Will a credit check be performed?
Yes. A credit check is performed to assess your eligibility during your application.
DivideBuy also has a quick check service which is available on this website so you can assess your eligibility for DivideBuy credit that will not affect your credit file.
How do I make my monthly payments?
Payment is collected via a Continuous Payment Authority (CPA). This method uses your long card number, expiry date and three-digit CV2. Payments will be collected automatically on the date your instalment is due.
Can I request delivery to an address other than my home address?
To guard against fraudulent applications, we are only able to deliver goods to your home address.
What if I would like to cancel/ return my order?
The first step is to contact the retailer directly to cancel your order. If you have already received your order, you'll need to arrange for it to be returned using the retailer's returns process. The retailer will then contact us to confirm your order has been returned, so we can issue a refund and cancel your credit agreement.
My application was declined. Now what?

You can request an appeal by contacting us at: mailto:customerservice@dividebuy.co.uk. We may ask you to provide additional information to support your appeal.

Are there any fees or charges?
There are no hidden charges.
Where an interest bearing credit product is selected, we will charge a fixed interest rate as part of the repayment instalments. This is explained by the following representative example:
Representative Example: A loan of £950.00 over 24 months will cost you £45.34 per month at a representative 14.9% APR. The total cost after 24 months is £1,082.57, which includes £132.57 interest at 14.9% fixed and a £0 fee. The total amount of credit is £1,042.91.
This is all explained in the documentation provided before you electronically sign at the checkout process.

What if I need to change my delivery address from my billing address?
DivideBuy will need to approve any deliveries to addresses other than the application/billing address. Without their approval, we will not be able to ship to a different address as fraud prevention measures apply. To have goods delivered to another address, once you have placed your order and paid a first instalment, you need to contact DivideBuy directly who will then notify us of the changes.
