FAQS

My Order

General Information

Why can't I unsubscribe from certain emails?

We send you certain service emails or emails related to a contractual relationship, for example:
  • because you have registered with us for a customer account and need our technical support in this context, or
  • because you have concluded a contract with us or because you want us to contact you about a possible conclusion of a contract.
These e-mails contain important information for you, which we (must) send to you. For this reason, you cannot unsubscribe from such e-mails.
Our marketing emails, on the other hand, contain an unsubscribe link at the bottom of the email, which you can use to unsubscribe at any time.

Registration Newsletter - Coupon / Unsubscribe Newsletter
You would like to receive the Teufel Newsletter?

For subscribing to the Teufel Newsletter, you will receive a voucher by e-mail.
Please note that the value of the voucher and/or the conditions (minimum order value, excluded products, etc.) may be variable. The voucher is valid for 30 days.
Do you want to unsubscribe from the newsletter?
In every Teufel newsletter, you will find a link "Unsubscribe from newsletter". You can find this unsubscribe link at the bottom of any email. 
If this method unexpectedly does not work, you can alternatively send an email to support@helpall0rder.com and request to unsubscribe from the newsletter.

Do the speakers come in colors other than those offered?

In order to be able to realise Teufel's usually very low sales prices, it is not possible to offer the speakers in quite a few housing designs.
This circumstance would drive up production and storage costs, which would result in significantly more expensive sales prices.

For security reasons, so-called 2-factor authentication (3D Secure) is now mandatory. In addition to entering the card details, there is a further authentication step in which it is confirmed that the credit card holder has actually initiated this payment.
Please note that the way the authentication is done (e.g. via SMS Tan or via App) depends on your bank and we have no influence over it.
The 2-factor authentication procedure must be activated for you by your bank before it can be used for the first time.
If you have any questions or problems, please contact the bank from which you received your credit card.

Delivery

When is the delivery?

Our shipping service providers (DHL, DHL International, freight forwarding) are still experiencing very high order volume, which may cause delivery delays or incomplete deliveries.
Please note:
You can track your shipment here. You only need your order number (starting with 3) from your order confirmation and your post code.
If you have only received part of your order, please be patient - the rest will come.
We will always work with our shipping service providers to ensure that your products reach you as quickly as possible.
 
The delivery date is generally within 3-5 working days; no more than 14 working days.
Deliveries to Switzerland can take up to 14 days - due to the processing of customs formalities - especially for freight forwarding shipments.
We refer to delivery dates deviating from this on our product pages.
For products that are not ready for dispatch within one working day, the delivery date is postponed by the number of days by which they are ready for dispatch at the latest.

I have not received a shipping confirmation.
 
Have you ordered something and have not received a shipping confirmation/tracking number by email?
If your order for deliverable products (please check our homepage again to see if what you have ordered is not sold out) was more than one working day ago, we have already dispatched your goods. Due to a technical breakdown, the sending of the shipping confirmation by email is unfortunately disrupted. Please wait 1-2 days before contacting us. Normally you will receive your shipment automatically during this period.

We do not deliver to packing stations.
Particularly large and/or heavy orders (over 31.5 kg) will be delivered by a forwarding agent. The contracted company will usually arrange an individual delivery date with you - for this, we need you to provide the telephone number in the course of the ordering process.
In case of delivery by a forwarding agent (within and outside Germany), i.e. for larger systems packed on a one-way pallet, the delivery is made to the front of the property (curb).

Below you will find instructions on how to properly package your product if you no longer have the original packaging. You can get cardboard boxes, edge protectors and filling material, some of which can be made to measure from online retailers or other stores.
For some products, we can also provide empty packaging by arrangement. If you are in doubt, please ask us for packaging.
Why does it matter?
In the course of shipping, there are various factors that can impact your package such as pressure, impacts, or shaking in the transport vehicle or due to weather). Proper packaging will protect your shipment and make sure it reaches us undamaged and in good time.

The collection takes place in Germany by DHL or a forwarding agency.

Your statutory right of withdrawal remains unaffected.
The procedure would be as follows:
  1. You order the product and pay.
  2. If you are not satisfied, you can have the system picked up by DHL free of charge. Or you can use the Online returns portal.
  3. In the case of freight forwarding delivery, the freight forwarder also picks up again. We will arrange a free pickup for you for a collection day of your choice (Mon-Fri, 10am-4pm).
  4. Abroad UPS will pick up the goods from you. Please contact us for this purpose.
  5. If you return the goods within the first two weeks after purchase, we will - once the goods are back with us - completely refund the purchase price and the incurred shipping costs of your order.
  6. Within the next six weeks of trial listening, we will only cover the return shipping costs and refund the original purchase price, excluding shipping costs, when the goods are returned to us.
I would like to cancel a purchase

There are three possibilities here:
1. The goods have not been shipped yet (you have not received a shipment notification).

Please contact us preferably by phone. We will be happy to check whether the purchase can still be cancelled. If this is no longer possible, please refuse to accept the delivery.

After this receipt check, we will ship a new device within 1-2 days, if it is in stock. From shipment, you will also receive a confirmation by mail.

Where can I find the serial number for Teufel products?

Warranty: Purchase/gift of a Teufel product from a private person

You have purchased a Teufel product from a private person (e.g. eBay) or received it as a gift? Then you need the original invoice for a warranty claim (alternatively, you can use the delivery bill as proof of warranty).
The warranty does not apply to Teufel brand products that were not purchased directly from Lautsprecher Teufel GmbH (Teufel Webshop, Amazon-Teufel Marketplace Shop, eBay-Teufel is a seller, Otto - Teufel is a seller) ) by the first purchaser.
You will receive the original invoice from the seller/original purchaser - if required, we will also be happy to send him a copy of the invoice.
If there is no more invoice or the warranty has expired, we offer you the repair against the cost estimate. Please contact our customer service for this.
