In the case of a Reward item not being available, The Administrator will contact You within 7 days of placing the order and offer a replacement item of similar value. If You do not wish to accept the replacement item, the points value will be re-credited.
The Administrator reserves the right to remove or include any reward from the range at its discretion and Participants may not rely upon the continued availability of a reward category or reward item. The Administrator will honour any Rewards that have already been ordered by a Participant prior to any price alterations.
The delivery of reward items will be made within 28 days of placement of order unless otherwise stated on the website or by email communication.
The delivery of all reward items will be made to the address as supplied by You at the time of order. The delivery address for reward items should be to an address where the item can be signed for. If there is nobody available to sign for receipt of the goods then the delivery company will usually leave a card with contact details for You to arrange delivery again. Where a rearranged delivery is made and there is nobody present to sign for the item the supplier may at their discretion charge for re-delivery costs and this will be passed on to You.
Delivery of damaged items must be refused and items found to be damaged on delivery or after opening packaging must be advised within 48 hours to the Administrator’s customer service team to enable timely follow up with the third party supplier or courier and arrange for a replacement to be shipped. Couriers will generally not accept liability for damages or lost items beyond this time frame.
Where a signed-for delivery is made to You but delivery is not possible for whatever reason, The Administrator will arrange for re-delivery at the earliest possible opportunity but there may be charges incurred by You from the courier or similar service provider for re-attempting delivery for which You shall be liable.
Returns of reward items will be arranged for You if there is a fault with the reward item or it is damaged provided the issue is reported to The Administrator within 48 hours of receipt. Couriers will not generally accept liability for damages or lost items beyond this time frame.
If You wish to discuss or organise a return, exchange or refund of any item, please contact us within 48 hours of receipt.
You acknowledge that some reward items are not returnable and non-refundable (i.e. customised items, made to order, perishable goods such as flowers/food or personal items such as jewellery or cosmetics).
Where faults develop after 14 days from receipt, these will be subject to manufacturer warranties.
From time to time the retailers who provide vouchers or gift cards may experience temporary delays or stock shortages. In the event that delays will impact on the Administrator’s ability to deliver the order as scheduled, the Administrator will advise You and discuss appropriate actions.
In the event of a gift card or voucher being lost or stolen in transit, The Administrator will investigate whether the card or voucher has been used.
Where a Participant reports a voucher or gift card as lost or stolen, You acknowledge that a fee is deducted from the balance of the card for the issuance of a replacement. The Administrator is not liable for any refusal of a retailer to deactivate or provide credit or replacement of a lost or stolen gift card or voucher. Once a gift card or voucher is delivered, You assume all risk and liabilities for the gift cards and voucher and no refunds will be made.
The programme is being run as a third party with no involvement from the participants employers. No cash rewards are available during the course of the programme.
