PEPZOR CANCELLATION AND REFUND POLICY
Updated: December 5, 2024
At PEPZOR, we strive to ensure a seamless and satisfactory experience for all our users. This Cancellation and Refund Policy ("Policy") outlines the terms and conditions for cancellations and refunds for our services, including Bike Taxi, Car Taxi, Auto Taxi, and Parcel Delivery. By using PEPZOR's services, you agree to the terms of this Policy. For any questions or concerns, please contact us at support@PEPZOR.com.
1. CANCELLATION POLICY
1.1 Cancellations by Users
PEPZOR allows users to cancel their bookings for various reasons. However, certain cancellation charges may apply based on the timing of the cancellation and the type of service booked. Please review the conditions below:
- Ride Cancellations: If a user cancels a ride within a specified time limit (e.g., within 2 minutes of booking), no cancellation charges may be applied. However, if the ride is canceled after this window, a cancellation fee may be deducted, which will vary depending on the type of service (Bike, Car, or Auto Taxi).
- Parcel Delivery Cancellations: Cancellations for parcel delivery must be made before the PEPZOR Poilet (driver) picks up the parcel. Once the pickup has been completed, cancellations are generally not permitted. If the user cancels after pickup, no refund will be provided.
1.2 Cancellations by PEPZOR
PEPZOR reserves the right to cancel any booking under the following circumstances:
- Driver Availability: If a PEPZOR Poilet is not available within a reasonable distance or timeframe to complete the service, PEPZOR may cancel the booking.
- Operational or Safety Concerns: PEPZOR may cancel services if there are operational issues, technical failures, safety concerns, or natural events (e.g., extreme weather conditions) that impact the ability to fulfill the service safely and effectively.
In such cases, users will be notified immediately, and any applicable fees or charges will be refunded.
1.3 No-Show Policy
If the user is a "no-show" (i.e., fails to be present at the pickup location) for a booked service, the following conditions will apply:
- Wait Time and Charges: The PEPZOR Poilet may wait for a specified duration at the pickup location, after which the booking may be canceled as a no-show.
- Cancellation Fee: In cases of no-shows, a cancellation fee may be applied and deducted from the user's payment method or wallet.
2. REFUND POLICY
2.1 General Refund Policy
Refunds are processed based on specific conditions related to the type of service, reason for cancellation, and any applicable charges. Refund eligibility is determined as follows:
- Eligible Refund Scenarios: Refunds will be processed if:
- The PEPZOR Poilet cancels the service due to lack of availability or other operational issues.
- The service cannot be completed due to technical failures on PEPZOR's end.
- Ineligible Refund Scenarios: Refunds will not be processed if:
- The user cancels the service after the driver has started the trip or pickup.
- The user is a no-show or cancels outside the allowed cancellation period.
- The user provides incorrect pickup/delivery details, resulting in the service being unable to be completed.
2.2 Refund Process and Timeline
Refunds, if applicable, will be processed as follows:
- Timeline for Refunds: PEPZOR will process refunds within 7–10 business days from the date the cancellation request is approved. Please note that certain delays may occur due to banking procedures or payment provider timelines.
- Refund to Original Payment Method: Refunds will generally be credited back to the user's original payment method (e.g., bank account, credit/debit card, or UPI) used during the booking. This applies to payments made via credit card, debit card, net banking, or UPI.
- Wallet Credits for Instant Refunds: If an instant refund is required, the refund amount will be credited to the user's PEPZOR Wallet within the app. The wallet balance can be used for future transactions on PEPZOR but is not transferable to external accounts or payment methods.
2.3 Refund for Cashback and Promotional Credits
Cashback points or promotional credits earned through the PEPZOR app are non-refundable and non-transferable. In case of cancellations, any cashback or promotional credits applied to the booking will be forfeited, and the refund will only cover the actual amount paid by the user, excluding cashback or promotional credits.
3. SPECIFIC CONDITIONS AND TERMS
The following specific conditions apply to different PEPZOR services:
3.1 Bike, Car, and Auto Taxi Services
- Cancellation Charges: For ride-hailing services, cancellation charges will vary based on the service type. Users are encouraged to cancel within the free cancellation window (if applicable) to avoid cancellation fees.
- Refunds for Delayed or Unavailable Services: If the PEPZOR Poilet is unable to reach the pickup location within a reasonable timeframe, users may request a cancellation without incurring charges, and a full refund will be processed if a payment was made.
3.2 Parcel Pickup and Delivery Services
- Timing of Cancellations: Cancellations are permitted before the pickup is completed. Once the pickup is confirmed, the service is considered in progress, and no cancellation or refund will be granted unless due to unavoidable issues from PEPZOR's end.
- Damaged or Undelivered Parcels: In the unlikely event of parcel damage or non-delivery, users should report the issue to PEPZOR customer support within 24 hours of the delivery attempt. Refunds or compensation, if applicable, will be determined on a case-by-case basis based on investigation outcomes.
3.3 Wallet Balance and Cashback Points
- Wallet Refunds: For users opting for instant refunds, the refunded amount will be credited to their PEPZOR Wallet, where it can be used to pay for future services. Wallet balances are non-transferable and cannot be withdrawn to an external bank account.
- Cashback Points: Cashback points earned through PEPZOR services are subject to the terms of use outlined in the app. These points cannot be redeemed for cash, transferred, or refunded, and they may be forfeited if unused within the specified validity period.
