Returning Products for Repair
-----------------------------
A product sent directly to 3Com for repair must first be assigned a Return
Materials Authorization number (RMA). A product sent to 3Com without an RMA
number will be returned to the sender unopened, at the sender's expense.
When you call for an RMA number, be prepared to provide the product name,
serial number, and diagnostic error messages. Payment, shipping instructions,
and turnaround time will be confirmed when the RMA number is assigned.
To obtain an RMA number, call or fax:
Europe Phone (44) (0) 442 231000
Fax (44) (0) 442 236824
U.S. Phone (800) 876-3266
Fax (408) 764-7290
NOTE: RMA forms (except Europe) are available on CardFacts. Dial
(408) 727-7021.
