Cancellation Policy

If you wish to cancel your order, you must contact our Customer Service team at [email protected] to make sure your order has not been prepared yet as all orders are processed on the same day or next working day.

If you placed your order before 1pm on a weekday, we endeavour to prepare your product(s) in the afternoon of the same day. If you ordered after 1pm or on Saturday/Sunday/Bank Holiday, your order will be made on the morning of the next working day.

If your order has already been prepared you will unfortunately not be allowed to cancel it. The Statutory right to cancel an order and receive a full refund under the Consumer Protection Regulations 2000 does not apply to personalized items.

All orders are subject to availability. On rare occasions we may have to cancel your order if we have ran out of stock of the specific item you chose. We do our best to update online stock in real time but it can happen - notably during sale period – that we may be made aware a particular piece has ran out only after you placed an order successfully. In this case, our Customer Service will contact you as soon as possible to inform you of an updated delivery date, offer an alternative solution or give you a full refund. We are under no obligation to offer compensation for the disappointment caused.

Delivery

Provided they are in stock, we aim to dispatch all items within 48 business hours.

We will deliver your goods to the delivery address provided at the time you placed your order. It is your responsibility to ensure that the delivery address you give us is correct and, if required, that somebody is available to accept or sign for the delivery from the selected delivery service. We cannot accept responsibility for packages that are signed for by someone other than the addressee.

If you have not received your order 3 working days beyond the maximum timeframe our guide indicates, please contact our Customer Service team by email at [email protected]. We aim to reply to every email within 2 working days and will do our best to find a solution to your problem.

Customs

Orders shipped outside the United Kingdom may be liable to taxes, duties, customs charges and extra fees charged by the courier company at the destination. Payment will need to be made by the recipient and Merci Maman cannot be held responsible for any charge once the package has been shipped from our workshop. Please note the customs process might incur additional delays.

Warranty

Our jewellery is guaranteed for two years from the date of purchase, subject to approval of the claim by our customer service department.

Necklace chains whose links have broken as a result of inappropriate use are not covered by the guarantee.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us at [email protected]. Please report any defects to us within 30 days of purchase. We try to respond to all emails within 2 working days (Monday to Friday) and will do our best to find a solution to your problem.

Collection Précieuse

Crafted from recycled 18k solid gold, each piece of Luxury Collection jewelry comes with a five-year guarantee (assuming the item in question has been well taken care of and that the fault comes from the manufacturing process and is not a result of customer care). Micro scratching is a part of the normal evolution of a solid gold piece due to the soft metal and cannot be considered a manufacturing fault. Due to the nature of the personalisation of our product, which are made with your choice of words, our items are non-returnable and non-refundable. However, if the goods you have received are not what you ordered or are defective, please contact our Customer Service team by email at [email protected] within 14 days.

Services

When you place an order for a service (change of  braid, modification of jewellery, addition of an engraving), the order is kept for up to 3 months from the date of the order. After 3 months, if we have not received your jewellery, your order will be cancelled with no possibility of a refund.
