FAQs

Where do you deliver?
We currently deliver anywhere on the UK mainland.

What happens after I place my order?
You will receive an email from the supplier of your goods. You will receive one email per supplier (for example if you order 2 products from one supplier and 1 product from another supplier, you will receive 2 emails).

Will all the goods I order arrive at the same time?
Your goods may arrive at different times due to being despatched under seperate cover. Check the printout of your order confirmation or your confirmation email to determine the supplier of your goods and when those goods will be delivered.

When will my order arrive?
The delivery details of your goods will be outlined in your confirmation email and vary by supplier. However, all goods will be delivered no later than 28 days.

Do you allow delivery to a different address?
Yes, you can enter a different delivery address to your own address. For example you may want your goods delivered to your work address or as a gift for someone else.

Is your site secure?
Yes, our site is completely secure. To ensure the security of your transaction, we use Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology. This means that any page where you enter personal information such as credit card details, the information is encrypted to safeguard your details. Encryption also prevents other Internet users from accessing this information. We only accept orders that are placed using this technology.

If I pay by credit or debit card, when will my card be charged?
All payments by debit or credit card are taken on despatch of the product. You will see "Spectator Shop Order - [name of your supplier]" on your credit card statement.

How do I return my goods?
You can return your goods to the supplier for a refund as long as the goods are unused and unworn and are not perishable or personalised. The returns policy is outlined in the dispatch note included with your goods. We recommend you use a recorded delivery service to ensure the safe delivery of returned goods as we cannot be held responsible for goods you return that are lost in transit. Please be aware that the recorded delivery service you use may not cover the total value of your goods if they are lost in transit. It is your responsibility to check this.

What if I want a refund on my clothes?
If you are unhappy with any clothes you receive please contact the supplier of those clothes. The details of the supplier will be on your confirmation email and the printout from your order confirmation.

What do I do if my goods are damaged or faulty?
You should contact the supplier of your goods in the first instance. Their contact details are found on your confirmation email. You can also contact the spectator at spectatorshop@spectator.co.uk or call 0207 961 0200
