How do I activate my card? You register your card on your card provider's site by selecting the option to set up payment authentication. You will be prompted to enter your card details and set a password. Once you have registered your card, when you shop online in the future you will only have to enter your password.

An authorisation will show on your bank statement as a reservation of funds that allocates the money to your order. The funds are then debited when we have processed your item(s) for delivery. Sometimes this shows up as two charges and will correct itself within 2-3 working days.

You may be looking at a promotion price that has since expired.
For online orders, we may occasionally adjust the pricing of items for short term promotions such as daily deals. Such pricing is only available for a brief period of time. To understand when the promotion ends, you can usually see this in the promotion banner on our website or on any promotional emails that you may have received.
Additionally, please note that some products feature different pricing per size / colour / style etc.
Please be aware that we cannot retrospectively change or negotiate the pricing of items within your order. We will also not be able to honour promotions that have since expired.
We make every effort to keep your shopping experience as easy and accurate as possible for you, but if you do experience a problem with item pricing from how a price is displayed on the website compared to what you are seeing during checkout. Please contact us so we can investigate this further.

We know that accessories can make or break your gaming experience. If something stops working, it could ruin your setup and your fun. And on top of it all, you might have to fork out for a suitable replacement. Don’t worry though, because we’ve got a plan.
We teamed up with Domestic & General, the UK’s leading specialist warranty provider, to bring you ACCESSORY CARE. It’s been created to help you get back in the game as soon as possible and to complement your manufacturer’s or retailer’s guarantee.
If you find yourself with a broken accessory, we could approve a replacement for you. You’ll have immediate protection against damage caused by accident – something that’s not usually included in most guarantees. And once the guarantee ends, you’ll be protected against breakdowns and faults for another year.
Key benefits:
Protection against breakdown or mishap
Instant replacement in-store or breakdowns outside of manufacturer's guarantee and /or accidental damage
BENEFITS:
Protection against breakdown Whether it’s a stuck button on your controller, or no sound coming through your headphones, if your accessory goes on the blink, we’ll replace it.
Protection against mishap We don’t expect you to wrap your accessories in cotton wool. If your product suffers a mishap, we’ll fix it.
Instant replacement No waiting around. Pop into the store with proof of purchase and we will swap out your broken accessory for the same item, a similar item or GAME vouchers
Help & advice From set up issues to cable dilemmas, our Tech Support team of experts at our UK based Contact Centre are on hand to take your calls.
Your Accessory care plan can be cancelled within 45 days of purchase, and you’ll receive a full refund, provided you have not used any services under the plan.
This question depends entirely on the terms of your home insurance.
Care Plans are repair/replacement service agreements and not insurance. We do NOT cover for loss or theft. In general, home insurance will cover theft and mishap but not mechanical breakdown. Also there is usually an excess charge on a home insurance to any claims made. We do NOT charge any excess on any of the benefits of our plans.
A Care Plan protects your product against mishaps and includes all parts, labour and callout charges. A manufacturer’s warranty does not cover for mishaps, only mechanical breakdown.
Un-repairable items: A Care Plan will provide GAME vouchers to the value of a like-for-like replacement.
Once an agreement is coming to an end, we will send a letter around 6 weeks before it’s due to expire. We will include a quote for a 12-month extension. This will happen every year until the plan in no longer required.
All GAME Care plans are only available to persons over the age of 18 years of age who are residents I the UK. Persons under the age of 18 years of age will need a parent or guardian to take out the plan on their behalf.
Your product is protected against mechanical breakdown or damage through mishap (other than cosmetic) and includes all parts, labour and callout charges.
