About Us

Our aim is to make your shopping experience with us the best, most cost-competitive and convenient as any you will find elsewhere on the web.

To achieve this, we have set up arrangements with all of the recognised manufacturers whose products and services we are happy to endorse, so that we can ensure prompt delivery wherever possible of top quality and reliable goods to your chosen destination.

In many cases, we shall not have had the pleasure of meeting our website customers, face to face, allowing us the opportunity to discuss with them the best appliances to suit their needs and delivery requirements. While the purpose of this Customer Charter is, therefore, to briefly take our distance sale customers through the things which will happen after they have placed your order with us, and why. While our showroom customers should have had everything in our Charter fully explained to them, this document is equally applicable to them (except where marked below).

While we try and ensure that all prices on our Web site are accurate, errors may occur. If we discover an error in the price of goods you have ordered we will inform you as soon as possible and give you the option of reconfirming your order at the correct price or cancelling it. If we are unable to contact you we will treat the order as cancelled. If you cancel and you have already paid for the goods, you will receive a full refund.

The company accepting the payment is International Property Centre Ltd trading as First Interiors and that is what will appear on your statement.

None of our terms of trading affect your statutory rights as a consumer.

Making A Purchase

Browse our catalogue and click on "add to cart" at any item that you wish to buy and it will be placed in your shopping cart. Once you have finished your selection, click on "checkout now" and you will be asked for your details. You can also place an order by phone at 0870 803 0497. You will be sent an order confirmation by email or letter when we receive your order but this does not confirm availability.

We accept credit card payment by Visa or Mastercard or payment by Switch. These are processed when orders are ready for despatch. You may send your credit card information via phone, fax, post or online which is the safest way as we use 128 bit SSL encryption and your information is not stored on a computor which is permanently connected to the internet. Cheques are accepted but allow 7 days for clearance. Any errors in receipts or payments will be rectified within 5 working days of our agreeing to correct them.

If your item is not in stock, has been changed or has been discontinued, you will be offered the option to cancel or change your order. No contract has been entered into until we confirm availablity of your order as stock may have been sold out or specification been changed on new replacements from the manufacturer.

Special Shipping Instructions

Carriage is free on all orders over £150, orders under this figure attract a charge of £13.00. UK deliveries are usually made within 5 working days. Assistance may be required with unloading of heavy or large items and we only deliver to the ground floor unless by special arrangement.

ON DELIVERY PLEASE THOROUGHLY INSPECT THE GOODS AND REPORT DAMAGES, FAULTS OR ERRORS IN THE ORDER TO US AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. We cannot accept liability for damages or errors if goods have been fitted.

IN THE EVENT THAT GOODS CANNOT BE INSPECTED ON DELIVERY THEN SIGN FOR THEM AS "UNEXAMINED".

When nobody is available at the delivery address to accept delivery, our carrirer will leave a 'collect from depot card'. There is a cut off period when goods will be returned to us if you have failed to collect them from the depot within the given time frame. We are usually charged by the carrier for the return of the goods. These costs will be charged back to you along with the NEW DELIVERY COSTS TO GET THE GOODS TO YOU.

Report damages, faults or errors to the Customer Services Manager by email or letter as per the contact details section. In the unlikely event of damage, fault or error you will be entitled to an exchange or full refund. Refunds will be made within 5 working days of our agreement to do so.

Delivery Schedule

We will do our utmost to get your order delivered to where you want it as quickly as possible.

We are usually charged by the carrier for the return of the goods. These costs will be charged back to you along with the NEW DELIVERY COSTS TO GET THE GOODS TO YOU.

Delivery times vary however products are usually delivered within 7-10 working days from stocks throughout the UK. For advance delivery details Email sales@myelectric.co.uk or call 0870 803 0497. For any item that has to be specially ordered you will be advised of the likely delivery date and will be given the option to cancel the order if it will take too long to complete. Contracts not completed within 30 days can be cancelled by either party. Refunds will be processed within 5 days.

