Open the Amazon UK Website

Go to www.amazon.co.uk using any web browser. You can do this on a computer, phone, or tablet. Make sure you have a stable internet connection.

Sign in to Your Account

Click the “Sign In” button at the top right corner of the page. Enter your email or phone number, then your password. Once signed in, you’ll be taken to your account homepage.

Go to “Your Orders”

Hover over the “Accounts & Lists” tab. Click on “Your Orders” from the drop-down menu. This page will show all your past orders.

Find the Item You Want to Return

Scroll through your order history. Locate the item you want to return. Make sure it is still within the return window. Most items can be returned within 30 days of delivery.

Click “Return or Replace Items”

Under the selected item, click the “Return or Replace Items” button. A new page will load where you can choose the reason for the return.

Select a Reason for Return

Use the drop-down menu to pick the reason you are returning the item. You may also be asked to leave a comment or explanation. Be honest and clear about the issue.

Choose Your Preferred Refund Method

Amazon may offer several refund options. This could be a refund to your original payment method, a gift card balance, or an exchange. Select your preference and click “Continue.”

Select a Return Method

Amazon will show you available return options. These can include drop-off at Royal Mail, an Amazon Locker, or collection from your address. Pick the one that works best for you.

Save the Return Code

Amazon will email you a return code or label. If it's a QR code, show it at the drop-off point. If it’s a label, print and attach it securely.

Track the Refund Status

Go back to “Your Orders” and click “View Return/Refund Status.” You can check the status of your return or refund here. Refunds usually take 5–7 business days after the item is received.

Contact Amazon Customer Service (If Needed)

If your refund is delayed or rejected, contact Amazon UK Customer Service. Scroll to the bottom of the website and click “Help.” Then, select “Need More Help?” and choose how you want to speak to an agent; chat or phone call.
