Making A Purchase
We accept payment in 3 ways:
- By debit/credit card via Worldpay
- By cheque (UK customers only)
- By purchase order (UK schools / educational establishments only)
PAYMENT VIA WORLDPAY
To take online payments securely we use Worldpay. We accept payment by Visa, Mastercard, Maestro/Switch, Solo, Visa Electron and Delta cards.
Unfortunately we are unable to accept Amex cards.
When you click "Checkout Now" you will go through to the shipping confirmation, and then the payment selection screen. If you choose to pay by Worldpay, you will be asked to click on a logo which matches your card and you will then be taken through to the Worldpay Secure Payment page.
Fill in the details as requested on the page, carefully checking for any errors. You MUST amend your BILLING Address if it is incorrect. The address you enter is used to confirm your identity. This is done by checking the details held by your card issuer against those given. If you enter an address which is not your billing address, you may be asked to provide further identification which may slow down your order.
When you submit your details, they will be checked. If the pre-authorisation is accepted, you will see a confirmation on-screen, and receive an email confirmation from Worldpay.
Note: If you receive an on-screen confirmation but not an email this could be because you have entered your email address incorrectly on your account sign-up screen. Please ensure that you enter your details carefully.
PAYMENT BY CHEQUE
If you wish to pay by cheque, you can choose to do so in the drop-down menu (instead of 'Payment by Worldpay'). Please print off your order confirmation and post to us with your cheque for the full amount to: Focus on Phonics Limited, Manyweathers, Oak Way, Reigate, Surrey, RH2 7ES. Cheques should be made payable to 'Focus on Phonics Limited'. If making payment by cheque, please write your address on the reverse of the cheque. Please bear in mind that it will take several extra working days for your order to be received and your payment processed.
PAYMENT BY PURCHASE ORDER
We do accept UK school purchase orders (on school or education authority headed notepaper) by mail or by fax (01737 789806). An invoice will be sent out with your goods - payment terms are 30 days from the invoice date.
We reserve title to any goods shipped until we receive payment in full for them. Schools can request inspection copies by prior arrangement, but please note that any goods not required are returned at school's own cost.
Shipping And Handling
UK Delivery Rate
For our purposes, the UK includes England, Northern Ireland, Scotland, Wales and all BFPO addresses.
Delivery to customers in the UK is free for orders over £35 excluding VAT - i.e. the net amount of the order is over £35 before VAT has been added (VAT will apply to non-book items such as games, DVDs and CDs). For orders less than £35 excluding VAT, we charge £2.95 per order. The VAT rate for delivery charges is calculated in proportion to the VAT on the goods supplied.
International Delivery Rates
If you are ordering from the Channel Islands, Isle of Man, Orkney, Shetland and Scottish Islands, or the Republic of Ireland, Europe or other World-wide destination, delivery costs are dependent on the weight of the parcel and country it is being delivered to.
Please contact us for a quotation of delivery costs before you place your order.
Delivery Schedule
Goods will be dispatched as soon as possible on receipt of the order as most items are held in stock - this is usually on the same or next available working day.
Delivery methods (UK mainland destinations):
Royal Mail First Class post (estimated 1 - 2 working days) will normally be used for orders weighing up to 1.5 kg.
Our courier service (estimated 1 - 2 working days) or Royal Mail Standard Parcel (estimated 2 - 3 working days) will be used for orders weighing over 1.5 kg.
Our couriers require a signature on receipt. If you are unlikely to be at home for a delivery, we are able to deliver to a different address - please give details when placing your order.
We aim to deliver your order as soon as possible using these methods. To avoid disappointment, you should, however, allow 15 days for delivery - particularly at busy times during the year (such as Christmas). We will of course contact you if there is likely to be any delay in dispatching your items.
Back Orders
If an item is "Out of stock" we will advise you as soon as possible and place the item on order. You will be given the option, by email, to cancel your order if you would rather not wait.
Tax Charges
ORDERS FOR DELIVERY TO UK CUSTOMERS AND OTHER CUSTOMERS WITHIN THE EUROPEAN UNION.
Prices quoted on our website include VAT (where applicable) for UK and other customers within the EU.
The VAT rate on books delivered to customers within the EU is 0%.
The VAT rate for non-book items such as games, tapes and CDs is 17.5%.
The VAT rate for delivery charges is calculated in proportion to the VAT on the goods supplied.
If you buy products containing a book and an item such as a CD-ROM (mixed media), the VAT charged is dependent on the proportion of the total cost subject to VAT. The VAT rate on delivery reflects the VAT rate of the items we are sending you.
ORDERS FROM CUSTOMERS OUTSIDE THE EUROPEAN UNION
For orders outside the EU, VAT is generally not chargeable. Destinations outside the EU may be subject to import duty. These are not included in our prices and are the responsibility of customers to pay on or after receipt of goods.
Credit Card Security
To take online payments securely we use Worldpay. Your card details are kept completely secure. We don't even get to see them. This offers the highest level of security.

Returns Policy
We hope that you will be fully satisfied with the goods that you have bought. However, if you do wish to return any items from your order, please do so within 14 days of receipt, un-marked and un-damaged (in resalable condition) for either a full refund of the value of the goods or an exchange. Please note that any product packaging (e.g. on CD-ROMS, tapes, etc.) must be unopened (with any seals and shrink-wrap intact) for us to be able to issue a refund. We can only accept the return of opened packaged items if they are faulty.
By law, customers located in the European Union also have the right to withdraw from the purchase of an item within a cooling off period of seven working days from the day after the date the item is delivered.
Unless the goods are faulty or sent in error, you are responsible for the cost of returning the goods to us. We recommend you use recorded delivery and obtain insurance, as proof of posting is not proof of receipt.
If you receive goods that are faulty or have been damaged in transit, please let us know straight away and we will either offer you a full refund or replace the goods at our cost.
Refunds are normally processed within 7 days of receipt.
Our guarantees are provided in addition to your statutory rights as a consumer.
Your rights to return goods are protected under the EU Distance Selling Directive which can be found at http://www.hmso.gov.uk/si/si2000/20002334.htm
