Our returns policy is in accordance with your statutory rights under the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013.
CANCELLING YOUR ORDER
Due to the perishable nature of our goods, you cannot cancel your order once it has been dispatched.
If you wish to cancel your order before it is dispatched please contact us using the details provided on the contact us page.
When contacting us please ensure you provide your order number, full address including postcode and email address.
CHANGE OF MIND & DAMAGED ITEMS
Due to the nature of our business and the products we sell, coffee is considered a perishable good.
Perishable goods are exempt from refunds so unfortunately, we can not offer a refund if you change your mind after delivery.
If you receive your item in a damaged condition and the product(s) are unusable a refund or replacement will be issued.
Cosmetic damage to the packaging will not be considered as it does not affect the usage of the product.
If you wish to make a refund claim, you must notify us no later than 7 days after you have received the goods.
To be eligible for a refund, you must return the item(s) and they must be unused and in the same condition that you received it. It must also be in the original packaging. If 7 days have gone by since you have received your delivery, unfortunately, we can’t offer you a refund.
We do not accept responsibility for the long-term storage of any perishable items. It is your responsibility to store products as per packet instructions.
We will not offer any refunds or replacements for the following items:
- We will not offer any refunds or replacements relating to broken biscuits. This is due to their delicate nature and they may break during transit.
- We will not offer any refunds or replacements relating to damaged packaging or crushed product boxes. If the packaging of your item is damaged then we consider this protecting the physical product inside.
- We will not offer any refunds or replacements relating to any item that is compressed due to transportation. Any item received compressed has done its job in protecting the contents inside. All coffee bags are fitted with a one-way value and compressing the bag means it has done its job. It's designed to let the air out, not in.
