Usually you would only see the 'we're expecting it' message for a short period of time, but there may be occasions where it takes a few days before progressing further.

Otherwise, if your order is taking longer than you've been advised and your order has not progressed please get in touch with our Customer Service team so we can help you further.

We try and process all returns as quickly as possible for you to get your refund. If you arranged your return on our returns portal you should receive a ‘Your return has been received’ email within a week of having returned the item but it takes longer sometimes.

Please allow up to 14 days for your items to be inspected and any refunds to be issued. You'll usually be able track the progress of your return, if you have tracking details from the carrier.

If your order was paid part or in full by a gift card or a eVoucher, the refund will be issued as a gift card or eVoucher up to the value of the gift card you used. At which point, any funds owed that are remaining will be refunded onto the other payment methods used. If you haven't received your eVoucher please check your junk folder for an 'Order refunded' email.

In most cases, yes. Your preferred delivery address: 

• needs to be a registered UK property.
• needs to be provided during the checkout process

You will not be able to nominate an alternative delivery address after you place your order.

If you'd like your order to be delivered to a UK business address, please bear in mind that the delivery company will need easy access to the premises and a safe location to park the delivery vehicle. There must also be someone available to accept the goods upon delivery. To avoid disappointment, we would recommend you only choose a delivery address that is accessible 7 days a week, between 8am to 8pm.

Please note - If you're a new Studio Pay customer, who hasn't received & paid for your first orders, for security reasons your first deliveries must go to the billing address.

We're sorry to hear that you've not received your parcel. It may be that the delivery driver has delivered the parcel to a safe place or neighbour. 

Please check around the outside of your property, the parcel may have been left in a safe place. It's also worth checking the delivery information within the tracking, as any delivery images captured by the driver may help you identify where the parcel has been left. 

We would also ask that you check with your neighbours as the driver may have left the parcel with them.

If you still need some help after checking the above, please contact Customer Service and we'll be happy to help you.

Sorry, but we are unable to deliver outside of the UK.

We allow deliveries within the UK, including Northern Ireland.

Please note, we are no longer able to deliver to British Forces Post Office (BFPO) locations.

For further information on deliveries, including details regarding remote areas of the UK, please check our Deliveries page.

Sometimes there might be problems finding or accessing the delivery address, and if the attempts are unsuccessful, the order will be returned.

Occasionally, an order gets damaged in transit and can't be delivered.

You should be able to check the reason why it's been returned by using the tracking link you got in the dispatch email.

If, for any reason they are unsuccessful, they will leave a calling card informing you your order is being returned to us. 

Unfortunately, an order that has been returned to us by the courier can’t be re-directed out to our customers again, but will be refunded in full once the warehouse team has processed it. 

If you require the items, we would ask you to place a new order.

Once you've placed your order we will send you an order confirmation email, detailing what you bought, cost and delivery option.

I need to cancel my order

Once you've placed your order, it immediately begins processing through the system so that we can get it to you as fast as possible.

Depending on the status of your order, we may be able to cancel it for you. Please contact Customer Service so we can check this further for you.

If your order has already been shipped or started going through our automated fulfilment process, we will not be able to cancel it for you. Please refer to our returns policy for details on how to return your order once received.

I need to change the address

We cannot change your delivery address once your order is placed. If you're concerned about being unavailable, some delivery partners may leave your parcel with a neighbour or in a safe location. Use the ‘Click to track order’ button in your ‘Order shipped’ email to check if these options are available.

If you can no longer access the address you chose, please contact Customer Service and we will ask our delivery partner to return your order back to us for a full refund. Please note, if this is possible, it can take up to 14 days. If you still want your order, you will need to place it again as we can only ship to the address entered at checkout.

I need to change my order

Once an order has been submitted, we cannot make any changes to it, this includes:

• Adding or removing items
• Changing colours or sizes
• Changing the delivery options
• Applying promotional discounts
• Changing the email address entered for this order

We only take payment for an item after it has been processed. However, in the interim before processing, we will take an authorisation. An authorisation will show on your bank statement as a reservation of funds that allocates the money to your order. The funds are then debited when we have processed your item(s) for delivery. Sometimes this shows up as two charges and will correct itself within 2-3 working days. 

In the event of us not being able to fulfil your order we immediately contact your bank to request that your bank cancels the authorisation. If the authorisation still remains after several days, please contact your bank to request that they act upon our cancellation of the payment.

Yes, you can.

We don't offer a 'guest checkout', so keep in mind when you first order from us you'll need to let us know some of your details so we can create an online profile & account for you. This just means you'll be able login to keep an eye on your orders, plus it'll make it easier for you to place any future orders.

The checkout journey will also ask you how you'd prefer to pay for your order. This is where you can choose to set up a Studio Pay credit account, or to pay during checkout.

If you choose to pay during checkout and realise at a later date that you'd prefer to have a credit account instead, you'll be able to pick this option next time you place an order.

Payment authentication or 3D secure are fraud prevention initiatives launched by card issuers.

Verified by VISA (VbV) and MasterCard Secure Code (MSC) work in the same way, using passwords that you set up with the card provider to protect you when you shop online. You will then be required to enter your password during the payment process when you shop with us.

How do I activate my card?

You register your card on your card provider's site by selecting the option to set up payment authentication. You will be prompted to enter your card details and set a password. Once you have registered your card, when you shop online in the future you will only have to enter your password.

Who do I contact for further information?

If you require more information around the payment authentication process, please contact your card issuer directly.

If your card is rejected by our online payment processing system, please double check that all of the details entered are matching your billing information.

If you are sure you are using a valid card, please try again with the same credit or debit card or place the order again using a different card. If the problem persists, please contact your card provider.

We have no control over the payment authentication process so we will be unable to assist with any authentication inquiries.

Please note your order will only be processed once we have received authorisation from your payment card issuer to process the payment.

You may be looking at a promotion price that has since expired.

For online orders, we may occasionally adjust the pricing of items for short term promotions such as daily deals. Such pricing is only available for a brief period of time. To understand when the promotion ends, you can usually see this in the promotion banner on our website or on any promotional emails that you may have received..

Additionally, please note that some products feature different pricing per size / colour / style etc.

Please be aware that we cannot retrospectively change or negotiate the pricing of items within your order. We will also not be able to honour promotions that have since expired.

