How do I know whether an item is available to buy?

Any item that is in stock for immediate dispatch will have a 'Buy' button; this can be seen in the search results or when viewing the product's page.

I have forgotten my password. Can you remind me?

Yes, go to the hmv Ireland site of your country of origin (i.e. hmv.ie or hmvireland.co.uk) and click on 'Log In' in the top right hand corner.

At the bottom of the page you should click on 'Forgotten your password?'. You will be prompted to enter your registered e-mail address.

You will need to click on 'send my password'; your password will then be sent to your registered e-mail address, please allow at least 10 minutes for this to arrive.

Alternatively you can click here to Login.

Can I change my payment and address details?

Yes. You can change your address and credit card details at any time during the buying process.

You can also add an additional delivery address separate to the billing address registered to your account.

Note: Once you have completed the checkout process you will be unable to update your card details or delivery address for that order.

Why has my order been split into two or more individual order numbers?

Should you buy more than one item within the same order it is possible that the products will be dispatched from 2 different warehouses or need to be dispatched on different dates (for example pre-orders).

If this is the case, your order will automatically be split into different order numbers. Some promotions and offers may not be applicable when your order is split into multiple orders.

How many items can I buy at a time?

You will be able to add a total number of 20 items to your basket.

Note: If you wish to purchase more than 20 items you will need to place a separate order.

How Can I buy an item from Xtra-vision?

To buy an item you need to click on the 'Buy' button. This will add the title to your basket. You may then either continue shopping or progress to the checkout. At any time, you may review the contents of your basket by clicking on the basket link, which is located in the top right hand corner of every page.

Should you want to remove an item from your basket you can do so by clicking on the 'Remove' button next to the item you want to remove.

Can I default my delivery address and credit card details for future orders?

If you wish to continue to use the same address and credit card details for future orders, you can speed up the order process by simply ticking the 'Make these my default payment and delivery options.' box located on the order confirmation screen.

This is located directly above the box that you must tick to agree to our Terms & Conditions.

Should you wish to change your default delivery address, billing address, or credit card details without making a purchase you can do this at any time by going to 'My Account' and then 'Change your Online Store Payment and Delivery Settings'.

How does the Checkout work?

Once you have finished shopping you can proceed to the checkout to pay for your goods. The checkout consists of 5 simple steps:

We guarantee that in the event that the price drops after you have pre-ordered your item you will automatically be charged the lower of the prices.
