5.1 Brief Overview of the Services. We, with the assistance of registered pharmacists, provide thorough medical consultations via our online questionnaires completed by you. Through your completed questionnaire we are able to determine if you are suitable for the treatment you desire. It is at the discretion of our prescribers to accept or decline an order based on their medical assessment of your completed questionnaire. If it is determined by the prescriber that you are eligible for treatment, a confirmation notification will be sent informing you about the progress of your order. The pharmacy team will thereafter dispense and deliver the medicines directly to you
5.2 Completion of questionnaire. Once you have been successfully registered with Morrisons Clinic in terms of clause 4 above, you will be requested to complete a health-related questionnaire for the purposes of ordering the medicine category you wish to obtain. Please note that the information and advice provided by Morrisons Clinic when you use the Service is based on the information you supply to us. It is your responsibility to ensure this information is correct and complete, and you accept that failure to do so (whether intentionally or not) will affect the information and advice we give to you and the medicines we supply to you and, as such, may have consequences for which we are not responsible
5.3 Order Number. We will assign an order number to your order and tell you what it is when we accept your order. It will help us if you can tell us the order number whenever you contact us about your order.
5.4 Payment. Prior to submitting your questionnaire and order for your desired medicine or medicine category, you will be required to make payment for your order, as directed.
5.5 Assessment by prescribers and prescription of medicine. Upon receipt of your completed questionnaire and payment, our prescribers aim to respond within 24 hours on weekdays, and 48 hours on weekends. Please note that these timelines are only a guideline and, although we will endeavour to meet these timelines, we cannot guarantee such timelines. Our prescribers can only make a decision as to whether it is in the best interests of the patient to receive a medicine when he/she has all relevant information. On occasion, this may require the prescriber to ask you for additional information further to the information that was provided in response to an online questionnaire. If it is determined by our prescriber that it is not clinically appropriate to prescribe the requested medicine or category of medicine, a refund will be issued to you within seven working days and a notification will be sent out to you, through our patient portal, informing you of the reason why the treatment was declined.
5.6 Concluding a binding contract. When we receive your completed questionnaire, payment and order for the Services, we will confirm that we have received your order by sending a confirmation email to the contact email address that you supplied. Your order is an offer to purchase the Services and will not be binding on us until we prescribe your medicine. Professional codes of conduct and legal restrictions may limit the number and frequency of any item we are permitted to supply to you and, as such, we have no obligation to supply quantities exceeding the relevant permitted maximum and will charge only for those we do supply. We reserve the right to reject any order.
5.7 NO RIGHT TO CANCEL THE ORDER/AGREEMENT. Please note that when you take up a service that involves the prescribing of medicines (such as the Services), this will require us to perform an assessment of your clinical suitability for the medicines before the medicines can be prescribed or otherwise approved for supply – in other words, the supply of the Services (including the prescriber's assessment of your questionnaire and prescription of medicines) is personalised to you. You agree to us commencing this service and an assessment of your clinical suitability for medicines when you place the order and, as such, you will have no legal right to cancel your order under applicable consumer protection legislation, including to the extent applicable, The Consumer Protection (Distance Selling) Regulations 2000 and The Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013. Under certain limited circumstances, we may, using our sole discretion and considering the circumstances, consider a cancellation request from you if we receive such request prior to us confirming your order via e-mail.
5.8 Delivery. We may charge you for the delivery service and may increase or decrease the prices we charge for this from time to time. For general delivery terms, see clause 6 below.
5.9 Non-availability/substitutes. In the event that we are unable to fulfil a prescription, we will contact you to discuss your options.
5.10 Returns. Notwithstanding the limitation on your right to cancel your order, in terms of applicable regulations, we cannot accept any medicine returned to us (and resell it) from the moment such medicine leaves our premises. However, should you, at your own cost, wish to return unwanted medicine to us, we will facilitate the destruction thereof in accordance with applicable regulations. Please contact us should you intend to return any unwanted medicines.
5.11 Follow-up. The Morrisons Clinic team may contact you to check how you are doing after using the Services. We may also contact you for feedback about your experience, to help us improve and to ensure we meet your future needs. From time to time, we may use anonymised or pseudonymised information to carry out an evaluation of our service, to report on and improve the standards of clinical care and service we provide, and to help inform good clinical practice.
5.12 Your commitments when using the Services. As the patient, you agree that:
5.12.1 you will answer all questions truthfully and fully;
5.12.2 you will not register more than once;
5.12.3 you will not register or complete questionnaires on behalf of anyone other than yourself;
5.12.4 you will read carefully each message uploaded into your secure online patient record before taking any medicines that our clinicians have prescribed, and comply with any instructions given for each medicine. If you are uncertain as to how to take any medicine we have provided to you, you will contact us and not use the medicine until you have sufficient information from us and understand the correct instructions;
5.12.5 you will accept the prescriber's decision if he/she determines that it is not in your best interests to receive the requested medicine or medicine category without the benefit of a face to face consultation;
5.12.6 for certain matters including our weight loss service , it is mandatory that we notify your GP of your treatment with us. However, we will always offer to notify your GP of any medicines that we have prescribed, but if you decline to take up our offer to contact your GP, it is your responsibility to notify your GP. If you decide not to notify your GP, it is important that you keep a record of any medicines that we have prescribed. However, please note that in an emergency situation, we may need to contact a healthcare professional, social services or the emergency services without your consent, even where you have declined any of our offers to contact your GP; It is not possible to complete a weight loss consultation without consenting to us notifying your GP and this action is mandatory to be eligible for the service. Consent cannot be withdrawn retrospectively after we have approved your treatment.