We make every effort to keep your shopping experience as easy and accurate as possible for you, but if you do experience a problem with item pricing from how a price is displayed on the website compared to what you are seeing during checkout. Please contact us so we can investigate this further.

If you are experiencing issues when applying a Gift Card or eVoucher, that can be due to a few reasons:

• Gift cards and eVouchers are valid for two years after their purchase. Any remaining balance will be cancelled on the expiration date of the card.
• Gift cards and eVouchers cannot be used by customers outside of the United Kingdom.
• The website crashing on a previous checkout attempt.
• If you were paying for part of the order with a different payment method (such as a credit or debit card) and then encountered an issue at your banks side relating to that payment attempt.

Sadly this means the Gift card/eVoucher will be temporarily frozen, please allow 48 hours for it to reset and then try again. Our customer service team are unable to speed this along.

Please note: If you have a Love2Shop flexecash gift card, you can buy Sports Direct eVouchers using your Love2Shop Flexecash Gift Card, via the Love2shop Manage My Account page ( www.love2shop.co.uk/login ).

• The items are not available for shipping out of the UK
• The billing address doesn't match the details your payment provider has on records.

You will receive an 'Order cancelled' email to confirm which items have been cancelled and the pending payment amount will be released to your original payment methods. Please allow 2-5 working days for this to be cleared.

Our Customer Service teams are also impacted by the same delay so are also unable to schedule a return which is experiencing this problem.

Why are energy ratings changing?

Prior to 2021 the products would have been rated between A for high efficiency, and an F for low efficiency. However, the rating system became complicated as more efficient models were introduced and rated A, A and A.

From March 2021, all new products brought to the market will now be rated using a simple A to G ranking system instead. All new products will show the relevant energy label on the website that will show what rating the product has been given. The label will also show a handy QR code that when scanned with a smartphone will give more additional product information (AKA product fiche). Product information sheets are also available on request, feel free to get in touch for more information.

Why do some products have two labels one for UK and one for EU?

This is simply because we (Studio or Ace) can sell this product in both the Mainland UK and Northern Ireland. For products that are not available for dispatch in Northern Ireland, they will only need to have the UK label shown.

The information on the labels is the same, the only difference being the flag logo in the top left-hand corner.

Why are some products still showing as A, A and A energy labels online?

There'll be some time where brands are still changing things over. Because of that, retailers can sell products that follow the old ratings until 1st December 2021.

Please note, some products that were manufactured before March 2021 are still in the transition period and energy labels and Product Information Sheets (Product Fiche) may not be available for these.

For further information or queries regarding Energy Labels or Product Information Sheets, please customer us.

What do the new labels mean?

QR Code When scanned with a smartphone camera, it will take you to a link that shows the Product Information Sheet. Rating scale from A-G with A being the most efficient. Rating for this product based on the new energy rating scale. Energy usage of the product Product specific information including capacities, noise levels etc relevant to the product.

How does it work?

Learn more about Your Studio Pay Credit Account in our Help Section.

As a responsible lender, there are a number of reasons why we might decline an application for a credit account.

To help make the right decision, we use:

• Information submitted in your application
• Information provided by Credit Reference Agencies
• And any internal information that we may have

These are all then assessed against their lending criteria.

Where can I find out why I was declined?

If your application for a credit account has been declined and you want to know why, you can get in touch with our Financial Services team using the links below.

Can I reapply?

  

We don't recommend applying again immediately as it's highly unlikely the decision will change and it may have a negative impact on your credit file.

However, if you want the decision to be reviewed, you can find our up-to-date contact details here - How Can I Contact Studio Pay.

You might find it helpful to review your credit report through an agency, such as Experian.

When you login to My Account, you will see your account number near the top of the screen.

You can also find your account number on the paperwork we send to you.

If you are still unable to locate your account number please contact us and we can arrange for your account number to be posted to your registered address.

Your current credit limit can be found on the site.

After logging in and clicking My Account you can find your credit limit information on the Account Summary page. This information is also displayed on your most recent statement.

What is Interest?

Interest is charged when you choose to spread the cost of your shopping. You will see the interest charge on your statement and we also show you what your interest charge is likely to be on your next statement.

We calculate your interest each day and add it to your balance when we prepare your monthly statement. By calculating the interest each day we make sure that whenever your balance changes we only charge you interest on what you owe on that day. For example when we receive a payment that reduces your balance the amount of interest charged will also reduce from that day onwards.

How does interest work with different plans?

We think it is important you understand how interest will be charged on your Studio Pay Credit Account along with any other credit options like Buy Now Pay Later and Interest Saver. This will make sure there are no unwanted surprises and you know what you are opting in to.

If you have opted for a Buy Now Pay Later or Interest Saver plan and do not pay it in full by the time it expires, we will back date the interest to when the order was added to your account, but will take into account any payments you have made to your plan.

If you want to read about this in more detail please see Your Studio Pay Credit Account in our Help Section.

What can I do to reduce interest?

Here are some easy ways to reduce how much interest you pay:

• Pay as much as you as you can reasonably afford each month.
• Pay your statement as quickly as you can after you receive it.
• If you have opted for a plan such as Buy Now Pay Later or Interest Saver - keep an eye on the expiry dates because interest will be charged if the plan expires before you have paid it off.

Alternatively, you can watch the video below:

For new credit customers the APR is representative 39.9% variable.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a Payment Freeze? 

A Payment Freeze means you do not have to make a payment to your Studio Pay account towards your current bill. You can call us before your current payment due date to request a Payment Freeze. Once the Payment Freeze is applied to your account, you will not have to make any payment towards the frozen bill.

When does the Payment Freeze end?

The Payment Freeze automatically ends on the next statement date following the date of the creation of the Payment Freeze. Studio will advise you as soon as the Payment Freeze is applied to your account to inform you of the start and end date.

What happens at the end of the Payment Freeze?

At the end of the Payment Freeze, the normal Terms and Conditions of your Studio Pay account resume, including the requirement to maintain regular and timely repayments to your account.

When will I receive the next statement?

You will continue to receive your statements on your regular statement dates. The statement following the end of the Payment Freeze will advise you of the end of the Payment Freeze and your new bill details.

How do I request a Studio Payment Freeze?

