Returns & Refunds Policy
1. Introduction
This Returns & Refunds Policy (“Policy”) applies to all purchases made from Wingate Studio Ltd (“we”, “us”, “our”). By placing an order, you agree to the terms set out below. This Policy complies with applicable UK consumer protection legislation, including the Consumer Rights Act 2015 and the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013.
2. Right to Return
Customers may return eligible items within 30 days of receipt for a refund or exchange. To be eligible, items must be:
-
Unworn and unused
-
In their original condition
-
Returned with original packaging and any supplied accessories
This Policy does not affect your statutory rights.
3. Free Returns
We provide free returns for all orders delivered within the United Kingdom.
All returns must be made using our prepaid Royal Mail return label, which we will supply upon request. Customers must not send returns via alternative couriers (e.g., Evri, DPD, DHL, UPS), as our returns address can only accept Royal Mail deliveries.
4. Returns Process
To initiate a return, customers must:
-
Contact us at hello@wingate-studio.com and provide the order number and reason for return.
-
Await approval and receipt of a prepaid Royal Mail Tracked return label.
-
Affix the label securely to the parcel.
-
Deposit the parcel at any Royal Mail Post Office or Royal Mail collection point.
We reserve the right to refuse returns that do not comply with this Policy.
5. Returns Address
All returns must be sent to the following address:
Wingate Studio PO Box [insert number] [Insert town] [Insert postcode] United Kingdom
This PO Box accepts Royal Mail deliveries only.
6. Refunds
Refunds will be issued once the returned item has been received and inspected. Refunds are processed to the original payment method only.
Refund processing times:
-
Inspection: up to 3 working days after receipt
-
Refund issuance: 3–5 working days thereafter
Refund times may vary depending on the customer’s payment provider.
7. Exchanges
Where stock permits, customers may request an exchange for a different size or product. Exchanges follow the same process as returns. If the requested item is unavailable, a refund will be issued instead.
8. Faulty or Incorrect Items
If an item is faulty, damaged, or incorrect upon delivery, customers must notify us within 7 days of receipt. We will provide a replacement or refund in accordance with UK consumer law. Evidence (e.g., photographs) may be required.
