Yealink IP Phones: Is Your Reseller Authorized?
It happens to many people on a daily basis. A product is purchased from an unauthorized online reseller, and because the seller isn’t authorized, there is no after-sales service or support. Additionally, products may be refurbished or defective and come in little to no packaging. Recently, Yealink customers have been encountering this issue. When tracing back the source of defective, second-hand, and broken products, Yealink identified all of these products coming from unauthorized online resellers.
Only purchases made through a Yealink Authorized Online Reseller is secured by Yealink’s IP Phone Warranty Service. To ensure that product purchases are satisfactory and that Yealink customers receive the support benefits that come with Yealink phones, Yealink has released an official statement:
