Martin Lewis Issues Advice for Online Shoppers Returning Items to 30 Stores

UNITED KINGDOM, JUL 6 – New Look will shut 38 stores in the UK and Ireland this year due to high street decline, with 12 closures in the UK and 26 in Ireland, industry sources confirmed.

  • Martin Lewis, a finance expert, warned consumers on Good Morning Britain about misleading online return policies by 30 major UK retailers, including New Look and The Range.
  • He explained that the issue arises because some retailers publish incorrect information that shortens the legally mandated 14-day notification and 14-day return periods under the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013.
  • Martin clarified that customers have 14 days after delivery to notify the retailer about returns and a further 14 days to send items back, making a maximum of 28 days for the entire return process.
  • He mentioned that their evidence is being submitted to Trading Standards and that they are reaching out to each retailer to ensure they acknowledge their violations and outline their plans to address them, noting that some shops mistakenly treat in-store purchase rights as equivalent to online return rights.
  • This alert underscores the importance for shoppers to know their correct online return rights and may prompt regulatory action to improve retailer compliance and consumer clarity.
