Terms & Conditions

I confirm that I have read & understood the terms & conditions as set out below and have accepted them to proceed with my purchase:

Chatterbox Walls

This page (together with the documents referred to on it) tells you the terms & conditions on which we supply any of the products listed on our website www.chatterboxwalls.co.uk (our site) to you. Please read the terms and conditions carefully before ordering any products from our site. You (The Customer) should understand that by ordering any of our Products, you agree to be bound by these terms and conditions.

Custom Prints, Canvases & Cushions

I understand that by paying for the item, I have approved the design I have created to proceed to production and it will be produced exactly as previewed. This includes spellings, grammar, layout, colours, sizes, fonts (including distressed fonts), quantities and type of print/canvas/cushion. It is important that (you) the customer checks that the spelling, grammar and word layouts, sizes, quantities and type of print/canvas are correct prior to approval and payment. It is solely the customer’s responsibility to check the design for spelling, grammar sizes, colour option and type of print/canvas/cushion prior to approval of the design created on our website prior to payment. Chatterbox Walls cannot be held responsible for any errors which are made with regards to the spelling, grammar, word layout, colour option, sizes and type of print/canvas/cushion. I understand that once I have approved the on screen preview (which appears on screen during the design process, before progressing to the basket checkout) and have paid for the item, a file of my design is digitally created automatically, which Chatterbox Walls do not make any further amends to, and the item goes into our print queue which can be printed almost immediately. In the event you notice a mistake in the words or images you have typed and approved, you are able to make a change using our automated amends system, if we are contacted within 1 hour of placing your order via the contact form on our FAQ website page using the ‘I need to amend my order’ option only. If you request a manual amend (subject to our amends policy), there is an administration charge of £5 per manual amend request. I understand that I cannot submit an amend more than 1 hour after the order has been placed & it will not be possible to change the order after this time. Once an amend has been submitted it will then be confirmed on screen & an email confirming the amend will be sent to your email address. We do not send a further proof. We are unable to process amends via telephone, social media or any other form of communication other than via the ‘I need to amend my order’ option on the contact us page of our website.

Our amends policy is defined as:

This option is for requesting AMENDS TO ORDERS SUBMITTED IN THE PAST HOUR ONLY. After one hour your order will be moved into our automated production & no further amends can be actioned.

If you have noticed a mistake or need to amend your order, you are able to make changes to it up to one hour after it is placed by editing your order by yourself using our automated system.

We are unable to action any requests to make a manual amend (which includes spellings, text changes, font changes, font sizes, position of text, colour changes) & customers MUST make any amend themselves in the same way as they have placed their order. 

Once you have amended your mistake, acceptance will be confirmed on screen and an email confirming the change will be sent to your email address & supersedes any previous order confirmation details. If you do not see this confirmation either on screen or via email, the amendment request has NOT been submitted.

Requests for any changes sent via our ‘general enquiries’ option cannot be actioned. We are also unable to process amends via telephone, social media or any other form of communication other than via the ‘I've noticed a mistake’ option at the bottom of this page.

As all our designs are templates that enable customers to see their designs previewed ‘live’ on screen, we do rely on these being checked by the customer prior to payment, & strongly emphasize that it is the customer's responsibility to ensure that the content and layout of the design is accurate and precise before approval when placing the order. This includes: - spelling, grammar, layout, colours, sizes, font size, quantities, delivery address and type of product e.g. print/framed print/canvas/cushion etc.

Due to our designs being bespoke software templates which requires coding, you are unable to make any changes after purchase for the following:

  • Changes to the size of text
  • Add additional text or characters in addition to a line’s maximum number of characters
  • Changes to the position of text
  • Changes to the design layout
  • Changes to the size of the final design to a non standard size
  • Changes to the background colour or text colour 
  • Changes from a print/canvas to a cushion
  • Any other creative changes

We are unable to cancel any orders one hour after placing the order, as your order will be in production.

