Payments

Payment start date

Once you have placed your order, payments via Direct Debit and BPAY will start on the date you selected. Payments by Credit Card will be debited on the 15th of every month.

Payments on Public Holidays

Your Direct Debit payment will come out the next working day. Please note that Chrisco is located in Sydney, therefore we observe all NSW public holidays. If you wish to skip a payment on a public holiday, or on the day after, you will need to let us know before midday on the working day prior.

Missed payments

If you miss a payment we will automatically recalculate and slightly increase your future payments so that your order is fully paid by the Final Payment Date. If several payments are missed, we will reduce your order to make the remaining payments easier. We are not responsible for your bank charges if payments fail. We reserve the right to charge an administration fee of $3.50 if a payment fails.
If you are unable to keep paying, we will reduce your order to the amount you have already paid, and you will still receive products and/or vouchers for Christmas. We are happy to discuss your order at any time. Simply Contact Us.

Direct Debit Authority

If pay are paying by Direct Debit, you will need to complete a Direct Debit Authority to allow a payment to be automatically deducted from your bank account. By filling out the Direct Debit Request form, you are authorising Chrisco to debit your payments from your chosen account. At midnight on the day you have chosen (usually your pay day), our bank debits your account electronically. It’s easy. Just fill in the form and then... relax.

Stopping a Direct Debit payment

If you call us on 1800 247 472 by midday the working day before your payment is due we can stop a payment (i.e.: before Friday midday for a Monday payment).

HeadStart Plan

Your payments will continue until your order is fully paid for (no later than the Final Payment Date (See below). After the Final Payment Date, a HeadStart Plan will be created for you and Direct Debit payments will continue accordingly. A HeadStart Plan allows you to make payments towards next year’s order, while giving you time to decide exactly which products you want. We will write to you to confirm your HeadStart Plan payments prior to continuing your Direct Debits. Your HeadStart Plan is fully refundable should you wish to stop it.

Cancellation policy

If you are unable to keep up your payments for any reason, please contact our friendly Customer Service Representatives on 1800 247 472 as soon as possible to discuss the options that are available to you.
These options might include cancelling your order. If your order is cancelled, cancellation charges may apply, in which case, a fee will be deducted from your refund as follows:

Chrisco will allow you to cancel your order within 21 days of the date of your original order confirmation ("Cooling Off Period"). Within this Cooling Off Period, there will be no cancellation fee. Please note that once your order is fully paid for, you cannot cancel your order (even if the Cooling Off Period has not expired).
After the Cooling Off Period, the following cancellation fees will apply:
- Prior to 1st July: 20% of monies paid at the date of cancellation
- From 1st July to the Final Payment Due Date: 50% of monies paid at the date of cancellation
- All other days until your goods are fully paid for: 50% of monies paid at the date of cancellation
Your order cannot be cancelled once it is fully paid for.

Please note that Chrisco only orders your goods when you have ordered them from us. We do not maintain a retail store. This means that our costs if you cancel your order may be higher than other retailers. This contract is governed by the law of the state or territory in which the customer resides except for residents of the ACT whose contracts will be governed by the law of NSW.

Pricing & GST

All prices in this catalogue include GST. All weekly payments are rounded off to the nearest cent. All prices are inclusive of tax and/or duty where applicable, but should there be any alteration in rates of tax or duty, or any unforeseen product or fuel price increases, Chrisco reserves the right to substitute or adjust hamper contents or items accordingly.

Packing

All hampers are carefully packed into specially designed cartons and quality checked. Our frozen hampers are packed in insulated cartons.

Delivery

Delivery - General

All deliveries are made from November to mid December with the exception of the Back To School Hamper, which is delivered in late January. We’ll send you a delivery advice card closer to the time to advise on your delivery details. If you order multiple items, you may receive your items over multiple delivery dates. While every effort is made to deliver as advised, Chrisco cannot accept any liability for delay due to the customer’s failure to complete customer obligations or any other reason beyond the control of Chrisco (and/or its staff). Chrisco cannot accept any liability resulting from a contracted party’s failure to deliver as advised.

Delivery - Frozen goods

Due to the nature of frozen goods, customers must be home to accept delivery on the day advised, or make arrangements with friends or neighbours to accept it for you. We recommend you put frozen products into your freezer as soon as you receive them.
