Fitness Direct and its operation, sales and practices are governed by English
Law. Payment is normally taken in full when placing your order. This can be
in the form of a credit/debit/charge card, cheque or cash. All distance
orders will be confirmed in writing, either by email or by post. Copies
of orders taken in store will be given to the customer at the time of placing
your order.
All prices include VAT at standard UK rates and also include
delivery to a UK mainland address. Any address outside of the UK mainland will
be quoted on an individual basis.
Installation is not included in the selling price. If you require installation and the installation service is available on the item you have selected, we will make a small
charge to cover this service.
Standard delivery: • Monday
to Friday during working hours. • Within 7 - 10 working days from placing
the order, if we take longer than 28 days we will issue you with a full refund
if required. • Any delivery times quoted by our sales team are estimates
for guidance only, unless otherwise agreed. We are unable to pay compensation
for deliveries not arriving when expected unless a surcharge has been made for
a guaranteed delivery date or time. In this instance the surcharge will be credited
in full. Please inform us of any obstacles that the delivery team may come
across in delivering what could be a heavy piece of equipment eg. stairs to front
door, narrow road, narrow corridor, broken lift etc. If you intend to use
the equipment in a light commercial environment (eg. hotel, office, school etc.)
or fully commercial environment (eg. club gymnasium) it is entirely the responsibilty
of the customer to check with Home Fitness Direct staff that the product is suitable
and manufactured to the required standards. Unfortunately, if an order
is cancelled a charge may be made for carriage, only if we have incurred any costs.
All deliveries require a signature at point of delivery. All equipment
carries a minimum of a 12 month manufacturers warranty. Please ask for further
information related to warranties. None of the above affects your statutory
rights or your manufacturers warranty. We strongly advise customers, where
appropriate, to seek medical advice prior to purchasing any exercise equipment.
It is entirely the responsibility of the customer to check and be aware of their
own medical condition before using or purchasing any exercise equipment. None
of our advisors are medically qualified. Order Cancellations Under
