6. Fees and Payments:
Membership is on a rolling 6-month contract. Membership is to be paid monthly by Credit or Debit by Direct Debit (Stripe) subscription unless otherwise arranged in writing. Stripe is an automated monthly deduction from credit or debit accounts.
Replacement membership ID cards and lanyards will incur an additional cost of £10.
Late payment/default payment charges of 20% are chargeable after the first missed payment.
If a continuous membership renewal payment fails as a result of a debit/credit card no longer being active or a change of card (expiry date), Connections Unleashed will contact you to request updated card details. If you know that you have been issued with a new card since your last payment to us, it would be really helpful if you could update your Stripe account ahead of us trying to take this next payment. Failure to pay membership on time may result in termination of membership & refusal to events.
