Refund & Replacement Policy

Our guide to understanding how refunds and replacements work for devices obtained through government assistance programs.

Important Disclaimer

FreeTabletGovt.com is an informational resource. We do not directly provide, sell, ship, or service any tablets. Therefore, we do not handle refunds, exchanges, or replacements. This policy explains the process you must follow with your actual tablet provider (e.g., Q Link, Assurance Wireless).

No Refunds Policy

Since our service is 100% free, FreeTabletGovt.com does not charge any fees and therefore cannot issue refunds.

Any co-payment you made (typically $10-$50) was paid directly to your ACP/Lifeline provider. You must contact them to inquire about their specific refund policies.

Tablets provided under these programs are heavily subsidized by the government and are generally non-refundable.

Replacement Policy

Government-provided tablets are typically a one-time benefit. However, replacements for lost, stolen, or damaged devices may be available under certain conditions set by your provider.

  • Lost/Stolen: Report it to your provider immediately. Most do not offer a second free device.
  • Defective/Damaged: If within the warranty period, your provider may offer a free or low-cost repair or replacement.
