Terms and Conditions

Once your application has been approved, our finance partner V12 will verify your identity by performing a ‘pre-authorisation’ pending charge of £0.50 against your chosen credit or debit card, which must be registered to the same address you supplied on the finance application form. Please understand that no money will be debited from your card; this common process ensures your identity and helps to protect both sellers and customers from fraudulent finance agreements.

Products purchased on finance can only be delivered to the address supplied on the application form.

Pay by Finance for interest-bearing credit products is available between 6 and 48 months, subject to status. Other conditions may apply and we cannot guarantee that your application will be accepted.

Stock will not be allocated until the application has been approved and fully completed with your deposit paid.

We reserve the right to withdraw finance on certain products at any time. Pay by Finance is provided through Rich Tone Music’s external partner, V12. If your application is successful you will enter into a Credit Agreement with Secure Trust Bank Plc, who is V12’s parent company.

Should you cancel your credit agreement and have already received products from us, then you will be liable to pay us in full for the product (unless your cancellation rights apply).


Cooling Off Period

You will benefit from our 14 day cooling off period should you change your mind after entering a finance agreement through Rich Tone Music.

There are two options depending on what you would like to do:

  • If you would like to keep the goods but cancel the finance: Contact Rich Tone Music and pay for the order via an alternative means (e.g. a credit card). Rich Tone Music will cancel your credit agreement with V12.
  • If you do not want to keep the goods: Contact Rich Tone Music to organise a return of your order. Goods must be returned in the same condition they were received. When they are received Rich Tone Music will cancel your credit agreement with V12.

Declined Applications

V12 may decline an application for a number of reasons. Please note: we cannot guarantee that any application will be accepted.

If your application isn’t successful, you can still purchase the item using an alternative payment method.

Applications may be declined for one of the following reasons:

  • You do not meet the eligibility criteria
  • Adverse credit reference agency information
  • Your credit score
  • You are over committed financially
  • Existing account performance with other lenders

If you do wish to appeal the decision made by V12, it’s advised you obtain an up to date copy of your credit report before contacting V12 directly.
