SHIPPING & REFUNDS
SHIPPING POLICY
​
-
We use Royal Mail for UK deliveries.
-
For Standard delivery £3.95 our aim is to prepare your order and despatch it within 2 working days [Monday to Friday excl. bank holidays], which means that you receive your order within 4 to 7 working days from the date it was despatched. This may not always be possible depending on the volume of orders on our system, so if your order has not been received within 10 working days, please contact us directly.
-
We will use all reasonable endeavours to ensure these times are met, but cannot be held responsible for despatched parcels delayed by third parties, for example due to poor weather conditions.
-
Large volume orders may be subject to additional shipping charges. This will be discussed with you prior to your order being dispatched.
REFUND POLICY
Cancelling and Returning Goods if You Change Your Mind (this clause does not apply to business purchasers/uses)
-
If you are a consumer in the European Union, you have a legal right to a “cooling off” period within which you can cancel the Contract for any reason. This period begins once your order is complete and we have sent you your Dispatch Confirmation, i.e. when the Contract between you and Us is formed.
-
If the Goods are being delivered to you in a single instalment (whether single or multiple items), the cooling off period ends 14 calendar days after the day on which you receive the Goods.
-
If your order is for the regular delivery of Goods over a defined period, the cooling off period ends 14 calendar days after the day on which you receive the first delivery of Goods.
-
If you wish to exercise your right to cancel under this Clause 12, you must inform Us of your decision within the cooling off period. You may do so in any way you wish, using the contact details below. Cancellation by email or by post is effective from the date on which you send Us your message. Please note that the cooling off period lasts for whole calendar days. If, for example, you send Us an email or letter by 23:59 on the final day of the cooling off period, your cancellation will be valid and accepted. If you would prefer to contact us directly to cancel, please use the following details:
-
Email: curiouscocoaco@gmail.com
-
We may ask you why you have chosen to cancel and may use any answers you provide to improve Our Goods and services, however please note that you are under no obligation to provide any details if you do not wish to.
-
Please note that you may lose your legal right to cancel under this Clause 12 if you have unsealed the Goods after receiving them.
-
Please ensure that you return Goods to Us no more than 14 calendar days after the day on which you have informed Us that you wish to cancel under this Clause 12.
