Coverage & Scope

Filing a complaint
Silas J Media believes that every project starts with a finished project in mind.
Therefore, all possible attempts of amicably working out a mutually acceptable
solution should be a priority in case of an unsatisfactory service. Refund is a
last resort that may be taken when things are absolutely not working out.
Ultimately, our goal is to a reach a mutually satisfactory solution. If you are
unsatisfied for any reason that has caused you to think about filing a refund claim,
please take a few minutes to write to us to initiate a dialog before requesting
a refund.
Refund claims should only be filed if we are unable to come to a mutually satisfactory
solution.

Silas J Media takes every project very seriously and ensures that the same is
handled in a professional manner and the client gets the result as per the terms