Making any changes will delay the dispatch of your order by 1 working day

Our contact details to submit an amend can be found on the following link or at the bottom of this page. Please ensure you select the 'I need to amend my order' option as we are unable to action amend requests via the general enquiries option: https://www.chatterboxwalls.co.uk/contact-us.php

Sizes

All sizes stated are the print/aperture size only. Choosing a framed option will add 30 - 40mm to each side of the frame (in addition to the print/aperture size) for a standard frame & up to 10mm on a box frame.

Images

I understand that the size of the file of the image I upload is directly related to the quality of the final printed image, and the image deteriorates the larger it is reproduced or printed.

Chatterbox Walls cannot be responsible for the final outcome of a print or canvas if the image you supply is of inferior quality or not suitable for a print size required by yourself. We will do our best to give you a quality finish but we cannot be held responsible for the end product if your supplied image is poor. It is the customer’s responsibility to ensure that all colours, sizes, filter effects and cropping areas are correctly supplied.

Copyright

By supplying us with your image, you agree that you own the copyright or license or have the written permission of the copyright owner to use the photograph. Under no circumstances will Chatterbox Walls be responsible for any copyright issues arising as a result of you supplying us with any image, artwork or text copy that is in breach of copyright.

Right to refuse images

Chatterbox Walls holds the right to refuse images, which are deemed of very low quality or in contradiction with our business morals and principles. This may include but is not limited to, racial discriminating picture, pornography, poor artwork, and immoral or illegal materials.

Price and Payment

The price of any product will be quoted on our site, except in cases of obvious error. These prices include delivery costs (to mainland UK locations.) overseas orders will incur additional shipping charges to be paid separately. Prices are liable to change at any time, but changes will not affect orders in respect of which we have already sent you an order confirmation. Chatterbox walls is a subsidiary of Doodle Images Ltd. Transactions will appear as Doodle Images Ltd on your paypal account or credit/debit card

Delivery

We aim to dispatch all orders within 2 working days (excluding weekends & public holidays) on an estimated Royal Mail tracked 48-hour delivery service, which is an aim & NOT a guarantee.

All standard free delivery orders will be produced & dispatched in the date order which we receive them, with no exceptions.

We also offer an express delivery option for £6.95 where your order is prioritised in production & dispatched on an estimated next working day delivery (see below for further information)

If you make an amendment to your order after purchase, your order dispatch will be delayed by at least one working day – more information on our amends policy can be found on our contact us page

Delivery will be provided by a trusted courier service and they will require for someone to be present to sign and collect the package. It is the sole responsibility of the customer to ensure that someone is available to take delivery. If an item is returned to Chatterbox Walls due to a customer not being available to receive the item on each delivery attempt, refusing delivery or has been held for collection by our delivery partner & not collected, an administration fee of between £5 & £10 (depending on the size of the item) payable in advance will be charged to resend the item. Additionally, no refunds will be given if an item is returned (or not collected from a delivery office or parcel shop), as they have been produced as a bespoke product to the customer’s exact requirements (as we can’t sell your bespoke design to someone else). I understand this is in line with current UK legislation which can be viewed on this link.  Chatterbox Walls cannot be held responsible for any late, lost or unforeseeable event caused by a delivery date not being met & we do not give refunds should an order not be delivered in the estimated timescale.

We are unable to change the delivery address once an order is in production (1hour after placing your order)

Express Delivery

Express delivery orders are prioritised in production & dispatched within 1 working day of the order being placed & then dispatched on a next working day delivery by our delivery partner (so delivery is estimated to be 2 working days from placing the order), which is an AIM & NOT A GUARANTEE (by our delivery partners the Royal Mail & DPD). Please note we DO NOT OFFER REFUNDS on the express delivery cost (or any part of the order) if your item is not delivered within the estimated timescale. Chatterbox Walls cannot be held responsible for any delays by our delivery partners

Multibuy Promotion Terms & Conditions

Terms & conditions for our Multibuy promotion - Save 20% on additional item

All items must be shipped to the same delivery address. Cannot be used with any other discount code. Multiple orders may be shipped separately.

