If we cannot accept your order. If we are unable to accept your order, we will inform you of this and will not charge you for the product.

Once Royal Mail has your order, your order will be fulfilled and full tracking information will be provided with your dispatch email. In any event, delivery will take place no more than 30 calendar days after the day on which a contract is entered into. 

Whilst we make every effort to deliver goods on the day we specify, we cannot guarantee delivery on that day or accept liability for deliveries made outside this timescale. We would advise that if you require your order by a certain date to select the next day delivery service.

If you are concerned about the whereabouts of your parcel, please contact us at customercare@oat-bear.com within 28 days of receiving your dispatch email.

Beyond this point, couriers will be unable to refund or search for your parcel, so we will be unable to assist you further.

INTERNATIONAL DELIVERY

In most cases, any customs or import duties are charged once the parcel reaches its destination country.

You may be charged for handling fees and taxes as your order passes through customs. Any charges on a parcel must be paid by the person receiving the parcel.

We have no control over these charges and we can't tell you what the cost would be, as customs policies and import duties vary widely from country to country.

It might be a good idea to contact your local customs office for current charges before you order, so you are not surprised by charges you were not expecting.

If the charges are refused and your order is returned back to us, a return fee for the cost of shipping will be deducted from your return.

At Berry & Blossoms, we check every product to ensure the highest standards are met prior to dispatch. Should you receive an item that you are not satisfied with please contact us within 7 days of receiving your order via our email address; customercare@oat-bear.com.

        Your legal right to cancel

        For most products bought online, you have a legal right to change your mind within 14 days and receive a refund. These rights, under the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013, are explained in more detail below:

        You have 14 days after the day you receive the products to change your mind. 

        To meet the cancellation deadline, you must notify us by post or email that you wish to exercise your right to cancel before the cancellation period has expired. Where applicable, please keep a copy of your cancellation notification for your own records.

        If the products have already been dispatched to you or you have already received them, you must return them to us without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your cancellation of your order to us. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the products to us.

        If you are exercising your right to change your mind and cancel the contract, you will receive a full refund of the price you paid for the products and any applicable delivery charges to the credit or debit card, or other payment method you used to pay. We will process the refund without delay and, in any event, not later than (a) 14 days after the day we receive back from you any products supplied; or (b) if there were no products supplied, 14 days after the day on which we receive your cancellation notification. We may withhold the refund until we have received the products back.

        If you are exercising your right to change your mind:

        • We may reduce your refund of the price (excluding delivery costs) to reflect any reduction in the value of the goods, if this has been caused by your handling them in a way which would not be permitted in a shop. If we refund you the price paid before we are able to inspect the goods and later discover you have handled them in an unacceptable way, you must pay us the appropriate amount.

        • The maximum refund for delivery costs will be the costs of delivery by the least expensive delivery method we offer. For example, if we offer delivery of a product within three to five days at one cost, but you choose to have the product delivered within 24 hours at a higher cost, then we will only refund what you would have paid for the cheaper delivery option.

        • If the products you return have been gift-wrapped using our gift service, we will not provide a refund for the price you have paid for the gift service.

        When you don't have the right to change your mind.

        You do not have a right to change your mind in respect of:

        • Products sealed for health protection or hygiene purposes, once these have been unsealed after you receive them