Availability of a Payment Freeze is subject to your eligibility. You can call us on 0371 376 5680 between 9am-6pm (Mon-Fri) or 9am-1pm (Sat) to request a Payment Freeze. Our helpful colleagues will check if you are eligible and process your request.

Can I place orders using my account during a Payment Freeze?

You will not be able to place any orders on your account during a Payment Freeze.

Will I be charged fees and interest whilst I am on a Payment Freeze?

The interest will continue to accrue and apply on your account as normal. We will not apply any late payment charges when you miss a payment allowed under the Payment Freeze.

Can I request a Payment Freeze if I have missed payments

No, you will not be able to use a Payment Freeze if you are already in arrears or using any other forbearance support option. However, we are here to help. Please see our Financial Difficulties section of our website for further help and other options available that may suit your situation.

Will my credit file be impacted by this Payment Freeze?

No, we do not report the Payment Freeze to the Credit Reference Agencies so this will not impact your credit file.

Can I request a Payment Freeze if I pay by direct debit?

Yes, if eligible you can request a Payment Freeze as long as it is requested before we attempt to collect your payment.

Can I cancel my Payment freeze?

Yes, if your situation changes and you feel that you do not need the Payment Freeze, please call us on 0371 376 5680 between 9am-6pm (Mon-Fri) or 9am-1pm (Sat) and we will remove the Payment Freeze from your account. Please make sure that you make a payment towards your unfrozen bill before the due date to avoid a fee and impact on your credit file.

If you pay by direct debit and ask us to remove the Payment Freeze after your direct debit is already requested, you will have to make a payment through other means as the direct debit will not be updated in time to collect your unfrozen payment.

What should I do if I want an extension on my Payment Freeze?

Studio will not be able to extend the Payment Freeze period. If you feel that your situation has changed and you will not be able to resume your regular payments after the end of Payment Freeze please contact us so we can assess the current situation and provide appropriate help.

Yes, you can manage how you receive your statements by signing in to My Account, selecting 'Go Paperless' and then choosing your preference.

If you'd prefer to stick with paper statements for now, that's fine. We just want to give you a heads up that as part of our commitment to the environment we aim to introduce paperless statements to all of our customers. Don't worry, we'll let you know by email if any changes are made to how we send statements to you. You'll also always have the option to change your preference in My Account if needed.

Your payment records can be seen when logging into My Account and selecting the Account Summary option.

If your payment is not showing yet, please ensure that you have allowed sufficient time for the payment to have been processed: -

• Card Payments- please allow 48 hours.
• Cheque- please allow 7 days.
• Postal Order or Cash sent directly to us- please allow 14 days.

If you chose to pay by debit or credit card when you placed your order, a long payment transaction reference would have been displayed or provided to you once your payment had been taken.

If we have your email address, we will also send you an email confirming that we have received your payment.

If, after allowing sufficient time, the payment is still not showing, please check with your bank/card issuer to identify if the payment has been taken before contacting us.

Internet/Telephone Banking- We are unable to process payments made by this method and as a result it can take up to 6 weeks for the payment to be located in our bank account and placed onto your account. If it has been more than six weeks since you made the payment please contact us with the full details.

Product not working?

It's never nice when something breaks down or isn't working as it should, particularly if the manufacturer's guarantee has run out too. There is time and hassle finding a local technician who can fix the fault, and then you have to pay for the emergency callout, plus what if your product can't be repaired?

Our Product Breakdown or Replacement Plan is designed to repair or replace your item if it is accidentally damaged or breaks down and fails to operate as intended by the manufacturer. Breakdown is covered outside of the manufacturers guarantee period.

What is a Product Breakdown or Replacement plan?

We offer this plan on some of the powered items (for example electrical appliances) you order from us. It works a little differently depending on the original price of your item.

• If you paid £200 or less for your item, the insurer will arrange an exact replacement or if it's not possible a product of the same kind and quality.
• If you paid more than £200 for your item the insurer will pay for the repair but don't worry it doesn't finish here; if it can't be repaired you will be given an exact replacement or if not possible a product of the same kind and quality.
• If no replacement can be found the insurer might decide to credit your account with the amount you paid for the item.
• The plans are individually priced and you can see plan price on the product details page, so whether you are ordering a washing machine or a tablet, we have a plan to cover you. To find out more details about the insurer, what your plan covers and how to make a claim, see- About Your Product Replacement or Breakdown Plan
• There are some circumstances where the product would not be covered, these include general wear and tear or theft/loss of item.

How can I get a plan?

If you are shopping online, we will tell you if cover is available on the product details page for the item you are ordering. Check you are happy with the price of the plan and the cover it offers before you select your preferred plan option. We will automatically add it to your account.

We will send you the cover details by email where possible or in the post. You should read these and keep them in a safe place. You can also read more about the plan in About Your Product Replacement or Breakdown Plan

How do I make a claim?

To make a claim, you need to call Castelan Limited on 0330 024 0367. Lines are open between 9am and 5:30pm Monday to Friday. Alternatively, you may send an email to productbreakdown@castelangroup.com or write to
Castelan, Customer Care, Alpha House, Sunnyside Road North, Weston-super-Mare, Somerset, BS23 3QY.

What else do I need to know?

If you have purchased this plan it will only cover the product that you bought it for and will only apply once the manufacturer's guarantee has expired. Your claim will be assessed by the insurer to check if it's covered within the plan you have bought.

About Your Product Replacement, Accidental Damage or Breakdown Plan

---

SECTION 1 - INTRODUCTION

Welcome to your Product Replacement, Accidental Damage or Breakdown Plan Policy Document.

This insurance is designed to repair or replace your product if it suffers:

1. Accidental Damage resulting in breakdown and/or fails to operate as intended by the manufacturer;
2. Breakdown resulting in the product failing to operate as intended by the manufacturer outside of the manufacturers guarantee period.

If your product has an original purchase price of £200.00 or less, we will (in the event of each valid claim):
- replace your product with an identical product, or if this is not possible, we will arrange for a credit to be applied to the account through which the original purchase was made

If your product has an original purchase price of more than £200.00, we may (in the event of each valid claim):
- choose to pay for the cost of repairing your product, or,
- replace your product with an identical product.
- arrange for a credit to be applied to the account through which the original purchase was made. However, we will only pay the purchase price of the product, or £1,500, whichever is lower in each individual claim.

