Treating Customers Fairly

At PowerBulbs we are committed to giving you excellent customer service and treating you fairly. We are fully committed to providing the highest standards of client service and advice and we never forget that you have a choice of supplier and are grateful that you've chosen us.

Treating Customers Fairly (TCF) is a key principle set by the financial regulator the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) to ensure that customers are treated fairly. At PowerBulbs we adhere to the FCA's six guiding principles on how to engage with customers, these govern how we communicate with our customers, the level of service we provide and the fairness of our products, services and procedures.

The six principles that we strive to achieve to ensure fair treatment of our customers:

2. Products and services marketed and sold in the retail market are designed to meet the needs of identified consumer groups and are targeted accordingly.

3. Consumers are provided with clear information and are kept appropriately informed before, during and after the point of sale.

4. Where consumers receive advice, the advice is suitable and takes account of their circumstances.

5. Consumers are provided with products that perform as firms have led them to expect, and the associated service is of an acceptable standard and as they have been led to expect.

6. Consumers do not face unreasonable post-sale barriers imposed by firms to change product, switch provider, submit a claim or make a complaint.

The ways we meet these requirements in the day to day running of our business:

  • We continually aim to understand the needs of our customers.

Contract Creation and Electronic Contracting

The technical steps required to create the contract between you and us are set out below:

  • You place the Order for your Goods on the website by pressing the confirm order button at the end of the checkout process. You will be guided through the process of placing an order by a series of simple instructions on the website.
  • We may send you an order acknowledgement email as soon as you place your order, and you will receive an order confirmation email detailing the Goods you have ordered. These emails do not constitute acceptance of your Order.
  • For items being delivered to you (as opposed to click & collect), when your product is shipped from our premises, we will send you a despatch confirmation email
  • Order acceptance and the completion of the contract between you and us will take place on the despatch to you of the Goods ordered unless we have notified you that we do not accept your Order.
  • For most Goods sent directly from our premises, your credit/debit card will be charged when your Order is placed
  • If the Goods are being delivered direct to you from a supplier, for instance in the case of larger products, you may be charged at any point between confirmation of your Order and despatch. The exact timing of this will vary according to supplier and the product you're ordering.

Non-acceptance of an Order by us may be a result of one of the following:

  • The Goods you ordered being unavailable from stock.
  • Our inability to obtain authorisation for your payment.
  • The identification of a pricing or product description error.
  • If you are placing an order for an item that by law is age-restricted, then by clicking the order confirm button you are also confirming to us that you are of at least the legal age required to purchase the product. By clicking the order confirm button, you further acknowledge and consent to us taking steps to verify your age by reference to publicly-available third-party sources. We reserve the right not to supply any age-restricted product where we reasonably believe that you are below the relevant minimum age.
  • All age-restricted goods must be received by a person who is at least 18 years old at the time of delivery or click & collect handover. We require this regardless of the relevant age limit for the age-restricted product.
  • We reserve the right to request proof of age identification from you if your order contains age-restricted goods, and we are unsure that you are at least 18 years old at the point of delivery or at the point of click & collect handover.

International credit card providers or banks will determine the exchange rate; if payment is made in a currency not issued as standard by the bank, they may add an additional processing or administration charge which the cardholder will be liable to pay.

Our delivery charge will be itemised as ‘delivery’ on the delivery and order confirmation pages of the website and in emails from us, after the subtotal for the value of the Goods purchased.

The total price you pay to us for the Goods is always the same.

VAT (or its equivalent tax) will depend on the country of delivery and will be applied as follows:

Australia - The price includes Australian GST unless otherwise stated but excludes any other local taxes or customs charges or import duties that may apply. Any such charges will be your responsibility and will not be paid by the Seller.

EU - The price includes VAT in the destination EU country unless otherwise stated but excludes any other local taxes or customs charges or import duties that may apply. Any such charges will be your responsibility and will not be paid by the Seller.

UK - The price includes UK VAT.

All Other Countries - The Goods and the delivery service will normally be zero-rated i.e. not subject to VAT (or its equivalent tax). However, the price paid by you for the Goods and/or the delivery service will remain the same but excludes any other local taxes or customs charges or import duties that may apply. Any such charges will be your responsibility and will not be paid by the Seller. As no VAT (or its equivalent tax) has been charged there is no tax to re-claim from us.

Import Duty and Tax Payments and Customs

Goods delivered to destinations outside the UK may be subject to taxes, fees, customs duty, levies or other charges once the Goods reach your country as a result of local legislation or customs formalities. The recipient of the Goods is responsible for all customs formalities for the import of the Goods and will be required to pay any additional charges for international delivery, including import duty, formal customs entry, taxes, levies and other charges that may be levied out-side the UK. The recipient of the Goods, not the person placing the order, will typically receive a separate request for payment of these charges when the goods arrive in the country of destination. If you are ordering Goods to be delivered to someone else, please ensure they are aware that they will be responsible for these additional charges.

