Important Additional Information
Your balloon(s) has a float time of around a week or so, so we recommend choosing a delivery date that is a couple of days earlier than the date of your event or special occasion, to allow for any unexpected delay in delivery, This allows additional time for re-delivery in the unlikely event that your delivery is delayed for unexpected reasons outside our control. During busy periods around Black Friday or Christmas we suggest choosing a preferred delivery date that is 3 working days before your order is needed.
If fulfilment of your order is dependant on delivery being made on a specific day, this should be agreed with us, in writing before you place your order regardless of the shipping method you choose.
As an example: If your balloon is needed for an event on Friday, we suggest choosing the Wednesday, as your preferred delivery date (the date you select at Checkout). All available delivery dates are shown on the calendar during checkout. If delivery has been chosen for Friday and there is a delay in delivery, you can normally expect re-delivery to be the next working day, Monday. If this is the case, you may have the option to request Saturday delivery provided you contact the courier early enough.
In all cases, please ensure that the delivery address you submit on your order is complete and accurate. We can not amend the delivery address after your order has been sent nor can we provide refunds in the event of a delayed or failed delivery due to incomplete or inaccurate delivery address.
We don't recommend sending balloons to some types of address. Any order which you choose to have delivered to either a Hotel, Hospital, Restaurant, Venue, Student Accommodation or Holiday Accommodation is done entirely at your own risk. Regardless of the delivery method you choose at Checkout, we can not accept responsibility for any delay to delivery, or loss which may occur.
There may be occasions where an order arrives earlier than expected for a number of reasons. Some orders that are scheduled for delivery on Monday may at the discretion of the courier, be delivered on the Saturday before. This is standard practice with all major couriers and we are unable to offer any refund under these circumstances. If we expect that bad weather to impact delivery of an order, we may dispatch your order earlier than planned.
Any reference to Next Day delivery refers to the next working day, Monday - Friday. Orders are dispatched Monday - Friday. We do not get collections of parcels over the weekend or on public holidays. For orders placed after 11.30am Friday, the soonest delivery date will be the following Tuesday. All available delivery dates are offered during checkout. Any order where delivery is requested the next day, that has been placed after 11.30am will be sent at the earliest opportunity which will normally be the following working day.
You can order up to 3 months in advance so please choose your preferred delivery date carefully during checkout.
In line with the Consumer Rights Act 2015 we are unable to refund any personalised product in the event that you change your mind or no longer require the product. Further information can be found on the Government website: https://www.gov.uk/accepting-returns-and-giving-refunds. Your Statutory Rights are unaffected.
