EU* & EUROPE DELIVERY

EU* Orders:

*Important Post-Brexit Information for EU Customers:

EU customers are now required to pay VAT on their order to the courier rather than us.

This means:

  • Prior to Brexit, your order total included 20% VAT
  • Since Brexit, you will no longer be charged any VAT on your order at checkout
  • Instead, the courier will contact you prior to delivery to inform you of the total amount of VAT to pay on your order
  • You will then be responsible for paying VAT (according to your country’s rate and threshold) along with any Import Duty (on goods over 150 EUR) and any admin charges to the courier to your country to enable customs to release the parcel
  • If you refuse to pay these charges to customs, please note that we cannot take responsibility for your order or issue a refund until your order reaches our office. Once received, your order will be refunded (excl. delivery charges).

Standard European Delivery: £8.95 – Delivery estimated within 5 – 7 working days

Transactions are carried out in sterling and you will be charged in sterling which means the amount you pay will depend on the exchange rate at the time your order is processed. Orders may be subject to local taxes & import charges in certain countries which must be borne by you. Glitzy Secrets Ltd cannot predict what these charges may be and recommend that you contact your local customs office for information.

WORLDWIDE DELIVERY

Standard Worldwide Delivery: £9.95 – Delivery estimated within 7 – 10 working days

International Orders – Transactions are carried out in sterling and you will be charged in sterling which means the amount you pay will depend on the exchange rate at the time your order is processed.

Your card will be refunded within 7 days of us receiving your return and you will receive a confirmation to let you know. Depending upon the banks and your card issuer, it can take several further days for the refund to appear in your account.

Please note: Please allow 14 days before contacting us regarding your refund.

FAULTY GOODS

As every item is thoroughly inspected by our manufacturer and again by our Quality Control Team prior to despatch, this instance is very rare. We take any item reported as faulty very seriously and the item may undergo a formal manufacturer investigation to determine the cause of the fault as Glitzy Secrets prides itself on quality. If you have received a faulty item, please follow the process below. We will issue a full refund (incl. postage costs), exchange (if available) or credit note once the item has been deemed as faulty by Glitzy Secrets. In the event that you are also returning non-faulty items, the cost for the return of the faulty item only will be reimbursed.

Step 1: Email info@glitzysecrets.com to inform us of the fault within 30 days of receipt. Please include your original order reference, your name and billing address as well as an explanation of the fault discovered. We will send a Return Acknowledgement email with your Returns Authorisation Number and the postage method you should use to return the faulty goods.

Step 2: On receipt of your Returns Authorisation Number (RAN), write your Returns Number on the returns slip on the reverse of the delivery note enclosed with your order. If you do not have your delivery note, either print our email or enclose your RAN and name, billing address and telephone number.

Step 3: Place the completed Returns Slip in the package along with the item/s* you wish to return.

Step 4: Return your goods within 7 days of receipt of your RAN by the postal method stated in your Return Acknowledgement email to:
