Returns & Order Cancellation 

Damage & Loss In Transit 

Occasionally, unfortunately, things do get lost or damaged in transit. If this happens with your shipment, please advise us and we will supply replacement goods as quickly as we can. However, since we never knowingly ship damaged goods we need your help to try to recover our costs from the carrier wherever possible. If you do receive damaged goods, please retain all relevant documentation so that an insurance claim can be made against the carrier's insurers. If you receive a battered parcel, note the fact on the delivery note, even before you open the package to examine the contents. If you are unable to open the damaged package in the presence of the carrier, make sure that you sign for it as 'Damaged package; goods not yet inspected' or similar to warn the carrier that a claim may be forthcoming. Whatever the circumstances, please contact us by email with as much detail of the damage or loss as you can provide, as soon after delivery as possible, so that we can arrange replacement goods and start following up the carriers. Please do NOT return damaged goods, unless and until requested to do so as this may incur additional costs unnecessarily.

Refunds and Exchanges

We try at all times to please our customers. If you are not happy with a product, notify us within 10 working days and return the goods to 

Attn: Web Returns, FAO Bridget Chetwynd, Bee & Tea, Studio 31, Craft Central, 33 - 35 St John's Square, London EC1M 4DS. 

Items will be refunded or exchanged provided that you do not use the items, the items are in the same condition as when they arrived, and you take reasonable care to ensure the items are received by us and not damaged in transit. Post and Package costs are not refundable. We are not responsible for return postage or packages that do not reach us. Please ask at the Post office for a free certificate of postage. However in the event of the goods being faulty we will cover all costs for postage and either refund or exchange of goods. Please check your order carefully before sending.

Returns Policy 

Your rights to return goods are protected under the EU Distance Selling Directive which can be found at: http://www.hmso.gov.uk/si/si2000/20002334.htm

Cancellation of Orders 

Except at the busiest time of the year, e.g. Christmas, orders are normally despatched to you on the next working day of order receipt by us. If you wish to cancel BEFORE we have sent goods, you must do so by email. If your order has not been sent, it will be cancelled and there will be no charge whatsoever. 

If you change your mind and cancel AFTER your order has been sent to you or after receiving the goods you must follow the standard returns process 

You will also find details about returning items under the EU Distance Selling Directive.

All goods returned must be unused, unopened and in the same condition as they were originally despatched from Bee & Tea.co.uk. We will not accept for exchange or refund any item which has been used, or is not in the exact condition in which it was despatched by us, (unless the item is faulty).

You must contact us by email to confirm which items are being returned. You will be requested to return the goods by Royal Mail 2nd class delivery (we recommend you get Proof of Posting) and will be required to pay the cost of returning the goods. There will be no refund on the cost of returning the goods, (unless the item is faulty). Please return them to the address provided, along with a note of your details and the reason for return. Refunds will be made to the original charged account within 14 days of receipt of the returned goods.
