Customer Discounts/Offers

Wheelies offer a range of benefits to previous customers and promotional offers to both new and existing customers, these offers are not valid for items purchased as part of an insurance replacement. The following rules apply to website offers, promotions and existing customer benefits:

  • Discounts are ONLY redeemable for purchases made on this website (Wheelies.co.uk)
  • Discounts are only valid until the date published.
  • We reserve the right to end any website offers and promotions at any time including prior to the advertised end date without notice.

IMPORTANT: We try very hard to ensure that all information on this site is accurate. However, just occasionally, an error can occur. If we discover an error in the price or description of a product you have ordered, we may cancel your order at any time up to the point we send the product(s) to you. We will contact you where we become aware of an error and ask you whether you wish to continue with your order at the correct price or cancel it. If we do cancel your order you will receive a full refund of any charges paid in advance.

Existing customer benefits

Where you use a valid promotional code we have issued in conjunction with your purchase, the following additional terms and conditions apply:

  • Discounts will only be available on order values over the amount stated in the offer.
  • Only one Discount may be used per customer per transaction.
  • Existing customer benefits cannot be used in conjunction with website offers and promotions.
  • Customer benefits do not guarantee a discount on all products in your basket and the benefit applied will be the best we can offer up to the level of your benefit.

Website offers and promotions

Wheelies may run multiple promotions at any given time. Each promotion will be subject to its own rules which must be met in order to be redeemed in the checkout. In addition to the individual promotion rules the following rules also apply:

  • Website offers and promotions cannot be used in conjunction with existing customer benefits.
  • Where a customer is eligible for customer benefits and has a website offer or promotion in the basket, the higher of the two offers will apply.

As a company we have several divisions of the business, we are in the process of differentiating the insurance division from our mail order section. As a result of this we now have two separate websites.

The guidelines set out for validating insurance replacements are that all replacements are of like for like quality to the item/s lost and the costs are based on manufacturers suggested retail prices not sale or discounted prices.

The insurance replacement website www.wheeliesdirect.co.uk is tailored to comply with these guidelines and all prices advertised are manufacturers suggested retail prices.

All goods replaced as part of an insurance claim are sold at manufacturers suggested retail prices, however if you have exceeded the funds available towards the replacement any shortfall will be subject to the applicable discount as agreed by your insurance company. All prices on the Mail order website are not subject to any further discounting.

For this reason we will only work to the prices advertised on the Insurance replacement website www.wheeliesdirect.co.uk

Returning a product under the WEEE Regulations
What do the WEEE regulations mean?

The Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Directive is now UK law. The legislation aims to make producers pay for the collection, treatment and recovery of waste electrical equipment. The regulations also mean that suppliers of equipment like high street shops and internet retailers must allow consumers to return their waste equipment.

The amount of WEEE we throw away is increasing by around 5% each year, making it the fastest growing waste stream in the UK.

  • Much of the UK’s WEEE ends up in landfill, where the lead and other toxins it contains can cause soil and water contamination. This can have a harmful effect on natural habitat, wildlife and also human health.
  • Many electrical items that we throw away can be repaired or recycled. Recycling items helps to save our natural finite resources and also reduces the environmental and health risks associated with sending electrical goods to landfill.
Shops selling new Electric and Electronic Equipment (EEE) have a part to play in reducing the amount of WEEE going into landfill sites.

When you buy a new Electrical or Electronic product from us either online or in-store, we will take back your old item on a like-for-like basis. This will prevent it going into a landfill site by being disposed for recycling.

Customers must return their WEEE item to Wheelies within 28 days of purchasing their new item. You can either drop the product off in-store, or send the item, clearly marked as WEEE to Wheelies at:

Wheelies Direct Ltd
Kingsway
Swansea West Industrial Park
Swansea
SA5 4DL

If the item is too large, contact us to arrange a return. Please note that this is not a free service.

Disposing of electrical equipment?

There is of course no reason why you can’t drop off your old electrical equipment at a recycling site local to you, whether you have just bought a new item or want to get rid of old equipment regardless.

By taking your waste electrical products to one of the registered amenity sites, you can be confident that they will be subjected to a monitored and controlled recycling process, thereby preventing these products being sent to landfill. You can locate your closest participating collection site by entering your postcode at www.recycle-more.co.uk

How do I recognise WEEE products?

Under the WEEE Regulations, all new electrical goods should now be marked with the crossed-out wheeled bin symbol shown below which will help you identify products as WEEE.

WEE Recycling Logo

Goods are marked with this symbol to show that they were produced after 13th August 2005, and should be disposed of separately from normal household waste so that they can be recycled.
