Once you proceed to checkout and need to enter in personal details and submit payment, you will be asked to set up an account at this stage.

  8. How do I sign up for your newsletter?

    If you want to be kept informed of seasonal launches, special collections & collaborations, sale information and more, you will need to create an account. You don't have to buy anything, but when you do want to start shopping, your details are already on our system.

  9. Do you have a size guide/conversion charts?

    Yes, we have separate size guides for men's, women's and kids, as well as conversion charts for footwear and women's clothing. Sizing for accessories can be found on each individual product page, as every item is different.

  19. I have signed up to your newsletter, but don't seem to be receiving it

    The most common reason for this is your email software is marking mailers from Fred Perry as 'junk', which sends them to your junk/spam folder. Please add '[email protected]' to your email address book to stop this happening in the future. If this has already been done, and you are still not receiving our mailers, double check the email address you signed up with is your current address. Log into 'My Account' (try your current address or an old address), or contact Customer Services, who will do their best to help you.

  20. What are Verified by Visa and MasterCard SecureCode?

    Verified by Visa and MasterCard SecureCode protect your card twice when you shop online - firstly with a personal message, and secondly with your own secret password. If your card supports Verified by Visa or MasterCard SecureCode, and you have signed up for one of these schemes, a form should appear after you have entered your credit card details asking you to enter your password to confirm your identity.

    If you have not signed up for either scheme, a form may appear asking you to sign up with your bank. You can choose to do this immediately, or continue with your purchase and sign up later.

    If the form does not appear, your browser may be stopping it. If you find yourself waiting on the page that appears after you have entered your credit card details for more than a minute, please click the button to continue with 3D-Secure checks.

  6. I don't have a postcode - how do I place an order with you online?

  7. Can I cancel or change my order once it's been placed?

    Unfortunately we are unable to change or amend any orders once they have been placed.

    We can cancel your order, providing it hasn't been despatched from our warehouse. Please contact Customer Services, who will do their best to stop your parcel. If your item(s) has already been despatched, simply send it back to us by following our returns procedure.

  8. I have more than one order – can they be shipped together?

    Unfortunately we are unable to ship orders together as they are processed by our warehouse at different times.

  9. Can I ring Customer Services in the ecommerce department and place my order through them?

    Unfortunately our Customer Services team is unable to place orders over the phone. Please shop online at fredperry.com or visit one of our shops.

  10. How do I cancel my order under the Distance Selling Regulations?

    Under the EU Distance Selling Regulations, you have 7 working days (from the day after you receive your goods) to cancel the contract for your order with us. You must let us know in writing by email to [email protected], stating your wish to cancel the contract and ensuring you quote the order number in all correspondence. We will refund you the original purchase price and the delivery charge if applicable. If you have already received the goods, you will need to return the entire order at your cost or via Collect+, a free returns service offered to UK customers. If you are returning an item because of an error on our part or because it is faulty, we will be happy to refund your costs incurred in sending it back. For further information about making a return, please click here.

  11. I added an item to my bag and now it has disappeared

    If you are simply browsing our site and are not logged in, any item(s) placed in your bag will disappear after 1 hour. If, however, you are signed in to your account, any item(s) placed in your bag will stay for up to a month, but may become out of stock if the item is purchased by another customer.

  12. If I put something in my bag, is it reserved?

    No, if something is added to your bag it is not reserved. The item can be purchased by another customer if it is not purchased by you.

  13. I have ordered something but have previously seen it on your website at a different price?

    Unfortunately we do not offer price adjustments, so the price stated on the site at the time of purchase is the final price. Customers are welcome to return any item(s) for a refund.

  14. My payment has been declined

    Firstly, please check that the card details you entered are correct and the billing address matches up exactly with the information held by your card issuer. If the problem still occurs then please try another card. If you are still experiencing a problem after trying both of these options, then please contact Customer Services.

  15. What happens if the payment screen is timing out or appears frozen?

    In a small number of cases, this may occur when connecting to your card issuer's page during their additional security check, and is probably due to your preferences set with your current browser. Please try using another browser, such as Firefox, Internet Explorer or Safari. If you are still having problems then please contact Customer Services, making sure your contact details are included and as many of the following details as possible:

    1. Your Operating System (e.g. Windows 7, Mac OS X)
    2. Internet Browser (Internet Explorer 8, Firefox, Safari, Chrome)
    3. The URL you were trying to access (e.g. https://www.fredperry.com/ae-en/checkout/onepage/declined/)
    4. What time the problem occurred
    5. Any error message that appeared on screen (simply cut and paste into your correspondence)
  16. I have tried to place an order and haven't had an order confirmation but money has left my account

    Please contact Customer Services, who will check to see whether your order has been placed successfully. If you failed to reach the order confirmation screen (and receive an order number), it is likely that your order has not been successful. If this is the case and money has been removed from your account, please be assured that it will be returned. The funds will be on hold with your bank, and they will release them back into your account in due course. Fred Perry will only keep the funds if an order number is produced, and a successful order placed.

  17. Do I have to pay for delivery?

    Delivery costs vary depending on which country your order is delivered to and the delivery method that you select.

