Delivery Times

We will endeavour to dispatch your order within the specified times but there will be very occasional times when certain items are out of stock or no longer available, if this happens we will notify you of any delay or stock issue before your delivery is due.

We understand goods are needed urgently sometimes, so there is a field on the checkout page where you can notify us of any date you might need your goods for.  Please use this box to tell us if you need the goods urgently as this helps us process your order more efficiently and advise if we are unable to fulfil your order.

Upon receiving your order we will send you confirmation and then again when the order has been dispatched so you know when to expect it.  You are able to log into your account and check on the status of your account at any time.  Delivery times quoted on the website are estimated unless you have chosen a specific delivery service.

My order has not arrived, what should I do?

We send all of our packets via Royal Mail using the delivery option you have chosen on checkout and all have Insurance on them for loss.  If your parcel has not arrived we ask that you allow 15 WORKING days from the date of your dispatch email for your parcels arrival as the Post Office will not consider any package missing until 15 working days have elapsed.  For overseas addresses, please allow up to 6 weeks for your parcel to arrive.  After this time please contact us and let us know that there is a problem so we can sort it out.

Postage and Packaging:

We dispatch all in stock items within 3-5 working days from the date of placing your order.  We send items to UK addresses by 48 hour postage with Proof of Delivery. Any additional service will have to be paid for at time of purchase and, if you require Additional Insurance on the package, please ensure this option is taken at time of checkout.

Should you require an item to be sent on Next Day Delivery we will be able to do this for an additional charge but the order must be placed by 12pm.

Overseas packages are sent via Royal Mail Airmail and quoted delivery time is 5-10 working days however, there has been the rare occasion where a package has been held in customs at the destination country and this could hold up the delivery time. Any Insurance on the package is an additional fee, please choose this option at time of checkout.

All items are sent in waterproof and tamper proof opaque plastic envelopes.  If the package is being sent outside of the UK, their will be additional customs charges and the label will state that the package contains 'Clothing'. Please be aware that duty may be payable upon receipt of the package in your home country and we will not be held liable for these fees. This is your responsibility so please be aware if any charge may exist.

Sale and Clearance Items:

We endeavour to keep the available sizes as up to date as possible and all clearance items offered will be in stock and available for delivery.  As we are a working shop, there may be the occasional time that an item will be out of stock when the order is picked, if this is the case you will be advised but not charged for this item.  Should you purchase a set (i.e. bra or bikini set) and only one part of the set is in stock you will be notified before your card is charged and you are then free to cancel the order so you are not left with oddments.

Refunds & Returns:

Please see our page on Refunds and Returns for more information

Paypal Payments and Security:

We only accept payment by Paypal unless you pay over the telephone or instore.  All prices quoted, and payments you make, will be in GBP.  If you hold a card in another currency you card will be charged at the Exchange Rate for that day.  Please use a currency converter to give you a guide as to how much you will be charged for your order.  Please note that this will be a rough guide as the rate may differ on the day the order is processed and your card charged.

We do not hold any of your sensitive card data and all of your personal information is encrypted within our site by use of an SSL and we are not able to access any of your card details or information.

Discount Codes:

Any abuse or use of multiple discount codes will endeavour the order invalid.  You may only use one code per order.  All monies will be returned by the method it was paid and the order cancelled.  Any returns will be subject to adjustment if a code has been used.  Discount codes cannot be used in conjunction with any other offer or affiliate scheme.

Guarantee - Faulty Goods:

We guarantee our lingerie and swimwear for three months from the date of shipping providing that you have followed the appropriate washing instructions and care guide on the garment. Faulty goods must be returned together with a covering note explaining the problem. A refund or exchange will be given in these circumstances.
EXCLUSION - PLEASE NOTE: Underwire bras and bikinis should NEVER be placed in any washing machine or drier, they should ne washed by hand and allowed to drip dry to avoid any damage to the wires or the shape of the garment.  We can always tell when bras have been placed in a machine as the wires become misshapen and the labels wash off, if bras get caught between the drum and seal, the material will be stripped back to the wire.  This would never happen when a bra is washed by hand.  We are a small independant business and should not be the ones bearing the financial loss for someone not following care labels on the bras.

The Fitting Room reserves the right to cancel any order for any reason, without limitation, whether or not payment has been received.  You will be informed by email should this situation arise and any monies charged will be refunded immediately.

We hope this has covered everything you need to know, but should you have any other query regarding our terms, service or items then please feel free to email or telephone us, you will find our details on the contact page.
