RETURNING YOUR ORDER IN THE EVENT OF ROYAL MAIL STRIKE ACTION

In the event of Royal Mail strike action your order may take longer to be delivered back to us. To speed up your return you may wish to return any unsuitable item(s) back to one of our stores (excluding Department stores). Simply take your unworn item(s) along with your dispatch note to store within 28 days of receipt. Special collection and concession items will still need to be returned to our warehouse via the normal postal returns process. These items are clearly marked on your dispatch note with a ‘**’ at the end of the product description.

If you choose to return your item(s) via Royal Mail during or after periods of strike action it may take up to 8 weeks to reach us. For all postal returns, please ensure that you create a returns number in the My Account section of our website. Your returns number should be filled in on the returns label that is enclosed with your order prior to attaching it to your returns parcel.

We guarantee to refund any item you are not completely happy with when you return it to us in saleable condition within 14 days of receipt. Refunds will be credited to your original method of payment. In the interests of hygiene we do not offer refunds on pierced jewellery, or underwear or swimwear if the hygiene seal has been removed, unless they are of unsatisfactory quality or unfit for purpose. Please also note that items must be returned with all of the barcode tags intact.

Please note any items from the Kate Moss Limited Edition collection, and all items that are part of our concession brand collections can only be returned to our website. Stores will be unable to refund these items for you.

Returns to Store

For your convenience, UK customers can go to your nearest store in the UK and Republic of Ireland customers can go to your nearest store in the Republic of Ireland, excluding those in department stores, with your returns. Please ensure that you take your despatch note with you as your proof of purchase. You will also require the card that was used to purchase the order online. If you are not the cardholder for the order, they will need to be present at the time of return to store to accept the refund back onto their credit/debit card.

Republic of Ireland customers - Please note: refunds in-store for items bought on-line will be paid in Euros by applying Arcadia's current commercial exchange rate to the sterling price for the item on your despatch note.

International customers - Please note: unfortunately we currently do not offer refunds or exchanges on items bought on TOPSHOP.COM to stores in Australia, Denmark, France, Germany, Italy, Netherlands, Spain, and Sweden, without exception. We are sorry for any inconvenience this may cause you.
