9. CANCELLATION AND MONEY BACK GUARANTEE

9.1 You have a statutory right to cancel your purchase within 14 days of receiving the products (subject to the exceptions stated below). You can cancel by sending us the cancellation form provided on www.qvcuk.com; by writing to at Dept R (Cancellations), QVC, South Boundary Road, Liverpool, L70 2QA; via email (please use our online form at www.qvcuk.com); or over the phone on 0800 51 41 31. You should keep evidence of having given notice of cancellation. You must return the products to us (at your own risk and cost) within 14 days of notifying us of your cancellation in accordance with the return instructions and invoice enclosed with your order. If the products are unsuitable for return by post, you will be responsible for the cost of couriering them to us; if you contact Customer Services we will try to provide you with an estimate of the courier cost. We will refund the full purchase price together with the standard delivery charge paid within 14 days of receiving the returned products or proof of postage. If you chose to pay for express delivery, we will only refund the cost of standard delivery. You must, however, take care of the products before you return them. We may reduce the amount we refund to you if you use them, damage them or otherwise do something beyond what is reasonably necessary to examine them that reduces their resale value. You do not have the legal right to cancel the following items: (i) perishable products e.g. food or flowers; (ii) audio/video recordings, DVDs or computer software that you have removed from the sealed packaging in which they were delivered to you; (iii) products made to your own specification; (iv) periodicals or magazines; and (v) sealed goods which are not suitable for return due to health protection or hygiene reasons that you have removed from the sealed packaging.

9.2 Without prejudice to your statutory right to cancel, every product sold by QVC, unless otherwise stated , is also backed by our 30 day money-back guarantee ("30-Day Money-Back Guarantee"). We want you to be satisfied with your purchase. However, if you change your mind about a product or you would like to change the size or colour, simply return it within 30 days of receipt, in accordance with the return instructions on the invoice enclosed with your order. We also recommend that you obtain proof of posting. Where a product is too heavy to be returned via Royal Mail, please contact our Customer Care team to arrange for collection by courier. Please be aware that you are responsible for the cost of any returns.

9.3 Under our 30-Day Money-Back Guarantee the purchase price will be refunded provided that the product is returned in clean condition and in its original packaging. Delivery charges will not be refunded, unless you use your statutory right to cancel within the 14 day statutory returns period. Please see clause 9.1 for details. You should allow up to 14 days for your refund to be processed. We will normally refund you using the same payment method that you used to purchase the products. For further information on our 30-Day Money-Back Guarantee please see our returns policy at www.qvcuk.com.

9.4 It is our policy to contact and work with customers whose level of returns is very high. This is to ensure that our prices are not negatively impacted by the cost to QVC of dealing with an extremely high number of returns by a small minority of customers. If a customer continues to return an extremely high number of products to us, we reserve the right to close their account. If this happens the customer's statutory rights will remain unaffected, orders accepted by us before the account has been closed will be fulfilled in accordance with these terms and individual product warranties will continue to be honoured in accordance their terms.