Alternatively log in to 'My Account', where the status of your order will say 'complete' instead of 'processing'. Click on 'View Order' against this order to find you’re tracking number, which you can then use to track your parcel on the DPD or UPS websites.

  19. How long will I have to wait for my order to arrive?

    This will depend on the delivery method chosen and the delivery destination.

    When selecting a delivery option during checkout you will be provided with the estimated delivery date for your order.

  20. Do you deliver to BFPO addresses?

    Unfortunately we’re currently unable to deliver to British Forces Post Office Boxes. We’re working hard to offer this service in the near future.

  21. Will I be charged import duty?

    We ship to all countries outside of the EU on a DDU basis (Delivery Duty Unpaid). This means that you are liable for any local sales taxes or import duties which may be charged on your item(s). We have no control over these charges and cannot confirm how much the charges may be. You are also responsible for providing any information required by customs to ensure the goods are cleared. Occasionally goods may be subject to delays, due to customs or weather.

    Fred Perry cannot be held responsible should local customs authorities wish to confiscate any items or charge any import duty. As the customer, you are responsible for paying the duty.

    Customs policies vary widely from country to country so we recommend you contact your local customs office for more information.

  22. What do I do if my order hasn't been delivered after the specified time?

    Late deliveries could be due to a number of reasons. In the first instance please check to see where your parcel is with DPD or UPS. Log in to 'My Account', click on 'View Order', and then use your tracking number to track your parcel on their respective websites. The tracking information will state if there is an issue with your order. If it has left our warehouse, and you feel it's 'severely overdue' please contact Fred Perry Customer Services, quoting your order number, and we will investigate further.

  23. Do I have to sign for my parcel?

    Yes, all deliveries require a signature.

  24. What if I am out when the courier tries to deliver?

    If you are out when DPD or UPS try to deliver, they will leave a card which contains their contact information and details about how to receive or request a re-delivery. Please contact DPD or UPS directly to organise a convenient re-delivery date.

  25. Can I send my parcel to a different address?

    Yes, you have the option when ordering to choose a different delivery address to your billing address. After entering your billing address during step 1 of the checkout process, choose 'ship to different address'. Then continue to step 2, entering in your shipping/delivery information.

  26. Can I have my items delivered to more than one address in the same order?

    No, you can only enter in one delivery address per order. If you need to enter in different delivery destinations you will have to place a separate order for each shipping address.

  27. My delivery is missing an item

    Please contact Customer Services, stating the style/colour that is missing, your full name, contact details and order number, so that we can look into this urgently.

  28. I have received a faulty item

    We want all our customers to be completely satisfied with their goods, so if you believe there is a fault with an item you have received, please contact Customer Services, stating the style/colour of the faulty item, your full name, contact details and order number, so that we can look into this immediately and get an alternative sorted out for you.

  29. I have received an incorrect item in my order

    If you have received an incorrect item in your order, please contact Customer Services as soon as possible.

  30. Is the delivery cost per item or per order?

    The delivery cost is per order.

  31. Can I have a VAT receipt/invoice for items purchased online?

    No. Unfortunately, VAT receipts/invoices are not available for items purchased online.

  32. Can I claim VAT back on my purchase made online?

    No. Due to restrictions imposed by our tax authorities, VAT refunds are not available to customers that have purchased Fred Perry goods via the internet.

Returns & Exchanges

  1. What is your returns policy?

    At Fred Perry we want you to be delighted every time you shop with us. Occasionally though, we know you may wish to change your mind.

    If you need to return an unused item you can do so within 28 days after delivery, for an exchange or refund as required. We will refund the monetary value of the items returned to us, at the price you purchased them, together with the delivery charges (if applicable). Though, if you chose a faster delivery option, you will only get the basic cost of delivery returned to you.

    Under the EU Distance Selling Regulations, you have 7 working days (from the day after you receive your goods) to cancel the contract for your order with us. You must let us know in writing by email to Customer Services, stating your wish to cancel the contract and ensuring you quote the order number in all correspondence. We will refund you the original purchase price and any delivery charges if applicable. If you have already received the goods, you will need to return the entire order at your cost or via Collect+, a free returns service offered to UK customers.

    The goods must be returned in the same condition as received and if possible with all packaging. Please note that we do not offer refunds or exchanges on our swimwear items, unless faulty. Fred Perry reserves the rights to refuse a refund or exchange if the goods returned are deemed to have been damaged, worn or tampered with. This does not affect your statutory rights.

    If you are returning an item because of an error on our part or because it is faulty, we will be happy to refund your costs incurred in sending it back.

    Please note that we are only able to exchange an item for the same style in a different colour/size.

  2. How do I return items via Collect+ (UK only)?

    Return your unwanted items as conveniently as possible at a Collect+ Drop Point in one of 7,000 local corner shops, shopping centres and petrol stations. With many Drop Points open 7 days a week with flexible hours, Collect+ offers a simple alternative to the Post Office at absolutely no cost.

    To return your unwanted items through Collect+:

  6. Why wasn't I refunded the delivery charge when my return was processed?
