how do I cancel a The Watch Corp order after it has shipped

You can't cancel it, you return it. Email `info@thewatchcorp.com` quoting your order number (or reply to your order confirmation email) and ask for a **Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) number**. Parcels sent back without that RMA are refused on arrival. Returns must be requested within 60 days of receiving the order, tags and seals must be intact, you pay the return postage, and the dispatch shipping cost is deducted from the refund. Send the parcel tracked and insured, they explicitly advise recorded delivery and put non-delivery risk on you.

is there a cancellation or restocking fee at The Watch Corp

There's no cancellation fee as such, but the refund is rarely the full amount. Terms state the dispatch shipping cost of **£5.55 is deducted** from every refund, and you cover return postage yourself. If a watch shows signs of wear or the seals have been removed, a further £15 deduction applies, rising to £45 where strap links were removed. Reject a replacement on a faulty watch and they deduct the shipping plus a £15 replacement warranty booklet cost. Reviewers' most common complaint is that these charges only surface after the parcel is back with them.

how long do I have to return a watch to The Watch Corp

Sixty days from receiving your order, the site advertises "60 Day Returns" and the terms confirm that **no requests will be considered after 60 days**. The clock is on the *request*, so email `info@thewatchcorp.com` for your RMA number well before day 60 even if the watch isn't packed yet. Faulty items follow the same 60-day framing for who pays return postage: they cover it only where the item is found defective within 60 days of purchase. Separately, warranty claims made after 28 days leave you liable for postage.

does The Watch Corp cover water damage or condensation under warranty

No. Watches carry a 2-year movement warranty (90 days on automatic movements), but the policy **excludes water damage and condensation**, along with accidental damage, wear and tear, engraving, straps, lost stones and plating. Their stated reason is that they cannot prove whether the watch was misused in water. Reviewers describe this being applied even to watches marketed as water resistant. If the fault appeared soon after delivery, argue it as a product that wasn't of satisfactory quality at the point of sale rather than as a warranty claim.

can I return a watch I've already worn or resized?

Not cleanly. Returns require all tags and seals intact and the item in the same condition it was sent out. If they judge the watch to have been worn or the seals removed, one policy page says a refund for return is void, while the terms version applies a £15 deduction, and £45 where strap links were removed. Practical advice: don't cut tags, don't have the bracelet resized, and don't set the time beyond checking it runs until you're certain you're keeping it.

do I have to pay return postage to The Watch Corp

Yes, on unwanted items, goods go back to head office at your expense, and the terms warn that the original dispatch cost is deducted too, which is the single biggest complaint in their reviews given the "free delivery" promise at checkout. The exception: they cover return costs where the item is found defective or faulty within 60 days of purchase. On warranty repairs, postage is covered if the claim is made within 28 days of purchase; after that it's on you.

can I cancel a The Watch Corp order by phone instead of email?

You can call +44 20 7866 2527, and for a pre-dispatch cancellation a phone call is the fastest way to catch the parcel before it goes out. But make the email the record: send the same request to `info@thewatchcorp.com` with your order number so there's a timestamped trail. Their terms say notices to them must be sent by email to that address and are deemed received 24 hours after sending, which makes email, not the phone, the channel that legally counts when you're disputing a charge later.

Why am I still being charged after cancelling The Watch Corp?

Usually one of three things: the cancellation never completed (no written confirmation), the subscription bills through Apple or Google and must be cancelled there, or a minimum term is still running. Charges continuing after a confirmed cancellation can be disputed with your bank as a chargeback.

How do I delete my The Watch Corp account?

Cancel the subscription first, then request account deletion in settings or by email. If there is no self-serve option, email a written erasure request citing the applicable data-protection law; most companies complete erasure within about 30 days.

What happens to what you’ve already paid

The Watch Corp sells one-off watch orders, there is no subscription, no recurring plan and nothing to "unsubscribe" from, so every refund question is an order/return question. For unwanted watches, you must request the return within 60 days of receiving the order and get an RMA number first; unauthorised parcels are refused, you pay return postage, and the original dispatch shipping cost is deducted from the refund. For faulty watches the default remedy is a replacement rather than cash back, and refusing a replacement still leaves deductions for shipping and a replacement warranty booklet. Watches that are worn, have seals or tags removed, or have had strap links taken out attract further deductions or lose refund eligibility entirely, and water/condensation damage is excluded from the 2-year movement warranty outright.

“WE DEDUCT THE SHIPPING COST WE PAY AT THE TIME OF DISPATCH (£5.55). YOU ARE LIABLE FOR THE COST OF RETURN BACK TO US. IF THE WATCH IS FAULTY WE WILL OFFER A REPLACEMENT. IF YOU REJECT A REPLACEMENT WE WILL REFUND YOU MINUS THE SHIPPING (£5.55) AND REPLACEMENT WARRANTY BOOKLET COST (£15).”

Does The Watch Corp charge a cancellation fee?

We found no cancellation fee in The Watch Corp’s published terms. On a rolling plan you simply pay to the end of the current billing period and nothing after. If you’re inside a fixed minimum term, check your signup email for the end date, cancelling early is where fees usually hide.

