Help & Contact

Got a question? Some of the most common and their answers are listed below.

 

Q How do I return an item?

A Please return products to.

  • Website Returns
  • Sportsdirect.com
  • Unit A, Brook Park
  • Shirebrook
  • NG20 8RY

 

Please include your invoice clearly stating the reason for return and whether you require a refund or exchange.

 

We advise that you send items back via Royal Mail recorded delivery, which you will have to pay for but this will ensure that it arrives with us.

 

As soon as we receive your item back it will be processed for an exchange/refund as requested

 

Unfortunately unwanted online orders cannot be returned back to our stores for a refund but can be returned to our stores for an exchange providing that they are unused and you have the packaging and any tags still attached. For information on your nearest store please visit our storefinder find a store here section on our website.

 

Q Can I make changes to my order?

A Unfortunately once an order has been placed we are unable to make any amendments or additions to it.

 

Your order will be processed and you will receive an e-mail as soon as it has been dispatched. Upon delivery, if any items are unsuitable, please follow the returns instructions on the invoice you receive with your order.

 

Q Why has an item been cancelled from my order?

A Items will be cancelled from your order if we are unable to locate them during our picking process. The most common reason is that we no longer have that item in stock.

 

Our website is updated on a regular basis and all items advertised online are in stock at the time of an update. Unfortunately on very rare occasions where we have small quantities of a particular item, orders placed between updates may exceed the quantity of items we have available. In such circumstances we will allocate goods to the customers who ordered the items first.

 

You will not be charged for any items that have been cancelled and any authorisations for payment made at the time of placing the order will automatically be cleared by your bank. This process will take up to 5 days depending on your bank?s procedures.

 

Q My parcel is shown as having been delivered but I have not received it.

A If our courier was unable to reach you when they tried to deliver your goods, they may have delivered the parcel to one of your neighbours. You should have received a card from the courier explaining this. If having tried your neighbours your parcel is still missing, please contact us by following the instructions in our contact us section and we will investigate further.

 

Q My order has been cancelled but it appears that I have still been charged.

A As with the majority of online retailers, once your have entered your payment details your bank will place an authorisation against that full order amount in your account. This will show as a pending amount on your statement but will not actually be taken by us.

 

As soon as we cancel an order we automatically send information to your bank to ask them to release any outstanding authorisation. Depending on an individuals bank this process takes between 1-5 working days.

 

Q My bank is showing two charges for my order.

A As with the majority of online retailers, once your have entered your payment details your bank will place an authorisation against that full order amount in your account. This will show as a pending amount on your statement but will not actually be taken by us.

 

We will only take money for the items that we send you and this is done at the time of dispatch. Therefore, if we have had to cancel any items from your order, the money we take will be less than the amount which has been authorised by your bank and will be taken as a separate amount. This is why it appears that you have been charged twice for your order. As soon as payment was taken we would have automatically sent information to your bank to ask them to release any outstanding authorisation. Depending on an individuals bank this process takes between 1-5 working days.

 

Q Where is my order?

A You can track the progress of your UK delivery orders by going into your online account and visiting the previous orders section. Delivery can be checked by following the link within the e-mail you were sent to confirm dispatch of your goods.  

 

Q Where is my order (overseas deliveries only)?

A If you have arranged delivery of your goods to an address outside the UK, your delivery arrangement will be with Etail Services Limited. Please click here to be directed to their FAQs. Sportsdirect does not currently deliver outside the UK.  

 

Q Part of my order is missing

A Sometimes your goods will be delivered on different dates, so first of all, check your delivery note or despatch emails to see if any of your items will be arriving separately. You will not be charged any additional postage costs. If there is a 0 in the despatch quantity column on your invoice this means that unfortunately we did not have the stock of the item to send to you. If the delivery note says an item should be in your parcel but it isn't, please use our contact form to get in touch with us letting us know which item(s) you believe are missing.

If you registered an account prior to 2009 you may not have this set up. If you are unable to remember your password you will need to contact  Customer Services who will reset it for you. After that you will be able to re-assign a new password at your leisure.

Placing Orders

 

Placing Your Order for goods                                                                                                         Back to Top

Once you have your items in your basket, you can then increase the quantity by entering the desired amount in the Quantity field. Please note that if you require more than 10 of an item you will need to contact our Customer Service department to enable your account to allow this. The procedure is very quick and simple and is in place for your security.

 

Clicking on the Proceed to Checkout button on the basket screen then takes you to the Shipping Confirmation page where you can select the correct UK delivery and billing address for this order. If you are ordering from overseas you can contract with Etail Services Limited for their delivery service via the Shipping Confirmation page or select another delivery option. Please note that the billing address must match the details for the card that is being used. Once you have chosen the delivery method and clicked on the Proceed to Payment button. This will take you through to the Payment Page.

  

Payment Options                                                                                                                                Back to Top

The Payment Pages used at FieldAndTrek.com are secure and you can safely enter your card details to pay for your order. We accept the following methods of payment:

 

Please select the desired payment option and proceed to the next page where you will enter the card details. Based on the type of card you are using for payment, you may then be asked to enter further details to enhance the security of the transaction. This request of information comes direct from your card issuer and relates to a password that identifies you as the authorised user of the card. If you do not have a password set up you can do so online during the transaction.

 

All credit and debit card holders are subject to validation and authorisation by both us and the card issuer, to maintain security and prevent fraud. Internet Fraud is Illegal and perpetrators will be prosecuted in all cases.

 

Payment Authentication                                                                                                                    Back to Top

Verified by Visa (VbV) and MasterCard SecureCode (MSC) often referred to as 3D Secure or Payment Authentication, and are the latest fraud prevention initiatives launched by the card issuers as a more secure method for authenticating you the cardholder at the time of the transaction. Both schemes work in the same way - by using personal passwords, set by the cardholder, to protect you when you shop online. The instructions that you see on the payment screens are coming directly from your card issuer.

 

How do I Activate my Card?

Most customers register their Visa or MasterCard direct with their card issuer however if you have not registered your card previously the instructions will prompt you to do so. The secure window will ask you to enter your card details, and set a password. Once your card is activated you will only be prompted for your password when paying with this card in the future online at participating retailers.

 

Who do I Contact for Further Information?

You should have received a communication from your card issuing bank explaining the 3D Secure process and inviting you to register your card, if you require more detailed information please contact them direct about 3D Secure and Payment Authentication. You can also visit the Visa or MasterCard websites for further information.

If you have a problem with your authentication password it is important that you contact your card issuer for further details. Unfortunately we have no control over this process and so will not be able to help with any authentication issues or enquiries.

 

Taking Payment                                                                                                                                 Back to Top

Please note that we will not take payment for any item until it has been despatched. We will however take an Authorisation. This will show on your bank statement as a reservation of funds which allocates the money to your order but this will not be realised until we have despatched your items to the courier. In the event of us not being able to fulfil your order we will immediately request that your bank cancels the authorisation. If the authorisation still remains after several days, please contact your bank to request that they act upon our cancellation of the payment.

 

Discounts                                                                                                                                             Back to Top

You are able to apply discounts to your order by adding voucher codes in the Shipping Confirmation Page. Once added, the value of the discount will be shown against the relevant products. These codes are usually promotional offers sent to the customers who subscribe to our newsletter emails.
