You can also reduce the number of orders, let’s say if you had mistakenly ordered ten(10) devices instead of one (1), you can reduce from the Quantity dropdown, and one will be delivered and billed. Read more about the Refund Policy here.

You can explore methods like customer care chats, calls, or emails, but I prefer this one because I find it way more straightforward than the rest because it is self-service. If you want to read more about their terms and conditions, visit this page.
