I'VE RECEIVED AN EMAIL FROM A SUSPICIOUS SOURCE. WHAT SHOULD I DO?

If you have received an order confirmation email with details you do not recognise, this is very likely to be a phishing scam attempt to steal your details. We would never ask you visit an external source such as PayPal or your Bank in our emails to you, so please check the origin of all links carefully.

If you are in any doubt, please contact us immediately.

CAN I PLACE AN ORDER OVER THE TELEPHONE?

Unfortunately, we are unable to take orders over the telephone. All orders must be placed on the website.

CAN I CHANGE THE SHIPPING ADDRESS ON MY ORDER?

Your shipping address is part of our security checks to see how safe the order is to process. For this reason, under normal circumstances, we will not be able to change your shipping address to an alternative street address. The order would need to be cancelled prior to dispatch and placed again with the correct address.

If you have made an error when submitting your shipping address (e.g. missing house number, incorrect postcode etc) and your order has not yet been dispatched, please contact us immediately and we'll do our best to stop it from leaving with our next order collection. If the order has already been dispatched then we will have to wait for it to be returned from the incorrect address before we can issue a replacement or a refund.

HOW CAN I CANCEL MY ORDER?

Please contact us immediately and we'll do our best to cancel your order.
If the order has already been dispatched, the cancellation will no longer be possible.

WHEN WILL PAYMENT BE TAKEN FOR MY PRE-ORDER?

We understand that not paying for your pre-order too far in advance is important. For this reason, we strongly recommend that you save your payment details at the time of checkout when placing a pre-order. We will attempt to take payment for pre-orders approximately 1-3 days before the official release date once we have the items in stock and ready to ship, so you're not paying anything earlier than necessary.

However, if you choose not to save your payment details at the time of checkout, we will have to take payment in full at the time the order is placed.

CAN I CHANGE THE PAYMENT METHOD ON AN EXISTING ORDER?

Unfortunately, we have no way of changing a payment method on an existing order. The order would need to be cancelled and a new order placed with the change of payment method.

HOW DO I EARN REWARD POINTS?

After you have created an account on our website, each time you shop on our website, you will earn Reward Points on your purchases. You will earn 10 Reward Points for every full £1 spent, on a per-product basis. Please note: guests will not earn ANY Reward Points so remember to login or create an account before you place your order.

THERE APPEARS TO BE A FAULT WITH MY GAME. WHAT SHOULD I DO?

We wish everything was perfect but sometimes a game can have minor issues that are fixed by developers in the form of patches that are made available to download. Please ensure that your PC/Console is connected to the Internet and that all patches have been installed for your specific game. Developer's websites may also be a good source of known issues and how to work around them or information regarding new patches and when they will be made available.

If you're still having issues then please contact us and one of our team will look into it further for you. We want you to enjoy your game without pesky bugs!
