In order to safeguard against fraudulent applications, we regret that we're able only to deliver goods to the home address of the applicant.

Credit scoring is the process used by financial services companies to evaluate the credit risk of new applicants.  This technique will be applied to your application for online finance. Credit scoring works by awarding points for each answer given on the application form such as age, income and occupation, together with information obtained from credit reference agencies.  This information allows us to produce consistent decisions, ensuring all our applicants are treated fairly.

The credit scoring process does not discriminate on the grounds of sex, race, religion or disability.

In addition to credit scoring, we also take into account confirmation of your identity, validation of certain application details, existing commitments and information held at the credit reference agencies. Though we are unable to provide you with a main reason for decline of your application, it is usually based on one, or a combination of the following:

• Your credit score (please note that every finance company will score you differently)
• Adverse credit reference agency information
• You are considered to be overcommitted
• You are aged under 18
• Your existing account performance with other lenders

Yes. We acknowledge that your circumstances change and just because we have refused a previous application, it does not mean that we'll automatically turn down a further request. We do suggest however, that you leave at least 6 months between applications.

Some of the information is public information, for example electoral roll, County Court Judgements and bankruptcies. Other lenders may also file information about accounts you hold with them for instance this could include your payment history and outstanding balance on these accounts. Any requests for credit, where a credit reference search has been undertaken, will also be filed, although the result of the request is not recorded.

In many countries, import tax/duty do not apply when purchasing antiques aged over 100 years old. We declare these items as 'Personal adornment, over 100 years old', providing a signed and dated Antique Declaration form. Georgian and Victorian jewelry (around 40% of our inventory) falls into this category.

In many countries, import tax/duty/handling fees apply when purchasing items under 100 years. Jewelry from periods other than Georgian and Victorian (around 60% of our inventory) falls into this category.

Usually your country will have a website or customs office providing you with the relevant rates.

Further partial restrictions on importation of items such as ours exist in specific countries. Please contact us to make sure your country does not fit into this bracket.

We have no authority over a local country's customs department.
