At CustomEmbroideredPatches.uk, customer satisfaction is important to us. We do not offer a standard refund policy for custom-ordered products, as each item is manufactured to the customer's specific requirements. Before placing an order, please review the following policy carefully.
1. Order Cancellation
- Customers can cancel an order at any time before artwork approval and before the production phase begins.
- Pre-production cancellations are eligible for a full refund.
- Refunds will be processed using the original payment method wherever possible.
- Once production has officially started, orders cannot be cancelled or refunded.
- Where applicable, any custom manufacturing setup costs incurred prior to cancellation will be deducted from the refund amount.
2. Artwork Approval
- All custom embroidered patches and badges require formal artwork approval prior to manufacturing.
- Customers are required to thoroughly review the following details in their proof:
- Design layout and composition
- Thread and fabric colours
- Exact physical dimensions
- Spelling and typography
- Logos and graphic elements
- Placement details
- Once the artwork proof is approved, CustomEmbroideredPatches.uk assumes no responsibility for any errors present in the finalised design.
3. Refund Eligibility
A refund or order credit will only be considered under the following specific circumstances:
- The cancellation request is submitted before production has started.
- A billing error occurred and payment was wrongly processed.
- Unforeseen internal circumstances prevent our company from completing your order.
- An unresolvable technical production problem is identified during manufacturing.
- Note: All refund requests require full order documentation to be submitted for administrative review.
4. Manufacturing Errors
We take great pride in our custom embroidered products. In the event of a significant manufacturing defect, please contact our team immediately upon receiving your shipment.
- Eligible Defect Examples:
- Incorrect physical sizing dimensions
- Incorrect backing options applied
- Significant structural deviation from the approved artwork design
- Manufacturing faults that compromise the overall product usability
- Customers will be asked to provide clear photographs and supporting details to assist our quality assurance team during the review process.
