Purchasing products

Orders

We will take all reasonable care, in so far as it is in our power to do so, to keep the details of your order and payment secure, but in the absence of negligence on our part we cannot be held liable for any loss you may suffer if a third party procures unauthorised access to any data you provide when accessing or ordering from the website.

Contract creation and electronic contracting

The technical steps required to create the contract between you and us are as follows:

  • You place the order for your products on the website by pressing the confirm order button at the end of the checkout process. You will be guided through the process of placing an order by a series of simple instructions on the website.
  • We will send to you an order acknowledgement email detailing the products you have ordered. This is not an order confirmation or order acceptance from plushpaws.co.uk.
  • As your product is shipped from our warehouse we will send you a despatch confirmation email.
  • Order acceptance and the completion of the contract between you and us will take place on the despatch to you of the products ordered unless we have notified you that we do not accept your order, or you have cancelled it in accordance with the instructions in change or cancel an order.

Non-acceptance of an order may be a result of one of the following:

  • The product you ordered being unavailable from stock
  • Our inability to obtain authorisation for your payment
  • The identification of a pricing or product description error
  • You not meeting the eligibility to order criteria set out in the main Terms & Conditions

The contract will be concluded in English.

The details of your specific contract will not be filed by plushpaws.co.uk. If you do require any information regarding orders you have placed with plushpaws.co.uk please contact us.

Contract cancellation under the Distance Selling Regulations

Please note that you are entitled to cancel this contract if you so wish provided that you exercise your right and notify us no longer than 14 days after the day on which you receive the products.

If you wish to exercise your right to cancel this contract after your order has already been despatched, we will refund the original purchase price and delivery charge (saver), provided that you have notified us in writing no longer than 14 days after the day on which you receive the products, and that you have taken reasonable care of the products and not used them. Please follow the procedure set out in our returns procedure.

Please note that your right to return products does NOT apply to products which fall into the following categories unless they are faulty or not as described:

  • Personalised goods

When an order is despatched to an incomplete, undeliverable or incorrect address that has been supplied as such, it is not possible for the Royal Mail to redirect mail to another address. Should the order be returned to ourselves a full refund will be made less all postage charges incurred. When the order is delivered to the incorrect address as provided, we are unable to retrieve the order on your behalf.


Payment options

We offer various ways for you to pay for your order, including: Visa; Visa Debit; Visa Electron; MasterCard; Maestro; PayPal; Plushpaws gift vouchers; and plushpaws.co.uk money-off coupons. You may use a combination of gift vouchers and any payment card we accept to pay for your order.

These services enhance your existing card account against unauthorised use when you shop with us.

Once you've registered and created your own private password with your card issuer, you'll be prompted automatically at checkout to provide this password each time you make a purchase.
