7.4 Typographical Errors and Incorrect Pricing

In the event any price listed on the Site is incorrect due to typographical error or error in pricing information received from a third party, we have the right to refuse or cancel any orders that have been placed at that incorrect price. We shall have the right to refuse or cancel any such orders whether or not the order has been confirmed and your Patient Account has been charged. If your Patient Account has already been charged for the purchase and your order is cancelled, we will promptly issue a credit to your Patient Account for the amount of the charge.

7.5 Online Payments

7.5.1 When you purchase Services and POM Products via the Site, the total price you pay shall comprise the following:

7.5.2 the price payable for the medical Service, which we collect as agent for and on behalf of the Pharmacy;

7.5.4 the price payable for you to use and access the Site and its features via your Patient Account in respect of those medical and pharmaceutical Services and POM Products; and

7.6 any applicable taxes.

We accept any payment method or system that is authorised within the UK, including direct debit, debit and credit cards, and third-party platforms. If a credit card account is being used for a transaction, we may obtain pre-approval for an amount up to the amount of the payment. If you enrol to make recurring payments automatically, all charges and fees will be billed to the Patient Account that you designate during the registration process on the Site. If you want to designate a different payment method or if there is a change affecting your payment method or system (e.g. if you want to change your credit or debit card), you must change your information online. This may temporarily delay your ability to make online payments while we verify your new payment information.

7.7 You represent and warrant that, if you are making online payments:

any payment account information that you supply is true, correct, and complete;

charges incurred by you will be honoured by the relevant institution;

you will pay the charges incurred by you in the amounts posted, including, without limitation, any applicable taxes; and

you are the person in whose name the payment method was issued and you are authorised to make a purchase or other transaction with the relevant payment metho

You will be given the option to add several payment methods to your Patient Account as payment options, with one of them as your default option. If payment from your default option is not authorised or fails, we will automatically attempt to take payment from one of the other payment methods that you have registered with your Patient Account.

7.8 Consent for recurring charges

You agree and authorise the payment method to be billed automatically for the Services and Products, according to the published pricing on the Site, which is subject to change at any time. If we are unable to secure funds from your payment method for any reason, including, but not limited to, insufficient funds in the payment account or insufficient or inaccurate information having been provided by you when submitting electronic payment, we may undertake further collection action, including application of fees to the extent permitted by law.

You have the right to revoke this authorisation by logging into your Patient Account and pausing your subscription up to 24 hours prior to your next scheduled renewal.

7.9 Right of withdrawal / cancellation

As a consumer entering into a distance or off-premises contract with a trader, you have certain statutory rights of cancellation pursuant to Regulation 29 of the Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013 (“CCR”). This right is, however, subject to certain exceptions, including pursuant to Regulations 27(2)(a) and (b) of the CCRs: (a) contracts for supply of a medicinal product by administration by a prescriber, or under a prescription or directions given by a prescriber; and (b) contracts for supply of a product by a healthcare professional or a person included in a relevant list, under arrangements for the supply of services as part of the health service, where the product is one that, at least in some circumstances, is available under such arrangements free or on prescription, to which this statutory right of cancellation does not apply.

As such contracts which result in the supply of POM Products cannot be cancelled in accordance with Regulation 29 CCR and once dispatched cannot therefore be returned, exchanged or refunded under such statutory provision. However, you have the right to reasonably inspect your POM Products, as you would in a shop, but you cannot return POM Products that you have used, unless you are returning them because they are damaged or faulty.

For Products that are not medicinal products, such as OTC Products, you have the right to cancel any transaction made online within 14 (fourteen) days of the relevant transaction. You must return any such OTC Products received within 14 (fourteen) days of receipt, it being noted that any return within 14 (fourteen) days of the relevant transaction shall be deemed to comply with this requirement. You may not return any OTC Product that has been opened, and you shall not be refunded should we or the Pharmacy receive any returned OTC Product that has been opened. The same shall apply for any Services that have been provided prior to or at the same time as your cancellation.

7.10 Shipping the Products

All POM Products that are advertised on the Site will be dispatched to you directly by the Pharmacy.
