TERMS AND CONDITIONS
FINANCIAL COMMITMENT
All of our subscriptions are available for an initial minimum term of 12 months.
Subscriptions can be paid either upfront by lump sum or by monthly direct debit. If you choose to pay your subscription monthly by Direct Debit, there will be an additional charge which will mean the total amount payable for your subscription will be greater than if you choose to pay as a lump sum upfront. Your first direct debit payment will be collected in advance on the last working day of the month of joining or on or around the 10th of the following month. Thereafter your monthly membership fees will be collected in advance on the last working day of the preceding month (e.g. membership fee for May will be collected on the last working day of April).
If you are paying by direct debit and you fall behind with your subscription fees and this is not caused by a bank error, we may charge reasonable administration fees or suspend or cancel your subscription; and we may pass your details to a debt-collection company to recover any outstanding payments.
We may decide to increase our subscription fees, but your fees will not increase in your initial minimum term of membership. We will give you a minimum of 14 days ‘ notice of any fee change. If you pay your subscription fees upfront as a lump sum payment, we will only review your subscription fees when your subscription is due for renewal.
SUBSCRIPTION TERM AND CANCELLATION
If you pay your subscription fees upfront in one single lump sum, your subscription will automatically renew once you have completed the minimum term, unless you choose to cancel your subscription.
If you pay your subscription fees monthly by direct debit, you can cease your subscription at, or to coincide with, the end of your initial minimum term.
If you wish to renew your subscription at the end of the minimum term with no change of plan type, you need do nothing more, your payments under your subscription will continue for the same term and will be collected by direct debit.
If you wish to change your subscription or do not wish to renew, please give us one full calendar months’ notice.
If you renew your annual subscription for a further period using the monthly payment plan, you can end your subscription prior to the annual expiry date by giving us one full calendar months’ notice, the shorter notice period being a no cost loyalty reward upon renewal. You must pay your full subscription rate during your months’ notice. Example: You give notice to end your membership contract on any day after 1 April, but your full calendar months’ notice will not start until 1 May and you will leave on 31 May (your final payment, collected on the last working day of April, will be for the month of May).
You can ask to cancel your membership and give us notice by contacting us on 01462 222600; or by completing the ‘contact us’ form on our website at https://cqcexperts.com We will send or give you confirmation once we have processed your cancellation. This could be by email or letter, depending on how you tell us you want to cancel your membership. Please tell us if you do not receive this. You are responsible for cancelling your direct debit once we have processed your cancellation and any payments relating to notice periods have been taken. We are entitled to keep any subscription fees we receive if you have not cancelled your direct debit instruction with your bank and you have not given us valid notice to cancel your subscription.
MISCELLANEOUS TERMS
We will not be liable for or responsible for any failure to perform any of our obligations under this agreement which are caused by any event that is outside our reasonable control.

We will make reasonable efforts to provide such notice within a reasonable time frame, but we shall not be liable for any delay in providing such notice.
Upon cancellation, the subscriber shall be entitled to a pro-rata refund of any subscription fees paid for the unused portion of the subscription term. The refund will be processed within a reasonable time after the cancellation date.
In the event of cancellation, we shall not be liable for any losses, damages, or inconveniences suffered by the subscriber, including but not limited to any loss of data, loss of profit, or consequential losses.