Digital Downloads

Our digital downloads are a high resolution (300 DPI) downloadable jpeg file available to download on a link which will be emailed to you 90 minutes after your order is completed.

The downloadable file is the same that we use for printing, at 300 dpi and the same ratio as the printed poster. If you need to resize the file, this must be actioned on your device/software.

You can use the file to print your poster locally, home printer or as a file to use on social media.

Digital downloads are non-refundable & I understand that by purchasing a digital download I waive the right to the 14-day cooling-off period.

Whilst our digital files are calibrated to print industry standards (fogra39L), printed colours may vary slightly due to different colour monitors/printers.

Please note this design cannot be resold or redistributed in any way and is strictly for personal use only. Image reproduction rights do not transfer with the sale of this download.

Import Duties & Tariffs

If you order goods from our website for delivery outside the UK, they may be subject to import duties and taxes which are levied when the delivery reaches the specified destination. You will be responsible for payment of any such import duties and taxes. Please note that we have no control over these charges and cannot predict their amount. Please contact your local customs office for further information before placing your order. Should an order be returned due to the non payment of import duty or local taxes no refund on your goods or shipping costs will be provided as they have been produced as a bespoke product to the customer’s requirements (as we can’t sell your bespoke design to someone else). 

Damaged items

Whilst we pack all of our products robustly & with care prior to dispatch, on very rare occasions they can be damaged in the courier network. If your order has arrived damaged, we sincerely apologise. Please contact us via the email address at the bottom of this page to advise of the damage. 

To consider a replacement, we require clear photographic evidence of the damage, including the packaging within 1 working day of delivery to be provided via email. 

Please submit ALL of the following information & supporting evidence

  • A photo clearly showing the damage to the product
  • A photo showing all of the received product from the front
  • A photo showing all of the received product from the back
  • At least one photo showing all of the front side of the outer packaging (which  also includes the address label)
  • A photo of the address label
  • At least one photo showing all of the back side of the outer packaging
  • A photo showing any damage to the outer packaging
  • A photo showing all of the inner packaging.

All reports of damage must be submitted within 24 hours of delivery. This will enable us to take up the issue with our couriers. 

Once ALL of the above requested information & photos are received, we will advise on a replacement. Submitting part of the information requested or unclear photos will cause a delay in your replacement being sent, pending all of the requested information being received. If ALL of the requested information is not sent, then no replacement or refund will be issued.

We do not offer refunds on damaged orders but will produce a replacement (or send a frame only or clear acrylic glaze) when all of the requested information has been received.

If a framed print is damaged, unless there is also damage to the print, only a frame will be sent as a replacement.  If only the clear acrylic glaze is damaged, only a replacement piece of this will be sent & not a new frame or print. If a print is damaged within a frame, but the frame is not damaged, only a replacement print will be sent & not a new frame. It should take less than a minute to change the print or clear acrylic glaze by bending the clips on the rear of the frame using an upturned spoon.

Replacement orders due to damage will be dispatched on the same delivery tariff as the original order.

Our email address is support @ chatterboxwalls.co.uk 

Returns

Please note we cannot accept returns or offer refunds of personalised products, as they have been produced as a bespoke product to the customer’s requirements (as we can’t sell your bespoke design to someone else). This also includes items which have been returned or not collected from our couriers (including parcel shops &/or delivery offices). I understand this is in line with current UK legislation which can be viewed on this link. In the event of a technical issue, photographic evidence will be required prior to a replacement being issued. We regret we do not offer refunds if this occurs.

Colour Matching

Please note we will try our best to ensure the closest match possible using high quality commercial printing presses. However images and designs may vary slightly from those viewed on your device, due to the difference in how RGB (screen) and CMYK (print) processes show colour which is the result of the differences between how colour is produced on a computer/device screen and how it is produced on a printer printing on to paper & fabric, due to limitations, variations & calibration of browser & device software and backlit screens.
