By virtue of the Distance Selling Regulations once the goods have been dispatched we are exempt from giving cancellation rights as the goods we are providing are perishable with a limited life expectancy.


Creative Balloons cannot be held responsible for extremes of temperature and weather conditions that could affect the inflation properties of the gas or for orders delayed through circumstances beyond our control, for example by extremely bad weather, Royal Mail strikes, Airport staff strikes, Terrorist attacks / Prevention or war.
Royal Mail does transport some of its post by air within the UK and may store parcels in cold temperatures, this may cause the helium to deflate, when placed in a warm environment the helium expands again. Unfortunately we are unable to prevent this from occurring and cannot be held responsible.

 

Claims for gifts that are delivered damaged must be reported within 2 days of delivery date. If you do not return the goods to us for inspection we will be unable to issue a refund or replacement.

We cannot guarantee the time period that the balloon will stay inflated for, but the average time for an 18 inch balloon is approx 6-8 days, and in many cases longer, however much depends upon the environment it is in. The balloon may deflate slightly if the temperature drops, however, as the temperature of the room increases, the helium in the balloon will expand and the balloon will fill once again.

Privacy – we may wish to contact you using the email, postal address or telephone number you supply. If you do not wish to be contacted, please email balloongifts@creativeballoons.net to advise. We will not pass this information on to any other individual or business.
