Refund Policy:

All picture frames, mounts, digital prints, and canvas reproductions are custom-made to your specifications and, under UK law, are not eligible for refunds. According to the Consumer Contract Regulations, goods made to the consumer’s specifications or personalized are excluded from cancellation, exchange, or refund rights. This is because they are tailored to your requirements and cannot be resold.

In some cases, we can offer a goodwill solution for items ordered incorrectly, or that do not meet your requirements for other reasons. This discretionary policy applies only to orders valued at £300 or less. To clarify, this does not guarantee a refund but may include offering replacements with updated specifications at a reduced cost as a goodwill gesture.

If there is an issue with your order, such as size or colour, please get in touch with us. We will likely assist if the matter is raised courteously and without confrontation.

Non-personalised or non-customised items may be returned for a full refund, excluding delivery costs, within 14 days of receipt. Items must be returned at your expense, in original packaging, and unused condition. We do not refund postage for correctly supplied items.

If only part of an order is returned, the invoice total will be adjusted to reflect the current online price for retained items, and the difference will be refunded. If the revised order total falls below the free delivery threshold, delivery charges will apply and be deducted from the refund. Discounts will also be recalculated based on updated quantities. Any no longer applicable discounts will be deducted from the refund amount.

Damage Policy:

Definition of Damage

Damage refers to visible scratches, dents, or breakages during transit or from misuse. Under The Consumer Rights Act 2015, the damage is distinct from manufacturing defects or faults.

Responsibility Upon Delivery

Once the courier accepts the goods, you are responsible for them. Any visible damage should be recorded on the delivery document before the courier departs. However, we understand that immediate inspection may not always be possible.

Damage Reporting Policy

PhotoFramed.co.uk will accept responsibility for damage reported within 48 hours of receipt and before the goods are used.

Replacements will be provided for apparent damage based on the original order specifications. Refunds or alternate replacements will not be offered.

Usage and Damage Claims

Picture frames are delicate; damage can occur quickly if mishandled.

Goods must be inspected for damage before use. Claims for damage reported after use will not be accepted, as damage may have resulted from misuse.

 

A picture frame is considered “used” when removing the acrylic glazing and protective film.

Exception for Scratched Acrylic

Claims for scratched acrylic will be accepted if reported within 48 hours of receipt, as scratches may not be visible until the protective film is removed.
