may request a refund if your device is incompatible or carrier-locked, provided:

• You have not scanned the QR code or used the installation details
• No data has been consumed from the eSIM plan
• The purchase was made within the last 14 days
• You can provide proof of incompatibility or carrier lock (e.g., screenshot showing error message, carrier confirmation)

Required Documentation

• Device model and operating system version
• Proof from your carrier that your device is locked (if applicable)

3. Technical Issues or Service Failure

When We Will Refund

You are eligible for a full refund if:

• eSIM fails to activate due to an error on our part or our eSIM provider
• No network connectivity despite following activation instructions correctly
• Persistent technical issues that prevent normal use of the service
• Incorrect eSIM delivered (wrong region or data amount)
• Service significantly different from what was advertised

Process

1. Contact our 24/7 support team immediately at support@lumbus.com
2. Provide your order ID and detailed description of the issue
3. Our team will troubleshoot the problem and attempt to resolve it
4. If the issue cannot be resolved, we will offer:
   • Full refund, or
   • Replacement eSIM at no cost, or
   • Store credit for future purchases

4. Network Coverage Issues

Not Eligible for Refund

Refunds are NOT available for:

• Poor or weak signal in specific locations (network coverage varies)
• Slower speeds than expected (speeds vary by location and network congestion)
• Temporary network outages by the local carrier
• Rural or remote areas with limited coverage

When We May Offer Compensation

If you experience complete lack of service in an area advertised as covered, contact us immediately. We will:

• Verify with our network provider
• Check if there's a known outage or issue
• Offer store credit or full refund if the issue is on our provider's end

5. Partial Refunds

In certain circumstances, we may offer a partial refund based on:

• Data used: If you've consumed some data before the issue occurred
• Time elapsed: If the plan was active for several days before the problem
• Service quality: If service was intermittent rather than completely unavailable
