We can only amend your postal choice if the order hasn't already been dispatched to you, please do note that most orders are dispatched on the day they are received.
Safe Delivery
We do everything possible to ensure that your parcel arrives to you on time and in good condition, although once it has been posted out it then becomes the responsibility of Royal Mail. We send out all items Business Post. Once they leave our premises it becomes Royal Mails responsibility to ensure it reaches you safely.
Please note that we will flat pack the parcel if possible so that it gets through your letterbox. This may mean we undo the boxes of tablets to ensure they are as flat as possible. If the item is bulky and it doesn't go through the letter box if you are not in to accept it this may mean it goes to the sorting office for you to collect.
* Lost or Damaged Parcels
We send out all parcels Business Post, this means that we have proof it was received by Royal Mail, we cannot consider any parcel lost for at least 20 working days from the day of dispatch, this applies for all parcels including medication orders, except those that are sent Special Delivery. Please consider Special Delivery if you are having urgent medications sent as lost parcels will not be considered lost until the 20 days have passed see notes below
Please note that any lost or damaged parcel must be reported to us within 30 days of the dispatch date for us to claim which will only be done after the 20 working days from dispatch have passed*.
* Procedure for Lost Parcels:
Although most 1st class parcels arrive next day please do allow 1-5 working days for your parcel to arrive. After at least 5 working days you need to first contact your local sorting office. On most occasions this is where the parcel is as it was too big to get through the letterbox. From dispatch (an email is sent to you to tell you the parcel is on its way) please do allow the 5 days before you contact the sorting office to give it chance to get to you first.
Royal Mail will not consider a parcel lost until 20 working days has passed so please allow this time from the date of dispatch of order before contacting us as we can take NO action until 20 working days has passed. This means your parcel will not be re-sent or you will not be issued a refund until: the 20 working days have passed and we have processed the claim which can take a further 5 working days. However, should the parcel arrive back to us before this date we will contact you straight away to ask if you want it re-sending or refunding.
IMPORTANT:
We strongly recommend prescription drugs or medication needed urgently that you select Special Delivery to ensure it gets to you in time. Any lost orders will not be dealt with until 20 working days have passed if Special Delivery has not been selected.
By placing an order with us we understand you accept the rules and regulations regarding the delivery of your parcel and have understood the above terms and conditions.
