Returns Policy
Non-Faulty Returns and Cancellations
Please ensure that you are ordering precisely what you require to avoid any unnecessary expense later. If the goods ordered are not what you receive please advise us by email on the day of delivery where possible.
Under Distance Selling Regulations you have a right to cancel your purchase. However, to exercise this right you must notify us in writing, (email or letter) within 14 days from the day after your goods are delivered to your shipping address.
As stated above notification of cancellation must be in writing, a telephone call is not a valid cancellation.
Our email address for cancellations and returns is info@firstchoicelighting.co.uk
No right of cancellation, refund or return exists under the Distance Selling Regulations once you have used your product, unless the product is defective and we have the chance to supply a replacement.
Goods that are sealed or shrink-wrapped and that have been removed can only be returned if they are defective and previously agreed by email.
First Choice Lighting will confirm receipt of the cancellation or return notification and in the event of a return, will issue you with a returns number. We do not accept returns unless we have first been notified and have issued a returns number. This should be included with your return on a separate piece of paper including your order number and name. This should not be written on any of the original packaging as we are unable to accept returns where packaging is marked in any way.
Once we have confirmed your return, you have 14 days to return the item to us at the address supplied. You are responsible for paying any postage or shipping costs incurred when returning the product and we recommend that all returns be sent by a means that a record of the return is available.
