FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
GENERAL
Yes! Oui. Si. Ja. Kyllä! We’re owned by Elisa, the largest telecommunications company in Finland. We also use an international standard in payment protection, Braintree and 3D Security, so you’re safe with us.
We take online security extremely seriously and have taken rigorous precautions to make sure that your information is processed with confidentiality and accuracy. Read more about our privacy policy.
We want to ensure your confidence when buying from shop.epictv.com and to get the most security we suggest the following techie precautions:
INSTALL SECURITY SOFTWARE
Most threats come from malicious software or viruses so you need to ensure they are kept out like the cold. Make sure your computer is installed with antivirus and anti-spyware software and a firewall. Mmmm, fire.
GET UPDATES
Security Software manufacturers constantly respond to new threats. They do so with updates that iron out any bugs – so make sure and update regularly to keep your security software at its most effective.
PASSWORD PROTECTION
Use strong and smart passwords to log in. “Password” is not a great choice. Use upper and lower case characters (PaSsWoRd?), add numbers (P455w0Rd?) and special characters to your password. This will make it more difficult for others to guess. Regularly change your password and remember – always log out at the end of a session.
CHECK FOR THE PADLOCK ICON
It will appear in your internet browser when you start the secure payment process on our site. No padlock? No go.
DON’T SHARE PERSONAL INFORMATION
EpicTV will never e-mail or call you to ask you to disclose or verify your EpicTV.com password, credit card or bank account number. We’re too busy! If you are contacted or receive an unsolicited email asking you for any of this information, disregard the request and report the incident to our Customer Service team. They’ll handle it...

PRICE & PAYMENT
Glad you asked! For orders placed in the EU, prices include VAT (Value Added Tax) charged at the rate appropriate to the destination country of the order. For a few EU countries and some of the delivery options, we deduct the VAT from the final amount in the shopping cart. In those cases, VAT is still payable but it will be collected by the delivery company from you when the order enters your country. When you pay VAT in our shop at checkout (for most EU countries this is the case), you're all set and the order is delivered without any other charges to your delivery address. Please note that local tax and customs duties may apply. For full details please consult your local customs office. If you select a currency or a delivery country outside the EU, prices will be displayed VAT-free. You can find out how much import duties are with this great free calculator here. Whilst we do our best to ensure prices are up to date and correct, errors may occur and in this case, we'll contact you before your order is shipped. (Still glad you asked?!)
You can pay by either credit or debit card, Paypal, via bank transfer, Google Pay* or Apple Pay* (* available to supported countries only ). We use Braintree, a Paypal Company and international payment platform used to process payments by both card and Paypal, so your information is completely safe with us. If you choose to pay via Bank transfer by selecting the payment option “IBAN Payment” during the checkout, you will then receive our bank account details in your order confirmation email. Please note that we must receive the payment to our bank account within 10 banking days after the purchase. Otherwise, we will have to cancel your order. Important: To avoid any delay in the management of your order, please use your order number from your confirmation email as the reference for your bank transfer. Your bank may charge a transfer fee for this option. For international transfers, you are always charged a "cross border transfer" fee on top of the "purchase price". Your bank will be able to provide you with more information about this. If we do not receive the full amount of your purchase, your order will be delayed. Once the full amount has been received, your order will be processed. Depending on your bank the transfer could take between 5 to 10 working days before we are actually able to see your payment.
We accept €, £, $, CHF, A$, NOK, SEK, ¥ and CAD. Just select your currency of choice below the "My Account" button in the top-right corner of our site and shazam! Please note we are unable to accept payments in USD for orders outside the USA. If you'd like to pay in USD please make sure you are a US customer and that you provide us with a delivery address in the United States.
Taxes (VAT) are included for orders delivered to countries inside the EU*. In order to continue providing a convenient, hassle-free delivery experience to you, our customer, we now offer DHL Full Service Express and DHL Full Service Economy deliveries to most EU countries. When you select one of the DHL Full Service options, we continue to cover your VAT obligation as part of the price of the product in the shop, just like before Brexit. DHL as the delivery company will then deal with all possible border formalities on your behalf, and you’ll get door-to-door delivery service exactly like before. *The DHL Full Service delivery option is available to the following 15 EU countries: Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Netherlands, Portugal, Slovenia, Spain, and Sweden. Orders to other EU countries than those listed above will be VAT-free at the checkout, but your order will still be subject to VAT and some DHL service charges when it arrives in your country, and DHL will contact you for payment before delivery. They then clear the EU customs on your behalf and deliver the package to you. For the USA, non-EU countries in Europe, and other international deliveries the VAT is either omitted or automatically subtracted during the checkout depending on the shipping country. However, there will be Customs Clearance Fees depending on the country and the value of the order, discount/store credit or any special promotion will not be included in the export tax document. These are charged by customs for processing the importation of your order. Please see our Shipping Fees section for more details for deliveries to the USA and non-EU countries.

We always try to pack orders in the best fitting packaging possible. Depending on the item(s) this may mean one of our Jiffy bags, one of our boxes or one of our plastic bags. We do this for three reasons: 1/the best-fit packaging is usually the most cost-effective and helps us keep our packaging and our courier costs down so we can continue to provide you with the most competitive prices around. 2/With smaller packages there is a better chance that your order will fit through your letter box, avoiding delayed deliveries and repeated delivery attempts. 3/Smaller and more compact parcels take up less space on planes, trains and automobiles so it’s better for the environment. Win-win!
We will send you an email when your order has been dispatched. If you'd like to change your delivery address before you receive this email, get in touch with us at support@epictv.com.

First check the status of your delivery on the DHL or Royal Mail website, as it might just be unexpectedly held up. Your DHL or Royal Mail tracking number can be found in your dispatch confirmation email (check your spam folder if you can't find it).

WARRANTY
If your new item has a warranty, basic information can usually be found on the tags or somewhere in the original packaging. However, it’s also important to check the manufacturer’s website for the full details.
Depending on the manufacturer, warranties can last any time from a few weeks to the lifetime of the product. When you buy a product, make sure you check the individual warranty length and keep your order confirmation so you know when it’s valid from.
A warranty covers any unexpected damage or fault that can be put down to manufacturing mistakes or doesn’t meet the brand’s advertised standards. This can include anything from seams coming apart to malfunctions in technical equipment.
Warranties do not normally cover accidental damage, loss or damage due to improper care. For more details on this issue view our warranty page, and if you’re still not sure, don’t hesitate to get in touch with us on our Contact Us page. It’s also a good idea to check the manufacturer’s website for their warranty terms and conditions.
Send an email to support@epictv.com with your order number, explaining what the problem is (don’t forget to include some pictures) and we will communicate with the manufacturer on your behalf to verify whether or not your item is valid for warranty. The manufacturer always has the final decision. If your item is approved for warranty, fill out a warranty form and send it back to us so we can provide you with a replacement or refund. Have a look at our warranty terms and conditions for more details.
To start the warranty process, you will always need to provide proof of purchase. This can be your order number or confirmation email. You may also be required to send photos or videos of your faulty item.
We will sort your warranty as fast as possible, but the whole process usually takes around six to eight weeks. For more information, have a look at our warranty page, and if you have any questions speak to us from our Contact Us page.
