AN IMPORTANT MESSAGE FOR OUR CUSTOMERS

We know how tough it is out there - in light of the recent events, we thought it best to keep you in the loop.

Our priority at this time is the health and safety of our customers and staff. Most of us are working from home, we are managing our staffing carefully and taking all of the health and hygiene precautions advised by the World Health Organisation.

All of this means that we can fulfill your orders and we are trading as normally as physically possible. If delays are likely, we will do our best to keep you updated but in the meantime, it’s business as usual. We still have lines of communication open with the customer care team who are working remotely but on hand to answer any queries you may have.

Thanks for your continued support - we will get through this together.

Stay safe, wash your hands and look after each other.

Stay strong.
Team Brown Bag

I have a discount code but it won’t work, why?

If we have sent you a code which have entered in the promo code box at the checkout and no discount is being applied please first of all check the term and conditions and the expiry date. Sometimes codes are brand specific or can only be used on full priced items.

If the code is for a delivery service please ensure you select the correct service to ensure the cost is deducted.

Finally, you can also only use one discount code per transaction.

If you have checked all of the above and still the code doesn’t work, please contact us with the code you have and the items you are trying to purchase.

My payment was declined but I have money in my account, why is this?

You may have entered the card details incorrectly or your bank may have declined the transaction due to security reasons. Please contact your bank to confirm this.

We also have in-house security checks. One of these is that the registered country for your card is the same country as your delivery address and IP address.

How do I know which size to get?

If you are unsure of the size you need we have a size guide for all the types of clothing and shoes plus tips for measuring yourself. For slim or skinny fit clothing you may want to go up a size but we offer size advise for each item in the description if the particular item under the tech heading.

My Brown Bag Account

I have forgotten my password, can this be reset?

3 for 2 Offer

How does 3 for 2 work?

It is simple. Products eligible for the 3 for 2 offer are shown in the 3 for 2 category and on our product listing pages have the 3 for 2 flag on the product image. Add any combination of 3 of these products to your basket and we’ll automatically add a discount to the total cost that is the equivalent of the cheapest product. If you add 4 products, it will apply a discount for the cheapest of the 4 products.

Can I use discount codes with 3 for 2?

No, unless expressly communicated, discount codes can not be used when making a 3 for 2 purchase.

What if I need to return on of the items?

If you return the free item, no refund will be issued. If you return one of the other items, you will be refunded the amount for that product, less the value of the free product at the time you purchased it. For example, if your basket contains an items for £100, £80 and £50, you will not pay for the £50 product. If you then return the £80 product, your refund will be £80, less the £50 for the free product, so the total refund will be £30.
