- Where technical problems arise

However, if the delay is substantial, or is at risk of becoming so, you have the right to end the Rental Agreement and receive a refund.
- If no one is available at your address to receive your Appliance, we will leave instructions for rearranging the delivery. If we do not then hear from you, we will contact you. We reserve the right to charge you for storage and further delivery costs. In the event that we cannot reach you or rearrange delivery of the Appliance, we may end the Rental Agreement. In this case, clause 9.1 will apply.

We will try to rearrange the installation, however if this does not prove possible, we reserve the right to end the Rental Agreement. In this case, clause 9.1 will apply.

If we fail to deliver your Appliance on time and if any of these
conditions apply:
- We refused to make the delivery
- It was essential to have your delivery before an agreed deadline, taking relevant conditions into account, or

If the Appliance is lost, stolen or damaged, you will still be liable for the rental payments.
- Yes You Can will remain the owner of the Appliance – including hardware and software - throughout the effective period of this Rental Agreement.

INFORMATION STATEMENT
This statement gives you some general information about the rights and obligations of the parties to a Rental Agreement.
RECEIVING YOUR RENTAL AGREEMENT
Your lessor (in this case Yes You Can) must give you a copy of your Rental Agreement (consumer lease) with this Statement and you should receive both documents not later than 14 days after the start date of the Agreement.
If you want another copy of your Rental Agreement you can request one in writing from the lessor. They may charge you a fee, however they must provide you with the copy within 14 days of your written request if the contract came into existence one year or less before your request. Otherwise it’s 30 days.
INFORMATION YOUR RENTAL AGREEMENT SHOULD CONTAIN
Your Rental Agreement should set out your rights and obligations and include information about:
- The Appliance you’ve agreed to rent
- How much you must pay before the appliance is delivered and installed
- Any additional charges you may have to pay
- The amount of your rental payments
- The date your first rental payment is due and either the dates of future payments or the intervals between them
- The total number of rental payments
- The total amount of rent you’ll pay during the life of the Rental Agreement
- When you can end your lease
- Any obligations you may have when the Rental Agreement ends
If your lease does not contain all this information, or you believe the Rental Agreement is unjust, speak to the lessor and discuss the matter. If you’re not happy with the outcome, contact your lessor’s external dispute resolution scheme or get legal advice. You may have rights against the lessor in the event of a dispute.
The lessor can make changes to the terms of the rental, provided they have stated this clearly in the Rental Agreement.
LOCATION OF APPLIANCES
If your lessor asks you where the rented Appliance is, you must provide the answer within seven days. If the Appliance is not in your possession, you must give the lessor as much information as possible to help them locate it.
Your Rental Agreement may also require you to inform the lessor whenever you relocate the goods, such as if you move house.
ENDING YOUR RENTAL AGREEMENT EARLY
You can end a Rental Agreement early by returning your Appliance to the lessor during business hours or any other time the lessor (or a court) agrees with you. Refer to your Rental Agreement as this may set out requirements regarding the condition of the Appliance.
You may also incur charges for ending your Rental Agreement early, or the lessor may owe you money if you’ve paid some of the rental payments in advance. Check your Rental Agreement and/or contact the lessor for specific final payment information.
DIFFICULTIES IN MAKING PAYMENTS
If you become unable to meet your payment obligations under your Rental Agreement, contact your lessor as soon as possible. You may be able to reach a temporary arrangement such as:
- Extending the term of your lease, thereby reducing each rental payment
- Extending the term of your lease and delaying rental payments for a set time, or
- Delaying rental payments for a set time, then increasing them later on over a shorter period
If the lessor turns down your request for a temporary arrangement, you can ask them to review the decision. If you’re still not happy with their decision, you can complain to your lessor’s external dispute resolution scheme.
You must try to resolve your complaint with the lessor before contacting their external dispute resolution scheme.
Your lessor can take action against you if you break the terms of your Rental Agreement. However, it’s illegal for them to harass you or threaten you for rental payments. If you think you are being unduly harassed or threatened, contact your lessor’s external dispute resolution scheme or seek legal advice.
REPOSSESSION
Your lessor can only enter a residence to take repossession of goods if it has a court’s approval or the written consent of the occupier. This is given by the occupier after the occupier has been informed in writing of the relevant section in the Consumer Credit Act 1974.
OTHER RIGHTS & OBLIGATIONS
UK law gives you other rights and obligations as a lessee. So read your Rental Agreement carefully and seek legal advice if you’re in any doubt.