The maximum we will pay under this policy in total for all repairs and replacements is an amount equal to twice the original purchase price of the product or £3,000, whichever is lower. If the product is replaced, or your account is credited, the plan will terminate. If required, you will need to buy a new plan for any new product

SECTION 7 - CANCELLATION OF THE POLICY

Your Cancellation Rights

You can cancel your policy within 30 days of the policy start date or, if later, 30 days of the date you receive this Policy Document. We will refund any premiums you have paid as long as you have not made a claim and do not intend to make a claim.

You can also cancel your policy at any other time by writing to:

Frasers Group Financial Services Limited, Express House, Clayton Business Park, Accrington, Lancashire, BB5 5JY or please call 0371 376 5680 or via the web: support.studio.co.uk/s/contact-us

You may be entitled to a pro-rata refund for each complete unexpired months cover, calculated at the date the cancellation request is received provided that you have not made a claim. This means that a refund will only be provided for every complete month of the plan remaining from the date you request the plan is cancelled.

Example 1: if you have a two year plan and request that your plan is cancelled anytime during the seventh month, you will be entitled to a refund for the remaining full 17 months. This will be calculated as 17/24th of the premium you have paid as follows: if the premium taken for a plan is £26.00, the refund would be £26.00/24 x 17 = £18.41.

Example 2: if you have a three year plan and request that your plan is cancelled anytime during the seventh month, you will be entitled to a refund for the remaining full 29 months. This will be calculated as 29/36th of the premium you have paid as follows: if the premium taken for a plan is £26.00, the refund would be £26.00/36 x 29 = £20.94

The Insurers’ Cancellation Rights

Useful definitions

Studio Pay Credit Account a type of personal credit account where you can order and receive goods and services from Studio and certain Frasers Group brands (and any other selected retailers we will tell you about from time to time) and pay for them later. Your Studio Pay Credit Account has a credit limit and you must pay a monthly minimum amount when you have an unpaid balance. We charge interest on the unpaid balance. From time to time, we may offer you a Credit Option. This is a different way of paying for purchases on your Studio Pay Credit Account.
Credit Option - a different way of paying for purchases on your Studio Pay Credit Account. The options we offer are:

• Interest Saver Option.
• Buy Now, Pay Later (BNPL) Option
• Fixed Payment Option

If one of these options is available, we'll tell you when you place your order. You can read more about Credit Options under Additional Terms below.

Plan - If you accept a Credit Option when you place an order, you'll start a Plan. We'll tell you how long the Plan will last.

Plan Balance - the amount you owe on a Plan. We'll remind you of this amount on your statement each month and you can view this online in My Account.

Plan Expiry Date - the date a Plan will end. We'll remind you of this date on your statement each month. In the statement we send before your Plan ends, we'll also tell you about any action you need to take to avoid paying interest.

What type of agreement is this?

This agreement is for a running credit account requiring regular payment. It is sometimes called revolving credit.

Studio Pay Credit Account

Interest rate

The interest rate is 34.1% per year (variable). We may vary it at any time by giving you notice. You can read more about this in the section Can the terms of this agreement ever change?. We calculate the rate as 2.84 pence in the 1 every calendar month.

Minimum payments

You must make at least the minimum payment each month. Please see What are my repayments and when are they due? below. If you only make the minimum payment each month, it will take you longer to pay what you owe. It will also cost you more as we charge interest on your outstanding balance. We recommend that you pay as much as you can reasonably afford.

Period of the agreement

This is an open-ended agreement. This means it doesn't have a fixed end date. It will continue until you or we end the agreement (see below for information regarding how and when this can be done).

What is the credit provided for?

The credit we provide under this agreement is for you to purchase goods and services from Studio and certain Frasers Group brands (and any other selected retailers we will tell you about from time to time) enabling you to spread the cost of those purchases.

What will my credit limit be and could this change?

We'll choose a suitable credit limit for you when we open your account. We'll tell your current credit limit on statements and you can also find it in the My Account section online. We base your initial credit limit on your personal circumstances and publicly available data from credit-reference agencies. (The data shows information about you including how you manage accounts run by other companies.) When you apply for an account, you can tell us if you'd like us to consider you for credit-limit increases in the future. We'll also explain how you can accept or reject increases.

We regularly review your credit limit to make sure it’s still right for you and your circumstances. We use internal data (which shows how you have been managing your account) and data from credit-reference agencies. If we think you are at risk of financial difficulties, we may not be able to offer you a credit-limit increase even if you have requested one.

Credit-limit increases: If you've opted in to credit-limit increase offers, we'll let you know if one is available to you. We'll normally give you at least 28 days notice of the proposed increase. You have the option of refusing the increase if you wish. If you request a credit-limit increase or agree to us applying a credit-limit increase earlier, we may apply it before the 28-day period ends. You can refuse any credit-limit increases or tell us not to offer them in the future. If you tell us you don't want a credit-limit increase, we won’t increase it. You can change your preference at any time. We'll only offer you a credit-limit increase if we think you can afford it. A higher credit limit may offer greater flexibility and convenience to meet your financial needs, but it may also increase the risk of borrowing too much, which could be expensive or take a long time to pay off. You should carefully consider whether you need a higher limit and if you can keep up your payments in the future.

 Credit-limit decreases: We may reduce your credit limit if our review indicates you may struggle to repay it or if your circumstances have changed. You can also ask us to increase or decrease your credit limit by completing a short form in My Account on our website To speak to us about your credit limit, please contact the Financial Services team as shown in the contact details section below. You can change your credit-limit preferences at any time online in My Account.

How and when will you provide credit to me?

Credit is subject to status. When you satisfactorily complete our identification, verification and credit checks, we'll give you a credit limit.

What have you assumed when calculating the annual percentage rate (APR)?

39.9% APR variable

• Example based on a credit limit of £1000: the total amount payable would be £1188.98 and our total charge for credit under this agreement would be £188.98. This example is based on the following assumptions: -You order £1000 of goods and services from us immediately at the start of the agreement.
• You repay the whole amount (including interest) in 12 equal monthly instalments.
• The interest rate stays the same.
• The agreement remains valid for the whole 12-month period.
• Both of us meet all our obligations under the agreement.

As we don't know when this agreement is made, we have assumed (as required by regulations) the APR and total amount payable allowing you to compare this agreement with those of other providers at the time you sign it. 

How do you calculate interest?

