Returns & Refund Policy

Returns for perishable items

Unless there's something wrong with the item, unfortunately, we can't offer a refund for any perishable items in case you change your mind about them after dispatching these items. Our returns and refunds policy are following statutory rights under the Consumer Contracts Regulations. Regardless of the reason you use for requesting a refund, we always take your feedback about any product issues seriously and we use this information to continually improve our services.

We’re always looking for ways to improve our service, so your feedback is important to us. To give feedback about damaged items, please follow the process below.

You can request a refund quickly and easily if you discover that there’s a product that

  • It doesn’t meet our guarantees of good quality 

  • You discover that there's something wrong with the product, such as a fault, damage or it's not as described, or if a wrong item was delivered

Thank you for your honesty. We ensure all orders are checked to reach our customers in the best possible condition. If any of the items or substitutes are out of stock or undeliverable, we will process the refund of the item and notify you. However, if you believe we have done something wrong and would like to request a refund, you can log into your account, under my orders tab, where you can request a refund with the proof of non-receipt notification from the delivery driver. under the Return and Refund section of the My orders tab, customers will be required to upload a maximum of 3 photos of the defective or damaged items and select the reason why they would like to return the item/s from the drop-down list. Once we have received your request for a refund, we will consider it and get back to you to let you know if your request for a refund has been accepted or rejected. In most cases,  halalo.co.uk  will offer an exchange for the damaged item/s or can issue a gift card for the same value as the defected or damaged items. Customers will be able to monitor the progress of their refund requests via their message center. 

  • Please note that customers will be responsible for returning their unwanted or damaged items to the shops they bought the items from. 
  • Please ensure you take the correct and complete item when making a return to the shop or seller you bought your item/s from. The correct item must be returned to your local seller in order to receive a replacement or a refund of your money in a Halalo Gift Card.
