Credit card security guarantee
We have processed thousands of orders without a single security issue. In the unlikely event of your credit card being abused as a result of shopping at this site we guarantee to reimburse 100% of any loses you incur.

We will reimburse the first £50 of your loss as, legally, the credit card issuer must repay the rest. However, in the unlikely event of an error occurring we will handle the whole process on your behalf.

The purchase area of our site is secure; this means that we utilize industry-standard Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) 1024bit technology to allow for the encryption of potentially sensitive information such as your credit card details. Information passed between your computer and our Web site cannot be read in the event it is intercepted by someone else.

  • Did you know? The risk of credit card fraud is 100 times greater when you hand your card to the waiter in a restaurant than when you shop on the Internet! Modern day encryption technology, used by many Internet stores similar to ourselves, virtually eliminates credit card fraud on the Internet.
  •  
  • We also go one stage further than most other online stores and do not keep your credit card information online for more than it takes us to process your transaction.  This enhances your card protection.
  •  
  • This is just another example of why the online shopping experience offered by us, outperforms any physical shopping experience.
