What are the new Visa payment security measures?
How our customers pay with their Visa online is about to get even safer and more secure. New security measures, called Strong Customer Authentication (SCA) have been introduced.
SCA is part of new laws that come into force right across UK & Europe. These laws introduce security measures called two-factor authentication to help make paying with visa safer for transactions made online and via contactless. They aim to give customers paying with their Visa and businesses accepting Visa payments an added layer of security whilst helping the banks ensure the card holder is authorising the payments.

There may therefore be a difference between the actual product and photographs of it on our website, or in our catalogue. All measurements and weights are approximate.
Whilst we endeavour to maintain advertised product colours and specifications during the lifetime of our catalogue, we reserve the right to change them and to discontinue particular products as we consider necessary.

Recycling Your Electrical & Electronic Waste (WEEE)
Unwanted electrical and electronic equipment is the UK’s fastest growing type of waste. If such equipment is not recycled or reused, it ends up in landfill sites where the hazardous substances it contains leak out and cause soil and water contamination. This contamination harms the natural habitat and wildlife and may also damage human health.
Many electrical and electronic items which we throw away can be reused, repaired or recycled. Doing so helps to save our natural finite resources and also reduces the environmental and health risks associated with sending these goods to landfill.
As part of our environmental responsibilities, we adhere to The Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Regulations 2006 which are otherwise known as the WEEE Regulations.
Where you purchase any electrical or electronic product from us (whether through one of our stores, through our Customer Care team or online from our website), we will take back free of charge, on a one for one basis, any equivalent electrical or electronic product. For example, if you purchase an electric steam steriliser, we will take back your old electric steam steriliser. The product you return for recycling need not have been purchased from us. We are not, however, obliged to take back any product which is not equivalent or similar to the new product you are purchasing.
To recycle through Mamas & Papas, the old product must be returned to us within 28 days of the purchase of the new product.
If, having purchased an electrical or electronic item from ourselves, you wish to return any equivalent electrical or electronic product for recycling, please contact our Customer Care team on 0818 005 298, and we will provide you with instructions as to how to do so. Please note it is mandatory that you contact us in this way before any electrical or electronic item is returned to us. It is not necessary for you to insure any items which are returned to us under the WEEE Regulations through the post. All items returned to us are recorded and disposed of as required by the Regulations.
Under the WEEE Regulations, all new electrical and electronic goods should now be marked with the crossed-out wheeled bin symbol shown below.
Goods marked with this symbol show that they were produced after 13th August 2005, and should be disposed of separately from normal household waste so that they can be recycled.

How does it work?

- Mamas & Papas will not accept posts which it deems to advertise commercial businesses or services, nor will Mamas & Papas accept posts which are posted on behalf of an individual which is using the post to promote an organisation which it has a professional connection with.
Please do not post images which you do not have the requisite consent to post, for example, please do not post images of a child or children unless you are the parent and / or you have the consent of the child or children’s parents or legal guardians before posting.

I posted on Social Media and used the #Mamasandpapas but I can't see my post on the Mamas & Papas site or Social Media page?
Unfortunately we can't use every image posted on Social Media, we also can't use images and/or videos we deem to be offensive or inappropriate. Further if the image is of a product that isn't available in the current catalogue then as we won't be able to match it up to a product available on the Mamas & Papas website, we may not post the image.
If I delete an image from my Social Media account or change my settings to be private, will the image be removed from the Mamas & Papas site or Social Media page?
No, Mamas & Papas cannot know if you change your preferences on any of your Social Media therefore any such changes to the post itself or your account privacy settings will not remove the image from our page. However, if you do want the image to be removed, simply use the relevant 'report it' button or email the moderators at [email protected] who will ensure the image is removed within two (2) working days of receipt of your email.
