TIPS AND GUIDES

How and where to claim a defective IQOS — even a broken blade is recognized as a defect eligible for an immediate unit-for-unit replacement.

The IQOS product comes with a two-year warranty as standard. The manufacturer handles complaints exemplarily, rarely scrutinizes defects, and replaces faulty units on the spot. 

How and where to claim a defective IQOS — even a broken blade is recognized as a defect eligible for an immediate unit-for-unit replacement.

Filing a complaint for a faulty IQOS is hassle-free; the manufacturer is aware of our dependence on the device and therefore replaces the defective unit on the spot for all faults. It should be noted that mechanical damage caused by the customer is not covered by the warranty, and replacement is only done out of the manufacturer's goodwill under the IQOS Care Plus program, so be prepared for instructions on how to protect the blade next time.

Filing an IQOS complaint 

IQOS complaints can be made at brand stores, pop-up stands, and after obtaining a complaint code by phone from the Customer Care Center, also at partner retail outlets such as Geco, Valmont, or DonPealo. IQOS is exchanged on the spot, unit for unit, and sellers are not required to assess the defect.
