It is the aim of GFOats Australia to supply customers with the freshest products possible, therefore GF Oats Australia do not offer refunds or exchanges or accept returns of products that have been ordered in error.

If any stock delivered to you is faulty or arrives in an unusable condition, please contact us immediately.

Replacements of parcels that are "missing" while in transit from the GF Oats Australia warehouse are subject to a waiting period of three (3) weeks. During this time GF Oats Australia will work with the customer and the freight carrier to resolve the issue. In the event that the issue cannot be resolved, GF Oats Australia will replace the order. The choice to replace /refund is at the discretion of GFOats.com.au. Sometimes during transit, boxes might get slightly damaged. Provided that the product is usable, GFOats.com.au is not under obligation to replace or refund goods.

While we endeavour to respond to customer enquiries within a timeframe of 48 business hours it is important to note that we are a small team and sometimes it isn't possible for us to respond as quickly as we would like. This is especially true in peak busy times where all hands are needed elsewhere in the business and/or for enquiries that require investigating. We thank our customers for their patience and understanding if you find that it takes us a little longer than usual to get back to you. We do have a telephone service listed, however this may not quicken the process as we attend to enquiries in priority.

All our staff deserve to be treated with respect and courtesy. Management will be made aware of any interactions where staff are not treated accordingly to our expectations.

We reserve the right to refuse service to anyone for any reason at any time.
