Corporate Gifting Terms And Conditions

 Terms and Conditions of Sale 
Sending gifts on behalf of a Company, Charity, or other Organisation 

 

1.      Introduction

These Terms of Purchase set out how you (the User) can make purchases from us in order to send gifts on behalf of a company, charity or organisation. Please read them carefully. We pride ourselves in providing a high level of customer service and ensuring that you are clear in respect of all of your rights relating to your purchase. In continuing your purchase you will be deemed to have accepted these terms in full without variation. 

We are Not Another Bunch of Flowers Ltd, a company with our registered office at Stable Lodge, Lewes Road, Lindfield, West Sussex, RH16 2LF under registered number 13211024. In these terms any reference to “Us, We, Our” is a reference to the limited company.

We are based in the UK and our Terms of Purchase are governed by UK legislation. The Terms of Use for our Site and our Privacy Statement can be found on separate pages. 

It is always our aim that you will be fully satisfied with your purchase. Should you have any questions about your purchase we will be happy to assist. 

 

2.      Placing an Order and Payment 

We are experienced in providing luxury bespoke gift boxes which contain hand-picked items at a price to suit your needs. Our corporate gifting service allows you to create a product which is personal to you and not available to purchase anywhere else. You can select the items within each gift box and add a personalised message and in some instances personalise the products too. 

In order to place your order you should complete the ‘Make An Enquiry’ form on our website.

Once your order is received, we will issue an invoice to you setting out the total sum due, and modes of payment (debit card, credit card or BACS). If you pay for your order with a corporate credit card, a 2% charge will be added to the balance, as detailed on the invoice. 

The date we receive full payment from you is the ‘Confirmation Date’. This is the date on which your order is agreed and we cannot guarantee that changes can be made after this date and we reserve the right to charge additional fees for changes made after the Confirmation Date.

Deposits  

If you want your order to be dispatched in 28 days or more following the date we receive your order, an invoice will be issued to you setting out the balance due for payment. You can pay the balance in full or pay in instalments.

A non-refundable deposit of 50% of the total sum due is required in order for the order to be placed. The remaining 50% balance must be paid no later than 28 days prior to the dispatch date. 

Your order is not confirmed, and your dispatch date is not secured, until we receive the 50% non-refundable deposit. If you fail to pay the 50% balance by no later than 28 days before the dispatch date, you risk losing your dispatch date, and may have to re-book it. 

If you want your order dispatched in less than 28 days following the date we receive your order, an invoice will be issued to you, setting out the balance due for immediate payment. The balance must be paid in full to secure the Confirmation Date. Payments are non-refundable, subject to your statutory rights detailed below.  Your order is not confirmed, and your dispatch date is not secured, until we receive the balance in full. 

If you want your order dispatched between 1st – 31st December, you must pay the balance in full by 15

November. If, however, you submit an order after 15 November, for dispatch between 1st – 31st December, you must pay the invoice within 3 days of the date on the invoice, to secure the Confirmation Date. 

All invoices will be sent to you via email.  

 

3.      Booking Slot / Dispatch Date

You cannot book your booking slot and dispatch date until you have secured your Confirmation Date i.e., once you have paid your 50% non-refundable deposit if your intended dispatch date is in 28 days or more, or once you have paid the balance in full if you want your order to be dispatched in less than 28 days. Your order will not be dispatched until the balance has been paid in full. 

During peak times such as Christmas and Easter, to avoid disappointment, we recommend that you secure your Confirmation Date as soon as possible as booking slots and dispatch dates are booked up quickly. 

 

4.      Pricing

All prices are as quoted on the website for each item. Prices include VAT. The product pricing also excludes delivery charges which will be added to the total amount itemised on your invoice. 

We may change our prices at any time, but changes will not affect any order in respect of which we have already sent you an order confirmation.

It is always possible, despite our best efforts, that some products listed on our Site may be incorrectly priced. We will normally check prices as part of our dispatch procedures so that, where a product's correct price is less than our stated price, we will charge you the lower amount when dispatching the product. If a product's correct price is higher than the price stated on our Site, we will contact you to inform you of the error and give you the option of either continuing your purchase of the product at the correct price or cancelling your order. If we are unable to contact you using the details you provided during the order process, we will treat your order as having been cancelled and notify you in writing. We are under no obligation to provide any product to you at an incorrect (lower) price if the pricing error is obvious and unmistakeable and could have reasonably been recognised by you as a mis-pricing.

 

5.      Amendments to your order and Refunds

We appreciate that prior to your Confirmation Date you may wish to alter your order, and you can do so easily by contacting us at hello@notanotherbunchofflowers.com  Upon receipt of any requested alterations, we will check and confirm stock availability to you, and re-issue an invoice to you to reflect your amended order. Any amendments at this stage are free of charge, and we will work with you to create the best gift package for your occasion and budget. 

