Abbey Wood Florist E-Commerce Terms & Conditions

Introduction

These e-commerce Terms and Conditions ("Terms") set out the basis on which Abbey Wood Florist supplies flowers, plants, gifts, and related products ("Products") via our online ordering platform for flower delivery in Abbey Wood and the surrounding areas. By placing an order online, you agree to be bound by these Terms, which apply in addition to any other policies or notices displayed on our website.

These Terms apply to customers placing orders for delivery across Abbey Wood and nearby locations that we service. Please read them carefully before submitting your order, as they explain your rights and obligations and our responsibilities as a UK-based florist.

Definitions

In these Terms:

(a) "Abbey Wood Florist", "we", "us" or "our" means the florist business operating the website and providing the Products;
(b) "you" or "your" means the person placing an order for Products;
(c) "Website" means our online platform on which you can place orders for flower delivery in Abbey Wood;
(d) "Contract" means the legally binding agreement between you and us for the sale of Products under these Terms.

Eligibility and Use of the Website

By using our Website and placing an order, you confirm that you are at least 18 years old and capable of entering into a legally binding contract under UK law. You agree to use the Website only for lawful purposes and to provide accurate and complete information when placing your order.

Order Process

Our Website allows you to browse a range of bouquets, arrangements, plants, and related gifts available for online flower delivery in Abbey Wood and selected surrounding areas.

To place an order, you will typically need to:

(a) select your chosen Products and add them to your online basket;
(b) provide the recipient’s full name, delivery address, and any access instructions;
(c) select a preferred delivery date and time slot (where available);
(d) add any message to be included with the delivery (if desired);
(e) provide your contact details and billing address; and
(f) complete the payment process on the checkout page.

Before submitting your order, you will have an opportunity to review and amend the details. Please check all information carefully, especially the delivery address and date, as errors can affect successful delivery and may incur additional charges.

Once you submit your order, you will receive an order confirmation on-screen and/or by electronic means. This confirmation acknowledges that we have received your order but does not guarantee acceptance. A Contract between you and us is formed only when we have accepted your order and begun processing it.

We reserve the right to decline or cancel any order where:

(a) the Product is unavailable;
(b) we cannot obtain authorisation for your payment;
(c) we reasonably suspect fraudulent or unlawful activity; or
(d) there is an error in pricing or description of the Product.

If we are unable to accept your order, we will inform you and, where payment has been taken, we will arrange a refund in accordance with these Terms.

Product Descriptions and Substitutions

We aim to ensure that all Product descriptions, images, and prices on our Website are accurate and up to date. However, flowers and foliage are natural products and are subject to seasonal availability. As a result, actual arrangements may differ slightly from images shown.

If a particular flower, colour, or container is unavailable at the time of preparation, we may substitute with similar items of equal or greater value, maintaining the overall style, theme, and quality of your chosen Product. Where a significant change is necessary, we will use reasonable efforts to contact you using the details provided with your order.

Prices and Payment

All prices displayed on the Website are in pounds sterling (GBP) and include UK VAT where applicable. Delivery charges, if any, will be shown separately during the checkout process before you confirm your order.

We take all reasonable care to ensure that the prices displayed are correct. If we discover an error in the price of a Product you have ordered, we will inform you as soon as reasonably possible and give you the option of reconfirming your order at the correct price or cancelling it. If we are unable to contact you, we may treat the order as cancelled and will provide a refund if payment has been taken.

Payment must be made at the time of ordering via the payment methods available on our Website. By submitting payment details, you confirm that you are authorised to use the chosen payment method and that the payment information provided is accurate and complete.

Your order will not be processed or dispatched until payment has been successfully received and authorised.

Delivery Areas and Times

We provide online flower delivery in Abbey Wood and selected surrounding areas, as indicated on our Website or at the point of checkout. It is your responsibility to ensure that the delivery address provided is within our service area. If an address is outside our delivery zone, we may be unable to fulfil your order and will contact you to discuss alternatives or arrange a refund.

Delivery dates and time slots (where offered) are requested in good faith, and we endeavour to deliver on the chosen date. However, delivery times are estimates only and cannot be guaranteed, especially during peak periods such as Valentine’s Day, Mother’s Day, Christmas, and other busy occasions.