What doesn’t work for cancelling The Watch Corp

Based on 6 sources, Reddit, app reviews, and direct testing. Skip these and save yourself the loop.

✕ Cancelling an order yourself from the account area after it has shipped, Their FAQ states that once an order has been shipped it is not possible to change or cancel it, the only route left is the returns process.
✕ Posting a watch back without asking for an RMA number first, Terms say packages returned without prior authorisation will not be accepted, so the parcel can be refused and bounced back at your cost.
✕ Expecting a full refund on an unwanted watch, The dispatch shipping cost (£5.55) is deducted from the refund and the customer pays return postage, something reviewers repeatedly say was never flagged before the refund landed.
✕ Claiming for condensation or water ingress under warranty, Water damage/condensation is explicitly excluded from warranty cover, with the stated reason that misuse in water cannot be disproved, multiple reviewers report flat refusals even on water-resistant models.
✕ Returning a watch you have worn, resized or unsealed, Tags and seals must be intact; deductions apply where the watch shows wear or seals are removed, and larger deductions where strap links were taken out.
✕ Asking for the difference back after a price drop, Their FAQ says they cannot reimburse the difference after an order has been placed.
✕ Chasing a non-delivery refund without the courier paper trail, Reviewers report being answered with Royal Mail tracking and signature evidence rather than a refund when a parcel was mis-delivered.

Cancelled The Watch Corp but still being charged?

Three common reasons, in order of likelihood:

The cancellation didn’t actually complete. If you never received a written confirmation from The Watch Corp, treat it as not cancelled. Email info@thewatchcorp.com referencing your original request date and ask for written confirmation plus a refund of any charge taken since.
You cancelled in the wrong place. Subscriptions started through the App Store or Google Play bill through Apple or Google, cancelling on The Watch Corp’s site doesn’t touch them. Check Settings → Subscriptions on iPhone, or Play Store → Payments & subscriptions on Android.
Billing lag. A charge that was already in flight when you cancelled can still land a few days later. One trailing charge can be normal; two is not.

If they keep charging after a confirmed cancellation, that’s chargeback territory: dispute the charge with your bank citing “subscription cancelled, merchant continued billing”. The yoink app also flags this automatically, it keeps watching your inbox after a confirmed cancellation and alerts you if The Watch Corp charges again.

How The Watch Corp will try to keep you

The Watch Corp may respond with a retention offer, a discount, a free month, or a downgrade to a cheaper tier. Don't engage with the counteroffer. Restate that you want a full cancellation and cite the consumer law again if they push back.

They’ll say: “Offering a repair or replacement instead of money back on a faulty watch.”
You say: State in writing that you are rejecting the replacement and requesting a refund of the purchase price, and ask them to confirm the exact deductions in writing before you post anything back.
They’ll say: “Attributing the fault to misuse, especially condensation, water ingress or a flat battery, so the claim falls outside warranty.”
You say: Ask them to specify which warranty clause they are relying on and to confirm whether they inspected the watch, then point out the item was sold as water resistant and you are treating the fault as present at delivery.
They’ll say: “Disclosing the £5.55 dispatch deduction and restocking-style charges only once the returned watch is back with them.”
You say: Quote the checkout's "free delivery" promise back at them and ask for an itemised breakdown of every deduction in writing; dispute anything that was not shown before you ordered.
They’ll say: “Replying to complaints by asking the customer to take down or amend the negative public review before the issue is progressed.”
You say: Keep the review and the refund request separate: say you'll update the review once the refund clears, and keep every message in one email thread as your paper trail.
They’ll say: “Answering a missing-parcel refund with courier tracking and signature evidence rather than a remedy.”
You say: Reply that the contract is with them, not the courier, and that the goods were not received in a usable state, ask them to open the courier claim themselves and refund you in the meantime.
They’ll say: “Long silences on email threads once a refund is requested.”
You say: Send a dated follow-up citing the original email, state a clear deadline for a response, and note that you will otherwise raise a chargeback or card-issuer claim with your payment provider.

Delete your The Watch Corp account (not just cancel)

Cancelling stops the billing; deleting removes your account and personal data. Do them in that order, deleting an account with an active subscription can leave the billing running with no way to log in and stop it.

If there’s no delete option in The Watch Corp’s account settings, email info@thewatchcorp.com with the subject Account deletion request, [your account email] and ask for your account and personal data to be erased under data-protection law in most jurisdictions. They’re typically required to act on it, most companies complete erasure within about 30 days, and you should ask for written confirmation when it’s done.

Common questions about cancelling The Watch Corp

Only before the parcel leaves the warehouse. The Watch Corp's own FAQ says that **once your order has been shipped it is not possible to change or cancel it**, after that you're pushed into the returns process. Because orders placed before 12pm on a weekday are dispatched the same day, the practical cancellation window can be a couple of hours. Email `info@thewatchcorp.com` immediately with the subject "Cancellation, Order [number]" and call +44 20 7866 2527 to back it up. If it has already shipped, refuse delivery or request an RMA and return it within 60 days.
