I have a voucher code, why are you charging me £1?

Initially £1 will be taken from your account to authorise the payment details. This process is to validate that the card is correct and for us to process an order for you. The payment will refunded back to you within 3-5 working days.

This applies to all of our orders (even free boxes!) so that we can ensure we have current payment details in place for people who are starting an ongoing subscription.
