Delivery and Returns  

Miele major domestic appliances (excluding Vacuum Cleaners)  

We aim to make the purchase of your new appliance from Miele as easy as we can so that you can enjoy your new machine with as little hassle as possible. We will even take away all unwanted packaging that comes with your new appliance, saving you the trouble of disposing of it yourself.

Please note that this service applies to mainland UK addresses only, offshore deliveries include Isle of Man, Scilly, Isle of White, Channel Islands and Scottish islands. For services in Northern Ireland please contact Miele Ireland by clicking here.

Once you have placed your order we will contact you by telephone usually by the following working day to arrange delivery to your chosen address and to confirm if you have an old machine for disposal. We can usually deliver your appliance within 2 working days after placing your order although this is subject to your postcode, stock availability and to us agreeing with you a time that is convenient.

For freestanding appliances we will disconnect your old appliance and take it away for recycling. We will put your new appliance in place including plugging it in and for freestanding washing machines and dishwashers we will connect to water supply and waste. In some circumstances, where we find mains services to be unsuitable for safe disconnection and connection or where some level of remedial works are required, we reserve the right to not carry out these services. We are unable to disconnect or connect hard wired appliances, to rewire plugs, to ‘customise’ fittings and fixtures or to dismantle or change any furniture.

We regret that we are unable to un-install or install integrated or semi integrated appliances, this includes appliances that have an integrated door front matching your kitchen cabinets. We can take away your old integrated appliance for disposal providing that it is disconnected from all mains supplies and that it is removed from its niche and has no fixings or furniture attached to it.

Where you have bought a tumble dryer and stacking kit which is compatible with your washing machine we can stack your tumble dryer on top of your washing machine.

We will remove all packaging and if required dispose of your old appliance all free of charge leaving you with only your new Miele to enjoy.

We always aim to consolidate orders although if you have also ordered Accessories, a Vacuum Cleaner or more than one product then these may arrive separately on a different delivery.

Cookies are harmless text files designed to make your online life easier, usually by remembering details such as whether you've visited a site before, what content you may have viewed and what you've placed in your online shopping basket. This data is completely anonymous, containing simply a website name and unique user ID.

Cookies are also used to collect anonymous data about how visitors use a website, such as how long is spent on each page. This allows companies to work out which parts of their websites are most popular, and which sections might need improving to give visitors a better experience of using the site.

None of the cookies we use collect personal information about you; they are simply used to give us anonymous data that allows our website to work properly and help us see where we can improve.

The Miele website uses anonymised cookies to serve the following functions:

Adding products to your shopping basket – this allows you to move from one page to another without losing anything that you've put in your online shopping basket.

Count visitor numbers – several 1st party cookies are used to count visitor numbers, pages viewed and other anonymous data on site usage.

Tailoring adverts and content – this allows us to see anonymous data about what information you've seen before and how you've interacted with our site – for instance, what products you've bought from us – so that we can show you content such as related products that you're more likely to be interested in.

Google Analytics tracking – this gives us aggregated data on how visitors use our website, allowing us to see information such as which are our most popular pages, and how long visitors spend on different parts of our site. We use this anonymous data (which is linked only to your IP address, not to any personally identifying information) to identify parts of the site that may need redesigning or rewriting to make them easier to use.

Other third party analytics tracking – from time to time, we may also make use of other third party analytics tracking, which again is linked only to your IP address and not to any personal information.

If you'd rather not have cookies on your computer, you can disable them quickly and easily in your browser settings. Instructions for doing this will vary from browser to browser, but will usually be in the ‘privacy' section of your browser settings or preferences. You'll also be able to delete any cookies already on your computer, as well as blocking cookies from other sites.

Disabling cookies in your browser may result in some aspects of the Miele website not functioning correctly. For example, the products you put in your shopping basket may disappear if you move to another page. We therefore recommend keeping cookies enabled to ensure you get the most from our site.

4.4.1 If we do not have all necessary parts to complete the repair, we may need to arrange a return visit. In such cases we will not charge you a call‐out charge for the first visit although engineer time during that first visit will be counted towards the first hour of time for the
second visit.
4.4.2 If in our opinion your appliance is beyond economic repair, we will discuss this with you before carrying out the services. Where you decide not to have work carried out for this reason, please note that a call‐out charge will still apply (see section 9.1.3 below).
4.5 If you do not allow us access to your property to provide the service visit as arranged (and you do not have good reason for this) we may charge you additional costs incurred by us as a result (see the charges for failed calls on our website). If, despite our reasonable efforts, we are then unable to contact you or re‐arrange the service visit, we may end the contract.

5 Vacuum Cleaners and Countertop Coffee Machines
Repairs for vacuum cleaners and countertop coffee machines are not carried out by service visit – for these appliances, please order the repair by phone on 0330 160 6600 to enable us to arrange collection of your appliance for repair or servicing. Our repair service and charges for these appliances are set out at https://www.miele.co.uk/c/repair-26.htm and are inclusive of parts and labour. This service covers servicing and minor repairs, and we are not able to provide this service for appliances requiring major repairs: where we consider that your vacuum cleaner or countertop coffee machine cannot reasonably be repaired, we will return the appliance to you and refund the cost of the service.

