- Can I cancel or amend an order once I’ve placed it?
Your Right To Cancel
You have a right to cancel your order and if you choose to do so you will receive full refund. However you should note that in order for us to deliver orders to customers quickly and efficiently orders are processed and dispatched almost immediately upon order acknowledgement. This means in practice that we will be unable to impact delivery and you will receive the goods you ordered.
Therefore where goods have already been dispatched before cancellation, please return them to us in their original condition and packaging. Returns to Peacocks should be returned to Peacocks Distribution Centre, Heol Crochendy, Parc Nantgarw. CF15 7QT. Details and instructions are found on the reverse of the delivery note you receive in your order. Returned or cancelled goods need to be returned to us within 28 days of dispatch. Your account will be automatically credited the value of your order once we have received the items.
Amending an Order
For similar reasons of immediate processing and dispatch we are unable to amend orders once they are placed via our website. You must therefore check your order contains all the products you want prior to payment and confirmation as we will be unable to change the details thereafter. Similarly, you must also check your billing and delivery addresses since we will be unable to amend these after your order has been acknowledged. If you decide you don’t require an item after delivery you can always return it to us using the returns label for a full refund of your purchase price. We will only credit your account once we receive goods back to our processing centre.
- What types of payment can I use online?
We accept most major cards including Visa, MasterCard, Visa Debit & American Express. Customers can also use PayPal or Amazon Payments and various gift cards including Peacocks Gift cards/evouchers to pay for orders. This is available as an option during checkout.
