Quote from NSW Fair Trading

“A warranty against defects is usually limited by time. All suppliers, manufacturers and service providers that provide you with a warranty against defects must comply with that warranty. If they do not, you may bring an action against the person or business who provided the warranty, either under Australian Consumer Law or for breach of contract.”

“Our goods and services come with guarantees that cannot be excluded under Australian Consumer Law. For major failures with the service, you are entitled to: cancel your service contract with us, and refund for the unused portion, or reimbursement for its reduced value. You are also entitled to choose a refund or replacement for major failures with goods. If a failure with the goods or a service does amount to major failure, you are entitled to have the failure rectified in a reasonable time. If this is not done, you are entitled to a refund for the goods and to cancel the contract for the service and obtain a refund of any unused portion. You are also entitled to reimbursement for any other reasonably foreseeable loss or damage from a failure in the goods or service. ”
