Order Delays, Cancellations & Refunds:
We do our best to deliver all orders within the expected delivery date. However, sometimes, it might take us longer than expected to deliver your product. In the event that your delivery date has passed and you still haven’t received your order, please email us at support@thesouqexpress.com or WhatsApp +971 50 987 0315 with your tracking number, so we can assist you with the same. Misspelt, incomplete or outdated address – when the courier driver fails to deliver the package to an address that is difficult to find, a new delivery attempt will not be made unless the customer provides all the necessary details.
The courier usually leaves a note for the client. Incorrectly completed order form – a postal code written in the street number field or vice-versa, the city name is written in the street name field, or a field left blank can also cause a delayed delivery.
Package redirection – if you decide to change the delivery address after the delivery service has been confirmed and the information has been entered into the system, a redirection may lead to delayed delivery. Even if the new address is very close to the initial one, the information still has to be reprocessed by the courier company’s system;
Difficult access to the property – sometimes, the courier needs an access code to enter the building. Make sure you provide this information when placing the order, otherwise, the courier will leave and a new delivery attempt will be scheduled for another date; Weather conditions
– sometimes, unforeseen situations that are beyond the carrier’s control can affect the delivery time. Bad weather can block the roads or slow down the transit and cause a delayed delivery;
Temporary technical issues – under such circumstances, customers are notified of the problem and are given a new delivery time estimate;
– the time when your package gets delivered depends on whether your address is at the beginning or at the end of his route. Most courier drivers usually work from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. You should always bear in mind that delayed delivery often occurs during peak seasons, such as winter or summer holidays. Given a great number of packages, the driver might arrive after 6 p.m.
In case we are not able to dispatch your order due to being out of stock or product not meeting our quality parameters, we shall initiate a transfer back to the source in case of prepaid transaction and to your account in case of a Pay on the Delivery transaction. While the brand will be accepting requests for returns, please expect a delay in return pick up and subsequent refund. Also, owing to ongoing govt. restrictions in certain pin codes, there are select pin codes where reverse pick up is still not serviceable.
