Shipping and handling
See our Delivery page for details. Please note – our shipping carriers only work Monday to Fridays. Forever Cards Ltd reserves the right to increase shipping costs for exceptional orders. You will be contacted and given the option to cancel your order if you do not wish to pay the extra shipping charge.
Should our carriers attempt to make delivery and no-one is available to receive it, they will leave a card with consignment details along with the contact details of your local depot so you can arrange re-delivery on a suitable day or collection from the depot. You will be given ample opportunity to respond to the carrier. If you do not respond to the calling card the goods will be returned back to us. There will be a return to sender charge incurred. This is currently £15 per parcel.
Delivery schedule and back orders
Upon receipt of your order we will send you a confirmation email which will confirm details and acceptance of your order with us. We aim to dispatch 98% of orders received within 72 hours, subject to the availability of stock. Any errors found on orders, for example address or payment details, may delay your order. We cannot be held responsible for delays due to inaccuracies. Please allow 2-3 working days for delivery within the UK, and 5-7 working days for overseas deliveries. We regret that we cannot guarantee delivery service or times.
If any items in your order are not in stock, we will make them for you. You will always be emailed with the option to cancel your order or have a partial delivery if you would rather not wait for the stock to become available. Out of stock items are usually available for delivery within 2 to 3 weeks of the order being placed.
