If you realise you have entered an incorrect address, you must inform us before your order is dispatched by:
- Completing the Urgent Address Change form (available on our website and in your order confirmation email), or
- Emailing us immediately at hello(@)impossibrew.co.uk with your order number and correct address
We will make reasonable efforts to update your address if notified before dispatch. However, we cannot guarantee address changes will be successful if your order has already been prepared for shipping.
20.4 Address Changes After Dispatch
Once your order has been dispatched, address changes are extremely limited and subject to courier availability.
For orders shipped via DPD (UK Mainland only. Excluding Scottish Highlands and Islands, Northern Ireland, Jersey, Guernsey):
- We may be able to request an address change with DPD after dispatch
- This service is not guaranteed and depends on the parcel's location in the delivery network
- If successful, an additional charge of £5.50 will be applied to cover DPD's redirection fee
- You must contact us immediately at hello(@)impossibrew.co.uk with your order number and correct address
- Payment for the redirection fee must be made before we can request the change from DPD
Important limitations:
- Address changes after dispatch cannot be guaranteed
- If the parcel is already out for delivery or has been delivered, changes cannot be made
- Other courier services do not offer post-dispatch address changes
- We are not responsible if DPD is unable to redirect your parcel
If your parcel is delivered to an incorrect address that you provided at checkout and we cannot redirect it:
- We are not obligated to provide a refund or replacement
- We have fulfilled our contractual obligation by delivering to the address you specified
- You may attempt to retrieve the parcel from the incorrect address yourself
- We cannot be held liable for any loss, damage, or inability to retrieve the parcel
20.5 Delivery Timeframes
We aim to dispatch orders within 3 business days of receiving your order. Estimated delivery times after dispatch are:
- UK Mainland: 1-3 business days
- Scottish Highlands and Northern Ireland: 2-5 business days
- International: Not currently available
These are estimates only and are not guaranteed. Delivery times may vary due to courier workload, weather conditions, or other factors beyond our control. Business days are Monday to Friday, excluding UK bank holidays.
20.6 Failed Delivery Attempts
If the courier attempts delivery but you are not available:

20.7 Risk of Loss and Title
Risk of loss and title for products purchased passes to you:
- Upon delivery to the address you provided, or
- If delivery is unsuccessful due to your unavailability, when the parcel is returned to the courier depot and you are notified
From this point, you are responsible for any loss, damage, or theft of the products.
20.8 Damaged or Lost Parcels
Damaged in Transit:

20.9 Delivery to Safe Place