6 Service Guarantee
6.1 Miele guarantees all repairs carried out on a specific fault for 12 months, covering both labour and replaced parts. Please note that this service guarantee only covers the specific parts and services supplied under the service visit or during the repair: it does not cover any other faults that your appliance may have. The service guarantee does not apply where the failure of a repair or a replaced component is due to any of the following:
6.1.1 Non‐compliance with safety regulations and warnings given in the operating instructions;
6.1.2 Faults caused by operating errors or lack of care;
6.1.3 Inappropriate and/or commercial use;
6.1.4 Intentional or accidental damage, or external influences;
6.1.5 Incorrect installation or faulty repairs by non‐authorised repairers; or
6.1.6 Use of non‐approved spare parts or accessories.
6.2 The service guarantee is offered as an extra benefit and does not affect your key rights, which are summarized at the top of these terms.

7 Your right to cancel this contract
7.1 You have the right to cancel this contract within 14 days without giving any reason. The cancellation period lasts for 14 days, starting the day after the day on which the contract was made. Where you have requested us to supply services before the end of this cancellation period:
7.1.1 If you cancel during the cancellation period but after we have started the services (but before they are completed), you must pay us for the services provided up until the time you tell us that you have changed your mind.
7.1.2 You do not have the right to cancel in respect of services that have been completed, even if the cancellation period is still running.
7.2 To exercise the right to cancel, you must inform us of your decision to cancel this contract by a clear statement (e.g. a letter sent by post or by email). You can use the model cancellation form set out in the box below, but it is not obligatory.

Cancellation form

To Miele Company Limited, Fairacres, Marcham Road, Abingdon, Oxfordshire OX14 1TW (e‐mail: info@miele.co.uk)

I/We [*] hereby give notice that I/We [*] cancel my/our [*] contract for the supply of the following
service [*],

Ordered on [*]/received on [*],

Name of consumer(s):

Address of consumer(s):

Signature of consumer(s) (only if this form is notified on paper):

Date:

[*] Delete as appropriate

 

7.3 You can also electronically fill in and submit the model cancellation form, or any other clear statement, on our website https://www.miele.co.uk/f/uk/contact-next-gb.aspx. If you use this option, we will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of that cancellation in a durable medium (e.g. by e‐mail) without delay.
7.4 To meet the cancellation deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right to cancel before the cancellation period has expired.

8 Effects of cancellation during the cancellation period
8.1 If you cancel this contract, we will reimburse any advance payments received from you. If you cancel after we have started the services, we will charge you (or, where you have made advance payment, deduct from any refund) an amount for the supply of services in proportion to the services provided before you communicated your cancellation of the contract.
8.2 We will make any reimbursement that is due without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to cancel this contract. We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of the reimbursement.

9 Price and Payment
9.1 Our service visit charges are set out on our website in pounds sterling (GBP) and include VAT at the applicable rate. The price for your service visit (and the basis of any charges we cannot calculate in advance) will be indicated on the order pages when you place your order or will be confirmed during your phone booking:
9.1.1 call‐out charges include the first hour of labour; additional time after that first hour is based on an hourly rate but is charged in 6‐minute increments;
9.1.2 replacement spare parts are charged as extra – your service engineer will advise you of the cost of spares;
9.1.3 where our engineer advises that your appliance is beyond economic repair (BER), our BER call‐out charge will apply. We take all reasonable care to ensure that the prices advised to you are correct. If, in the course of a service visit, it becomes apparent that further work is needed on your appliance beyond that covered in your order, the service engineer will agree the costs of that additional work with you.
9.2 In some cases, and where stated during the order process, we require advance payment before we start the services. Where you have made advance payment (unless you have pre‐paid in full) we will invoice you for the balance of the price of the services when we have completed them. In all other cases, you will need to make payment on completion of the services.
9.3 Unless services have been fully pre‐paid, you must pay each invoice within 30 calendar days after the date of the invoice. We accept payment by all major credit and debit cards or by cheque, but we are unable to accept cash payment. If you do not make any payment to us by the due date we may charge interest to you on the overdue amount at the rate of 3% a year above the base lending rate of Barclays Bank from time to time. This interest will accrue on a daily basis from the due date until the date of actual payment of the overdue amount, whether before or after judgment. You must pay us interest together with any overdue amount.
9.4 Nothing in this clause affects your legal rights to cancel the contract during the cancellation period under sections 7 and 8.

10 Ending the contract
10.1 Your rights to cancel the contract during the cancellation period under the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013 are described at sections 7 and 8. Where you wish to end the contract in other circumstances or outside the cancellation period:
10.1.1 if you wish to end the contract but we have not completed the services, you must pay us for services provided up until the point that you end the contract (and, if any advance payments exceed the amount due, we will refund the difference to you);
10.1.2 if you wish to end the contract because:
(a) we have told you about a change to the services, and error in the price or description of the services, or a change to these terms to which you do not agree, or because there is a risk that the services will be significantly delayed because of events outside our control; or
(b) because you have a legal right to end the contract because our services were not in conformity with the contract or were defective, you will not be liable to pay for any services that have not been provided and if we are at fault you may also be entitled to compensation.
10.2 We may end the contract if:
10.2.1 you do not make any payment to us when it is due and you still do not make payment within 14 days of us reminding you that payment is due;
10.2.2 you do not, within a reasonable time, allow us access to provide the services.
10.3 If this contract is ended it will not affect our right to receive any money which you owe us under this contract.

11 Limit on our responsibility to you

11.1.1 losses that:
