Returns Policy

Return Requirements

Please return the items with their original/ suitable packaging. Ensure your items are securely wrapped within a box; otherwise, the return would not be eligible for a refund. Please ensure you attach a note or invoice with your name and order number inside the box.

We cannot accept an item returned as faulty if appropriate product care instructions have not been followed and the damage caused to the product is clearly due to wear and tear, misuse or items have not been secured with protective packaging.

We highly recommend using a Tracked or Signed for Delivery to ensure your parcel returns to us safely. If we do not receive a returned parcel, we are not liable. Please return within 14 days of delivery.

Returns need to be mailed within 14 days after we communicate about the issue.

A Change of mind

We classify a "Change of Mind Return" as a return of an item under the condition that the customer no longer wants the item and the item was unused in any way and is in the exact same condition as when we sent it to the customer.

Returns of this kind must be returned in their original packaging, with reinforcements to protect the item to ensure the safe return of items to us without any damage to the items.

Returned damaged items under this condition will be rejected and void.

We will decide case by case whether we will offer store credit or a refund depending on the price of the item and the case, this will be entirely up to us and our investigation.

We do not rent or hire out our Crystals under any circumstances.

If the items have passed the Quality checks once returned, then the Store Credit, exchange or refund will be processed.

On a rare occasion that an Ascension Crystal has been returned from our ceremonial range, we charge a handling fee of 20% unless the item arrived damaged or incorrectly. The reason why we have always charged the admission fee on sold-as-seen crystals is because of the amount of wrapping, time and wages it takes our staff to wrap these delicate crystals.

We also sell each product individually, which is our time for photos and uploading & considering our Ascension crystals are services within the ceremonial time we offer for the download of the crystal, crafting time and presentation wrapping also. Our free shipping charges and courier shipping are not covering any of these services we offer.

- You must contact us within 14 days of receiving the package to be eligible for a Change of Mind Return.

- If you contact us after 14 days, unfortunately, this is outside of our policy and becomes ineligible.

- Customers are responsible for the return shipping cost for Change of Mind Returns.

- Returns need to be mailed within 14 days after we communicate about the issue.

- All store credits or refunds for any returns will be issued after we receive the returned items at our returns address.

Refunds & Cancellations

If we have offered you a refund, it can take between 7-10 working days for your monies to reach your account. If you wish to cancel an order, you must contact us within 1 hour of your purchase as this may be within our working hours and our packers may be processing your order promptly.

Faulty Items

If any item is faulty or significantly different than described, please contact us immediately to arrange a return. If the item is deemed to have a manufacturing fault, first of all, we will offer you a replacement first. We will process a refund for you if we cannot replace the item. Return postage of items with faults will be reimbursed upon receipt. Please return within our 14-day return policy from the date of communication.

Broken or Damaged Items

If you have received your order broken or damaged, please send us photographic evidence with the packaging and we will refund your goods once the item has been returned to us. This will only apply to received goods after purchase as this will not apply to items that have been misused or damaged by the customer or attempt to return after the 14-day return policy.

We will be happy to offer you an exchange or, if you wish, a refund provided that the products are returned complete, in perfect condition, unused and with the original packaging. We cannot accept an item returned as faulty if the appropriate product care instructions have not been followed and the damage caused to the product is clearly due to wear and tear or misuse. Certain items are excluded from our returns policy for hygiene reasons. Return of an item is at your own cost unless the item is faulty.

Missing, Damaged or not as described items on receiving order package

Please check you have all of the items in your order and the condition of your items once you open your delivery box.

You must keep the delivery box, packaging material, and the printed paper invoice with you for when you notice you have any items missing or damaged as we will require a picture of the delivery box, the packaging material, and printed paper invoice for our investigation to help you with your claim.

We cannot process a claim for your order without the delivery box, the packaging material, and the printed paper invoice available for photos.

Before getting in touch with us, please make sure that you have emptied the packaging entirely before reaching out to us, to ensure any small items that may be amongst the packing have been located beforehand, this is required within 14 days of delivery.

Incorrect shipping address, unclaimed, not called for or failed delivery attempt
We take no responsibility for packages returned to us due to the delivery status of the package being placed as, or the reasoning for the return of the package being: "Not Called For", "Not Called For - Returned/ Returning to Sender", "Returned/ Returning to Sender", "Unclaimed", "Incorrect Shipping Address", "Failed Delivery Attempt", or any status or reason similar to this.

We are not liable for any of the reasons above, nor are we liable for any package being delivered to or being collected by the wrong person due to the shipping address being incorrect.

None of the reasons above are a valid reason for cancellation, nor a refund.

Customers are liable to check all tracking updates to ensure the following does not happen.

Reshipping fees

The Reshipping Fee is the cost of the Original Shipping Cost (As the Shipping Label has to be paid for again for it to be shipped) plus the Royal Mail "Return to Sender" Charge of which is equivalent to the cost of the Original Shipping Cost. So the Reshipping Fee is equal to around double the Original Shipping Cost.

Returns

Please do not return any products without contacting and having a conversation with the Customer Service Team. To return a product to us under valid reasoning (please see the returns policy link to see valid reasons for returning a product) and after we have instructed it to you, we will personally give you instructions on how to return a product to us.

Inspection & Rights to deny

We reserve the right to inspect the product, in cases deemed necessary, before issuing either credit or a refund.

Ascension Activation reserves the right to deny a return if it does not meet our returns policy or was not authorised and confirmed via email prior to receipt
