Cancellation Policy
At WholecoBuy, we understand that sometimes you may need to cancel an order. This Cancellation Policy explains when and how you can request cancellation of an order placed through our website.
Cancelling Your Order
If you have changed your mind about your purchase, please contact our Customer Support team as soon as possible after placing your order.
We will try to cancel your order before it is processed or dispatched. However, once an order has been processed, packed, or dispatched, it may no longer be possible to cancel it.
If your order has already been dispatched, you may need to receive the order and follow our Refund and Returns Policy to return the item where applicable.
Cancellation Before Dispatch
If you request cancellation before your order has been dispatched, we will make reasonable efforts to stop the order from being shipped.
If the cancellation is successfully completed, any applicable refund will normally be issued to the original payment method used for the purchase.
The time it takes for the refund to appear in your account may depend on your bank or payment provider.
Cancellation After Dispatch
Once an order has been dispatched, cancellation may no longer be possible.
In this situation, you may have the right to cancel the purchase under applicable UK consumer law. For most online purchases, consumers generally have a 14-day cooling-off period from the day after receiving the goods, subject to applicable exceptions.
If you wish to exercise your cancellation rights after receiving your order, please contact our Customer Support team and follow the return instructions provided.
How to Request a Cancellation
To request cancellation, please contact our Customer Support team as soon as possible.
Please provide:
Your order number
The name used when placing the order
The item or items you wish to cancel
The reason for cancellation, if applicable
Providing accurate order information will help us process your request more efficiently.
Refunds for Cancelled Orders
If your cancellation is accepted and a refund is due, the refund will normally be made using the original payment method.
For cancellations made under applicable statutory cancellation rights, refunds will be handled in accordance with applicable UK consumer law.
Depending on your bank or payment provider, it may take additional working days for the refund to appear in your account.
Exceptions to Cancellation Rights
Certain products or services may be excluded from statutory cancellation rights or may have specific conditions, where permitted by law.
These may include, for example:
Personalised or customised products
Goods made specifically to your requirements
Certain sealed goods that are not suitable for return for health or hygiene reasons once unsealed
Certain digital content where applicable legal requirements have been met
Other products or services covered by applicable statutory exceptions
Where an exception applies, we will provide relevant information before or at the time of purchase where required.
Faulty or Incorrect Orders
If you want to cancel an order because you have received a faulty, damaged, or incorrect item, please contact us as soon as possible.
Depending on the circumstances, you may have additional rights under UK consumer law, including rights to a repair, replacement, price reduction, or refund.
Your Statutory Rights
Nothing in this Cancellation Policy affects your statutory rights under UK consumer law.
Where there is a difference between this policy and your legal rights, your statutory rights will apply.
Policy Updates
We may update this Cancellation Policy from time to time to reflect changes to our services, procedures, or applicable legal requirements.
Any updated version will be published on this page.