We calculate the interest daily using the account balance, once we have processed all transactions for that day. We then add the total of the daily interest charges to the account balance on your statement date. This means that the earlier you make your payment(s), less interest will be charged as the balance will have been lower for a longer period. Interest is compounded, which means we charge interest on interest. We don't compound interest on default charges.

When will you charge interest to my account?

If you pay off your full balance by the payment due date, we won’t charge interest on purchases made during your current statement period. But if you choose not to do so, we'll charge interest from the date we added the goods or services (or both) to your account until the date you pay off your balance.

What other charges can you apply to my account?

We may apply a default charge of £12 to your account: 

• if you don't make your minimum payment on time or if you don't pay enough to cover the minimum payment in full.

Can the terms of this agreement ever change?

We may change the terms of the agreement (including charges and the interest rate) when we believe we need to reflect:

• changes in relevant laws or regulations
• changes in our systems
• changes in market conditions affecting our business
• new developments in products, technology or other changes in lending practices
• additional, improved or revised product features
• new promotional offers
• changes in your personal circumstances and how you operate your account
• changes that in our view affect your credit status
• changes needed to operate our business in a profitable and prudent way
• if we are switching the type of account you have with us, for example because we stop offering the account you have

We'll only make changes for a valid reason and in a proportionate way. We won’t change or introduce any fees to cover the same cost twice. As this contract has no fixed end date, we may from time to time need to make changes for other valid reasons not set out here. If we do this, you can end this agreement without charge.

If the change is in your favour, we may introduce it without notice and inform you at the next available opportunity. If the change is not in your favour, we'll give you 30 days' notice of it. You'll have 60 days from the notification date to:

• do nothing and accept the new terms, or
• reject the new terms. If you reject them, your balance will stay on the prevailing terms but you won’t be able to place any more orders with your account. We'll give you a reasonable amount of time to pay off any balance.

We won’t increase your interest rate if we think you are at risk of financial difficulty for example you have currently missed two or more payments, we have agreed a repayment plan or you are in serious discussion with a debt-counselling organisation and they have told us about this.

We may also increase your minimum payment or change the interest rate if you are in persistent debt or at risk of being in persistent debt.

What are my repayments and when are they due?

Each month you must make at least the minimum payment. 

If you have a Fixed Payment Plan the minimum payment will be: Any Fixed Payment Plan instalments plus 6% of the non-Fixed Payment Plan balance, including any Interest Saver Plan Balances (less any BNPL Plans that have not reached their Plan Expiry Date).

•  6% of the total balance, including any Interest Saver Plan Balances (less any BNPL Plans that have not reached their Plan Expiry Date).
• £10.

If your balance is less than £10, the whole balance will be due.

Each month we'll  send you a statement showing purchases, charges, payments made and refunds. The statement will also show your minimum payment and a payment due date. If you pay off your balance in full and on time every month, we won’t charge any interest to your account. If there hasn't been any activity on your account during a month and you do not have a Plan, we won’t send you a monthly statement. 

We  recommend you pay off as much as you can reasonably afford. If you don't pay the minimum payment or you are late paying it, we may charge you a fee of 12 even if you've made a payment to a specific Plan. Refunds and returns do not count as payments. If you are waiting for a refund or have a dispute on your account, you should still pay at least the minimum payment.

How do you apply my repayments to my account?

We allocate your payments as follows:

1. Repaying any amounts in arrears as shown on your statement.

2. Then repaying the Fixed Payment Plan up to the instalment amount.
3. Then, 6% of the non-Plan balances on your Studio Pay Credit Account. We allocate this in the following order: first
to interest, then to purchases of goods or services, and then finally to charges and fees.
4. Then repaying 6% of any Interest Saver Plans you have.
5. Then repaying any BNPL Plans that will expire by the date of your next statement.
6. Then repaying any Interest Saver Plans that will expire by the date of your next statement.
7. Then repaying any balance on your Studio Pay Credit Account not on a Plan.

8. Then repaying any Fixed Payment Plan
9. Then repaying any other BNPL Plans or Interest Saver Plans.
10. Then, finally, repaying any amounts we have added to your account since the previous statement date in the following order: first to any Studio Pay Credit Account amounts not on a plan, then to any Fixed Payment Plans, then to any BNPL or Interest Saver plans in the date order they are due to expire (BNPL takes priority if the expiry dates are the same). Any remaining payment will put your Studio Pay Credit Account into credit. If you have two or more Plans in the same Credit Option, the Plans will be repaid in the order they are due to expire, starting with the Plan that is closest to expiry. If a particular Credit Option is repaid in a different order, we'll tell you before you make a purchase using the Credit Option. We'll allocate payments in a different way, for example against a specific Plan, if you tell us to do it. Do not pay more than you owe. If you pay more than you owe, your account will go into credit and you will need to contact us to arrange a refund. 

What happens if I can’t make a payment?

If you have a Plan, and do not make your minimum payment this may mean we withdraw it and any Credit Options that might have been available to you. Withdrawing the Plan means the Plan Balance is transferred to your Studio Pay credit account, we’ll add interest backdated to the date the goods were despatched and we will charge interest on the transferred balance moving forward.

We must also report your payment behaviour to the credit-reference agencies. It could lead to you having to pay extra costs and make it more difficult for you to get credit in the future. It will raise the total cost of repaying the debt as the ongoing interest we charge will increase the amount you owe. Also, we may pass your debt to a debt-collection agency to collect on our behalf. We may also sell your debt to a debt-purchasing company who may take legal action.

If you are in financial difficulty or can’t make a payment, it’s important that you contact us quickly. Please call us on the number shown at the end of this agreement.

We may from time to time (if you wish) suspend, defer or reduce the minimum payment that would otherwise be due for the period we specify. This revised amount, if any, will then be the amount due under your agreement. If we do this, we will provide you with written notice and we will also let you know whether interest will continue to be charged under this agreement.

What happens if I’m in persistent debt?

Persistent debt means that over the last 18 months, you’ve paid more in interest, fees and charges than in repaying what you borrowed. If  you meet this definition, we’ll contact you to explain how we can help.

If you remain in persistent debt for 36 months, we will contact you to set out the options available to you to increase payments and request that you respond within a reasonable period. If we don’t receive a response, we will suspend the use of your Studio Pay account.

