We accept credit card payment. We deliver nationwide (UK only)

We accept Visa and Mastercard. You may send your credit card information via phone, fax, or over our secure Internet site.
Shipping And Handling All items ordered from Alexanders Appliances Direct are delivered FREE (Mainland UK) on a "standard" delivery service. Addition charges may apply for "special" deliveries, ie. timed deliveries, express deliveries or deliveries to some outlying areas but this will always be made known before you order.

Wherever possible our appliances are delivered direct by the maker, or a specialist appliance delivery service. So you are guaranteed the best possible service. This costs us more than if we used a courier company, however in the unlikely event when the appliance was delivered it was damaged, the manufacturer would offer an immediate replacement* (something a courier usually couldn't). Please note we allow a maximum of twenty four hours for any damaged items to be reported after delivery.

Alexanders' contract with the courier/delivery company is for delivery to doorstep only. Deliveries taken indoors are at the descretion of the courier. Alexanders can not be liable for any damage caused to the product or property once the unit is taken and accepted beyond the doorstep.

All items must be checked and signed for on delivery by a responsible person. Very occasionally an item may be damaged on delivery, that is why it is essential to open all appliances and check for damage before signing the delivery note. Even if the packaging does not appear to be damaged in anyway, it is worth checking as goods can be damaged before they leave the factory. It will also avoid opening the packet on the day of installation to find the item damaged and not be able to install it. This can also be costly, as you may have booked an installer or engineer. Please note that any damage must be reported within twenty four hours of delivery, we will not accept any claims made after this time. (This does not affect your statutory rights)

Delivery Schedule All United Kingdom deliveries are FREE (Mainland UK Only) outside mainland a small charge may apply we will contact you prior to delivery to arrange a convenient despatch date.
Delivery is FREE to commercial premises there may be a small manufacturers charge for private address deliveries these charges are at present very rare but please check at time of order.
Most orders are delivered next day, however dates are given in good faith but are not the subject of any warranty or condition. No liability will attach to us if delivery periods or dates are not met, most orders are completed within 3 to four days. Feel free to contact us if you have any queries regrading this matter
Back Orders If your order is not in stock we will contact you right away for further instructions We do not charge for any items until they are ready to be shipped. Often within our range we can search for an alternative product which we will offer you (often at a further reduced price) or if you would rather wait then we will gladly back order the item for you
Tax Charges For orders made from the UK or the European Union, 17.5% VAT is added.
Credit Card Security Security is of upmost imporatance to us We no of no known documented case of credit card fraud using are secure shopping cart system All credit card numbers are encrypted in the software when the order is placed using 128 bit SSL encryption. They are only decrypted after they reach our computer. You can tell the pages are secure on a site because the address in the bar changes from being http://https//. You will also see the now widely recognised Golden Padlock in the bottom of your browser when it is time to submit your credit card details
That information is not held in clear text on any web site.


STILL NOT SURE?

If you still feel uncomfortable using the internet then please feel free to phone us direct and place the order with one of our trained sales team or we will happily send you a Pro-Forma invoice where on receipt of payment goods will be immediately despatched we cannot unfortunately offer cheque to driver facility as we often use outside carriers in order to keep our prices low
Guarantee We guarantee your satisfaction. All products are covered with a manufacturers full 1 year parts and labour warranty
many of the manufacturers we deal with offer 3 YEARS or even 5YEARS cover. All catering equipment items are brand new boxed products we may well offer you end of line items at special pricing but this will be made clear at the time of order. We do not offer a range of extended gurantees on our products as we do not believe thay offer good value in a recent survey it was shown that only 5% of warranties are claimed on during the 5 year cover
Please note Maestrowave and AFI products are l covered by warranty but are return to base warranty where the items will be repared or replaced
The warranties are for the products only and Alexanders are not responsible for any losses which may have been occured as a result of a failing appliance, ie the loss of food if a freezer should fail
We will however ensure the manufacturers respond as quickly as possible to hopefully minimize these type of problems
Reaching Us The internet can be a very impersonal way of conducting business. Often you are dealing with robots or computerized queing systems and with people who really dont care what you order and often if you order at all You send your personal details to an enonmous face with a PO box as a contact address
A lot of thought was gone into Alexanders Appliances Direct trading on the internet. For a long time previously we obtained orders the old fasioned way by knocking on customers doors mail outs cold calling (which we still do) many of our orders come from customers reccommedations which we are extremely grateful for
We want all of our customers to know we are only ever a phone call away 01264 333388 you can E-mail us on
sales@alexanders-direct.co.uk . or alternatively write to us address enclosed Are telephones are operated by highly trained staff who actually care that you get the right product for your requirements and are not commision based telephonists.
Privacy Policy As an Independent Catering Equipment Distributor, we take your privacy very seriously indeed which is why we NEVER supply your personal details to a third party and we only keep the minimum amount of information needed to conduct business with you.
If you have any concerns whatsoever in regard to privacy please contact us directly
Alexanders Appliances Direct only collect information by the customer at the time of placing the order and is relavant to completing the order
All information is collected lawfully and complies with the data protection act 1988
We would only very occasionally use the information for our own purpose for instance when sending out special offers or promotional lines which we think may be of interest to you. We add however this happens very rarely, if you do not wish to recieve this information then please tell our staff at the time of placing your order
Returns Policy Most orders are despatched for next day delivery but unfortunatly we do not live in a perfect world. If you are not completely satisfied with your catering equipment product then you can return the item/s within seven days of receiving the goods for a no quibble refund. You may be asked to pay the costs of returning the goods (if any apply) unless we have delivered the product to you in error. We cannot refund any non stocked item which has been specifically ordered for you, but generally speaking if your not happy then neither are we.

You may cancel your order by:

a) Sending a notice by e-mail, fax, or phone quoting your name, address, product code, and customer reference number.
b) If you have already recieved the goods, then contact us to arrange return of the products within seven days of receipt.

One final note, please read all instructions carefully, you would not believe the number of returns we recieve back which are supposedly faulty only later to discover that it was down to customer misuse or not reading the instructions.
If our engineers do not discover a fault with your product or if the fault is not covered by the manufacturers guarantee, then unfortunately you will be charged with any associated costs. Again, normally all of these problems are avoided with simple communication.
Alexanders will not be held responsible for damages to property as a result of faulty manufacturers products,
or and loss of earnings while products are repaired under warranty.



FAULTY PRODUCTS

All goods must be checked for damage on delivery before signing. Once signed for, any fault with the goods becomes the responsibilty of the customer, and goods damaged at the time of delivery cannot always be exchanged.
If the goods are faulty, incorrect, or damaged on delivery we will collect the goods from you and fully refund the price you paid for the goods, or inturn swop over the appliance for you whichever you prefer.
If a service call is booked with us for a faulty product and the product is found to not be at fault by our engineer, please note the customer may be liable for a call out charge.
