If an order is not correct in any way, you must notify us immediately by contacting support@avea-life.com.

6 PAYMENT AND DELIVERY

6.2 Orders that are delivered to an address outside the UK may incur duties and other taxes. You will be liable to pay any customs duties and/or sales taxes that are relevant to your order.

6.3 The price of a product as stated on our website does not include delivery charges. Any delivery charges will be made clear before you select your product (please see our FAQs) and during the check-out process on our website.

6.4 Payments for all products must be paid in Pound Sterling or such other currency as stated on our website from time to time. Payment will be taken at checkout.

6.5 Our website sets out the method of payments that we are able to accept.

6.6 Our website contains a large number of products for sale and from time to time it is possible that some products may be displayed at incorrect prices.If the correct price for a product or order is higher than the price stated on our website, we will normally contact you before the relevant order is delivered. In such event, we are not obliged to fulfil the order at the incorrect lower price or to provide compensation.

6.7 Promotional vouchers and discount codes: a credit or discount may apply to your order if you use a promotional voucher or discount code recognised by us. Please refer to our Promotional Voucher Terms below for the full terms that apply to the use of credit and discount vouchers. Note that because of banking procedures, your bank or card issuer may initially ‘ring-fence’ the full price of the order before any credit or discount for 3 to 5 working days (or possibly longer, depending on your bank or card issuer), and the full price may therefore be unavailable in your account for that period. The credit or discount will be applied when your bank or card issuer transfers to us the funds for your order, at which point the credit or discounted amount will not be transferred to us and will instead be released by your bank or card issuer back into your available balance. We will not be responsible or liable in relation to this delay by your bank or card issuer in the release of funds back into your account.

6.8 Rejected orders: Because of standard banking procedures, once you have submitted an order and your payment has been authorised, your bank or card issuer will ‘ring-fence’ the full price of your order. If your order is subsequently rejected or cancelled for any other reason, your bank or card issuer may not transfer the funds for the order to us, and may instead release the relevant amount back into your available balance. This may take 3 to 5 working days (or possibly longer, depending on your bank or card issuer). We are not responsible or liable to you in relation to this delay by your bank or card issuer in the release of funds back into your account.

7 PRODUCT SUBSCRIPTION DISCOUNT

7.1 We may offer a ‘subscription’ option on certain products whereby you commit automatically to purchasing one (or more) units of an eligible product(which you choose) in the relevant subscription period (which you also choose). In return, we, Avea Life, will offer and fund a discount on your purchase of that product, which will be applied at checkout. The level of discount may vary between products and will be made clear on our website. The subscription periods may vary from time to time, but may likely include monthly, quarterly and/or yearly options (each a ‘Subscription’). You may choose multiple Subscriptions (i.e. of different products). You must register for an account in order to purchase a Subscription.

7.2 For example, if you choose a monthly Subscription option for a product, we will automatically process and send you an order confirmation for your chosen number of units of that product every month until you ask us to stop that Subscription. By choosing a Subscription, you agree to your debit or credit card being charged on a recurring basis(i.e. monthly, quarterly, or annually depending on the Subscription) at the price of the product stated on our website at the date of automatic order generation. You agree that we can do so without further authorisation from you.

We shall try to give you at least 7 days’ notice of price rises so that you have the chance to cancel your Subscription; and (b) if you cancel a Subscription, the Subscription remains active until the end of your then-current subscription term. In either event, you can still benefit from the product cancellation right explained below at clause 8, so long as you meet the eligibility and product return criteria.