5.12.7 you will ensure that no-one other than yourself has access to any medicines that we make available to you.
5.12.8 where applicable, you will ensure that any medicines prescribed in advance of need are not used beyond their expiry date; and
5.12.9 you will inform us via your online patient record if you experience any side-effects from any medicines we make available to you, or if you think that any medicine we made available to you has not been effective.
6.1 We are not responsible for delays outside our control. If our supply of the dispensed medicine is delayed by an event outside our control then we will contact you as soon as possible to let you know and we will take steps to minimise the effect of the delay. Provided we do this, we will not be liable for delays caused by the event.
6.2 If you are not at home when the dispensed medicine is delivered. If no one is available at your address to take delivery and the dispensed medicine cannot be posted through your letterbox, we, through the relevant third party service provider, will leave you a note informing you of how to rearrange delivery or collect the dispensed medicine from a local depot.
6.3 If you do not re-arrange delivery. If, after a failed delivery to you, you do not re-arrange delivery or collect the item(s) from a delivery depot, we may charge you for any storage costs and any further delivery costs; we may end the contract and clause 7.2 may apply.
6.4 When you become responsible for the dispensed medicine. The dispensed medicine will be your responsibility from the time we deliver it to the delivery address provided.
6.5 When you own the dispensed medicine. You own the medicine once we have received payment in full.
6.6 Notification of errors. You should check the contents of each delivery promptly upon receipt. If you believe any of the contents of the delivery is either missing, damaged or sent to you in error, you must let us know within 24 hours of delivery. In the event of any damage to the medication, you must send a picture that visibly shows any damage to the medication within 24 hours of delivery to our patient care team. In some instances, packages may be disfigured in transit due to the size and content of the box. In this case, the contents inside should be checked in the first instance as the medication may be fine to use. Our packaging is temperature controlled with Woolcool technology and designed to keep the medication safe. We would advise putting the package in the fridge immediately and contacting our team if you are unsure and require further information.
6.7 While we undertake to use reasonable endeavours to have the medicine delivered to you within the delivery date selected, time is not of the essence, and we shall not be in breach of the terms or have any liability whatsoever to you for failing to make the medicine available on the agreed delivery date.
6.8 You, or your nominated representative, are responsible for taking receipt of your medicines. Any signature or acceptance of the delivery by you or your nominated representative will be confirmation of the receipt of your order, and our obligations in relation to that delivery will be fulfilled.
7.1 We may end the contract if you break it. To the extent that a binding contract has already been entered into (see clause 5.6), we may end the contract for the Services at any time by writing to you if:
7.1.1 you do not make any payment to us when it is due and you still do not make payment within two days of us reminding you that payment is due;
7.1.2 you do not, within a reasonable time of us asking for it, provide us with information that is necessary for us to provide the Services, as required during the registration and questionnaire processes; or
7.1.3 you do not, within a reasonable time, allow us to deliver the dispensed medicine to you or collect the item(s) from us.
7.2 You may need to compensate us if you break the contract. If we end the contract in the situations set out in clause 7.1 we will refund any money you have paid in advance for the Services we have not provided, but we may deduct or charge you reasonable compensation for the net costs we will incur as a result of your breaking the contract depending on the date on which we end the contract.
8.1 Where to find the price for the Services. The price of the Services (which includes VAT) will be the price indicated on the order pages when you placed your order. We take all reasonable care to ensure that the price of the Services advised to you is correct. However, please see clause 8.3 for what happens if we discover an error in the price of the Services you order.
8.2 We will pass on changes in the rate of VAT. If the rate of VAT changes between your order date and the date we supply the Services, we will adjust the rate of VAT that you pay, unless you have already paid for the Services in full before the change in the rate of VAT takes effect.
8.3 What happens if we got the price wrong. It is always possible that, despite our best efforts, some of the Services (and medicines) we provide may be incorrectly priced. We will normally check prices before accepting your order so that, where the Services' correct price at your order date is less than our stated price at your order date, we will charge the lower amount. If the Services' correct price at your order date is higher than the price stated to you, we will contact you for your instructions before we accept your order.
8.4 When you must pay and how you must pay. You must pay prior to submitting your questionnaire and order for your desired medicine or medicine category.
8.6 In providing payment card details, you confirm that you are authorised to use the card and authorise us to take payment in full for applicable prescription and delivery charges and any other charges that become due to us under these Terms. Refunds, if applicable, will only be made to the card originally used for payment.

We are not responsible for any breach of, or failure to provide, the Services, which was caused by you, your GP, or any third party. In the event of any damage to the medication, you must send a picture that visibly shows any damage to the medication within 24 hours of delivery to our patient care team. In some instances, packages may be disfigured in transit due to the size and content of the box. In this case, the contents inside should be checked in the first instance as the medication may be fine to use. Our packaging is temperature controlled with Woolcool technology and designed to keep the medication safe. We would advise putting the package in the fridge immediately and contacting our team if you are unsure and require further information.

10.4 Even if we delay in enforcing this contract, we can still enforce it later. If we do not insist immediately that you do anything you are required to do under these terms, or if we delay in taking steps against you in respect of your breaking this contract, that will not mean that you do not have to do those things and it will not prevent us taking steps against you at a later date. For example, if you miss a payment and we do not chase you but we continue to provide the Services, we can still require you to make the payment at a later date.
10.5 Which laws apply to this contract and where you may bring legal proceedings. These terms are governed by English law and you can bring legal proceedings in respect of the Services in the English courts.
