7. YOUR CONSUMER RIGHT OF RETURN AND REFUND

7.1. You have a legal right to cancel a Contract under the Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013 during the period set out below in clause 7.3. This means that during the relevant period, if you change your mind or decide for any other reason that you do not want to receive or keep a Product, you can notify us of your decision to cancel the Contract and receive a refund. Advice about your legal right to cancel the Contract is available from your local Citizens' Advice Bureau or Trading Standards office.

7.2. However, this cancellation right does not apply in the case of any Products that are made to your specification or are clearly personalised.

7.3. Your legal right to cancel a Contract starts from the date of the dispatch email, which is the date on which we e-mail you to confirm our acceptance of your order and when the Contract between us is formed. Your deadline for cancelling the Contract then depends on what you have ordered and how it is delivered, as set out in the table below:


Your contract End of the cancellation period
Your Contract is for a single Product, which is delivered on one day.

The end date is the end of 14 days after the day on which you receive the Product.

Example: if we provide you with a dispatch email on 1 January and you receive the Product on 10 January, you may cancel at any time between 1 January and the end of the day on 24 January.

Your Contract is for either of the following:

  • one Product which is delivered in instalments on separate days.
  • multiple Products which are delivered on separate days.

The end date is 14 days after the day on which you receive the last instalment of the Product or the last of the separate Products ordered.

Example: if we provide you with a dispatch email on 1 January and you receive the first instalment of your Product or the first of your separate Products on 10 January and the last instalment or last separate Product on 15 January, you may cancel in respect of all instalments and any or all of the separate Products at any time between 1 January and the end of the day on 29 January.


7.4. To cancel a Contract, you just need to let us know that you have decided to cancel. The easiest way to cancel a Contract is to call us on 01425 614082. However, you can also e-mail us at info@stephanshoes.co.uk or write to us by post at 83 Station Road, New Milton, Hampshire, BH25 6JD. If you are e-mailing us or writing to us, please include details of your order to help us identify it. If you send us your cancellation notice by e-mail or by post, then your cancellation is effective from the date you send us the e-mail or post the letter to us.

7.5. If you cancel your Contract we will:

7.5.1. refund you the price you paid for the Products. However, please note we are permitted by law to reduce your refund to reflect any reduction in the value of the goods, if this has been caused by your handling them in a way which would not be permitted in a shop.

7.5.2. refund any delivery costs you have paid, if any, although, as permitted by law, the maximum refund will be the cost of delivery by the least expensive delivery method we offer, provided that this is a common and generally acceptable method.

7.5.3. make any refunds due to you as soon as possible and in any event within the deadlines indicated below:

7.5.3.1. in the event that you have received the Product from us, the deadline for us making a refund to you will be 14 days after the day on which we receive the Product back from you or, if earlier, the day on which you provide us with evidence that you have sent the Product back to us.

7.5.3.2. in the event that you have not received the Product from us, the deadline for us making a refund to you will be 14 days after you inform us of your decision to cancel the Contract.

7.6. If you have returned the Products to us because they are faulty or mis-described, we will refund the price of the Products in full, together with any applicable delivery charges, and any reasonable costs you incur in returning the item to us.

7.7. We will refund you by the payment method you originally used to pay. If you used vouchers to pay for the Product, we may refund you in vouchers.

7.8. If a Product has been delivered to you before you decide to cancel your Contract:

7.8.1. then you must return it to us without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days after the day on which you let us know that you wish to cancel the Contract;

7.8.2. unless the Product is faulty or not as described, you will be responsible for the cost of returning the Products to us.

7.9. Because you are a consumer, we are under a legal duty to supply Products that are in conformity with this Contract. As a consumer, you have legal rights in relation to Products that are faulty or not as described. These legal rights are not affected by your right of return and refund in this clause 7 or anything else in these Terms.


8. DELIVERY

8.1. We will contact you with an estimated delivery date, which will be within 30 days after the date of the order confirmation, in accordance with applicable law. Please note that we aim to deliver all Products in accordance with the delivery times stated on our delivery and returns page, depending on the delivery option chosen. Occasionally our delivery to you may be affected by an Event Outside Our Control. See clause 13 for our responsibilities when this happens.

8.2. For first time orders, delivery will only be made to the cardholder’s registered address or the cardholder’s place of work, which may need to be verified before dispatch.

8.5.2. delivery within the delivery deadline was essential, taking into account all the relevant circumstances; or

8.5.3. you told us before we accepted your order that delivery within the delivery deadline was essential.

8.6. If you do not wish to cancel your order straight away, or do not have the right to do so under clause 8.5, you can give us a new deadline for delivery, which must be reasonable, and you can cancel your order if we do not meet the new deadline.

8.7. If you do choose to cancel your order for late delivery under clause 8.5 or clause 8.6, you can do so for just some of the Products or all of them, unless splitting them up would significantly reduce their value.