Please note that in some countries, such as the USA and Canada, the person ordering Goods may receive a request for payment of these charges, in which case you will be responsible for paying these additional charges. Payment by you or the recipient (as applicable) must be received by the relevant customs authority before delivery of the Goods will be made.

Unfortunately, we have no control over these charges and cannot predict what they may be, so we are unable to offer any assistance on these processes. We advise that you check the import charges applicable in any country outside the UK before ordering Goods to be delivered there.

You (or the recipient of the Goods if different) will be the importer for all deliveries of the Goods outside the UK. Therefore, before placing an Order, it is your responsibility to check that any Goods ordered comply with country, state and/or federal government import regulations, and that there are no local requirements or restrictions which may affect receipt of your Order.

You agree that we will act on your behalf as exporter of the Goods and will complete export declarations in our own name on your behalf.

Deliveries of Goods to destinations outside the UK may be subject to cross-border inspections by customs authorities. We advise that you check any customs formalities in any country outside the UK before ordering Goods to be delivered there. We will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide you with information which we hold which relates to the Goods or order which you may need in order to arrange customs clearance however you must meet any additional charges for customs clearance.

Where possible, we or our subcontractors, will carry out all customs formalities on behalf of the recipient of the Goods. We or our subcontractors, will request payment for these charges from the recipient of the Goods in a separate invoice. We may also request information from you in relation to customs formalities. You must respond to any request for information within 5 days of the request, or the order will be cancelled, and the Goods returned to our warehouse.

If an Order is placed and restrictions that we were not aware of at the time the Order was made are applied by the customs authority of the destination country, then we will cancel the Order and return payment to you.

If the recipient wishes to return the Goods, they must request a refund of the customs duties and any tax directly with their local customs office and must present proof of return.

International Delivery Charges and VAT

The website will confirm our charge to deliver your Goods to an international address before you place your Order for the international delivery service.

The total price you pay us for the delivery services is always the same, regardless of whether or not UK VAT or an equivalent tax in your country is chargeable on the delivery service.

Applicable tax applying to delivery charges will depend on the country of delivery and will apply in accordance with the above paragraph (Payment and VAT).

GDPR

The GDPR is a new European privacy law designed to replace the EU’s Data Protection Directive. As of 25 May 2018, all companies and organisations that process personal information of EU citizens will be legally required to comply with the GDPR. These regulations will allow customers to have greater clarity and control over how their personal data is processed by organisations.

‘Personal data’ is defined as any information that can be used to directly or indirectly identify a person (eg customer email addresses, names, addresses, bank details, computer IP addresses etc). The new GDPR legislation makes it illegal for any such information to be gathered/used by an organisation without first gaining the unambiguous consent of the individual in question.

An organisation must use only clear, easily accessible language when requesting consent to process an individual’s personal data, and consent must be equally easy for the individual to withdraw. For example: a company may request an individual’s consent to use their email address (ie personal data) to subscribe them to a mailing list; this request must be made clearly and consent must be given in clear terms (such as through an ‘opt in’ tick-box); if a customer should choose to change their minds and withdraw their consent, this must be simple and clear to achieve (eg through a clearly identifiable ‘Unsubscribe’ link within a subscription email).

The new GDPR legislation addresses the need for organisations to shift focus onto the customer, and how best to serve, respect and protect them. PowerBulbs welcomes these legislative changes, and is delighted to incorporate them into our already impeccable service and data protection standards.

PowerBulbs will never contact customers for marketing purposes without first having received consent via a ‘Sign up’ box on the website homepage or an 'opt-in' tick box at the website checkout page, nor will we ever pass customer details to third parties. We record how and when any such consent is obtained and what precisely such consent includes. We respect and support the customer’s ‘right to be forgotten’ – that is, the erasing of customers' personal data at their request. Customer requests for personal data to be erased can be made via email at support@powerbulbs.com or telephone at: 01924 334180.

More information on the EU’s new GDPR legislation, the final legal text and information on key issues can be found at: https://gdpr-info.eu/

Customer Satisfaction Policy

If you are not completely satisfied with the quality of service or any product that you purchase from our company, please contact our Customer Service Team.

They will review each complaint individually within 5 days, fairly and confidentially and in accordance with our quality systems.

We will keep you informed on the progress and outcome by e-mail or by your chosen method of communication within the 5 days.

Reviews and Testimonials

We encourage our customers to submit product reviews and testimonials. However, there may be rare occasions where we do not publish all product reviews and testimonials.

For example, we may not publish a review or testimonial if it contains inaccurate or irrelevant information, or if it contains inappropriate or offensive language.

We reserve the right to choose not to publish any review submitted.
