Proper operation of the Audio Guestbook phone includes picking up the handset, listening to the voicemail recording, waiting for the beep, speaking clearly into the phone, and then hanging up the phone to save the message.  We make no guarantees for any items outside of the aforementioned normal operations of the Audio Guestbook, and under no circumstances will be responsible for any of the following: Unsaved or unrecorded messages due to guests not properly hanging up the phone; Poor placement of phone in a low-trafficked area resulting in only a few guest messages; Any specific number of final recorded messages; Loud background noise from placement of the phone near speakers or in a loud environment; A non-functioning phone or lost files where the startup & shutdown instructions (included with rental) were not properly followed; Non-use of the phone by choice or otherwise; or any other scenarios that would be outside of us fulfilling this service rental agreement of sending a working Audio Guestbook phone.

If Client wishes to dispute a late return fee, Client must provide timestamped proof of return shipping validation, through a receipt provided by shipping carrier at time of drop-off/pick-up.

If Client fails to fulfill any of these requirements, Client will be fully liable for any missing or damaged equipment/supplies, late return fees, and any other costs Provider may incur associated with the Client failure to follow these directions.
