FAQs
Orders & Delivery
Can I place an order over the telephone?
Yes, you can place an order over the telephone. Please contact our customer service team using our free number 0330 123 0001 and select option 1.
Do I need to register an account or can I check out as a guest?
You don’t need to register an account; you can check out as a guest. However, we will need to verify your email address using a one-time code before you can place an order.
How can I change or cancel delivery options after placing an order?
To manage your orders (e.g. amend or cancel), please call us on 0330 123 0001 and select option 2. Please note that, for security reasons, we cannot change the delivery address once an order has been placed. If you cancel the order after it has been dispatched, delivery charges will still apply.
Why might my order be cancelled or not submit properly?
If your order isn’t submitting properly, it could be due to a browser issue. Try clearing your browser’s cache or using another device to rule out any issues with your current device. There may also be a temporary issue with our website, so we recommend trying again in a few minutes. If your order was placed but later cancelled, it might be because we are unable to fulfil it. In such cases, a member of our team will contact you via email or phone call to explain the situation.
How do I know if my order has been placed, and how can I track it?
After completing the checkout process, you will see a confirmation page with your order number and other details. You will also receive a confirmation email (always check your Junk/Spam folder). To track your order, you can use this initial email to check the progress on our website. Once your order has been dispatched, you will receive tracking information. If you need assistance with tracking your order, please feel free to contact us.
When will I receive my order confirmation or VAT receipt?
You will receive your order confirmation email shortly after completing your purchase. Your VAT receipt will be sent via email once your order has been dispatched. If you need further assistance, please don’t hesitate to contact us.
Why is my order late or not delivered yet?
If your order is late or has not been delivered yet, it could be due to unforeseen delays with the courier or high demand periods. Please check the tracking information provided in your dispatch email for updates. If your order is still delayed, feel free to contact our customer service team for further assistance.
What delivery options are available and do you deliver to my area (including outside the UK)?
We offer priority delivery (1 to 2 working days) and standard delivery (3 to 5 working days). Unfortunately, we do not currently deliver outside the UK (England, Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland & Islands). However, we are happy to ship to a third-party in the UK who can forward the product abroad. Please note that all paperwork, fees, and arrangements for shipping outside the UK will be the responsibility of the buyer.
How long will delivery take, and can I schedule a specific date?
Delivery times depend on the method you selected. While we cannot guarantee a specific delivery date, we can try to accommodate requests for a particular date if needed. Please contact us, and we will do our best to assist. However, please be aware that we cannot guarantee our third party couriers will be able to carry out the request.
What couriers do you use and can I change delivery details (e.g. address, date)?
We currently work with the following couriers: Royal Mail, Yodel, DHL UK (formerly UK Mail), FedEx (formerly TNT), and Palletways (for pallet deliveries). The courier used is dependent on the delivery location and item being shipped. Please note that we cannot change the delivery address once the order has been placed. However, once your order has been dispatched, you may be able to contact some of the carriers directly to request delivery to a neighbour, schedule a delivery date, or leave the item in a safe place (please be aware that if you choose to have your order left in a safe place, you accept full responsibility if it goes missing).
What happens if I am not home when delivery is attempted or if my delivery is late?
If you are not home when delivery is attempted, the courier will usually leave a card with instructions on how to rearrange delivery or collect your order from a local depot. In some cases, they may attempt to deliver to a neighbour. If your delivery is late, please check the tracking information provided in your dispatch email for updates. If further assistance is needed, feel free to contact our customer service team.
What is Click & Collect and how does it work (e.g. same-day availability, holding period)?
Click & Collect allows you to place an order online and pick it up from our mega store located in Nottinghamshire (NG15 7LL). Same-day availability depends on stock levels. Your order should be ready to collect within 1 hour during our opening times. Orders are typically held for 7 days, to allow you to collect at your convenience. If you need more information or assistance, please contact our customer service team.
What do I need to bring when collecting and can someone else collect on my behalf?
When collecting your order, please bring a copy of the receipt (either electronic or printed), along with a photo ID, which must be a passport or photo driving licence matching the name on the receipt. If someone else is collecting on your behalf, please let us know in advance. They will need to bring their own photo ID and a copy of the receipt.
What happens if I don’t collect my order?
If you don’t collect your order within the initial 7-day holding period, we will make multiple attempts to contact you. If we are unable to reach you, we will hold your order for an additional 7 days. After this extended period, we reserve the right to release the reserved product(s) for sale. If you require assistance or need more time to collect your order, please contact us as soon as possible.

To use a promotional code, simply enter it in the designated box at checkout and ensure it is applied before completing your purchase.

If you continue to have issues, please contact our customer service team for assistance.
Can I use multiple promo codes and do you offer discounts for specific groups (e.g., Blue Light card holders)?
We only allow one promotional code per order, and multiple promo codes cannot be combined. Yes, Blue Light card holders can enjoy up to a 10% discount, applicable in-store only. Please note that this discount is only valid for full-priced items. Unfortunately, sale items, items part of other promotions, or those with reduced prices are not eligible for this discount.
