ONLINE RETURNS POLICY

GOODWILL RETURNS POLICY

It is important to us that you are happy with your French Connection purchase. If you are not entirely happy with your purchase, you have 14 days from your date of purchase, to return your item to us for a refund or exchange. For account credit, return your item within 28 days.

The following items may not be returned for refund or exchange, unless faulty: earrings, or items with a security or hygiene seal or label, if the seal or label is broken, or has been tampered with (including underwear, swimwear, fragrance and toiletry products).

We are not currently able to offer exchanges on Homeware items. If you would like a different item, size or colour, please return your purchase to us for a refund, and place a new order.

We can exchange clothing and accessories (other than earrings) for a different size or colour. However, if you want a different item, please return your item to us for a refund and place a new order.

If your requested replacement item is out of stock in the size or colour you have requested, a refund will be processed instead.

If the price of the replacement item is different from your original product, we will apply a credit, or contact you to obtain the additional payment as appropriate.

In case of part return of a multi-buy set, or similar discount, the promotion will be void and you will be refunded proportionately according to the value of goods kept.

All items must be returned unused and in a fully resalable condition, with swing tags attached if possible. Please take care not to damage, scratch or mark any items, particularly Homeware, delicate and leather items when examining them.

We reserve the right to deduct amounts from refunds, up to the full value, where unwanted items show signs of use or unreasonable handling and are deemed not to be resalable.

You will receive a confirmation email once your return has been processed. We will endeavour to process refunds as quickly as possible, however, please allow up to 10 working days for your refund to be processed once it has been received by us. This period may increase during busy times, such as during sale.

Refunds will be credited to the original method of payment.
