During busy periods, please allow up to seven working days for delivery to Northern Ireland and 10 working days for delivery to the Highlands and Islands.
If you are not in when our couriers first try to deliver and they cannot find a safe location to leave the package, they will leave a card, take your order back and then attempt to delivery 2 more times on the following working days. Please follow the instructions on the card left by the courier to arrange redelivery.

IMPORTANT RETURNS INFORMATION – PLEASE READ

 What if I need to return an item?

 If you are not entirely satisfied with your purchase, or the item is not suitable, you can return it to us within 14 days of the date of dispatch in its original, saleable condition with a completed returns note stating the reason for return.

 When trying on an item, please ensure that it is kept free of marks or scents such as from food, perfume, cosmetics, deodorant and cigarettes. We will not be able to refund any item where there is evidence that these instructions have not been fully complied with.

Once we have received your returned item(s), please allow up to 10 working days for us to process your refund. It may require additional time for the refund to appear on your credit card account, but this time frame is dictated by your bank or card issuer and is outside of our control. Your refund will be credited to the same card with which you made that purchase and if there is a problem issuing a refund to your card, our customer service team will contact you.

 What happens if I return my item after the 14 days?

 If an item is returned outside the 14 day policy, you will be given a voucher code for the value of the item(s) purchased. This voucher can only be redeemed against another purchase via the annascholz website www.annascholz.com. After the 14 day return policy has expired, we cannot make a refund onto your credit/debit card for the item(s) returned, nor are we able to send the item(s) back to you, so please look closely at the dispatch date before returning your order.

Sale items or products purchased under ‘Special Promotions’ that involve a reduction in price from the normal retail price must be returned within 7 days of receipt.

In addition to our returns policy, under the Distance Selling Regulations EU customers have seven working days (beginning the day after receipt) to cancel your purchase (unless it is a purchase of financial services, food, drink or other perishable products; DVDs, CDs or software which have been unsealed; magazines; or tailor-made / customised products). Order cancellations must be made in writing to Customer Services quoting your order number. In this case, we will provide a full refund but you must return the cancelled items to us. If we do not receive the cancelled items back, we may arrange to collect them from you at your cost
