Terms and Conditions

Payment

We accept payment by most major credit or debit cards registered throughout the world. Please ensure that the expiry date of your credit/debit card is after the anticipated dispatch date of your order. Payment will be debited from your account at check out, and if your payment card has expired, we will be unable to take payment and fulfil your order. We regret that we are unable to accept payment by cheque, cash, Gift Vouchers, High Street Vouchers or any other form of payment other than credit or debit cards.

Validation Checks

All credit and charge card holders are subject to validation checks and authorisation by the card issuer. If the issuer of your payment card refuses to authorise payment to us, we will not be liable for any delay or non-delivery. In addition, in the interests of preventing fraudulent use of credit, debit and charge cards, Gemini Supplies (Scotland) Ltd will validate the names, addresses and other information supplied during the order process against commercially available records (e.g. Electoral Roll data, Credit Reference Services). A third party may also be instructed to complete these checks. By ordering from the Gemini Supplies (Scotland) Ltd website you consent to such checks being made. We may need to contact you by letter, telephone or email to verify details before we are able to process and dispatch your order or we may be unable to accept your order. Any information given may be disclosed to a registered Credit Reference Agency which may keep a record of the information. All information provided will be treated in accordance with the Data Protection Act 1998. These measures are taken as extra protection for you, to ensure your online shopping experience with us is as safe and secure as possible.

The majority of card issuers cover all the charges that may result from unauthorised use of your credit card or debit cards, but some may limit your liability to £50. If you believe your credit or debit card has been subject to unauthorised use you should contact your card issuer without delay.

Delivery Times

You can choose from our Standard Delivery Service or our Express Delivery Option. Standard delivery of stocked items is normally within 3-4 working days, our Express Option is for Next Working Day via our Courier (due to the current situation with couriers struggling to guarantee next day this may take 2 days, but 99% of the time it will be next working day).

Delivery times are calculated in working days - i.e. Monday to Friday inclusive (working days do not include weekends or National Bank Holidays). In case of Bank Holidays please allow an extra 2 working days.

For Express Delivery, orders must be placed by 12.00pm.

If you are out when the courier arrives the courier will leave a card with the contact number for you to call to arrange a suitable time for redelivery or for you to collect the goods from the local depot. Deliveries to non-Mainland UK, remote locations may take longer.
