RETURN AND REFUND POLICY
Effective Date: April 2025
At drinkvalencia.com, we prioritise customer satisfaction. Every product is created and packed with care, but in rare cases things may not go as expected. This Return and Refund Policy explains when and how you can request returns, replacements, or refunds. Please read this document carefully before completing your purchase.
1. ELIGIBILITY FOR RETURN
For reasons of hygiene, safety, and personal use, items may be returned only in the following cases:
- The wrong product was delivered
- The product arrived in a damaged or leaking condition
- The product was delivered in an incomplete order
- The product was faulty or expired
We will not process returns if a customer simply expresses personal preference about the product (for example, taste or flavour preference) once the item has been opened or used.
Note: To be eligible for return, the merchandise must be unused, in its original packaging, and with all labels and safety seals intact.
2. TIMEFRAME FOR RETURNS
To request a return or replacement, please contact us within:
- 48 hours of receiving the order for damaged, missing, or incorrect items
- 7 days from the delivery date for all other valid return concerns as per Section 1
Requests raised outside these timelines may not be eligible for processing.
3. HOW TO INITIATE A RETURN
To start a return, please email us at drinkvalencia@valencianutrition.com with the following details:
- Your order number
- Photographs or video of the product and outer packaging (especially in case of damage, leakage, or wrong item)
- A brief description of the issue
Our support team will verify the claim and respond within 2 business days with the next steps.
If approved, we will arrange a reverse pickup through our logistics partner (wherever serviceable). If reverse pickup is not available in your area, you may be requested to courier the item back to us; in such cases, the courier cost treatment will be communicated in advance.
4. RETURN SHIPPING
- If there is damage, defect, or an order error from our side: return shipping will be provided free of cost against approved return requests.
- Returns initiated voluntarily by customers (if allowed): return shipping charges may be borne by the customer.
Products must be securely packed to prevent damage during transit. drinkvalencia.com is not responsible for any returns that are damaged or lost in transit due to improper packing.
5. REFUNDS
Once we receive the returned item and complete quality inspection, you will be notified of the approval or rejection of your refund request.
If approved:
- Prepaid orders: Refund will be credited back to the original payment method (credit/debit card, UPI, net banking, etc.) within 7–10 business days, subject to your bank’s processing timelines.
- Cash-on-delivery orders: Refund will be issued either as store credit (wallet) or bank transfer, as communicated and agreed with you.
An email/SMS notification will be sent once the refund process has been completed.
6. REPLACEMENTS
For damaged, expired, or incorrect products, you may opt for a free replacement instead of a refund, subject to stock availability.
If the replacement product is not available, a refund will be processed for the eligible amount or a suitable alternative product may be offered, based on your preference.
7. PRODUCTS NOT ELIGIBLE FOR RETURN
Returns will not be accepted in the following cases:
- Products that have been opened, used, or partially consumed
- Items with tampered, broken, or missing safety seals or packaging
- Free samples or complimentary gifts
- Promotional kits or combo packs, unless the entire set is returned sealed and unused
- Products purchased under clearance, final sale, or special promotion (unless received damaged or defective)
- Products returned without original invoice, packaging, or proof of purchase
8. CANCELLATION POLICY
You may cancel your order within 1 hour of placing it, as long as it has not yet been shipped. To do so, please email drinkvalencia@valencianutrition.com or contact our customer support team. Once the order has been dispatched, it can no longer be cancelled but may still be eligible for return as per this policy.
9. STORE CREDIT
Where applicable, you may choose to receive your refund as Drink Valencia Wallet Credit instead of a bank/card refund. Store credit:
- Can be used for future purchases on drinkvalencia.com
- Is issued instantly after approval of the return/refund request
- Does not expire within the validity period communicated at the time of issuance
