Under the Consumer Rights Act of 2015 you have an early right to reject goods that are unsatisfactory quality, unfit for purpose or not as described, and get a full refund.
But this right is limited to 30 days from the date you took ownership of the goods (this could be the date of purchase or the date the goods were delivered to you – whichever is later).
After the initial 30 days, you can’t demand a full refund in the first instance, but you still have the right to a repair or replacement.
Refunds (if applicable)
Once your returned item is received and inspected, we will send you an email to notify you that we have received your returned item. We will also notify you of the approval or rejection of your refund.
If you are approved, then your refund will be processed, and a credit will automatically be applied to your credit card or original method of payment, within 14 calendar days. If you paid for standard delivery of the goods, the cost of standard delivery will also be refunded.
There are certain situations where only partial refunds are granted (if applicable):
- Books or other paper products with obvious signs of use;
- Any item not in its original condition, which is damaged or missing parts for reasons not due to our error; and
- Any item that is returned more than 30 days after delivery.
Late or missing refunds (if applicable)
If you haven’t received a refund yet, first check your bank account again.
Then contact your credit card company, it may take some time before your refund is officially posted.
Next contact your bank. There is often some processing time before a refund is posted.
If you’ve done all of this and you still have not received your refund yet, please contact us.
Sale items
We do not offer refunds for sale items, unless they are faulty.
Exchange (if applicable)
We only replace items if they are defective or damaged. If you need to exchange an item for the same item, please send us an email at info@electricbikesscotland.co.uk and post your item to: Electric Bikes Scotland, Unit 2, City Quay, Camperdown Street, Dundee DD1 3JA.
Gifts
If the item was marked as a gift when purchased and shipped directly to you, you’ll receive a gift credit for the value of your return. Once the returned item is received, a gift certificate will be mailed to you.
If the item wasn’t marked as a gift when purchased, or the gift giver had the order shipped to themselves to give to you later, we will send a refund to the gift giver and they will find out about your return.
Shipping
To return your product, please mail your product to: Electric Bikes Scotland, Unit 2, City Quay, Camperdown Street, Dundee DD1 3JA with your details and reason for returning.
You will be responsible for paying for your own shipping costs for returning your item, unless the item is faulty. Shipping costs are non-refundable. If you receive a refund, the cost of return shipping will be deducted from your refund. Depending on where you live, the time it may take for your exchanged product to reach you, may vary. If you are shipping an item over £50, you should consider using a trackable shipping service or purchasing shipping insurance as we cannot guarantee that we will receive your returned item.
Right to cancel
In addition to our Returns Policy, under the Consumer Contracts Regulations of 2014, you have the right to cancel your order up to 14 days from the day you receive your goods if you are an online, mail or telephone order customer. You then have a further 14 days from the date you notify the retailer of your cancellation to return the goods. The refund will include any standard delivery charges paid. You will be responsible for the cost of returning a cancelled order to us.
We will refund to you the price paid for the items and (unless you did not pay for delivery) the delivery charges that you paid up to a maximum amount of the cost of our standard delivery option. You will be refunded to your original method of payment within 14 calendar days of our receipt of the cancelled items or, if earlier, within 14 days from the day we receive proof of return from you. If we do not receive the cancelled items back, we may arrange to collect them from you at your cost.
To exercise your right to cancel follow the steps below:
If you do not wish to proceed with your order, you may withdraw your order at any time and for any reason prior to our despatch of the goods. Upon receiving your request, we will promptly refund any payments taken in full within 14 days.
You have the right to cancel your order at any time and for any reason within the cancellation period. The cancellation period is 14 days, starting the day after the day you take possession of your entire order. You must not delay the return of the goods and should send them back within 14 days of informing us of your decision to cancel at your own expense. We will refund the cost of your goods and the cost of basic delivery within 14 days of us receiving your returned goods or receiving proof of their return. Please note that if you expressly requested a delivery method that is more expensive than our basic cost we will only refund you the basic delivery cost. ITEMS MUST BE UNUSED AND IN THEIR ORIGINAL CONDITION AND PACKAGING OR NO REFUND WILL BE GIVEN.
We cannot accept cancellations where you:
- unseal goods that are not suitable for return if they are unsealed, due to health protection or hygiene reasons
- unseal audio, video recordings or computer software that were sealed at the time of delivery
- combine goods with other goods after delivery so that they become inseparable