We advise against booking trades for installations untill the goods have been received. No liability can be accepted for costs caused by late deliveries.

Back Orders

If your item is not in stock, has been changed or has been discontinued, you will first be emailed or written to with the option to cancel or change your order. Where possible we can back order for you and these items are not charged until they are ready for despatch. Refunds will be processed within 5 working days.

Credit Card Security

We know of no documented cases of credit card fraud using our shopping system over the Internet.

All credit card numbers are encrypted in the software when the order is placed using 128 bit SSL encryption. This encryption begins at the form where you are asked for your credit card details. They are only decrypted after they reach our computer, all that passes through the internet is a scrambled message. They are not held in clear text on any web site.

Your information is not stored on an internet active computer so your details cannot be accessed by a third party.

This system is the safest way to buy and is safer than passing your details over the phone lines and at least as safe as passing your card over a shop counter.

The ordering system allows you to make several other choices of method to pay. You can pay by cheque or call us with your credit card details. Process your order through the system then select YOUR PREFERRED PAYMENT METHOD.

The company accepting the payment is International Property Centre Ltd trading as First Interiors and that is what will appear on your statement.

Returns Policy

(PLEASE NOTE: This section is not applicable to showroom sales)
Goods are not sold on a trial basis however you have 7 working days from the day following receipt of goods to notify us in writing that you wish to cancel the order. You always have the right (except in very limited circumstances where goods may have been made to order or personalised in some way) to change your mind and return any appliance to us for a full refund (excluding original delivery charge). However, you must do this quickly and within no more than seven working days after delivery... another very good reason for inspecting all appliances upon receipt. Goods must also be returned in their original packing.

Goods must be taken reasonable care of and must be as new and in saleable condition on their return. You must arrange and pay for the cost of the return. You will only be credited for goods received in saleable, as new condition at our depot. Refunds will be processed within 30 days of the receipt of the written cancellation of the order. Our order confirmation includes a cancellation form or you can email our Operations Manager at customerservices@myelectric.co.uk Due to the fragile nature of our products they must be repacked as they were received. Goods which have been made to your specification will be excluded from this returns policy.

We will, of course, be very happy to discuss any problem with you before you make the final decision to return an appliance... whether there is a defect or whether you have simply changed your mind….in the hope that we can resolve the problem without the need for returning the appliance. But if that is not possible, we shall be very happy to discuss with you the supply of a replacement.

Exchanges
The returns policy applies and exchange goods will be treated as a new order until the original goods are returned for credit as appropriate.

Remittance Terms

All goods must be paid in full before despatch. A 25% deposit will be taken on Range cookers which are made to order. All our invoices include VAT at 17.5% .

Because it is so important to us that you will be completely satisfied with your order when it arrives, we ask you to inspect all goods delivered immediately upon arrival, just in case any damage has been caused in transit, or if there is some other reason why you are not entirely happy with them. The manufacturers are perfectly willing to take back and replace damaged or defective goods, but are understandably less willing to do so where there has been a delay between delivery and inspection. So it is very much in your interest to ensure that the goods don't just sit around in boxes after they have arrived. If you are not ready to take delivery (e.g. you may be away on holiday... or the premises to which the goods are to be delivered is new and has not yet been handed over by the builders), please let us know when delivery will be convenient so that we can give you the best opportunity to inspect them upon arrival.

Our guideline time within which we would expect you to have inspected all goods is seven days after delivery. Only in very exceptional circumstances would we consider a longer period to be reasonable to justify allowing the return of goods where damage could have been discovered upon inspection.

Finally, it is equally important that you do not try to anticipate delivery before it happens and get your fitters all lined up only to find they have no appliances or sink to fit! We strongly recommend you wait until all units have arrived before committing yourselves to installers and, at best, being disappointed and at worst being liable to pay the costs of wasted time. As stated above, we pride ourselves in being able to obtain good delivery dates, but there are all manner of reasons, over which we have no control, why an estimated arrival date may not be met.