The options available include Fixed Payment Plans, which will ensure paydown of the persistent debt balance within a reasonable timeframe. You will also be offered forbearance if you don’t consider the Fixed Payment Plans to be sustainable.

Can I repay my balance early?

You have a right to repay your balance (in full or in part) at any time. You can do this by using any of the payment methods shown in our catalogue, on our website, or on your statement, or by calling our Financial Services team. We encourage you to pay off any BNPL or Interest Saver Plans before their plan expiry date to avoid being charged interest.

How can I withdraw from this agreement?

You have the right to withdraw from this agreement without giving a reason. Your right to do this starts on the day after the agreement is made (or the date we confirm your credit limit, if later) and continues for 14 days (the ‘withdrawal period’).

You can do this by calling us on 0371 200 0379 or by posting notice of your withdrawal to: Customer Care Department, Frasers Group Financial Services Limited, Preston, PR0 2RP.

Useful definitions

Studio Pay Credit Account a type of personal credit account where you can order and receive goods and services from Studio and certain Frasers Group brands (and any other selected retailers we will tell you about from time to time) and pay for them later. Your Studio Pay Credit Account has a credit limit and you must pay a monthly minimum amount when you have an unpaid balance. We charge interest on the unpaid balance. From time to time, we may offer you a Credit Option. This is a different way of paying for purchases on your Studio Pay Credit Account.
Credit Option - a different way of paying for purchases on your Studio Pay Credit Account. The options we offer are:

• Interest Saver Option.
• Buy Now, Pay Later (BNPL) Option
• Fixed Payment Option

If one of these options is available, we'll tell you when you place your order. You can read more about Credit Options under Additional Terms below.

Plan - If you accept a Credit Option when you place an order, you'll start a Plan. We'll tell you how long the Plan will last.

Plan Balance - the amount you owe on a Plan. We'll remind you of this amount on your statement each month and you can view this online in My Account.

Plan Expiry Date - the date a Plan will end. We'll remind you of this date on your statement each month. In the statement we send before your Plan ends, we'll also tell you about any action you need to take to avoid paying interest.

What type of agreement is this?

This agreement is for a running credit account requiring regular payment. It is sometimes called revolving credit.

Studio Pay Credit Account

Interest rate

The interest rate is 34.1% per year (variable). We may vary it at any time by giving you notice. You can read more about this in the section Can the terms of this agreement ever change?. We calculate the rate as 2.84 pence in the 1 every calendar month.

Minimum payments

You must make at least the minimum payment each month. Please see What are my repayments and when are they due? below. If you only make the minimum payment each month, it will take you longer to pay what you owe. It will also cost you more as we charge interest on your outstanding balance. We recommend that you pay as much as you can reasonably afford.

Period of the agreement

This is an open-ended agreement. This means it doesn't have a fixed end date. It will continue until you or we end the agreement (see below for information regarding how and when this can be done).

What is the credit provided for?

The credit we provide under this agreement is for you to purchase goods and services from Studio and certain Frasers Group brands (and any other selected retailers we will tell you about from time to time) enabling you to spread the cost of those purchases.

What will my credit limit be and could this change?

We'll choose a suitable credit limit for you when we open your account. We'll tell your current credit limit on statements and you can also find it in the My Account section online. We base your initial credit limit on your personal circumstances and publicly available data from credit-reference agencies. (The data shows information about you including how you manage accounts run by other companies.) When you apply for an account, you can tell us if you'd like us to consider you for credit-limit increases in the future. We'll also explain how you can accept or reject increases.

We regularly review your credit limit to make sure it’s still right for you and your circumstances. We use internal data (which shows how you have been managing your account) and data from credit-reference agencies. If we think you are at risk of financial difficulties, we may not be able to offer you a credit-limit increase even if you have requested one.

Credit-limit increases: If you've opted in to credit-limit increase offers, we'll let you know if one is available to you. We'll normally give you at least 28 days notice of the proposed increase. You have the option of refusing the increase if you wish. If you request a credit-limit increase or agree to us applying a credit-limit increase earlier, we may apply it before the 28-day period ends. You can refuse any credit-limit increases or tell us not to offer them in the future. If you tell us you don't want a credit-limit increase, we won’t increase it. You can change your preference at any time. We'll only offer you a credit-limit increase if we think you can afford it. A higher credit limit may offer greater flexibility and convenience to meet your financial needs, but it may also increase the risk of borrowing too much, which could be expensive or take a long time to pay off. You should carefully consider whether you need a higher limit and if you can keep up your payments in the future.

 Credit-limit decreases: We may reduce your credit limit if our review indicates you may struggle to repay it or if your circumstances have changed. You can also ask us to increase or decrease your credit limit by completing a short form in My Account on our website To speak to us about your credit limit, please contact the Financial Services team as shown in the contact details section below. You can change your credit-limit preferences at any time online in My Account.

How and when will you provide credit to me?

Credit is subject to status. When you satisfactorily complete our identification, verification and credit checks, we'll give you a credit limit.

What have you assumed when calculating the annual percentage rate (APR)?

39.9% APR variable

• Example based on a credit limit of £1000: the total amount payable would be £1188.98 and our total charge for credit under this agreement would be £188.98. This example is based on the following assumptions: -You order £1000 of goods and services from us immediately at the start of the agreement.
• You repay the whole amount (including interest) in 12 equal monthly instalments.
• The interest rate stays the same.
• The agreement remains valid for the whole 12-month period.
• Both of us meet all our obligations under the agreement.

As we don't know when this agreement is made, we have assumed (as required by regulations) the APR and total amount payable allowing you to compare this agreement with those of other providers at the time you sign it. 

How do you calculate interest?

We calculate the interest daily using the account balance, once we have processed all transactions for that day. We then add the total of the daily interest charges to the account balance on your statement date. This means that the earlier you make your payment(s), less interest will be charged as the balance will have been lower for a longer period. Interest is compounded, which means we charge interest on interest. We don't compound interest on default charges.

When will you charge interest to my account?

If you pay off your full balance by the payment due date, we won’t charge interest on purchases made during your current statement period. But if you choose not to do so, we'll charge interest from the date we added the goods or services (or both) to your account until the date you pay off your balance.

What other charges can you apply to my account?

We may apply a default charge of £12 to your account: 

• if you don't make your minimum payment on time or if you don't pay enough to cover the minimum payment in full.

