If the purchaser do not receive an email please contact us at support@thebritishfoodstore.com and we will send the tracking number to you. Any problems with deliveries in Europe, The British Food Store will do everything we can fix or sort any issues with deliveries. Unfortunately due to language barriers and time zones we strongly recommend that the receiver contact their local DHL office to assist in any delivery problems, this is a much faster process rather than The British Food Store contacting DHL in Dublin to contact DHL in a different country, that could take days back and forward corresponding and this would not be ideal when chilled food is been delivered.

Any failed deliveries through no fault of our own or through no fault of DHL for example, wrong address given, refused delivery by the recipient or no one available to receive the package, the purchaser is liable for delivery charges. Any failed deliveries when it is our fault or the fault of DHL, we at The British Food Store will refund any ambient or none chilled products.
