The Contract will relate only to those products whose dispatch we have confirmed in the Dispatch Confirmation. We will not be obliged to supply any other products which may have been part of your order until the dispatch of such products has been confirmed in a separate Dispatch Confirmation.

Please note, once you have placed an order with us, we are unable to amend it.

15. EVENTS OUTSIDE OUR CONTROL

We will not be liable or responsible for any failure to perform, or delay in performance of, any of our obligations under a Contract that is caused by events outside our reasonable control (“Force Majeure Event”).

A refund on an order that was partially paid by gift card and bank card will always be refunded back to the gift card. Once the original value is reinstated on the gift card, any additional funds will go to the bank account, not a cheque guarantee, credit or charge card.

Orders for Gift Cards cannot be cancelled, except in accordance with your legal rights.

Gift Cards should be treated as cash and as such we cannot replace lost, stolen or damaged Gift Cards.

We reserve the right to refuse a Gift Card which is deemed to have been tampered with, duplicated, damaged or which otherwise is suspected to be affected from fraud.

Gift Cards are digitally generated and usually emailed to the e-mail address of your choice within an hour of purchase, however, to protect against fraud, payment checks may be made which can cause a delay in the Gift Card being issued.

Gift cards can be purchased for any value between £5 and £1000 and can be redeemed across multiple purchases until the balance is used.
