MY ORDER HAS NOT ARRIVED - WHAT SHOULD I DO?
You will have received a dispatch email from us detailing how and when your order was sent. Your order will have been dispatched either by Royal Mail or by Business Post. Please take the following action depending on how your order was dispatched:

Business Post
If your order was dispatched by Business Post, please enter the consignment number from your email on the following page: http://www.business-post.com/scripts/wsisa.dll/ws_quickpod.html

This should give you details of where your order is. Normally your order will be delivered the next working day after dispatch, but if there are any problems, please call Business Post on 08541 552 552, quoting your consignment number and they will be able to help you further.

Royal Mail
Orders sent by Royal Mail are normally delivered within 1-5 days, however this isn't guaranteed and you should allow up to 14 working days for delivery. If your order still hasn't been received after 14 working days, we find that in 95% of cases, Royal Mail have tried to deliver and returned the parcel to their local depot. Please call your local Royal Mail depot to see if your parcel is being held there. If your parcel is not being held by Royal Mail, obtain the name of the person you spoke to at the depot and complete a missing delivery form so we can submit a claim and re-send your order.
