PostMyDoc Business – Refund Policy

1. About this Refund Policy

1.1 What this policy covers. This Refund Policy explains when you can cancel or change an order, when you are entitled to a refund, replacement or re-supply, and how to ask for one, for orders placed through the PostMyDoc Business Portal. It applies to the B2B service only. The consumer website and consumer app have their own separate arrangements.

1.2 It works with our Terms. This policy forms part of, and should be read with, the PostMyDoc Business Terms of Service (the Agreement), the Privacy Policy and the DPA. Words defined in the Terms have the same meaning here. If there is any inconsistency about the commercial relationship, the Terms prevail; on data-protection matters, the DPA prevails. Nothing in any of those documents limits your rights under the Australian Consumer Law.

1.3 Your statutory rights come first. Nothing in this policy excludes, restricts or modifies any right or remedy you have under the Australian Consumer Law or any other law that cannot lawfully be excluded. Where this policy offers you more than the law requires, we honour it; where the law gives you more, the law applies.

1.4 Business use. The Portal is provided for business use. This policy is written for business customers, but the consumer guarantees described in clause 2 can still apply to acquisitions made by a business.

2. Your rights under the Australian Consumer Law

2.1 Consumer guarantees. Our goods and services come with guarantees that cannot be excluded under the Australian Consumer Law. The services we supply — printing your document and arranging its postage — come with guarantees that we will provide them with due care and skill, that they will be reasonably fit for any purpose you have told us about, and that they will be supplied within a reasonable time. The printed item we produce comes with guarantees including that it is of acceptable quality and matches any description we have given.

2.2 When the guarantees apply. Under the Australian Consumer Law these guarantees apply, and cannot be contracted out of, where the goods or services are of a kind ordinarily acquired for personal, domestic or household use, or where the amount payable does not exceed $100,000. Orders through the Portal will generally fall within this, so we treat the consumer guarantees as applying to your orders.

2.3 Major failures — you choose. If there is a major failure with the service we supply, you may cancel the affected order and obtain a refund for the unused part, or keep the order and ask us to compensate you for any drop in value. If there is a major failure with the printed item, you may choose a refund or a replacement. You may also be entitled to compensation for any other reasonably foreseeable loss or damage.

2.4 Minor failures — we may re-supply. If a failure is minor and can be put right, we may choose to remedy it within a reasonable time — usually by re-printing and re-posting your order at no charge — rather than giving a refund.

2.5 What makes a failure “major”. A failure is generally major if, for example, the problem cannot be fixed, cannot be fixed within a reasonable time, or is so significant that you would not have placed the order had you known about it. Whether a failure is major or minor is determined by the Australian Consumer Law, not decided unilaterally by us against you.

2.6 Assessing the problem. We may ask you for details, and assess what went wrong, before we provide a remedy. We will not require you to pursue a third party (such as our printer or Australia Post) for a remedy that we are responsible for.

2.7 More information. You can read about your rights under the consumer guarantees on the ACCC website at accc.gov.au.

3. Why timing matters: how the service works

3.1 Print once, post, delete. When you place an order, we print your document once, hand it to Australia Post, and then permanently delete the file within 24 hours of dispatch under the Burn After Reading Policy. Orders placed before 2pm AEST on a business day are dispatched the same business day.

3.2 Once it is posted, it cannot be recalled. After we hand your mail to Australia Post, we cannot intercept, recall or alter it. After deletion we no longer hold your document and cannot re-send it unless you upload it again.

3.3 Why this matters for refunds. Because the work is performed quickly and cannot be undone, the window to cancel or change an order is short. The rest of this policy explains what is possible at each stage. None of this affects your consumer guarantees if something goes wrong on our side.

4. Cancelling or changing an order

4.1 Change of mind. You do not have an automatic right to a refund simply because you change your mind. However, if you contact us before your order has been marked as dispatched in our system, we will cancel it and refund what you paid in full. We do not charge a cancellation fee.

4.2 How to ask. To cancel or change an order, email us at info@postmydoc.au with your order number as early as you can — ideally well before the 2pm AEST same-business-day dispatch cut-off.

4.3 What is possible at each stage.

(a) Before your order is marked as dispatched. We can cancel it and refund you in full, at no charge. If you need to change order details, such as a recipient address, contact us as early as possible — a change is only possible while there is still time before we print.

(b) Once your order is marked as dispatched. The order has been handed to Australia Post and the file is being deleted under the Burn After Reading Policy, so it cannot be cancelled, changed or recalled.

4.4 Problems we notice. If we spot an obvious problem with an order before printing — for example, a file that will not print correctly — we may pause it and contact you rather than print it.

5. If something goes wrong on our side

5.1 Our responsibility. If we do not meet a consumer guarantee — for example, we print the wrong document, fail to dispatch your order, dispatch it materially late where timing mattered and you had told us, post it to the wrong address because of our error, or the printing is defective or illegible because of something we did — you are entitled to a remedy under clause 2.

