Here at Living Flame we pride ourselves on excellent customer service. We know that you don’t want to wait days for your order to arrive. That’s why we send every order within the UK Mainland by DPD, Hermes or Royal Mail Second Class Post. Which means that, all being well, you should receive your parcel [the following working day after it has been dispatched or within 5 days]. [What’s more, any order that we receive before 3pm on a working day will be dispatched on that day or the next working day. However, although we promise to dispatch your order quickly, it should be remembered that delivery is not guaranteed within this timescale and parcels can occasionally take longer to reach their destinations. Parcels sent to Northern Ireland, the Isle of Man, Isles of Scilly, the Channel Islands, certain parts of Scotland, Europe and the rest of the world will usually take a little longer to arrive. There are certain items that we are unable to post overseas and if this is the case with any part of your order we will contact you by email.

Please note we have made every effort to make our shipping charges as accurate as possible, however occasionally the amount charged may be insufficient to cover the cost. If this is the case, you will be given the opportunity to either pay the additional amount or alternatively we can cancel your order and issue a full refund.
