ORDERS
There are three ways.
Online, by shopping on our website.
Calling us on 0871 423 0000 between 8am and 8pm, seven days a week. Yes you can order on a Sunday.
Or by post, at Damart, Bowling Green Mills, Bingley, West Yorkshire, BD97 1AD. Remember to write down your offer code on the order form so you don’t miss out on our latest offer.
Something not arrived in your order? Don’t worry. If part of your order is out of stock at the time, it might land on your doorstep a few days later. Also, bigger items like bedding and rugs are sent direct from our supplier and can take up to 14 days.
You can check anything about your order by emailing us at customerservices@damart.com or calling 0330 123 0842.
It’s pretty disappointing when something arrives damaged. That’s why we’re quick off the mark to arrange free courier collection or send you a free returns label so you can get it back to us asap. Just email customerservices@damart.com or call 0330 123 0842, have your order number ready and we’ll sort it.
We’re really sorry if one of your items hasn’t been sent with the rest. If all the things you ordered are in stock, we aim to deliver within 2-5 days for Standard Delivery, but it's often much sooner.
We’ll email you delivery updates if we have your email address.
Please get in touch at customerservices@damart.com or call 0330 123 0842.
It’s ok, we all change our minds. Orders made online are tricky as they’re processed straight away and could already be at our warehouse being packed. So, unless the order is out of stock we can’t cancel it. Sorry.
You can email us at customerservices@damart.com to see if your order’s in stock and if we can cancel. We do our best to reply within 24 hours. If we can cancel and you paid by credit or debit card, Personal Account or Direct Debit, you won’t be charged. If you paid by cheque we’ll refund it within ten working days of us confirming the cancellation.
But don’t forget, you can always return the whole order to us if you change your mind.
Yes. Just pop to our catalogue page, leave your details and we’ll get one on its way. It usually takes 3 or 4 working days. You can also call us for free on 0800 587 6020 and one will be winging its way to you.
Quick Order is great when you know exactly what you’d like and what its reference number is. So if something caught your eye in a magazine advert or a newspaper, it’s really fast to order directly. Have its reference number ready. To find our more, take a look here.
We work very closely with Hermes, our courier partner. They’re taking lots of safety measures so your parcel arrives quickly, safely and on time.
Once you’ve ordered from the comfort of your own home, the courier will deliver ‘contact free’. This means they’ll walk up to your door, ring the bell and leave your parcel on the doorstep. They’ll then walk back two metres and wait for you to answer the door.
You can also ask for the courier to leave the parcel in a safe place, like a garage, porch, or shed, or even with a neighbour if you’d prefer that.
Just choose a ‘safe place’ when you call to place your order or choose a safe place when you receive your Hermes notifications.
If you do choose a safe place, our courier will deliver your parcel and take a photo of it for their records. They’ll then post a calling card letting you know where your parcel is.
Don’t worry if you don’t have a safe place. You don’t need to sign for your parcel any more, but the courier will still knock, just so you know they’re there.
DELIVERY
We’ve been working closely with our courier and suppliers to make sure we have plenty of clothing in stock. With our amazing parcel delivery teams and customer service teams working 8am to 8pm every day, we’re glad to say you shouldn’t notice a difference in our World Class Customer Experience.
We also have plans and processes to keep our teams safe and make sure our business runs as usual.
According to Public Health England (PHE) people aren’t at risk of contracting Covid from parcels. It’s thought the viruses don't survive long on things like packages. This complements the guidance from PHE to wash your hands more often using soap and hot water.
Also, our items are usually transported by sea, which can take up to six weeks and it’s highly unlikely viruses survive that long.
Our letters and catalogues are printed, produced and despatched in Yorkshire.
And our parcels are also packed by our own team, in Yorkshire too
