Frequently Asked Questions

Here are answers to some of the most frequently asked questions. If you need additional assistance, please use our Online Live Chat, give us a call at (Our Number), or email us at contact2cateringwithus@gmail.com . We’ll be happy to help you find what you need.

Why am I receiving an error after submitting my credit card information?

It could be that your billing address has not been added to the account or marked accordingly.

It could also be that our shipping software is experiencing problems. In this case, contact our National Order Office at +1 256 841 0093 to place your order with an Equipment Supply Specialist or come back later and try to place your order again.

It could also be that your CVV2 number from your credit card is incorrect. The Cardholder Verification Value, CVV2, is a three or four-digit number used to help ensure that the cardholder has physical possession of the card while shopping online or by phone. This helps to prevent unauthorized or fraudulent use. Visa, MasterCard, and Discover cards have the three-digit number printed on the signature panel on the back of the card immediately following the card account number. The back panel of most Visa/MasterCard cards contains the full 16-digit account number followed by the CVV/CVC code. Some banks, though, only show the last four digits of the account number followed by the code. American Express cards have a four-digit non-embossed code located on the front of the card. The CVV2 value protects the customer and helps validate the following:

• The customer has the card in their possession.
• The card account is legitimate.
• It prevents the use of your credit card number without the matching CVV2 Code.

Do you sell to the General Public? Do I need to be a member or business owner to shop at CATERING WITH US?

Our stores and our website are open to the public, and we do not require "membership." If you are interested in one of these products and are not certain whether it’s for commercial use or non-commercial use, please call us at (Our number) to clarify.

How quickly will my order be shipped?

Due to our huge inventory, most orders are shipped from our distribution center in London no later than the following business day after the order is received.

If your order is received early enough in the day, we can often coordinate same-day shipment. However, all orders are subject to product availability and shipment according to our general shipping policies and procedures. Depending on your location and delivery requirements, our specialists can help you coordinate the most economical option for expedited delivery. However, CATERING WITH US cannot guarantee a carrier’s delivery time.

Can I order online and pick up my order in the store?

BUY ONLINE PICK UP IN STORE

If you are located near our London, Manchester, or Birmingham Warehouse Stores, you may wish to save shipping costs by picking up your order directly rather than having it shipped to you. Thousands of food service operators come to our stores with trucks or trailers and transport their purchases back to their place of business.

Orders you choose to pick up at one of our locations will be available 2 hours after the order is placed, provided all items are in stock and the order is received before 3 p.m. (GMT) Monday - Friday. If your order is placed after 3 p.m. (GMT) Monday - Thursday, it will be ready for pick up after 10 a.m. (GMT) the following day. If it is placed after 3 p.m. (GMT) on Friday or anytime on Saturday or Sunday, it will be available for pick up after 10 a.m. (GMT) Monday.

After placing your order:

• Wait until you receive a pickup notification email before you go to your chosen store location.

How long orders are held:

• 7 Calendar Days - If your order isn’t picked up after this time, your order may be canceled, and you’ll be refunded your payment.
• You can extend your pickup window by calling your local store.

Please call our Nationwide Order Office at (Our number) for assistance or to answer questions regarding Warehouse Store pick-up.

What does it mean if an item is listed as "LTL FREIGHT DELIVERY" Shipping?

If one or more of the items in your cart is listed as "LTL Freight Delivery," your entire order will be shipped via freight or common carrier rather than standard shipping due to its size or weight. Freight charges are automatically calculated for your order using our distribution center in London as the point of origin, and the price is quoted at the time of your checkout. Your shipping charge is calculated by our system shopping for the lowest possible shipping price from our selection of discounted freight carriers.

To save you money, YOUR ENTIRE ORDER WILL SHIP TOGETHER.

Yes! We accept Visa, MasterCard, American Express, and Discover cards. In addition, we accept PayPal for online orders only.

Can I pay by check?

Yes online orders can be paid using a credit card, debit card or a check. We can arrange for check payments in our store and over the phone with our Nationwide Order Office at (Our number).

Can I order products not shown on cateringwithus.com or in the CATTTERINGBYSHANI LTD catalogs and flyers?

CATTTERINGBYSHANI LTD has relationships with many of the best food service equipment and supply manufacturers in the industry. We can often obtain products not featured on our website, catalog, or in our stores. Such items are considered special orders and require personal assistance from our Equipment and Supply Specialists. They will identify your specific requirements, confirm availability, and coordinate your purchase and shipment from the manufacturer. Special Orders must be paid for when placing your order and, if shipped directly to you from the manufacturer, may have shipping charges different from those for a similar item carried and shipped to you from our distribution center. Contact our Nationwide Order Office at (Our number) for help with special orders.