If the recipient is not at home at the time of delivery, we may, at our discretion:

(a) leave the flowers with a neighbour;
(b) leave the flowers in a safe place at the property; or
(c) leave a delivery card asking the recipient to contact us to rearrange delivery or collection.

Where you specify particular delivery instructions, you accept responsibility for any risk of loss or damage arising from us following those instructions (for example, leaving flowers on a doorstep or with a third party).

Risk and Title

Ownership of the Products passes to you once we have received full payment of all sums due in respect of the Products, including any delivery charges. Risk of loss or damage to the Products passes to you at the time the Products are delivered to the recipient’s address or left in accordance with your delivery instructions.

Cancellations and Amendments

Due to the perishable nature of flowers, your right to cancel under UK consumer law may be limited once we have begun preparing your order.

If you wish to cancel or amend your order, you should contact us as soon as possible using the contact details on our Website. We will make reasonable efforts to accommodate your request, subject to the following:

(a) If your order has not yet been prepared or dispatched, we may be able to cancel or amend it and, where appropriate, arrange a refund.
(b) If preparation has already begun or the order has been dispatched, we may be unable to cancel or change it. In this case, you may be liable for the full cost of the order.

For peak trading days, such as Valentine’s Day, Mother’s Day, and major holidays, we may require longer notice for cancellations or amendments. Any specific cut-off times will be indicated on our Website where applicable.

Returns, Quality Issues and Refunds

We take pride in the quality and freshness of our flowers and aim to provide a reliable flower delivery service in Abbey Wood and nearby areas. On receipt, the recipient should follow any care instructions provided to prolong the life of the flowers.

If you are not satisfied with the condition of the flowers or believe they are faulty or damaged on delivery, please contact us promptly with details of the issue and, where possible, clear evidence such as photographs. We may, at our discretion and subject to assessment:

(a) offer a replacement arrangement;
(b) provide a partial or full refund; or
(c) offer a credit towards a future order.

Any remedy will be considered on a case-by-case basis, taking into account the nature of the complaint, the condition of the flowers, and the time that has elapsed since delivery.

Personal Messages

If you provide a personal message to accompany your order, you are responsible for the content of that message. You must not include any content that is unlawful, offensive, discriminatory, or abusive. We reserve the right to refuse to include any message that we reasonably deem inappropriate or in breach of applicable laws or regulations.

Customer Obligations

By placing an order with Abbey Wood Florist, you agree to:

(a) provide accurate and complete information, including contact details and delivery address;
(b) ensure that the recipient or an authorised person is available to receive the delivery where reasonably possible;
(c) follow any care instructions supplied with the flowers;
(d) comply with all applicable laws and regulations when using our Website and services.

Liability

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits our liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, fraud, fraudulent misrepresentation, or any other liability that cannot be excluded or limited under UK law.

Subject to the above, we will not be liable for:

(a) any loss or damage arising from inaccurate or incomplete information provided by you, including an incorrect delivery address;
(b) any failure to deliver where circumstances are beyond our reasonable control, including severe weather, traffic disruption, or other events of force majeure;
(c) any indirect or consequential loss, loss of profits, business, or goodwill, whether arising in contract, tort, or otherwise.

Our total liability for any loss or damage arising out of or in connection with any Contract shall not exceed the price paid for the relevant order.

Promotions and Discount Codes

From time to time, we may offer promotions, discount codes, or special offers for online flower delivery in Abbey Wood and surrounding areas. Such promotions are subject to separate terms and conditions, which may include expiry dates, usage limits, or restrictions on particular Products or dates.

We reserve the right to withdraw or amend any promotion at any time without notice, provided that such withdrawal or amendment does not affect orders already placed and accepted by us.

Privacy and Data Protection

We are committed to protecting your privacy and handling your personal data in accordance with UK data protection laws. Any personal information you provide when placing an order, such as your name, contact details, and payment information, will be processed in line with our privacy practices as described in the relevant policy on our Website.

Any failure by us to enforce any right or provision under these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of that right or provision.

These Terms, together with any other policies or documents referred to on our Website, constitute the entire agreement between you and Abbey Wood Florist in relation to your use of our online ordering service and supersede any prior agreements, understandings, or arrangements between us, whether oral or written.