5.2 How we put it right. For a minor problem that we cause, or that is otherwise within our control, we will re-print and re-post your order at no charge, as quickly as we reasonably can. For a major failure, you may choose a refund or, where relevant, a replacement, and you may be entitled to compensation for reasonably foreseeable loss. Where a problem is caused by a third party such as Australia Post, clause 7 explains how we handle it.

5.3 Re-supply needs your file. Because we delete your document after dispatch, putting a problem right may require you to upload the document again. We will make this as easy as possible, and we will not charge you again for an order we got wrong.

5.4 Postage on re-supply. Where a remedy involves re-posting, we will use at least the Australia Post service you originally paid for.

6. If the problem is not something we caused

6.1 Information and choices you give us. We print and post exactly what you upload, to the address and with the options you select. A refund is not generally available where the issue results from your own information or choices — for example, uploading the wrong file or version, a mistake or typo in your document, entering an incorrect or incomplete recipient address, or choosing a postage option that did not suit your needs. In those cases we have supplied the service correctly and the consumer guarantees have been met.

6.2 We will still help where we can. If you realise you have made a mistake, contact us straight away. If your order has not yet entered printing, we will do our best to fix it (see clause 4). Once it has been dispatched we cannot change it.

6.3 Address accuracy. Please check recipient details carefully before you pay. Mail sent to an address you provided that is wrong or out of date is not a failure on our part.

7. Australia Post delivery problems

7.1 Delivery is performed by Australia Post. Our service is to print your document and hand it to Australia Post for delivery. Once we have dispatched it, delivery times and handling are Australia Post's responsibility and are subject to Australia Post's own terms and delivery standards.

7.2 We monitor every envelope. We monitor the tracking of every envelope we dispatch. If something looks wrong — for example, an item delivered to the wrong address, returned to sender, a tracked or express item taking unusually long, or an item that appears to be lost — we will proactively contact Australia Post to investigate and, where possible, work out a resolution.

7.3 We deal with Australia Post for you. We lodge enquiries and any compensation claims with Australia Post on your behalf, and we keep you informed of the outcome. You do not need to contact Australia Post yourself.

7.4 How we resolve an Australia Post problem. Because Australia Post's handling is outside our control, the right resolution depends on what our investigation finds. Where an Australia Post error has caused the problem, we will decide — acting reasonably and with your interests in mind — whether to refund the order, re-print and re-post it to you at no charge, or, in some cases, ask you to pay again for a fresh send. We will explain the outcome and do our best to achieve the best result for you.

7.5 Delays after on-time dispatch. A postal delay by Australia Post is not, by itself, a failure of our service, and a delay in delivery after we have dispatched on time is generally not a basis for a refund of our fees. If you need greater certainty about timing, choose a tracked or express Australia Post option at checkout.

7.6 Your statutory rights are unaffected. None of this limits your consumer guarantees in relation to the service we ourselves supply (see clause 2); those guarantees, and the remedies in clause 5, apply to any failure we cause regardless of anything in this clause.

8. How refunds are made

8.1 Method. Where you are entitled to a refund, we will generally make it using the same method you used to pay. Card payments are refunded to the original card through our payment provider, Stripe.

8.2 Pay-later / credit accounts. If your account is approved for invoicing, a refund is made as a credit to your account or an adjustment to your next statement, rather than as a card refund.

8.3 Partial refunds. Where only part of an order is affected, we may refund or re-supply only the affected part.

8.4 Timing. We process approved refunds promptly. A refund to the original payment method is typically reflected within 5–10 business days, depending on your bank or card issuer.

9. How to request a refund or report a problem

9.1 Contact us. To request a refund or report a problem, email info@postmydoc.au with your order number and a description of what went wrong. If it relates to print quality or the wrong document, tell us as soon as you notice it.

9.2 Tell us quickly — but your rights are not time-barred. Because we permanently delete your document within 24 hours of dispatch, we will not hold a copy to review after that point. Reporting a problem quickly helps us investigate it properly. This does not place a time limit on your rights under the Australian Consumer Law.

9.3 What we may ask for. We may ask for details such as the order number, what the problem is and, where it helps, a photo of what was received, so that we can assess it and put it right.

9.4 No need to go elsewhere. For anything we are responsible for, deal with us directly — you do not need to approach our printer or Australia Post yourself.

10. GST and refunds

10.1 GST status. PostMyDoc is not registered for GST and does not charge GST, so a refund is of the amount you actually paid. If PostMyDoc becomes registered for GST in the future, refunds and any tax invoices or adjustment notes will be handled in accordance with the GST law and clause 9 of the Terms.

11. Changes to this policy

11.1 Updates. We may update this Refund Policy from time to time. The version that applies to an order is the version published when you placed that order. We will take reasonable steps to tell you about material changes, consistent with our Terms, and we will not apply a change retrospectively to reduce your rights for an order already placed.
