How to hire a bit
Just select the Hire option from the menu when offered the choice
of buy or hire. You then purchase the item as you would any other item from our site,
but have the option to return the bit after trying it for 14 days (starting from the
day after you sign for the parcel and finishing on the day you send the parcel back
to us) for a refund less the hire charge. If you wish to keep the bit for longer,
you may do so at a weekly rate of half the initial hire cost (if you eventually decide
to keep the bit you will still have no hire cost to pay however many weeks you have retained it).
How bit hiring works
When hiring a bit, you initially pay the full cost of the bit, and we will send you
either a new bit ( 75% of the time) or a previously hired bit if there is one available
(please note we are not able to accept requests for new bits to be sent in preference
of hire bits, if a hire bit is available it will be sent). You are then able to use
the bit for 14 days (starting from the day after you sign for the parcel and finishing
on the day you send the parcel back to us). At any time during this period, you can decide to:
Hire charges for bits:
If you return the bit as unsuitable within 14 days and you paid under £100
for the bit, you will be refunded the cost of the bit less £15.
If you return the bit as unsuitable within 14 days and you paid over £100 for the bit, you will be refunded the cost of the bit less £20.
