REFUND
POLICY

Our Commitment

At Sock Club, we want you to be completely satisfied with your subscription. While the surprise element means you don't choose specific designs, we stand behind the quality of every pair of socks we deliver.

When Refunds Apply

Defective Products

In terms of the Consumer Protection Act, you are entitled to return defective goods within 6 months of delivery. A product is considered defective if it:

• Has manufacturing defects (holes, loose threads, uneven stitching)
• Is materially different from what was described
• Is not fit for the purpose of socks (e.g., wrong sizing consistently)
• Is damaged upon arrival

Defective Product Remedies

For defective products, you may choose:

Non-Delivery Refunds

If your order is not delivered:

• Contact us if your order hasn't arrived within 10 business days of the expected delivery window
• We will investigate with our courier partner
• If confirmed lost, you will receive a replacement or full refund

What We Cannot Refund

• Design preferences: As our socks are randomly selected, we cannot refund based on colour, pattern, or style preferences
• Change of mind: After receiving non-defective products
• Used products: Socks that have been worn or washed (except for quality verification)
• Partial months: No pro-rata refunds for subscription cancellation mid-cycle