Once you have secured your Confirmation Date it may not be possible to amend your order, as we purchase the products on your behalf directly from various suppliers, who often require payment up front. Any amendment will be subject to stock availability, and you must notify us of your request no less than 28 days before the dispatch date. If stock availability is such that we can amend your order without incurring third party supplier charges, then we are happy to amend your order on one occasion. However, if any amendment to your order will result in us incurring third party supplier charges, we reserve the right to pass those charges on to you. We will, of course, discuss this with you in advance, before proceeding with any amendment to your order. In addition, if you want to amend your order on more than one occasion, any further amendments will also be subject to our reasonable administrative charges. 

If, after the Confirmation Date, you wish to add any additional products to the gift boxes and / or increase the number of gift boxes, this will depend on stock availability and / or whether the additional item(s) will fit in the gift boxes. Please contact us by email and we can check stock availability and issue an invoice to you if your request can be accommodated. 

 

It may not always be possible to increase the number of branded printed items such as bespoke gifts boxes and cards, particularly within 14 days of the dispatch date, but we will endeavour to meet your request. 

 

If, following the Confirmation Date, you want to reduce the number of gift boxes you have ordered and / or remove any products from the gift boxes, we will not be able to refund any products we have purchased specifically for your order, or refund any products designed and personalised for your order – such as branded gift boxes. 

 

If, however, we have not purchased products specifically for your order, and your order does not include any bespoke product design or personalisation, we will reduce the number of gift boxes and / or products in line with your instructions if you submit your refund request no later than 14 days following the Confirmation Date. Any refund request received after this time may not be accommodated. 

 

If we can accommodate your gift box refund request, each cancelled gift box will incur a £5.00 + VAT admin fee. For example, if you order 20 gift boxes and reduce this to 10 gift boxes, you will be required to pay the fee for the 10 gift boxes you are purchasing, and £5 + VAT per cancelled gift box i.e. £50 + VAT.

 

If we can accommodate your request to remove any products from your gift boxes, each product will incur a £1.00 + VAT admin fee. For example, if you order 20 gift boxes and want to remove one produce from each gift box, you will be required to pay 20 x £1.00 + VAT i.e. £20 + VAT.

 

6.      Stock availability  

Whilst stock availability is correct at the time of the initial quote and / or your order, stock is only allocated and confirmed once you have secured your Confirmation Date i.e., once you have paid your 50% non-refundable deposit if your intended dispatch date is in 28 days or more, or once you have paid the balance in full if you want your order to be dispatched in less than 28 days. 

During peak times such as Christmas and Easter, stock availability may be reduced, and so we recommend that you secure your Confirmation Date as soon as possible to avoid disappointment. 

 

7.      Inclusion of non-NABOF sourced products 

We are happy to include products sent directly to us from you or another supplier subject to payment of a small administrative fee of 50p + VAT, per item and per gift box. Such administrative fees cover the cost of packaging, handling, and storing these products. 

Any additional items to be included must be provided no later than 28 days before dispatch. We cannot guarantee that any items provided after this date will be added to your gift boxes.

 

8.      Dietary Requirements 

We can offer product substitutes for those with dietary requirements if notified. Such notification must be provided no later than 28 days before the dispatch date, or at the time of order, if the dispatch date is in less than 28 days. 

We will send the boxes as instructed by you. We are not responsible for anyone with an allergy or dietary requirement receiving a gift box containing unsuitable products based on your product choices.   

We do not manufacture the products and are not responsible for the labelling of the products including, but not limited to, any dietary information. 

 

9.      Sale Of Alcohol

By placing an order which contains alcoholic products you are confirming that you and the recipients are over the age of 18 and based in the UK.

 

10.   Recipient details 

You are required to provide us with an Excel spreadsheet detailing the names and addresses of all gift box recipients. Please send this information to hello@notanotherbunchofflowers.com The recipient’s name and each line of their address should be in separate columns. 

The recipient’s name, first line of their address, city, and postcode, are compulsory fields. 

Such information must be provided no later than 14 days prior to the dispatch date, or at the time of ordering, if the order is to be dispatched in less than 14 days.  Failure to provide the information in the specified format by the due date, may result in the orders not being dispatched on the agreed dispatch date. You will then be responsible for re-booking the dispatch date with us. You cannot re-book the dispatch date if you have not provided the recipient details to us in the specified format. The spreadsheet containing your recipients’ addresses will be electronically uploaded onto the Royal Mail or DPD system (dependent on the shipping mode you have chosen). Please refer to their privacy policy for further information. 

Once the recipient information is uploaded to the Royal Mail or DPD system, we will permanently delete the spreadsheet you provided which contains the recipient information. We will not upload any recipient information to our databases, use this information for marketing purposes, or share the information with any third parties.

Please refer to our Privacy Policy for further information.
