- HOW TO MAKE AN ORDER AND HOW IT IS PROCESSED
4.1. Compiling your Order: Once you have selected the Products you wish to order from the Website and provided the other required information, you will be given the opportunity to submit your Order by clicking or selecting the “proceed”, “place my order” or similar button. It is important that you check all the information that you enter and correct any errors before clicking or selecting this button; once you do so you will be entering into a contract with the Company and errors cannot be corrected (subject to paragraph 4.2. below). Where you have not logged in or created an account previously, then you may have the option to continue with your Order as a guest. By electing to complete your Order as a guest, you are agreeing that Bocconcini Bakery Ltd will create a temporary Bocconcini Bakery Ltd guest account for you which will, unless otherwise stated in these Website Terms, be accessible only (a) from the device which you use to place the Order; and (b) for a period of up to twelve months following the date of the Order. Your access to your temporary guest account will expire on the “Expiry Date” which shall be the earlier of (i) the date falling six months after the date on which you last accessed the temporary guest account; (ii) the date falling twelve months after the date on which the temporary guest account was created; and (iii) the date on which you logout of your temporary guest account, or clear the cache on the device which you used when the temporary guest account was created.
4.2. Amending or cancelling your Order: Once you have submitted your Order and your payment has been authorised, you will not be entitled to change or cancel your Order, nor will you be entitled to a refund (please refer to paragraphs 4.4 and 4.3 for details of the process relating to rejected Orders and refunding of payment). If you wish to change or cancel your Order, you may contact our Customer Support team as described in paragraph 6.3 and they will attempt to cancel the order if it has not been dispatched to our couriers. If it is not possible for our customer care team to communicate a cancellation with our packing team before it is handed to the courier then your order will not be cancelled.
4.3. Payment authorisation: Where any payment you make is not authorised, your Order will not be processed.
4.4. Delivery of your Order: We will contact you in order to decide your delivery date. Every effort will then be made to dispatch your order to ensure it arrives on your chosen delivery date. However, if there are mitigating circumstances in which your delivery cannot be made on your chosen date every effort will be made to contact you in advance to allow you the opportunity to cancel the order or change the date of delivery.
4.5. Incorrect delivery address: If the address that has been entered into the checkout results in a delay to your delivery, or a return to our facility, or destroyed then the order will have been deemed to have been an error by the customer and will not be entitled to a refund.
4.6. Incorrect items received: In the unlikely event that you receive incorrect or missing items from your order you need to contact us within 24 hours to report this to. Failure to report within 24 hours will be deemed as full acceptance of the order as the items are perishable and should be checked upon receipt.
4.7. Damaged items or orders received: In the unlikely event that you receive a damaged item or order, you need to contact us within 24 hours to report this to, including photo evidence of described damage. Failure to report within 24 hours and/or failure to evidence the damage will be deemed as full acceptance of the order as the items are perishable and should be checked upon receipt.
4.8 Your Responsibilities Once the pizza bases have left our factory, we no longer accept responsibility for them. As a retail customer, pizzas are sent fresh. As soon as they arrive they must be stored immediately in the fridge or in the freezer. They will last for up to 5 days in the fridge or up to 10 months in the freezer. They must be consumed before this time frame or then disposed of properly.
All of our pizza bases are guaranteed gluten free. Once they have left our factory we can no longer control how the pizzas are stored and so it is your responsibility to ensure they do not come into contact with any gluten or product containing gluten.
- PRICE AND PAYMENT
5.1. VAT and delivery costs: Prices will be as quoted on the Website. These prices may include VAT but may exclude delivery costs. These will be added to the total amount due where applicable.
5.2. Incorrect pricing: If the correct price for an Order is higher than the price stated on the Website, we will normally contact you before the relevant Order is dispatched. In such an event we are not under any obligation to ensure that the Order is provided to you at the incorrect lower price or to compensate you in respect of incorrect pricing.
5.3. Payment methods: Payment for Orders must be made by an accepted credit or debit card through the Website.
5.4. Card payments: Please note that from time to time there may be delays with the processing of card payments and transactions; this may result in payments taking up to sixty (60) days to be deducted from your bank account or charged to your credit or debit card.