You may still be able to get your product covered. If you’ve purchased your product from any GAME store or GAME.co.uk we give you 30 days to take out Breakdown Care, as long as your product hasn’t been damaged in the meantime. Simply return to any GAME store with your original purchase receipt and a team member will help you.
Your Breakdown Care for your pre-ordered product will commence from launch day. Your product will be covered for 2 years, including the 1-year manufacturer's guarantee. Domestic & General will send you all your documentation in the post to your delivery address within 14 days of the launch date of your product.
To claim, please contact Domestic & General as soon as possible by telephone on 0800597 8618*.
Once the claim has been approved, Domestic & General will advise you of the contact details for our engineer.
You will have to arrange and pay for the packaging of the product, but Domestic & General will pay for the postage (or Domestic & General may arrange for a courier to collect your product). While not a requirement, it is recommended that you use the product's original packaging.
*Calls may be recorded and monitored for quality and training purposes
If your product can't be fixed, you could receive a replacement of the same or similar specification or a GAME voucher towards a replacement. If you receive a replacement equipment or a GAME voucher, your policy will end. All you'd have to pay are applicable delivery charges.
We want you to enjoy using your new and pre-owned products for years to come. Your manufacturer’s product guarantee provides cover for mechanical and electrical breakdown but will be limited to a year and may not cover parts or breakdown through mishap.
That’s where Breakdown Care, provided by the UK’s leading specialist warranty provider Domestic & General, can help. Designed to cover you against the cost of repairs for breakdowns and accidental damage, Breakdown Care gives you an extra year of cover after your guarantee expires.
Extended cover does not have to be purchased at the same time as a domestic electrical good.
Your Breakdown Care policy can be cancelled within 45 days of purchase, and you’ll receive a full refund.
If we provide you with replacement equipment or a GAME voucher, your policy will cease. All you’d have to pay are applicable delivery charges.
You should be advised that extended warranties are available from other high street outlets, insurance companies and other providers. Cover may also be available for limited periods on some appliances from your credit card provider. Some household contents insurance policies offer cover for accidental damage, fire or theft. You may, however, find that an excess is payable and a claim may affect the cost of the subsequent insurance premiums.
Your policy documents will be sent to your delivery address within 14 days.
Your statutory rights will not be affected when you buy a policy. These include the right to claim a refund, repair, or replacement for up to six years (in Scotland it’s up to five years after you became aware, or could with reasonable diligence have become aware there was a problem) if your electrical goods were not of satisfactory quality or fit for purpose when they were sold to you. After the first six months, you will have to prove that the goods had a fault when sold to you. For further information about your statutory rights contact the Citizens Advice Bureau: 03444 111 444.
Domestic & General Insurance PLC is covered by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme. If we cannot meet our obligations to you under the policy, compensation may be available to cover these obligations. The compensation provides for 90% of any claim with no upper limit on the amount of the claim.
You can use your Breakdown Care for accidental damage from day one of your cover.
If your product has broken down due to a fault, your breakdown cover starts after the first 12 months as those are covered by the manufacturer’s guarantee (or GAME if your console is preowned).
Your Breakdown Care policy can be cancelled within 45 days of purchase, and you will receive a full refund. Please return to the store with your documentation and receipt.
After the 45 day 'Cooling off period'
Your policy can be cancelled after 45 days of purchase, and you will receive a refund of the premium paid by you for the remaining full months of your policy.
To cancel your policy after the first 45 days, please write to us at Domestic & General Insurance PLC, Leicester House, 17 Leicester Street, Bedworth, Warwickshire CV12 8JP or click on 'contact us' at www.domesticandgeneral.com. You will need to send in your documentation and receipt.

