A Goods Returns Authorisation Number (RAN) must be obtained from Energy Bulbs for each and every return so that we are able to process your return, otherwise we have no means of identifying the items being returned.

Before you return any item to us please follow our returns authorisation procedure by sending a ebay message We will provide you with a RAN and further information about where to post your returned item. Please note that a RAN is required before returning any order and we may refuse a return without a returns authorisation number.

Please place all returned goods with their original packaging and pack them securely enough that they are received by Energy Bulbs intact and with no loss or damage to the items.

A re-stocking fee may apply for returning unwanted items.

It is your responsibility to arrange and pay for the goods to be returned to us.

All refunds are processed using the same method by which the original payment was made. Refunds are processed as quickly as possible, and as required under Distance Selling Regulations, we will refund monies in full within 30 days of cancellation of your order.

Next Day Delivery orders need to be placed before 3pm unless stated on the product.

We will endeavour to dispatch all orders within two working days but on rare occasions some items maybe out of stock.  We will always endeavour to keep you informed of anticipated despatch dates if any delays do occur.  When we notify you of the estimated arrival date you will be able to decide whether or not to proceed with the order.

If we are unable to deliver within 28 days of ordering, we will always give you the option of receiving a full refund of any payments made.

Where stock is not immediately available we may dispatch a part shipment of any orders at our discretion or wait until we have received shipment of any out of stock items you have ordered, and dispatch the whole order together.

We make every effort to ensure that your order reaches you in one piece and on time. We cannot be held responsible for the rare occasions when transit results in the loss or damage of goods.

All of the delivery services that we use require a signature on delivery. If there is no one available at the delivery address, the courier company will leave a card asking you to contact them directly to either arrange to collect the parcel, or to arrange a second delivery attempt. If a second delivery attempt is also unsuccessful, then an additional charge is made for any further delivery attempts. You will be liable for this charge. If after seven days you have not contacted the courier company to make arrangements to either collect the parcel or for them to re-deliver, then the parcel is automatically returned to ourselves. If this happens, you will be liable for any return delivery costs and also for the cost of re-delivery.

Energy Bulbs cannot be held responsible for any delays in delivery and accepts no liability for costs incurred as a result of this.

We advise that all tradesmen, such as electricians, are only booked once goods have been received.
