2.4 Displayed Prices are subject to alteration without notice.
2.5 By making a deposit payment you automatically confer on us the right to take balance payments from the same card details that were used to pay the deposit. We will only use this method if we have exhausted usual methods to communicate with you to give you the opportunity to choose another payment method. We may use this method at anytime to recover an outstanding debt.
- Rights for you to cancel your contract
3.1 You may cancel your contract with us for the goods you order at any time up to the end of the seventh working day from the date you ordered goods. You do not need to give us any reason for cancelling your contract nor will you have to pay any penalty.
*In the event that the goods ordered are manufactured against your order or are bespoke in any way and you cancel the contract:
In Accordance with the Distance Selling Regulations – “Bespoke or Special Order” products cannot be cancelled and will not receive a refund. We offer the following Exceptions:
Cancellation within 7 days of the order being placed will incur no cost (provided the goods have not been delivered).
Cancellation after 7 days and up-to 14 days will incur any costs placed on us by the manufacturer with the balance of any payment being refunded to you or owed by you within 30 days. Cancellation from 15 days after date of order is not possible and goods must be paid for in full.
Except as above: Unless agreed in advance deposit payments are non-refundable
3.2 Except as for Bespoke products, to cancel your contract you must notify us in writing quoting your order reference number.
3.3 Except as for Bespoke products, if you have received the goods before you cancel then you must send the goods back to our contact address or an address of our choosing, at our discretion, at your own cost and risk. If you cancel your contract but we have already processed the goods for delivery you must not unpack the goods when they are received by you and you must send the goods back to us at our contact address at your own cost and risk as soon as possible. You may by notice ask us to collect the goods from you at your cost at the price to be determined by us. When we or our suppliers have dispatched the goods, the goods are deemed to have been delivered.
3.4 Except as for Bespoke products, once you have notified us that you are cancelling your contract any sum debited to us from your credit / debit card will be re-credited to your account as soon as possible and in any event within 30 days of your cancellation. If you did not pay by credit / debit card you will be refunded by cheque as soon as possible and in any event within 30 days of your cancellation PROVIDED THAT the goods in question are returned by you and received by us or our supplier, entirely at our discretion, in the condition they were in when delivered to you. If you do not return the goods delivered to you or do not pay the costs of delivery we shall be entitled to deduct the direct costs of recovering the goods from the amount to be re-credited to you.
3.5 Restocking Fees – Goods ordered specially, incorrect or correct can be only returned to the manufacturer, if agreed in advance with the customer service department where a re-stocking charge of 20% will apply. If goods are returned with obvious signs of use, missing any included items/paperwork or packaging, a minimum restocking fee of up to 20% plus associated costs will apply. Goods returned outside the 14 day return window will also be subject to restocking fee. This is esecially applied to Hot Tubs and Swim Spas, where they have been ordered by the customer and have arrived in to us and delivery/pick has not been completed. Endless Pools are fully bespoke and cannot be returned and therefore carry a 100% restocking fee.
3.6 It should be noted that we always comply with the Distance Selling Regulations. It should also be noted that any goods that are manufactured against your order or are bespoke in anyway – including colour fall outside the remit of the Distance Selling Regulations.

Distance Selling Regulations are not applicable to business customers

4.1.3 one or more of the goods you ordered was listed at an incorrect price due to a typographical error or an error in the pricing information received by us from our supplier; or

4.1.5 Supplier being unable or unwilling to supply the goods owing to political, military or any other reasons; or
