Returns, Refunds & Cancellations

What happens if you change your mind, need to cancel or something is wrong with your food.

Last reviewed 1 October 2026

The short version

Contact us immediately if you want to stop an order before fulfilment.

Fresh and other rapidly perishable food does not have the normal distance-selling change-of-mind cancellation right.

Faulty, unsafe, damaged or misdescribed goods are different: your statutory rights still apply.

Cancelling before fulfilment

If you need to cancel, contact support as soon as possible. If the order can still be stopped, we will cancel the affected items and arrange the appropriate refund. Once preparation or dispatch has progressed, cancellation may no longer be possible for perishable or made-to-request food.

Change of mind after delivery

The normal 14-day distance-selling cancellation right does not apply to goods that are liable to deteriorate or expire rapidly. This is why fresh meat and other perishable foods normally cannot be returned simply because you changed your mind. Hygiene protections can also limit returns of sealed goods after opening where the legal conditions apply.

If Uncle Jee later sells a non-perishable item that is not covered by an exception, the normal consumer cancellation rules will apply to that item.

If something is wrong

Contact us promptly if an item is missing, incorrect, damaged, unsafe, misdescribed or not of satisfactory quality. Depending on the circumstances and your legal rights, the remedy may include replacement, redelivery, a price reduction or refund.

Do not consume food you reasonably believe is unsafe. A photograph can help us investigate packing or delivery issues, but we will not make a statutory remedy conditional on a photograph where one is not reasonably available.

Refunds

Approved card or wallet refunds are normally sent back through Stripe to the original payment route. Your bank or wallet provider can take additional time to show the credit after Stripe has accepted the refund.
