Orders

How can I place an order?

Shopping with Romiley Pet Stop is simple.

Browse the products available on our website, select the items you would like to purchase, add them to your basket, and proceed to checkout.

During checkout, you will be asked to provide the information required to complete your order, including your delivery and payment details.

Once your order has been successfully submitted, you should receive an order confirmation where applicable.

Can I change an order after placing it?

If you need to make a change to your order, please contact us as soon as possible.

We will make reasonable efforts to help if your order has not yet entered the packing or dispatch process.

However, once an order has been processed or handed to the delivery provider, we may no longer be able to change:

  • The products ordered

  • Product quantities

  • Delivery details

  • The selected shipping method

If your order has already been dispatched, you may need to follow our Returns & Refund Policy instead.

Can I cancel my order?

If you wish to cancel an order, please contact us promptly.

Where the order has not yet been processed or dispatched, we may be able to cancel it.

If the parcel has already been dispatched, immediate cancellation may no longer be possible.

Eligible online purchases may also be subject to cancellation rights under applicable UK consumer law.

Please see our Returns & Refund Policy for further information.

How will I know if my order has been received?

After successfully placing an order, you may receive an order confirmation by email.

Please check the information shown in your confirmation carefully.

If you notice an error, contact us as soon as possible.

Shipping & Delivery

Where are orders dispatched from?

Orders from Romiley Pet Stop are processed and dispatched from within the United Kingdom.

We currently deliver within the United Kingdom unless another destination is specifically made available through our website.

How quickly are orders processed?

Orders are normally prepared for dispatch within:

1–3 business days

Business days are generally Monday to Friday, excluding UK public and bank holidays.

Orders submitted during weekends or public holidays will normally begin processing on the next working day.

Available delivery services may depend on the order and delivery location.

Does the delivery estimate include processing time?

No.

The estimated delivery period normally begins after your order has been dispatched.

For example, an order may first require 1–3 business days for processing before the courier delivery period starts.

Are delivery dates guaranteed?

Delivery dates are estimates rather than guaranteed arrival dates.

Unexpected delays may occur because of:

  • Courier disruption

  • Severe weather

  • Seasonal demand

  • Transport problems

  • Other circumstances outside our reasonable control

Please refer to our Shipping & Delivery Policy for complete information.

Will I receive tracking information?

Where tracking is available for your chosen delivery service, tracking details may be provided after your order has been dispatched.

Please note that tracking information can sometimes take a short period to become active in the courier's system.

What should I do if my parcel is delayed?

If your parcel has not arrived within the expected delivery period and appears significantly delayed, please contact us.

Provide your order information so that we can review the shipment and, where appropriate, make enquiries with the delivery provider.

What happens if my parcel is lost?

If a shipment appears to have been lost in transit, we may need to investigate the matter with the relevant courier.

Once the circumstances have been established, we will provide an appropriate solution in accordance with our policies and applicable consumer rights.

Returns & Refunds

What is your standard return period?

Under our standard returns policy, customers may request an eligible return within 30 days of receiving their order.

Products should generally be:

  • Unused

  • In a condition suitable for resale

  • Returned with original packaging where reasonably possible

  • Complete with any accessories or components originally supplied

Some products may be excluded from standard returns where permitted by law.

Your statutory rights relating to faulty, damaged, incorrect, or misdescribed goods are not affected.

How do I request a return?

Before returning a product, please contact Romiley Pet Stop.

When contacting us, provide:

  • Your order number

  • The product you wish to return

  • The reason for the return

  • Any relevant information about the issue

Once your request has been reviewed, we will provide the appropriate return instructions.

Who pays for return postage?

For a standard return where the product is not faulty, the customer is generally responsible for return shipping costs unless we confirm otherwise.

Where a product is faulty, damaged, incorrect, or not as described, return costs will be considered in accordance with the circumstances and applicable UK consumer law.

How long does a refund take?

Refunds are normally assessed after the returned product has been received and inspected.

If your refund is approved, it will generally be issued to the original payment method.

After we process the refund, your bank, card issuer, or payment provider may require additional time before the funds appear in your account.

Can I exchange an item?

If you would like an exchange, please contact us.

Exchanges are subject to product availability.

Depending on the circumstances, we may ask you to return the original item and place a new order for the replacement.

What should I do if I receive a damaged or incorrect product?

Please contact us as soon as reasonably possible.

We may ask you to provide:

  • Your order number

  • Details of the problem

  • Photographs of the product

  • Photographs of the packaging where appropriate

We will review the matter and provide an appropriate remedy where necessary.

Payments & Billing

What payment methods do you accept?

Payment methods available through our checkout may include:

  • American Express

  • Apple Pay

  • Diners Club

  • Discover

  • Google Pay

  • Maestro

  • Mastercard

  • Shop Pay

  • UnionPay

  • Visa

The payment methods displayed at checkout represent the options currently available for your transaction.

What currency do you use?

Unless clearly stated otherwise, prices on romileypetstop.co.uk are displayed in:

Pounds Sterling (GBP)

If your payment account is held in another currency, your bank or payment provider may apply its own exchange rate or conversion charges.

Is my payment information secure?

Payments are processed through trusted third-party payment service providers.

Where payment information is entered directly into a payment provider's secure system, Romiley Pet Stop does not receive or store your complete card details.

Why was my payment declined?

A payment may be declined for several reasons, including:

  • Incorrect billing information

  • Insufficient funds

  • An expired payment method

  • Security restrictions

  • Fraud prevention checks

  • A decision made by your bank or payment provider

If your payment is declined, please check your details or contact your payment provider.

Products

Are the product photographs completely accurate?

We make reasonable efforts to present products as accurately as possible.

However, there may occasionally be minor differences between an online image and the actual product.

These differences can result from:

  • Screen or device settings

  • Lighting used in photography

  • Manufacturer packaging updates

  • Product design changes

  • Colour variations

Product images should therefore be treated as a helpful representation of the product rather than a guarantee that every visual detail will be identical.

How do I know whether a product is available?

Product availability is normally shown on the relevant product page.

Stock information may change as purchases are made, so placing a product in your shopping basket does not necessarily reserve it.

In rare circumstances, a product may become unavailable after an order has been placed.

If this happens, we will take appropriate steps and refund any payment relating to an item we are unable to supply where required.

How do I know whether a product is suitable for my pet?

Please review product descriptions, manufacturer instructions, sizing information, feeding guidance, warnings, and other information supplied with the product.

Suitability may depend on your pet's:

  • Species

  • Breed

  • Size

  • Weight

  • Age

  • Dietary requirements

  • Allergies

  • Individual needs

If you are uncertain whether a particular food, supplement, grooming product, or other item is appropriate for your animal, you should seek advice from a qualified veterinary professional where appropriate.

Can product packaging change?

Yes.

Manufacturers may occasionally update:

  • Packaging

  • Branding

  • Labels

  • Product designs

  • Ingredients

  • Specifications

This means the packaging you receive may occasionally differ slightly from the image shown online.

Where product composition is important, customers should review the latest information printed on the product packaging before use.

Customer Accounts

Do I need an account to place an order?

Where guest checkout is available, you may be able to complete an order without creating a customer account.

If account functionality is offered on our website, creating an account may provide convenient features such as viewing order information or managing certain customer details.

The checkout options displayed on the website will indicate what is currently available.

What should I do if I have trouble accessing my account?

If customer accounts are available and you experience difficulty accessing yours, first try the password recovery or reset options provided on the website.

If the problem continues, please contact us for assistance.

For security reasons, we may need to verify certain information before helping with account-related requests.
