Modifications to terms
MUM's Office reserves the right to modify the Terms from time to time. We will keep the customer informed of these changes by posting a notification on the website Homepage. The customer's sole recourse will be to discontinue use of the website. Continued use of the website indicates the customer's understanding and acceptance of the modified Terms.
Ordering
You can buy products from us online, or by telephone. Soon after an order is placed, you will receive a Paypal email confirmation for the transaction amount. This means your bank has authorised the transaction, but does not guarantee our acceptance of the order. If we accept your order, we will send you an email confirmation once the goods have been despatched. Orders will only be processed and shipped if MUM's Office deems an order complete. An order is deemed complete if all relevant information requested throughout the order process has been entered correctly and the terms and conditions agreed. If the order is deemed incomplete, MUM's Office will send an e-mail to the Customer requesting the missing information. When the information is received by MUM's Office, the order will be deemed complete.
If you have placed an order but then wish to change or cancel it, please contact us as soon as you can, as orders move rapidly through to our warehouse. We will try our best to make any changes but we cannot guarantee that we will be able to do so as the order may already have been processed. In such cases, you may have to wait until you receive the order and then follow the normal Returns procedures.
Contract Formation and Governing Law
No contract will exist between MUM's Office and the customer until and unless MUM's Office despatches the Customer's goods. Acceptance will be deemed complete and effectively communicated at this time. Ownership of the goods will pass to the customer on receipt of payment and despatch of the goods from MUM's Office. Any and all contracts formed will be interpreted, construed and enforced in all respects in accordance with the laws of England and Wales. MUM's Office and the customer irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the English Courts.

DELIVERY
We aim to dispatch orders received Monday to Friday by 2.30pm the same day. Orders are delivered by First Class post and Royal Mail aim to deliver the next working day including Saturday. However sometimes it may take longer and we just have to be patient and wait for Royal Mail. At busy times of the year and with Royal Mail's industrial action, we are finding that some deliveries are taking a long time to arrive. If you have not received your order please try your neighbours or local Royal Mail sorting office, in case there is a parcel waiting for collection and the card has gone astray. If you have not received your order within 15 working days, we can dispatch the order again or offer a full refund. For Royal Mail's policy on lost items please refer to their website: www.royalmail.com.
We also offer UK next day delivery (Monday to Friday) using the courier DPD. DPD will send you an email and a text message giving you a 1 hour window for estimated time of delivery. We must receive your order by 1pm (Monday - Thursday) to use this service. Orders received after 1pm on Thursday and before 1pm on Friday will be delivered on Monday. Orders received after 1pm on Friday and before 1pm on Monday will be delivered on Tuesday! These are normal working days and do not include Bank Holidays.
Please note that our couriers will not deliver to PO Box addresses.
We can only offer UK delivery as Brexit and international shipping rates have got the better of us. Our products are available from Amazon.co.uk which may offer international delivery and a limited selection is also available from JohnLewis.co.uk.
