Please make sure that all delivery information is correct as if a parcel is delivered to the wrong address or the item is not signed for at the address you have given and we have to make a collection on your behalf you will be charged a sum of £9.99 for all mistakes to be rectified with our courier and for a re-delivery to take place. If you do not want to request a re-delivery you will be refunded the cost of the item minus the £9.99 fee for the incorrect delivery. These charges will also occur if a parcel is returned to us because nobody is present at the delivery address to sign for the parcel and nobody contacts our courier to arrange a pick up or re-delivery and the parcel is returned to us .

PLEASE NOTE
If a delivery is attempted at your address but no one is there to collect your parcel a card should be put through your letter box unless full online tracking details are provided by the courier.
We do need to state that it is the customers responsibility to ensure that they are present to sign for the parcel. In no way can The Diet Hut LTD, Parcel Force or UK Mail be held liable for failed deliveries unless either of those parties has been negligent in their duty to deliver. In addition I regret that UK Mail or Parcel Force staff (drivers, depot staff or account managers) will not be able to call the customer under any circumstances.

What if your goods arrive damaged?
If by the very rare chance your goods are damaged during transit upon delivery we ask that if there is visible damage upon collection to reject the parcel or sign for the parcel as damaged. For us to process a claim and send you out a replacement item we will then need to be provided with photographic evidence of the damaged product and may need to arrange for the courier the collect the parcel back from you or the courier may need to come back to inspect the parcel at your property. If no evidence can be provided as proof of damage and if the courier has no access to view the damaged parcel your claim will be rejected and no replacement will be sent.
Adverse weather conditions - On the very rare chance your order is delayed due to adverse weather conditions out of our control. Please contact us for confirmation and we will contact the courier to give you as much information as possible to make your delay as short as we can. Im afraid any upgraded postage fees will not be refunded as the good will have left on the stated service but a delay will have been caused from circumstances out of our control.