Digital Scams are growing in the UK and at GAME we want to stop this from happening.
What is a digital Scam?
A digital scam is where yourself or someone you know is taken advantage of by individuals looking for you to purchase digital cards such as Gift Cards, iTunes Cards or Steam cards and pay for them and then handover the codes to the fraudsters. For example, have you recently had a cold call or E-Mail (note: scams are not limited to taking these forms) from someone asking you to pay them using digital credit (most commonly Steam and iTunes) stating any of the following:
• You owe money to HMRC?
• You owe money to a previous or current phone company?
• You owe money for a previous PayPal or Gumtree purchase?
• You owe money for previous shipping fees for a product?
• You can donate steam, Amazon or iTunes vouchers towards sick on underprivileged children?
• You have had an E-Mail or message from someone stating to be your line manager or above (CEO) to buy digital credit?
If you answered yes to any of the above you might be the victim of an attempted digital scam. Remember Apple (iTunes) and Steam gift cards can ONLY be used to purchase items direct from that company. If you're approached to use the cards for any other payment, you could very likely be the target of a scam. Do not provide the numbers on the back of the gift card to anyone that you don't know.
The FCA (Financial Conduct Authority) have a dedicated page where you can find out how to protect yourself from the most common types of scams. You can access the information here.

WEEE Regulations
The Waste and Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Directive is UK law.
The legislation aims to make producers pay for the collection, treatment and recovery of waste electrical equipment. The regulations also mean that suppliers of equipment like high street shops and internet retailers must allow consumers to return their waste equipment free of charge.
The amount of WEEE we throw away is increasing by around 5% each year, making it the fastest growing waste stream in the UK.
Much of the UK’s WEEE ends up in landfill, where the lead and other toxins it contains can cause soil and water contamination. This can have a harmful effect on natural habitat, wildlife and also human health.
Many electrical items that we throw away can be repaired or recycled. Recycling items helps to save our natural finite resources and also reduces the environmental and health risks associated with sending electrical goods to landfill.
Distributors of Electrical Electronic Equipment (EEE) have a part to play in reducing the amount of WEEE going into landfill sites.
We are obliged under these regulations to offer our customers free take-back of their WEEE on a like-for-like basis when you buy from us a new Electrical or Electronic product.
For example, if a customer bought a new stopwatch/pedometer from us we would accept their stopwatch/pedometer and prevent it going into landfill site by disposing of it safely. Customers must return their WEEE item to us within 28 days of purchasing their new item.
Under the WEEE regulations, all new electrical goods should now be marked with the crossed-out wheeled bin symbol shown below:
Goods are marked with this symbol to show that they were produced after 13th August 2005, and should be disposed of separately from the normal household waste so that they can be recycled.
Our right to vary these terms and conditions
The Seller reserves the right to revise and amend these terms and conditions from time to time. You will be subject to the terms and conditions that are in force at the time that you order goods from the Seller unless:
any change to these terms and conditions is required to be made by law or governmental authority, in which case the changes may apply to orders previously placed by you; or
the Seller notifies you of any changes to these terms and conditions before it accepts your order, in which case the Seller has the right to assume that you have accepted the change to the terms and conditions unless you notify the Seller to the contrary within seven (7) working days of receipt by you of the goods.
Governing law and jurisdiction
These terms and conditions are subject to English law.
The courts of England and Wales shall have exclusive jurisdiction over all claims or disputes (whether contractual or non-contractual) arising in relation to, out of or in connection with these terms and conditions.
Nothing in these terms and conditions is intended to affect your statutory rights.

