Customer Service

Please read these conditions carefully before using the Coco Chocolate website. By using this website, you signify your agreement to be bound by these conditions.

DELIVERIES AT CHRISTMAS, VALENTINES DAY & EASTER

Please note we take every care for your packages to arrive safely and on time. We use Australia Post Express which is usually next day delivery but this cannot be guaranteed. On very hot days delivery is delayed. Cool packs are used in warmer months but sent at your own risk. We advise sending Christmas gifts 7 days before Christmas Day to ensure delivery due to volume delays by Australia Post at this busy time. This year the last day for online orders is the 16th December. Orders received after this date will be sent but delivery by Christmas Day is not guaranteed. If you would like to send your own courier to pick up for you at our Kirribilli store, please advise us your order to ready for pick up on 99224998. Thank you.

PICK UP AT MOSMAN – MIDDLE HEAD STUDIO

We are happy to offer a free courier service form our Kirribilli store to the Coco Chocolate studio at Middle Head if this is a more convenient pick up spot and you do not wish for online delivery. Please call Kirribilli to order your selection and preferred time for pickup (by appointment only)

CREDIT CARD Security

If you pay by credit card, your details are handled securely by Coco using Stripe on a secure server using encryption, at no time do we store or have access to your unencrypted card details. While it is impossible for any web site to be completely impregnable to fraud, our system of a secure server and encryption offers a good level of security that you can be confident with.

The card details are only transported to a Bank to authorise the purchase. Card details are kept on secure electronic file for the purpose of refund if necessary.
You can check that you are using a secure service by looking for the padlock icon at the bottom right of your browser.

Post and Packing

Post & packing prices are based on orders to Australian addresses only. Every effort is taken to transport Coco Chocolate products in perfect condition. Please note, though we ensure that all products leave the Coco store and kitchens in perfect order, we can not take responsibility for handling by couriers or Australia Post.

A signature will be required for Coco Chocolate parcels so please ensure you provide an address where the items can be signed for on the delivery day. If we have to re-direct the items a charge will be made to cover that cost. Valid post codes are required for every order. We will not send any orders without one. If you provide an incorrect address, including the postcode, Coco does not accept any responsibility for a failure of an order to arrive or any costs involved in redirecting that order.

We aim to send orders the day after they are recieved. Most deliveries arrive within 48 hours, but may take up to 3-10 day working days.

Because delivery is handled by outside contractors we cannot guarantee delivery although we use our reasonable endeavours to ensure delivery within 48 hours.

In hot or extremely cold weather, Coco reserves the right to delay your order until the weather has moderated. In extreme situations this can delay orders for several days. Coco cannot accept any liability for damage or loss.

Damaged Goods

In the event that your chocolate is damaged in transit please contact Coco within 24 hours of receipt. Products received by courier should be checked before being signed for. If the exterior packaging or the product are found to be damaged you must then sign “checked and found to be damaged”. When products sent by Australia Post are not delivered please contact us for details of the tracking and tracing procedure. If products sent by Courier and not delivered please contact us for details of the online and telephone tracking procedure. If orders are considered by Coco to be lost in transit after a reasonable period time has elapsed we shall at our discretion either refund or resend the order.
