coverage's. Please call today for our service contract price schedules.
One Year On-Site Parts and Labor Warranty
All new computers, monitors, keyboards, mice, hard drives, floppy and CD-ROM drives, video-network-I/O adapter cards, motherboards, printers, scanners, modems, RAM memory, computer cases, and power supplies sold by Fin-Tec Service Corp. are covered for a period of one (1) year from the date of invoice for both parts and labor to correct any defects in materials and workmanship or malfunction of the hardware
Any additional devices or hardware not sold by Fin-Tec which may directly or indirectly connect to or add on to a system sold and configured by Fin-Tec are excluded from this warranty. Any software programs and perishable items such as printer paper, printer ribbons, printer cartridges, floppy diskettes, media, and all consumable hardware and software items are not covered under the one (1) year warranty.
Extended Warranty Service

Inspection of Equipment to be Maintained
Prior to originating a service contract, Fin-Tec must inspect all of the equipment to be maintained. The customer may be required to provide a copy of the original equipment invoice. The purpose of the inspection is to provide Fin-Tec with an opportunity to evaluate the equipment to be maintained and to confirm that it is in working order. The inspection process may require several days before its completion.
If, after inspection, the customer elects not to purchase the service contract from Fin-Tec, then the customer will be billed at the applicable prevailing service rate for the time utilized to perform the inspection. Depending on the total number of units to be inspected, Fin-Tec may require a minimal inspection fee.
Fin-Tec service contracts are valid only in the United States and will not be honored in any other country. Fin-Tec service contracts can be canceled after one (1) year and are non-refundable once processed by Fin-Tec Service Corporation. While a service contract is in effect, the customer must contact Fin-Tec in writing or by telephone to obtain service.