As of 30th July 2012, the PEGI Ratings on video games stopped being voluntary guidelines and are now legally enforceable ratings.
The PEGI (Pan European Game Information) system was introduced several years ago as a way of indicating the age ranges that a game is suitable for. The PEGI System is now classified by the Video Standards Council, rating each game on its content, rather than its playability or difficulty.
Each game is rated at one of five age levels, and like BBFC ratings, it is an offence to supply a game to anyone below the rightful age limit, and punishable by a fine up to £5000 or up to 6 months in prison. ID may be required to purchase higher age-rated games.
The BBFC will continue to rate non-game footage in games, such as trailers, featurettes, and bonus DVDs. They will also remain responsible for classifying any games featuring pornographic material.
So you can be sure the game you are choosing is appropriate for you or your child, the age logo will appear on the front cover, and on the listing page for the game on our website.
PEGI RATING
DESCRIPTION
The content of games with a PEGI 3 rating is considered suitable for all age groups. The game should not contain any sounds or pictures that are likely to frighten young children. A very mild form of violence (in a comical context or a childlike setting) is acceptable. No bad language should be heard.
Game content with scenes or sounds that can possibly be frightening to younger children should fall in this category. Very mild forms of violence (implied, non-detailed, or non-realistic violence) are acceptable for a game with a PEGI 7 rating.
Video games that show violence of a slightly more graphic nature towards fantasy characters or non-realistic violence towards human-like characters would fall in this age category. Sexual innuendo or sexual posturing can be present, while any bad language in this category must be mild.
This rating is applied once the depiction of violence (or sexual activity) reaches a stage that looks the same as would be expected in real life. The use of bad language in games with a PEGI 16 rating can be more extreme, while the use of tobacco, alcohol or illegal drugs can also be present.
The adult classification is applied when the level of violence reaches a stage where it becomes a depiction of gross violence, apparently motiveless killing, or violence towards defenseless characters. The glamorisation of the use of illegal drugs and of the simulation of gambling, and explicit sexual activity should also fall into this age category.
In addition to the numerical PEGI ratings, you will also see the "Parental Guidance Recommended" rating for some non-game apps, introduced by PEGI for storefronts that use IARC. This serves as a warning that these apps can offer a broad variety of user generated or curated content. Typically, this applies to products such as Facebook, Twitter or YouTube.
Content Descriptors
PEGI also have a series of Content Descriptors, which provide extra information detailing what kind of content is in the game and why it has been given a particular rating. This should help customers make an informed decision whether the game is right for them.
CONTENT DESCRIPTOR
DESCRIPTION
Violence
The game contains depictions of violence. In games rated PEGI 7 this can only be non-realistic or non-detailed violence. Games rated PEGI 12 can include violence in a fantasy environment or non-realistic violence towards human-like characters, whereas games rated PEGI 16 or 18 have increasingly more realistic-looking violence.
Bad Language
The game contains bad language. This descriptor can be found on games with a PEGI 12 (mild swearing), PEGI 16 (e.g. sexual expletives or blasphemy) or PEGI 18 rating (e.g. sexual expletives or blasphemy).
Fear/Horror
This descriptor may appear as 'Fear' on games with a PEGI 7 if it contains pictures or sounds that may be frightening or scary to young children, or as 'Horror' on higher-rated games that contain moderate (PEGI 12) or intense and sustained (PEGI 16) horror sequences or disturbing images (not necessarily including violent content).
Sex/Nudity
This content descriptor can accompany a PEGI 12 rating if the game includes sexual posturing or innuendo, a PEGI 16 rating if there is erotic nudity or sexual intercourse without visible genitals or a PEGI 18 rating if there is explicit sexual activity in the game. Depictions of nudity in a non-sexual context do not require a specific age rating, and this descriptor would not be necessary.
Drugs
The game refers to or depicts the use of illegal drugs, alcohol or tobacco. Games with this content descriptor are always PEGI 16 or PEGI 18.
Gambling
The game contains elements that encourage or teach gambling. These simulations of gambling refer to games of chance that are normally carried out in casinos or gambling halls. Some older titles can be found with PEGI 12 or PEGI 16, but PEGI changed the criteria for this classification in 2020, which made that new games with this sort of content are always PEGI 18.
Discrimination
The game contains depictions of ethnic, religious, nationalistic or other stereotypes likely to encourage hatred. This content is always restricted to a PEGI 18 rating (and likely to infringe national criminal laws).
In-Game Purchases
The game offers players the option to purchase digital goods or services with real-world currency. Such purchases include additional content (bonus levels, outfits, surprise items, music), but also upgrades (e.g. to disable ads), subscriptions to updates, virtual coins and other forms of in-game currency.
Online Gaming
These serve a useful purpose on a pan-European basis where there are different views on levels of acceptability in the matter of bad language, sex and nudity.
Paid Random Items
This content descriptor is sometimes accompanied by an additional notice if the in-game purchases include random items (like loot boxes or card packs). Paid random items comprise all in-game offers where players don't know exactly what they are getting prior to the purchase. They can be purchased directly with real money and/or exchanged for an in-game virtual currency. Depending on the game, these items may be purely cosmetic or they may have functional value.
The notice is always displayed underneath or near the age label and content descriptors.

