Delivery under Special Circumstances

Woolworths online delivery process during Covid-19

As the Covid-19 (coronavirus) situation continues to develop, the safety of our customers, our employees and our delivery partners remains our primary concern. For all online orders, Woolworths is taking precautionary measures to reduce the risk of virus transmission. Here are some changes that are taking or have taken effect from 16 March 2020.

No contact delivery

When our drivers arrive at your delivery address, they have been instructed to ring the bell, and stand back at a safe distance.

As a precaution, during this time we will package your order in bags so that you don’t need to handle any delivery containers.

The drivers will place the bags at your door and wait for you to answer.

The driver will then record your name, with the date and time of delivery in front of you, so you won’t need to sign any paperwork.

You then collect your items and head back indoors; the driver will take any delivery containers and head off.

Delivery within 48 hour window impacted as a result of 1.) Delivery location placed under Red Zone Quarantine, due to Covid preventative measures initiated by the Government or 2.) Access to our business operations is prohibited due to a cyclone warning and preventative measures initiated by the Government:

· The order will be processed and kept in storage, until the Red Zone quarantine is lifted.

· Customer will have the option to request their order to be picked up in WW Bagatelle by another authorised person, or specify another delivery address not impacted by quarantine.

· Our Online support team will be in contact to make the necessary arrangements.

· If order processing and delivery is impacted due to cyclone preventative measure – our online service team will be in contact to make alternative arrangements when it’s safe to do so.

· The new delivery time slot may be outside of the committed 48 hours as a result, and Woolworths Mauritius may not be held liable for any losses in these special circumstances.

Should no-one be in attendance at the time of delivery, the driver will keep the products and leave a notice. The driver will try to contact you to make new arrangements for delivery or collection. Our liability for any delay in delivery is limited to re-delivery at a later agreed time at no additional charge.

We have outsourced all delivery and collection arrangements to third party service providers. Accordingly, we cannot, to the extent permitted by law, be liable for any loss or damage caused by them.

A delivery fee of Rs 250.00 will be charge per order. Purchases over Rs 2500.00 will be delivered free of charge. Delivery fee may vary pending location, if outside of Mauritius.

Returns & Refunds

If you are for any reason dissatisfied with any item purchased online, you may return it to any Woolworths store within 60 days from date of purchase for a full refund, replacement or exchange, provided you have the original tax invoice, and it is in a saleable condition. Should you not have an invoice, we will be happy to exchange your purchase at the current system price. For hygiene reasons underwear (excluding bras) and earrings for pierced ears may not be returned or exchanged.

Please note that that should you want to change your order, after payment but before delivery – you would need to contact us to initiate a refund online. Note, this option is only available if your order has not yet been delivered.

Need to bring back a sale item? No problem. Bring it back in a saleable condition along with your tax invoice within 10 days of the last date of the final reduction price, unless there is a quality issue, days and we’ll be happy to exchange it or give you back your money. If you don’t have your tax invoice, we’ll exchange your purchase at our current system price.

Cancellation

If for any reason you would like to cancel an order, this may be done by contacting our Customer Services Centre on WW Bagatelle Online: +230 404-6097 / OnlineBagatelle@woolworths.co.za

You will only be able to cancel orders before delivery has taken place. We may debit your payment card for the delivery fees in respect of any late cancellations. If you cancel your payment for any reason or if your payment card should cease to be valid for whatever reason, you will remain liable for the full purchase price, including all related costs. We reserve the right to cancel any sale and/or your registration in the event of a breach of any of these or the General Terms.

Risk and Ownership

Risk in the products shall pass to you or your authorised representative on delivery. We will retain ownership of the products until payment is received in full.
