Payment Methods

Why am I being asked to validate my card details when I check out?

In response to a change in the law, a new system has been introduced called Strong Customer Authentication (SCA). This is being applied by all retailers and is designed to make purchasing safer and more secure.

Shopping online or in store

When shopping online, you may receive randomly generated requests for you to authenticate your purchase by entering a unique one-use passcode, which your card issuer will send to your phone. If you plan to use contactless in one of our stores, you may be asked to insert your card and key your PIN.

What do I need to do?

Make sure your card issuer has your current mobile phone number, so they can send the passcode to you. Have your mobile phone to hand when you place an order. If you don’t have access to a mobile phone, please contact your bank or card issuer.

Can you send me a secure code?

Only your bank or card issuer can send you a secure code.

I can’t access my secure code but I want to place an order – how can I check out?

If you are having trouble completing your order online, please call our Customer Services Team on 03330 148 208.

You can update your payment details online by visiting Your Account or by calling us on 03330 148 208.