Can the terms of this agreement ever change?

We may change the terms of the agreement (including charges and the interest rate) when we believe we need to reflect:

• changes in relevant laws or regulations
• changes in our systems
• changes in market conditions affecting our business
• new developments in products, technology or other changes in lending practices
• additional, improved or revised product features
• new promotional offers
• changes in your personal circumstances and how you operate your account
• changes that in our view affect your credit status
• changes needed to operate our business in a profitable and prudent way
• if we are switching the type of account you have with us, for example because we stop offering the account you have

We'll only make changes for a valid reason and in a proportionate way. We won’t change or introduce any fees to cover the same cost twice. As this contract has no fixed end date, we may from time to time need to make changes for other valid reasons not set out here. If we do this, you can end this agreement without charge.

If the change is in your favour, we may introduce it without notice and inform you at the next available opportunity. If the change is not in your favour, we'll give you 30 days' notice of it. You'll have 60 days from the notification date to:

• do nothing and accept the new terms, or
• reject the new terms. If you reject them, your balance will stay on the prevailing terms but you won’t be able to place any more orders with your account. We'll give you a reasonable amount of time to pay off any balance.

We won’t increase your interest rate if we think you are at risk of financial difficulty for example you have currently missed two or more payments, we have agreed a repayment plan or you are in serious discussion with a debt-counselling organisation and they have told us about this.

We may also increase your minimum payment or change the interest rate if you are in persistent debt or at risk of being in persistent debt.

What are my repayments and when are they due?

Each month you must make at least the minimum payment. 

If you have a Fixed Payment Plan the minimum payment will be: Any Fixed Payment Plan instalments plus 6% of the non-Fixed Payment Plan balance, including any Interest Saver Plan Balances (less any BNPL Plans that have not reached their Plan Expiry Date).

•  6% of the total balance, including any Interest Saver Plan Balances (less any BNPL Plans that have not reached their Plan Expiry Date).
• £10.

If your balance is less than £10, the whole balance will be due.

Each month we'll  send you a statement showing purchases, charges, payments made and refunds. The statement will also show your minimum payment and a payment due date. If you pay off your balance in full and on time every month, we won’t charge any interest to your account. If there hasn't been any activity on your account during a month and you do not have a Plan, we won’t send you a monthly statement. 

We  recommend you pay off as much as you can reasonably afford. If you don't pay the minimum payment or you are late paying it, we may charge you a fee of 12 even if you've made a payment to a specific Plan. Refunds and returns do not count as payments. If you are waiting for a refund or have a dispute on your account, you should still pay at least the minimum payment.

How do you apply my repayments to my account?

We allocate your payments as follows:

1. Repaying any amounts in arrears as shown on your statement.

2. Then repaying the Fixed Payment Plan up to the instalment amount.
3. Then, 6% of the non-Plan balances on your Studio Pay Credit Account. We allocate this in the following order: first
to interest, then to purchases of goods or services, and then finally to charges and fees.
4. Then repaying 6% of any Interest Saver Plans you have.
5. Then repaying any BNPL Plans that will expire by the date of your next statement.
6. Then repaying any Interest Saver Plans that will expire by the date of your next statement.
7. Then repaying any balance on your Studio Pay Credit Account not on a Plan.

8. Then repaying any Fixed Payment Plan
9. Then repaying any other BNPL Plans or Interest Saver Plans.
10. Then, finally, repaying any amounts we have added to your account since the previous statement date in the following order: first to any Studio Pay Credit Account amounts not on a plan, then to any Fixed Payment Plans, then to any BNPL or Interest Saver
plans in the date order they are due to expire (BNPL takes priority if the expiry dates are the same). Any remaining payment will put your Studio Pay Credit Account into credit. If you have two or more Plans in the same Credit Option, the Plans will be repaid in the order they are due to expire, starting with the Plan that is closest to expiry. If a particular Credit Option is repaid in a different order, we'll tell you before you make a purchase using the Credit Option. We'll allocate payments in a different way, for example against a specific Plan, if you tell us to do it. Do not pay more than you owe. If you pay more than you owe, your account will go into credit and you will need to contact us to arrange a refund. 

What happens if I can’t make a payment?

If you have a Plan, and do not make your minimum payment this may mean we withdraw it and any Credit Options that might have been available to you. Withdrawing the Plan means the Plan Balance is transferred to your Studio Pay credit account, we’ll add interest backdated to the date the goods were despatched and we will charge interest on the transferred balance moving forward.

We must also report your payment behaviour to the credit-reference agencies. It could lead to you having to pay extra costs and make it more difficult for you to get credit in the future. It will raise the total cost of repaying the debt as the ongoing interest we charge will increase the amount you owe. Also, we may pass your debt to a debt-collection agency to collect on our behalf. We may also sell your debt to a debt-purchasing company who may take legal action.

If you are in financial difficulty or can’t make a payment, it’s important that you contact us quickly. Please call us on the number shown at the end of this agreement.

We may from time to time (if you wish) suspend, defer or reduce the minimum payment that would otherwise be due for the period we specify. This revised amount, if any, will then be the amount due under your agreement. If we do this, we will provide you with written notice and we will also let you know whether interest will continue to be charged under this agreement.

What happens if I’m in persistent debt?

Persistent debt means that over the last 18 months, you’ve paid more in interest, fees and charges than in repaying what you borrowed. If  you meet this definition, we’ll contact you to explain how we can help.

If you remain in persistent debt for 36 months, we will contact you to set out the options available to you to increase payments and request that you respond within a reasonable period. If we don’t receive a response, we will suspend the use of your Studio Pay account.

 

The options available include Fixed Payment Plans, which will ensure paydown of the persistent debt balance within a reasonable timeframe. You will also be offered forbearance if you don’t consider the Fixed Payment Plans to be sustainable.

Can I repay my balance early?

You have a right to repay your balance (in full or in part) at any time. You can do this by using any of the payment methods shown in our catalogue, on our website, or on your statement, or by calling our Financial Services team. We encourage you to pay off any BNPL or Interest Saver Plans before their plan expiry date to avoid being charged interest.

How can I withdraw from this agreement?

You have the right to withdraw from this agreement without giving a reason. Your right to do this starts on the day after the agreement is made (or the date we confirm your credit limit, if later) and continues for 14 days (the ‘withdrawal period’).