5.5. Credit and discount vouchers: A credit or discount may apply to your Order if you use a promotional voucher or code recognised by the Website and endorsed by Bocconcini Bakery, and you pay for any balance by credit or debit card. Please refer to our Voucher Terms & Conditions for the full terms and conditions applicable to the use of credit and discount vouchers. Please note that because of standard banking procedures, your bank or card issuer will initially “ring-fence” the full amount of the Order (before any credit or discount) in your account for between 3 to 5 working days (or longer, depending on your bank or card issuer), and this amount will therefore be unavailable in your account for that period. The credit or discount will be applied at the time your bank or card issuer transfers the funds for your Order to us, at which point the credit or discounted amount will not be transferred to us and will instead be released by your bank or card issuer back into your available balance. You acknowledge and agree that we will be responsible or liable to you in relation to this delay by your bank or card issuer in the release of funds back into your account. Where you use the Website as a guest, any account credit which you accrue against your temporary guest account can only be redeemed for an Order placed via your temporary guest account and cannot be transferred for use on another account.
5.6. Rejected Orders: Because of standard banking procedures, once you have submitted an Order that you are paying for by credit or debit card and your payment has been authorised, your bank or card issuer will “ring-fence” the full amount of your Order. If your Order is subsequently rejected or cancelled for any other reason, your bank or card issuer will not transfer the funds for the Order to us, and will instead release the relevant amount back into your available balance. However, this may take between 3 to 5 working days (or longer, depending on your bank or card issuer). You acknowledge and agree that neither we will be responsible or liable to you in relation to this delay by your bank or card issuer in the release of funds back into your account.
- CUSTOMER SUPPORT
6.1. General: Customer care is extremely important to us. Subject to paragraphs 6.5 and 11, our Customer Support Team will therefore try to assist you where possible if you have any problems with your Order. You can contact our Customer Support team by visiting the “Contact Us” page and completing the online form or by calling the telephone number shown on the Website.
6.2. Questions about your Order: If your Order is taking longer than expected or you have any other problems with your Order, you can contact our Customer Support Team as described above and one of our Customer Support Advisers will be happy to assist you.
6.3. Changing or cancelling your Order: If you wish to change or cancel your Order after it has been submitted and payment has been authorised, you may contact our Customer Support Team as described above and they will attempt to contact the Packing Team in order to communicate your requests. However, there is no guarantee that we will be able to cancel the order before it has been dispatched and handed over to our couriers.
6.4. Complaints or feedback: In the event that you are dissatisfied with the quality of any Products or the service provided by the Company, please consider providing feedback in the form of ratings, comments and reviews on the Website (“Reviews”) to reflect your experience. Do we have it? Or can we add? The Reviews are an important part of our quality control process.
6.5. Compensation: If you are dissatisfied with the quality of any Products or the service provided by the Company and wish to seek a refund, a proportionate price reduction or any other compensation, you should contact the Customer Support Team within 24 hours of receiving your Order and one of our Customer Support Advisers will work with you to resolve your issue. Please note, however, that requests for refund or compensation due to not being available to receive your order, or due to failing to properly refrigerate your order after receiving your order, or for any issue involving making up and cooking/using your items will not result in any refund and any compensation which may be granted by the Customer Support Team will be discretionary and be provided in the form of a credit against a future order only.

REFUNDS
Refunds
Our refund and returns policy reflects the fact that we sell perishable food items. We therefore do not allow returns of goods that are delivered as advertised and within 48 hours of being dispatched from our facility. This is because they will no longer be in a saleable condition.
Should you require a refund on your order we will happily refund you right up until the point that a shipping label has been created on all perishable items. After this time a refund will not be possible unless your order has failed to reach you within 48 hours of leaving our facility.
If you wish to return an item that is not perishable you must contact us before returning it. Items may be returned up to 14 days after the date of receipt and returned within 14 days after that, provided they are returned in the same condition with which they were received, any packaging remains unopened and no item has been used. Any item that you wish to return should be done so at your own cost.
For the avoidance of doubt failing to reach you we means; either the delivery was not made at all by our delivery partners; Delivery was attempted more than 48 hours after being collected by our delivery partners; or was delivered to an address that was not as per the delivery address on our system, unless it was altered by the customer during transit.
We would also ask you to consider your purchase very carefully. Every refund we make costs our family run business money as we do not receive a refund on the card processing fees from the card companies and banks. So whilst we would love you to become a regular customer of ours, please consider your purchase carefully before clicking “complete order” at the end of the checkout.
If a refund has been approved by us it can take up to seven days to show in your bank account or on your credit card.
Returns
As we sell chilled perishable food items we cannot accept returns for any reason whatsoever.
DELIVERY OPTIONS:
