2. Delivery

2.1 Delivery Destination

The delivery destination will default to the UK Delivery Zone 1. This zone covers the majority of areas in England and Wales and a large part of Scotland and the Express UK Delivery is available to the majority of these delivery locations in zone 1. Some postcode areas in the UK will need to be changed to UK 2 Day Delivery and this is detailed more below. To change the delivery destination; first add an item to your basket and choose the location from the drop down menu and add your postcode. For those wishing to view an item before you buy; please contact our shop to check delivery has arrived at the store and is on display as products change daily.

The UK Delivery Zone 2 includes the Highlands, offshore islands, remote areas of the UK and some postcode locations that take an additional day to deliver. International deliveries can take up to a further 7 days to deliver. For example: A postcode area north of Aberdeen may be delivered with a courier routed for the Highlands. They aren't necessarily in the Highlands but could be sent with the Highlands courier and this would carry an additional fee for delivery, or might not be accepted for delivery if the item is too large. If your delivery location does not qualify for the UK (Selected Locations) country zone, then a message will be displayed when selecting your address in the checkout. We endeavour to be as clear as possible with any delivery charges and free delivery locations. If you experience any difficulty whilst ordering, please contact us and we will try to help.

We deliver internationally and a current full list of countries can be viewed from our Delivery Information page.

2.2 Estimated Delivery Time

We offer a '2 working days' estimated delivery time for UK Delivery Zone 1 calculated from stock kept in our shop and warehouse. Estimations are provided for convenience and although we make every effort to deliver within these time scales, it is unfortunately not always possible to do so. Items in stock are usually ready for dispatch the same day. This is subject to correct stock levels and the courier collection schedule. Express delivery orders are given priority and will be dispatched as soon as possible with the fastest courier service available. We only dispatch on week days between Monday to Friday and do not deliver on bank holidays, therefore all estimated times are in working days only. Saturdays, Sundays and Bank Holidays are not counted as working days. We always endeavour to contact you in cases where delivery times may change. Please allow additional time for courier deliveries during busy periods of the year. If you would like verification on your order delivery time please message us for more information. For deliveries to UK Delivery Zone 2 please allow an additional working day for delivery.

If you order multiple items with different estimated delivery times, your order will usually be dispatched when all ordered goods are available for packing, if you require a part order dispatch please contact us and we will make arrangements to dispatch earlier.

2.3 Delivery Method

We use several couriers and methods of delivery. Customers are emailed notification of dispatch and tracking information. For a more comprehensive look at what delivery services we offer, take a look at our Delivery Information page.

2.4 Email and Text Service

Get the Email and Text service with your estimated delivery time from DPD Local and Royal Mail. If we send your order with DPD Local or Royal Mail and providing you have supplied an email address and mobile phone number, they will email you prior to delivery to confirm that they have your order and will be delivering it to the requested address. On the morning of delivery you will get a text and an email with an estimated delivery time. If your order is dispatched by DX Delivery or the direct from the manufacturer you will not receive this service. To upgrade your delivery service before we dispatch, please contact us.

2.5 Shortages or Damage on Delivery

Any and all order shortages, wrong items or items which are deemed to be damaged or faulty on delivery must be reported within 5 days of you receiving the order, failure to do so may result in us being unable to rectify the problem.

2.6 Delivery Miscellaneous

In cases where your order be returned to us undelivered, we reserve the right to charge a redelivery fee for sending any goods out a second time, covering our costs.

For international shipping please view our international terms and conditions below. If you would like delivery to a destination which is not listed please contact us on 01432 377089.

2.7 Delivery Problems

You have 5 days from the day we dispatch a parcel to notify us on any delivery problems or if your parcel has not arrived as planned. By supplying us with your email address we can notify you on the day that your order has been dispatched. If you're aware of any delivery problems, please notify us immediately and we will endeavour to help rectify them. Failure to inform us that your delivery has not arrived within 5 days may result in loss, so it is important you ask us for help as soon as possible. We do have parcel tracking methods that may help find a parcel after it has been delivered. Delivery problems are rare now with GPS tracking but if it does happen then we're here to help.

A Safeplace location can be any secure, weatherproof area of the property that is considered safe and easily accessible but this does not include leaving in bins. If your order has been despatched with Royal Mail or DPD and the parcel does not require a signature or age verification, you can download both the Royal Mail and the DPD delivery Apps where you can set delivery preferences. You can set your preferred safe place, so the couriers know where you would prefer parcels to be left if you're not in. Most couriers will now try to leave parcels where they deem to be safe, unless you have requested not to leave anywhere safe if you're out. Once a parcel is left in a safe place it becomes the responsibility of the recipient. You can opt out of safe place delivery on either delivery apps, simply uncheck the safe places listed or choose "Opt Out of Safeplace". If you experience any delivery problems or loss, we can attempt to claim on your behalf but we do need to wait for a decision off the couriers before we can proceed with any refund or replacement. If the courier deems the parcel to be safely left, the claim may be rejected.

3. Postage and Packing costs

FREE UK Delivery for selected locations

Some parts of the UK that fall into delivery zone 2 will incur delivery charges.

We now offer FREE delivery on most of the UK on orders over £50 in value. This includes the majority of our products. Certain items are excluded from this offer and these will show during the checkout. Simply add the items to the basket and the delivery price can be recalculated so you can save money on delivery. Our website automatically selects the cost of delivery based on the size and weight of the products ordered. If the delivery price shown in the checkout is dearer than expected for your location, please contact us and on some occasions it may be possible to find a cheaper delivery service for you.

Our postage and packing charges work on a sliding scale, in an effort to be fair to all. This scale is designed to work on order value, product size and how heavy an item or items are. Our postage and packing charges range from £0.00 to £15.00 per item. The postage you will be charged per order can be viewed in the basket once the country has been selected.

Certain products have a fixed postage cost which is added to the overall delivery cost. A product may have a fixed delivery cost due to a special offer on a product, or because the size is too big or weight too heavy making it difficult to deliver. Products with fixed postage costs have the postage displayed on the individual product page.

Philip Morris & Son periodically offer free postage on some items or orders over a certain value. Free postage is for the initial order only and is only available to selected UK destinations that couriers do not charge additional fees for such as the Highlands. In cases where these orders are returned to us for reasons other than a fault, Philip Morris & Son may charge a handling fee per consignment, to cover administration costs or a re-delivery charge where applicable. If you would like to make alternative arrangements for delivery please contact us directly.

We endeavour to dispatch all parcels as soon as we possibly can. If you need your order quickly, drop us a message and we will do whatever we can to ensure your items are dispatched as early as possible. Alternatively, jump onto the live chat or give us a buzz on the telephone and one of our helpful customer service representatives will be more than happy to go the extra mile for you.

22. Philip Morris & Son and the Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Directive (WEEE Directive) Directive 2002/96/EC

Please help us to minimise the effect we have on the environment by recycling your waste electrical goods. To see the Philip Morris & Son policy on recycling your old electrical products, please see below. For advice on all aspects of recycling, including recycling of waste electronic equipment.

WEEE Compliance Statement
Helping to recycle your electrical equipment.
Why are we involved?
Recycling facilities are now available for all customers at which you can deposit your old electrical products. This is a requirement under UK and European legislation (The Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment – or WEEE – Directive).

The aim of the legislation is to:

  • Make good use of the materials that make up old electrical equipment by recycling rather than disposing in landfill; and
  • Prevent the negative environmental effects of sending often hazardous electrical equipment to landfill.

As a conscientious business, Philip Morris & Son has chosen to group together with other retailers in joining the ‘Distributor Take Back Scheme’. Through this scheme, we have paid towards the provision of improved recycling facilities for our customers.

How does this work in practice?
Customers will be able to take any old electrical equipment to participating civic amenity sites (often known as ‘household waste recycling centres’) run by their local councils. Please remember that this equipment will be further handled during the recycling process, so please be considerate when depositing your equipment.
Funding collected through the Distributor Take Back Scheme has been distributed between all Local Authorities in the UK to ensure the provision of improved recycling facilities. Producers of these products will then ensure that deposited items are taken away and recycled.

Where to dispose of electrical equipment?
Wherever practical, old electrical waste should not be disposed of with your household waste.

Other information
UK households dispose of over 1.2 million tonnes of electrical and electronic waste every year. This is the equivalent of 150,000 double decker buses and would be enough to fill the new Wembley Stadium 6 times over.

Much of the UK’s electronic waste ends up in landfill sites, where toxins put communities at risk. Failure to segregate any type of recyclable material in the home will usually result in items being disposed of in a landfill site (buried in the ground in the UK) or being incinerated. To remind you to recycle, all new electrical products are marked with a crossed out wheeled bin symbol.

23. Competitions

Competitions are open to UK residents, 18 years old and over only. The closing date is stated on the competition post, no entries after this are accepted. This competition is not open to any employees of Philip Morris & Son. The winner will be drawn at random, only 1 entry per person is counted unless otherwise stated. Prizes cannot be exchanged for a cash alternative or gift voucher. Philip Morris & Son reserves the right to cancel or close the competition early without reason. If the winner returns their prize, this is paid for by the winner. Philip Morris & Son doesn’t hold any responsibility for entries not received for any reason. The winner will be contacted by the @philipmorrisandson account only and you will never be asked for bank details, please be aware of any fake accounts. Competition entries must comply with all conditions on the original post to be a valid entry. E&OE

24. Loyalty Scheme

We use Super Payments to power our loyalty scheme, each time you make a purchase you will earn money off your next purchase. To collect and redeem this, you must login through Super Payments and select Super Payments as the payment option at the checkout. You must use the same email address that you used to create your account within superpayments to checkout with us. The percentage value of money earned on the loyalty scheme may flucturate. We reserve the right to withdraw or transfer any outstanding balances in the loyalty scheme without notice.
