1. Orders


Ordering: How do I place an order?

An order can be placed in two ways:
1. You can do it by using our Website
2. You can do it by sending an email to our customer service: sales@mytrendyphone.ie
You can read more about it under Placing an Order.

Can I place an order over the phone?

No, unfortunately not. We do not have the authority to take your Credit/Debit card information over the phone as it is very sensitive and can easily be misused. Read more about it in our Security Policy.

Is there a price limit when placing an order with MyTrendyPhone?

No, there is not. We might however reject a payment regardless of the amount if we get indications from the bank. Those cases are extremely rare but it can happen that the bank advises us to reject a payment for security reasons.



Advantages: What advantages does MyTrendyPhone offer to me as a customer?

The most striking advantages at MyTrendyPhone are as follows:

  • Original brands, straight from the warehouse
  • Best prices for all kinds of accessories
  • We have the fastest processing time when an order is placed
  • You can place an order 24 hours a day
  • Different ways to contact our customer service


How will I know that I have a valid order with MyTrendyPhone?

If this is the first time you are buying something from MyTrendyPhone and you are unsure of whether your order "went through" or not you should pay attention to the following:
› Did you receive a confirmation of your order by email within one hour? If not, your order probably didn't go through.
› Send an email to info@mytrendyphone.ie or call 020 70 990 759 and our support department will check it for you.
Off course, the safest way would be to check it with your bank first. If they confirm that there is no amount waiting to be charged from your card, than you can be certain that you do not have an order pending with MyTrendyPhone.




2. Shipping & Delivery


Shipping: How much does it cost?

You can read about shipping costs under Delivery Information for each product. Current delivery fee can be viewed at any time by clicking here. Delivery charge applies per order. In other words, you pay the same amount, regardless of how many products you have ordered. Please note that shipping costs depend on two criteria: order value and shipping method.

Shipping: How do you dispatch the products?

All orders are protected and wrapped with care before being sent. Depending of your choice, the products can be delivered either by Royal Mail or UPS.



How long does it take to deliver a product?

If the product in your order for is available for delivery at the time of placing the order and if you have placed the order until 17:30, your order will be shipped the same day.
Time of delivery is indicated next to each product. If you order products with different delivery times on the same order, individual items in will be sent separately as the products arrive in stock.
You will get an email for each dispatch, and it usually takes 2-3 days for the products to be delivered to you with exception of Scottish Highlands*.

* It's been our experience that the majority of late packages arrive just a day or two after this estimated delivery period. Please be aware however that although NOT the norm, delays on this service can result in orders taking up to 15 days to arrive.

How can I be sure my order will be delivered to me as promised?

MyTrendyPhone is a retailer accredited by IDIS.

Price match guarantee: What does this mean?

MyTrendyPhone has found a way to sell products at even lower prices than usual. We are analyzing our competition on daily bases, and have decided to reward those customers that help us keeping up with the trend of having best prices on the market. For that purpose MyTrendyPhone provides a 30-day price match guarantee. If you find the very same product (everything must be the same including the colour and packaging) in the same quantity but at a lower price, (the price means: total sum - including shipping costs), than that purchased at MyTrendyPhone, we will refund the difference in price. The shop where you found that product has to be a shop registered in the UK.
If you happen to encounter that kind of product, please send documentation to sales@mytrendyphone.ie. You are supposed to send your number, direct link leading to the cheaper product and information about your bank account, to which the difference will be transferred.
* The Price Match Guarantee does not apply to mobile phones, cordless phones, Internet tablets, iPads, music players, consoles, televisions or products from the Sound & Vision category.
You can not combine price match guarantee with other discounts.



Discount: How can I become a B2B customer?

If you are a customer that is ordering products in the name of a company, you have an opportunity to purchase products at privileged prices. How does that happen?
You should send an email to us at sales@mytrendyphone.ie. You will be asked to provide some relevant company information that will allow us to confirm your identity and information we need for processing your orders in the future. As soon as that is done, you will receive your username and password and you need to be logged before you try to place an order.
* A B2B cannot be a Club Trendy Customer at the same time. Discounts do not stack.



Discount: Can I get a quantity discount and how?

This is relevant only for companies; it does not apply for private customers. So, if you are a company representative and you are interested in buying a bigger amount of some product, send an email to sales@mytrendyphone.ie, state the product code you are interested in, the amount and your desired delivery address, and you will get a response with estimated delivery time for that amount and the price you can get those products for. It can be quite a bargain!

Yes, you can. You can become a member in our ClubTrendy and you will get 7% discount on all your future orders. Read more about ClubTrendy here.

In some cases, if the seal/packaging has been broken or damaged, the refund/replacement can be refused as well. This concerns especially the products software, some types of replacement batteries, memory cards, headsets or similar products. Different types of headsets are also excluded if the evidence of in-ear use has been detected and that is for hygiene reasons.

Internet shopping: Four good tips!

2) Is it clearly stated whether the shipping costs for your products are included in the price? Make sure you know all the information before you place an order.
3) Make sure you check whether the payment is transacted through a credible payment partner
4) Never state your card number and/or your card verification code when placing your order by telephone, fax or via email.

If you do that, know that you are giving sensitive information to a third party, information that is very easy to misuse.
