You must pay for any return delivery costs, except where the wrong item has been sent to you or the item is defective. Where an item cannot, by its nature, be returned by post (for example an exercise bike) we charge a collection fee.
The items need to be in the original packaging where it forms part of the goods, for example, boxed goods, garments and gift items). Where an item has a return policy swing ticket attached, it must still be attached and undamaged upon return. Return postage is at your own cost and risk.
How much money will be refunded to me?
Cycle Champs will refund you in full for any items you return but will deduct from any reimbursement an amount equal to any diminishment in value of the items as a result of you handling the items beyond what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the items.
If you are returning all items in your order Cycle Champs will also refund the cost of the initial delivery to you, but only up to the cost of the standard delivery charge. Cycle Champs will not refund any Next Day, Express, Saturday or other premium component of any delivery charge. If you are not returning all the items in your order, the initial delivery cost will not be returned to you.
Cycle Champs will refund you using the same payment method originally used by you to make the payment (unless you have expressly agreed otherwise). You will be refunded no later than 14 days after the day Cycle Champs receives the items you are returning back from you.
You have a legal obligation to take reasonable care of the items while they are in your possession. If you fail to comply with this obligation, Cycle Champs may have a right of action against you for compensation. This applies to all items that are returned.
Once a refund has been issued you will receive a confirmation email detailing the amount which has been refunded and the item(s) Cycle Champs has received back. If a refund or reimbursement is payable to you, Cycle Champs will transfer the money using the same method originally used by you to pay for your purchase. Cycle Champs cannot refund via the original payment then a cheque will be raised to the address on the order (except in the case of a full or part purchase of items using a Gift Card, as detailed below).
If any product purchased with a Gift Card is subsequently exchanged for a product of a lower price, any money owing will only be issued as a Gift Card. If your purchase was partially paid for on Gift Card and a refund is payable to you, your Gift Card will be refunded up to the card's original value, and any outstanding balance owed after this will be refunded via the other payment method originally used for your purchase. If you no longer have the Gift Card used to purchase the returned item(s), Cycle Champs will issue you with a new Gift Card to the value payable to you up to the amount of the card's original value.
Cycle Champs aims to process all returns as quickly as possible and you should receive confirmation of this within a week of having returned the item. Please note that if you have been provided with Cycle Champs’ freepost address then due to the extra time it takes for freepost items to be delivered it may take up to 14 days to receive confirmation of your refund.
