idooka Terms & Conditions

At idooka we love to help all consumers, but if you are buying for a business, please let us know; there are some other terms (and benefits) you should know about.

idooka is a trading company of XS items ltd

We’ve tried to keep our Terms and Conditions as clear as possible and give you all the information we can (but not too much) about your online transactions so that you completely understand the whole process, from order to delivery and beyond. It’s really important to us that your online shopping experience meets expectations, so please spend a few minutes and read on. You’ll need to accept our T’s & C’s every time you make a purchase – they might change from time to time, so do check the date at the top of the page.

Please note that different terms (including prices, charges for services, availability, delivery times and returns policies) apply to purchases made in one of our stores.

Our contract after you have ordered

Firstly, don’t panic if you make any mistakes during your order, you can correct any input errors right up until you confirm payment.  Once you’re happy everything is correct, and you’ve submitted an order you’ll be emailed an Order Number and details of the products (and/or services) you have ordered.  You’ll then receive an email headed ‘Order Acknowledgement’ recognising receipt of your order.  We will then send a further email headed ‘Order Confirmation’. This second email also lets you know how your products will be delivered to you.  If we have to cancel all or part of your order for any reason, we will email you to let you know.

We take all reasonable steps to ensure all details, descriptions and prices of products and services are correct at the time the information was entered onto the system. Sometimes we have to hold our hands up and admit we have made a mistake by unintentionally publishing inaccurate information on the site (e.g., the price, description or availability of a product you have ordered). In this instance we may have to cancel your order at any time, even if you have received your Order Confirmation email, and you will receive a full refund of any charges already paid.

Prices and payments

As you would expect all our prices are in UK pounds.  The total cost of your order will be the price of the products you order, the delivery charge (if any), plus any additional services you choose e.g., premium delivery or installation.  You’ll see all these in your Shopping Basket before you submit an order. Payment is deducted once an order is submitted.

When deciding whether to accept your order we may use certain information about you, including any received from our accredited identity verification partner.  For example, we may pass on your details for them to check against certain public and private databases. This will help to protect you and us from fraudulent activities.

If we identify a transaction as being potentially fraudulent, we may ask our courier to return the goods to our warehouse, we may cancel your order even though you will have received the Order Confirmation email.

Where applicable, any discount code applied will be limited to one use per customer. By customer we deem this to be registered email address. Discount codes have no cash value and can not be exchanged for gift vouchers. Discount codes will expire and there may be limited or no notice on expiration dates. We reserve the right to end a promotion at any time. There is no minimum spend required for use of a discount code and it will be applied to the whole order. XS Items t/a idooka.com reserve the right to exclude certain products from promotional code discounts.

Missing, damaged or incorrect orders

We want you to be absolutely satisfied with your product and would recommend that, where practicable, you unpack and check it for damage as soon as it arrives.  If you receive a damaged product, please contact us as soon as the damage is discovered by emailing team@idooka.com.

We do everything we can to ensure your order arrives at your door complete and in pristine condition. If you don’t receive all your products at once, you can check that they have been dispatched using our tracking facility detailed in the confirmation email.  If it’s not on its way, you can email one of our helpful colleagues at team@idooka.com.  In the unlikely event that the product is faulty, please follow the instructions in the delivery documents.

Returns and after sales policy

If for whatever reason you change your mind and would like to return your order after delivery, we’re happy to refund or exchange your purchase as long as it’s unopened and in its original packaging. This option is available for 30 days after delivery.

Following The Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations, we will accept items back even if you have opened the goods to inspect them.  You are entitled to a refund as long as you inform us of your decision to cancel within 30 calendar days from the day after delivery of the goods. You can examine the goods as you would in a shop but to obtain a full refund you must not start using them, install them or input any data/software.  The goods must be in an ‘as new’ condition and returned in the original, undamaged packaging, along with any accessories and free gifts received with them. DVDs, CDs, memory cards and software packaging discs must still be sealed.  If you want to return a Software Product Activation Key card which is not faulty, the silver strip on the back of the card must be fully intact as new.

To return a product you can:

Once we have received the goods back from you, we will give you a refund for the cost of the product plus the delivery charge paid (except for the additional costs arising if you selected a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).

We may make a deduction from the refund for any loss in value of the goods if the loss is a result of any unnecessary handling by you.

Refunds can take up to 10 days to be credited to your payment card once we’ve received your returned item.

We cannot refund/cancel your purchase

Faulty goods

It’s bad enough that your product develops a fault, so we try to make our returns or repair service as painless as possible.

We will offer either a repair, exchange, or refund if the fault occurs within 30 days of purchase (or delivery or installation). If the fault with your product occurs within its guarantee period (normally 12 months from delivery) we will offer you a prompt repair service*. In all cases we reserve the right to inspect the product and verify the fault.

For a refund or exchange, the product must be in otherwise ''as new'' condition, complete with any accessories and free gifts offered and if possible, with the original box and packaging.

If a DVD, CD, or software item is faulty under guarantee we will happily exchange it for the same title or offer a refund.

To return a product you can:

Refunds for faulty goods include the applicable delivery charge and you will not be charged for collection. Replacement goods are sent by standard delivery.  If a fault occurs while you are abroad, please contact us to discuss how we can assist.

We do not cover faults caused by accident, neglect, misuse or normal wear and tear. Consumable items, such as non-rechargeable batteries and ink cartridges are covered by guarantee for 3 months after delivery.

Items sold on this website are generally intended for normal domestic and consumer use and not for resale or commercial use.  If we arrange to collect goods from you it will be at our cost.

*Often repairs will be carried out by the manufacturers’ own repair agents with whom we have arrangements in place to ensure your product is repaired by skilled and qualified engineers. If we refer you to such a repair centre when you call us, please be assured this is only in the best interest to get you up and running again. If you’re not happy with their service, we urge you to let us know.

1.4.1. to make it conform with any applicable safety or other statutory requirements; or
