I have a problem with my shopping basket

If items are disappearing from your shopping bag this is likely to be because our stock position has changed since you added the item to your basket. When this is the case a message will appear in the shopping basket to tell you. It could also be because you are using your internet browser's 'back' button, rather than selecting the 'Continue shopping' links on the shopping basket page.

If you are still having problems, try deleting the cookies on your PC. Simply select 'Tools' tab on your internet browser, select 'Internet Options', then choose 'Delete Cookies' and select OK. You should then be able to start over again.

I can't sign into my account / empty shopping bag

When shopping with us or accessing your account, we ask you to sign in. If you find that your email address or password is not recognised, please make sure you are using the same email address and password that you used when you registered with us.

If you can't remember your password, just type your email address in to the 'Forgotten your Password' box on the sign-in page, and we'll remind you what your password is.

You can change your password, main email address or any of your other details at any time just by signing in to your account.

I am not receiving your newsletters

If you are not receiving our emails or our regular newsletter, you could be missing out on latest offers, discounts and new product information.

One of the most common reasons for this that your email software is marking emails as junk mail sending them to your spam folder. To stop this from happening, please add Ryman to your email address book.

If you have checked this and are still not receiving the newsletter check your registered email address in 'My Account'.