Payment authentication or 3D secure are fraud prevention initiatives launched by card issuers.
Verified by VISA (VbV) and MasterCard Secure Code (MSC) work in the same way, using passwords that you set up with the card provider to protect you when you shop online. You will then be required to enter your password during the payment process when you shop with us.
How do I activate my card? You register your card on your card provider's site by selecting the option to set up payment authentication. You will be prompted to enter your card details and set a password. Once you have registered your card, when you shop online in the future you will only have to enter your password.
Who do I contact for further information? If you require more information around the payment authentication process, please contact your card issuer directly.
If your card is rejected by our online payment processing system, please double check that all of the details entered are matching your billing information.
If you are sure you are using a valid card, please try again with the same credit or debit card or place the order again using a different card. If the problem persists, please contact your card provider.
We have no control over the payment authentication process so we will be unable to assist with any authentication inquiries.
Please note your order will only be processed once we have received authorisation from your payment card issuer to process the payment.
If you are getting error messages when making a payment, please make sure you have entered all the details correctly. You might want to contact your payment provider to make sure there are no problems with your account.
If you’re still experiencing problems, please contact us and include as much detail as you can around the error:
The error message you are seeing
A description of the problem
What payment method you are trying to use
What the products are you’re trying to purchase
What internet browser you are using or if you are using our app
Any other details that could be useful
If your credit/debit card was declined, please check if your card has expired or perhaps your billing address for the card is different from the one you have on file with us. Your card provider will have more information.

We only take payment for an item after it has been processed. However, in the interim before processing, we will take an authorisation. An authorisation will show on your bank statement as a reservation of funds that allocates the money to your order. The funds are then debited when we have processed your item(s) for delivery. Sometimes this shows up as two charges and will correct itself within 2-3 working days.
In the event of us not being able to fulfil your order we immediately contact your bank to request that your bank cancels the authorisation. If the authorisation still remains after several days, please contact your bank to request that they act upon our cancellation of the payment.
Once you've placed your order, the order starts going through the system straight away, so that we can get it to you as fast as possible.
Unfortunately we are unable to add or remove items, change colours or sizes, change delivery address, delivery options or the email address on the order.
If you've changed your mind and no longer need the item, please arrange the for the item to returned once received. Or if you're wanting to order something else, you will need to place a separate order in the usual way.
If you wish to notify us of your cancellation request, please complete a cancellation form and submit this by using the Contact Us button and submit a ticket to our Customer Services team.
If your order already has been processed following your form being submitted, our customer services team will advise on how to return your order.
Please note: for items already delivered, these are unable to be cancelled, and you will have to follow our returns process to receive a refund.
If you are using an eVoucher the code and pin can be found in the grey box in the email received. It will looks something like this:
If you are using a Contactless Gift Card from a 3rd party retailer, these work like a bank/credit card. If you are struggling to use this please check: Apply Gift Card, eVoucher or Credit Note.
Gift Card
If you are using a Gift card purchased in store then the code and pin can be found on the back of your gift card under the bar code. To reveal the pin number you will need to scratch off the silver box.
Store Credit Note
If you have previously returned an item to store and received a credit note these can only be used online if there is a 4 digit pin included on your credit note. This can be located on the credit note supplied with your refund receipt by the store.
Sometimes you need to be quick! We only show items on our website that are in stock. Check back as we re-stock as well as getting new items regularly.
Our Customer Service team will not know if an item is coming back in stock.
Many of our online products are also available in some of our stores, but usually in limited quantities and for a limited time. You can contact your local Flannels store to check their stock.
Most of our product information can be found on our website, when viewing the product page. This includes the images showing what the product looks like. We also show more information on the product description, or within the product specification such as materials, sizing etc.
If you have checked the website and are still needing additional information which isn't covered, please get in touch with our Customer Service team so we can help you further.

Deductions from refunds from Online purchases if you are relying on our GAME returns policy:
We may reduce your refund of the price (excluding delivery costs) to reflect any reduction in the value of the products, if this has been caused by your handling them in a way which would not be permitted in a shop.
We may reduce your refund of the price (excluding delivery costs) where you fail to return each component part (cables, memory sticks, etc.) and to take account of the reduction in value caused by any damage or missing components.

If we refund you the price paid before we are able to inspect the products and later discover you have handled them in an unacceptable way, you must pay us an appropriate amount.
The maximum refund for delivery costs will be the costs of delivery by the least expensive delivery method we offer. For example, if we offer delivery of a product within 3-5 days at one cost but you choose to have the product delivered within 24 hours at a higher cost, then we will only refund what you would have paid for the cheaper delivery option.
For oversized items, where we arrange the collection on your behalf, we reserve the right to deduct the delivery costs from the amount refunded.
When will your refund for an Online purchase be made? Your refund will be made
