You can check the status of your order at any time in the "My Account" section which you can sign into at the top right of this page. This will also show shipment/courier tracking information.

Once you have created an account, you will be able to log into My Account at any time. This is your own user area where you will be able to view all your orders and their processing status. You can also edit your shipping and billing information from here.
You cannot change your email address once you have used it to register. If you have a change of email address in this case you will need to create a new account.

Q: Can I change my delivery address after I have placed my order?
Unfortunately once you have placed your order it is processed immediately, therefore is not possible to amend.
Q: What is the delivery process and what happens if I am not in to accept my delivery?
We attempt to deliver your parcel up to 3 times to the shipping address you have provided. It is the customers responsibility to ensure that someone will be in at the time of delivery at the shipping address provided. If you are not in to accept your delivery, your parcel will usually make its way back via the couriers network and be sent back to us at our returns address. This is our normal procedure.
On some occasions the driver may leave it with a neighbour or in a hidden place if they feel it is safe to do so. If so, a note will be posted through your door to let you know this has been done.
Please be advised that if your parcel gets sent back to us a re-delivery charge will apply of the same shipping rate. We have to pay for all individual parcels we post, each time it is posted. If the parcel cannot be delivered due to the customer not being in or able to collect it then the cost falls upon the customer for re-delivery. This is why we always suggest providing a delivery address where you know someone will be in, for example, a workplace.
Q: Can my order be delivered to a different address other than my home?
We always advise you have your order delivered to a workplace or where you know someone will most likely be in to take your parcel during the hours of 8.30am to 5.30pm Monday to Friday. However the delivery address you provide is entirely up to you. If we use Royal Mail to send your parcel, some deliveries may also be made on a Saturday, depending on which day your order was placed.
Q: It has been over the approximate delivery times and I have not yet received my order. What do I do?
Although not often, on rare occasions parcels do get lost in transit and this could be what has happened.
If you feel this is the case then please email us at customer.support@ashu.co.uk as soon as the approximate delivery time has passed, ensuring you state your A-SHU order number and order details. We always aim to respond to emails within 1-2 working days.
Kindly bare in mind that different couriers have different rules and policies for lost/missing/delayed parcels and we do need to follow these but we promise we will act as quickly and as efficiently as possible for you.
If you have not received your parcel it is your responsibility to let us know; if you do not contact us within 30 days of non-receipt of your dispatched parcel we cannot issue any refund or exchange as the time frame for submitting a lost parcel claim would have lapsed with the couriers therefore please ensure you do contact us within this time.
We do not allow customers to proceed with placing their order until they have read our terms and conditions. All of the above is outlined in our terms and conditions which you agree to having read and accepted upon placing your order.
Q: What is the Returns Policy?
We try our best to ensure your complete satisfaction with your purchase and want to offer you the highest standard of customer service.
- All unworn goods may be returned to us in the original packaging, along with your email eReceipt, within 14 days of receipt. For hygiene reasons this does not include earrings. Any other products excluded from this policy will be stated on the item description.
- Once we receive the goods, they will be inspected and a full refund (excluding the original delivery charge) will be provided.
- For your peace of mind you will receive a personal email from one of our team confirming that the refund has been processed within 5 working days from receipt of your returned goods. During busy periods this may take slightly longer.
- Refunds will be provided in the manner in which the payment was made, on the same payment card.
- Please be advised that we strongly recommend you post the goods back to us via Tracked Delivery (for example Royal Mail Recorded Delivery, Evri, Collect+) or similar. The goods are your responsibility until they reach us, therefore we cannot be held responsible for items lost in the post.
- Please note that the cost of returning items to us is your responsibility.
- If you are returning an item which you redeemed with a voucher code promotion then the refund on the cost of the voucher will come directly from the voucher company as the voucher would have been purchased on their website. We will advise you when we have received your returned item back. You will then need to email their customer services to request the refund on the cost of your voucher. They will then confirm with our customer services that we have received your item back and refund you accordingly.
The A-SHU.CO.UK return address is as follows: A-SHU.CO.UK Returns, 20 Glebe Road, Surrey, SM2 7NT, U.K.
On the reverse of your paperwork, please indicate the reason for your returns (this is purely used for feedback purposes).
Q: What if I would like an Exchange instead?
At present we do not offer "exchanges" as such as our admin system does not allow this functionality. However to get around this, simply return your unwanted item as per above, and then place a new order as normal.
Q: What happens if I do not return items as per the Returns Policy?
If items are returned to us outside the 14 day returns policy, we reserve the right to make a late fee charge of £3.00 per returned item.
Please also be advised that items must be returned in their original packaging; if they are not returned in their original packaging you will incur a £3.00 fee per returned item.
In any case, late returns must be made within 14 to 28 days - no returns will be accepted after a 28 day period.
If items returned to us are not received i.e. lost in transit, we cannot issue a refund or exchange. You will need to contact the delivery company you used for further information on sending a lost parcel.
Q: I received a Faulty Item. What do I do?
We apologise if any item you received was faulty. In this case please email us straight away at customer.support@ashu.co.uk quoting your order number and contact details. Please state in which way the item is faulty and if possible email us images of the fault so we can advise you further. We aim to get back to you within 1-2 working days.
We have a strict procedure to follow for returning faulty items so please do not post the item back yourself before contacting us, otherwise we will not be able to compensate the return shipping cost.
Please note, as a consumer you are entitled to return a faulty item to us within 30 days of your order date. After 30 days have passed we are not able to offer any exchanges or refunds and the item will not be accepted back by our supplier as this is the time frame for consumers to return faulty products. This does not affect your statutory rights.
We do not allow customers to proceed with placing their order until they have read our terms and conditions. All of the above is outlined in our terms and conditions which you agree to having read and accepted upon placing your order.
