    H&M Parcel Not Delivered or Refund Refused? UK Guide

    H&M uses several UK couriers. CRA 2015 places liability on H&M, not the courier.

    Retailer policies and courier partnerships change. Always verify the current returns window and contact route on H&M's own website. This is general information, not legal advice.

    Who delivers your H&M order?

    H&M typically uses: Evri, Royal Mail, DPD. The exact courier varies by region, order size, and delivery option.

    Whichever courier handled your parcel, your contract is with H&M, not the courier. Section 29 of the Consumer Rights Act 2015 puts the obligation on H&M to deliver into your physical possession.

    H&M delivery FAQs

    Is H&M legally responsible for a missing parcel?

    Yes. Under Section 29 of the Consumer Rights Act 2015, the retailer (H&M) is responsible for the goods until you take physical possession. H&M cannot redirect you to the courier because your contract is with H&M, not the courier.

    How long does H&M have to refund me?

    Under Consumer Contracts Regulations, refunds are due within 14 days of cancellation. For damaged goods, a short-term right to reject and full refund applies within 30 days under the Consumer Rights Act 2015.

    H&M says my parcel is 'with the courier' for over a week — what now?

    After 5–7 working days past expected delivery, treat as lost. Quote Section 29 CRA 2015 and request a refund.

    Can I claim from H&M for a damaged garment received by post?

    Yes. Section 9 and Section 20 CRA 2015 give you 30 days to reject damaged goods for a full refund.

    Does H&M Membership change my refund rights?

    No. Membership is a loyalty programme; statutory rights are unaffected.
