3.1.1 bespoke or customised goods;

3.1.2 goods that are liable to deteriorate or expire rapidly;

Cancellation form

To Wormers-Direct, 

Unit 18 Ousegill Business Park, Carrside Road, Great Ouseburn, YO26 9AE

(email: wormers-direct@outlook.com):

I/We [*] hereby give notice that I/We [*] cancel my/our [*] contract of sale of the following goods [*]/the supply of the following service [*],

Ordered on [*]/received on [*],

Name of consumer(s),

Address of consumer(s),

Signature of consumer(s) (only if this form is notified on paper),

Date

[*] Delete as appropriate

3.4 To meet the cancellation deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right to cancel before the cancellation period has expired. Please note that the expiry of the cancellation period does not affect your rights to return goods to us if they are faulty (see clause 8).

4 Effects of your cancellation

4.1 If you cancel this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).

4.2 We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied. We will only do this if the loss in value is the result of handling of the goods where that handing was (in our reasonable opinion) more than was necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods. If we refund you the price paid before we are able to inspect the goods, and later discover you have handled them unnecessarily in a way that has devalued the goods, you must pay us an appropriate amount.

4.3 We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than:

4.3.1 14 days after the day we received back from you any goods supplied; or

4.3.2 (if earlier) 14 days after the day you provide evidence that you have returned the goods; or

4.3.3 if there were no goods supplied, 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to cancel this contract.

4.4 We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of the reimbursement.

4.5 If you have received goods:

4.5.1 you shall send back the goods to our registered office address, or hand them over to us, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your cancellation from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired.

4.5.2 you will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods.

4.5.3 you are liable for any reduction in the value of the goods due to unnecessary handling (see clause 4.2).

5 Delivery

5.1 The costs of delivery to mainland UK addresses will be as displayed to you on our website before you place your order. We do not usually make deliveries to any addresses outside of mainland UK, but please contact us to discuss a request for non-UK mainland delivery by using the contact details above.

5.2 The estimated date and time window for delivery of the goods is set out in the Confirmation Email (see clause 2.2.3).

5.3 If something happens which:

5.3.1 is outside of our control; and

we will let you have a revised estimated date for delivery of the goods.

5.4 Delivery of the goods will take place when we deliver them to the address that you gave to us.

5.5 Unless you and we agree otherwise, if we cannot deliver your goods within 30 days, we will:

5.5.1 let you know;

5.5.2 cancel your order; and

5.5.3 give you a refund.

5.6 If no one is available at your address to take delivery of the goods, we will contact you via the contact details you have submitted or leave you a note informing you of how to rearrange delivery. If, after a failed delivery to you, you do not re-arrange delivery we will contact you for further instructions and may charge you for storage costs and any further delivery costs. If, despite our reasonable efforts, we are unable to contact you or re-arrange delivery or collection we may cancel the contract. In this event, we will refund any money you have paid in advance for goods we have not delivered but we may deduct or charge you reasonable compensation for the net costs we will incur as a result of your breaking the contract (such as storage and further delivery costs).

5.7 You are responsible for the goods when delivery has taken place. In other words, the risk in the goods passes to you when you take possession of the goods.

5.8 We may deliver your goods in instalments. If your goods may be delivered in this way, we will contact you prior to delivery to advise of this.

6 Payment

6.1 We accept payment by the following credit cards, debit cards and payment service providers: Visa, Mastercard and Stripe. We do not accept cash.

6.2 We will do all that we reasonably can to ensure that all of the information you give us when paying for the goods is secure by using an encrypted secure payment mechanism. However, in the absence of negligence on our part we will not be legally responsible to you for any loss that you may suffer if a third party gains unauthorised access to any information that you give us.

6.3 Your credit card or debit card or account will be charged when the goods are ordered. If payment is not provided in full, your goods will not be despatched and you will be informed.

6.4 All payments by credit card or debit card or payment service provider need to be authorised by the relevant card issuer or payment service provider.

7.6.1 we will let you know if we intend to do this but this may not always be possible; and