I received a letter/email asking me to confirm I am the personal representative before you will send a cheque to me why?

We can confirm this through the personal indemnity form supplied and a copy of the death certificate. You can send this to us via email or by post. Our contact details are at the bottom of this article.

I am struggling with some of the language in the letter - can you help?

For further clarity, we have added some additional explanations below for you, if you need any further help, please contact us using the details at the bottom of this FAQ.

How is my refund calculated?

Your refund is made up of interest and/or late payment fees that were charged in relation to the mistake that we made.

Where a refund of interest is due, we might need to also add any associated Compound Interest'.

Where a refund of any late payment fees is due, we have also added any interest charged on those fees.

What is Compound Interest?

Compound Interest is a phrase that is used regularly by banks, especially with regards to savings and debts. It means interest charged on top of interest.

Your usual monthly interest charges when shopping with us are calculated using your agreed interest rate as part of the compound interest calculation.

In the case of this refund, we have made sure to fairly recalculate your compound interest within the affected period and factored this into the amount of your refund where it was necessary.

Notional Credit Position

As part of the calculations for your refund, we made sure to identify if your account balance would have been in credit (Notional Credit Position), had this mistake not happened.

If your balance would have been in credit, we have made sure to add further compensatory interest onto the refund amount to compensate you for any lost interest.

Compensatory Interest

Compensatory Interest is the standard rate of interest that can be applied by businesses in the UK in relation to money being owed. This interest is applied at an annual rate of 8%.

Where any refunds of historic interest and fees would mean your balance would have been in credit at the time we applied the charges, we have also added compensatory interest on that credit balance (this is an additional 8% interest).

We are obliged to deduct 20% tax from any compensatory interest applied. If you pay tax at a different rate to the basic rate or if you are a non-UK taxpayer and wish to request a refund from HMRC, please contact us and we will provide you with the exact deducted value.

Please note, the tax deduction is not 20% of your total refund value, compensatory interest will only make up part of your full refund value.

You can view your order history, along with the contents of each order, when you login to the site.

After logging in, you'll be able to find your order details by going to your order history. 

We and our delivery partners will also send you emails as your order progresses, including the tracking details, so that you know where your order is and when to expect it.

Sometimes we offer special products to pre-order, which gives you the ability to order these items before their official launch or before stock becomes available for everyone.

The pre-order item, along with any other items you have selected for that order, will be processed for shipment once the stock becomes available. This means the whole order is only shipped once the pre-order item is available.

We show dates on the site for the expected available date for our pre-order items, but they can change and should be taken as a guide. We will keep you updated as soon as we send it out.

When you place an order with us and choose to pay by card, your bank will put an authorisation hold of the amount against the order. This will show as a pending amount on your statement. We will only charge you once the order has dispatched.

Please note - Some payment methods are restricted from ordering pre-order items. If you're experiencing an error during checkout, please check you are ordering using a credit or debit card.

You can search for items in a few different ways, to then add them to your shopping cart.

There's a search function at the top left of the website, look for the magnifying glass icon, but you can also look through our different categories for inspiration.

As you search your way through, you will see the different items found in that search or under that category for you to make your selection around colour, size and quantity before adding it to your basket.

When you're happy with your selection you can proceed to checkout where you will select your preferred delivery option, make your payment and look forward to receiving your items.

If you already have an account number with us, but have never used our website before you will not be able to create an online login at this time.

If you're wanting to place an order with Studio you will be able to checkout by making a card payment for your order. We will not be able to charge an order to your Studio Pay account.

Sorry to hear you're struggling to login.

If you have a Studio Pay account - please head here ( https://help.studio.co.uk/en/support/solutions/articles/80001078407 ) for help on how to get access to your Studio Pay credit account.

If you have a normal shopping account and are struggling to login with your details, we'd recommend you try resetting your password in the first instance. As long as we have your correct details on file, you'll get an email enabling you to reset your password.

If you cannot reset your password - this may mean that the details on our records are not accurate (eg. email address not spelled correctly). During these circumstances you would need to register as a new user as we are unable to make changes to your online profile, including changing your email address.

You'll need to sign in to your account if you want to place an order, or if you want to check your account and previous order details. If you're trying to sign in, but are being told your details are incorrect, please check the following advice-

Are you struggling on the login page?

You'll need your email address and password to login and the details that you enter will need to fully match our records to get you logged in.

• Please make sure you're using the same email address that you used to log in last time. If you're unsure, this will normally be the same email address where we send updates regarding your orders and account.
• Your password will need to be the same password that you used to login last time. If you use different devices and browsers to access the site, please keep in mind that some of them now offer to save your password for you. If your saved password isn't working, it's probably an old password that has since been changed.
• Please try not to make multiple login attempts. If you do, there's a chance your login will be disabled and you'll be promoted for additional security information. If you're unsure about your details we'd recommend you head straight to the 'forgotten your password page to reset your login. You can see some further guidance on resetting your password below.

Are you struggling on the 'forgot your password' page?

To successfully reset your account, we'll need you to let us know your email address, surname, date of birth and post code. All of these details must match our records to successfully reset your login.

• Please make sure you're using the same email address that you used to log in last time. If you're unsure, this will normally be the same email address where we send updates regarding your orders and account.
• Your surname needs to match your account details, this will be the same as what is usually on your paperwork. If you've changed your surname, please consider if you've let us know about the change of details. We may still have your previous surname on our records.
• Your date of birth needs to match your account details. We'd recommend you take care when selecting the date, month and year and double-check the information before moving on.
• Your post code needs to match your account details and will also be where we usually send your paperwork. If you've changed address since you last logged in, we may still have your old post code on our records. Try to avoid adding any extra spaces when providing your post code.
• Once your password is reset successfully, you'll be sent an email which includes a link to create a new password. This link will only work for a few minutes, so please activate it as soon as you can.

Are you currently registered on the website?

• If you've shopped with us before, but have never registered your account online, you won't yet have a log in. We do not currently have an ability to create an online login for existing Studio Pay customers. You will therefore only be able to place orders using a card payment during checkout.
• If you've registered online before, but have had your online account locked as a result of entering the wrong password information, you'll be prompted to provide additional detail to get your account back online.

If you've checked the above and are still struggling, please get in touch with the Studio Pay team for help with your login - How can I contact Studio Pay?
