  • Can I make an order over the phone?

    Yes, we love to hear from you and help you in any way possible.

This is for your security and designed to protect you as through the website you can complete all the required security checks and we would not ask for (or expect you to give) these private details to us. We are more than happy to guide you through the process over the phone and in no way want to discourage phone orders but want our customers to be aware of security issues.

    If you have been offered a discount over the phone you can still redeem this by entering a coupon code we’d be happy to give you.
