Do you have any vouchers or offers?
From time to time, we send news and special offer discounts and voucher codes to our customers. These are sent by email to customers who have given us their email address and opted in to the newsletters when placing an order, if sending feedback, requesting that their email address is added to our marketing list or by contacting us separately to make such a request.
These email offers are entirely optional and customers can opt out at any time. We do not send contact information to any third party.
We also often release discount codes or deals on our social media - make sure to follow us to not miss out!

For either way, we are happy to take an order number and it will be shown on the appropriate paperwork including invoices, statements, receipts and delivery notes. If you are placing an order using your credit account, then we will insist on an order number before we despatch goods.
