Payment Terms & Conditions

MACP Delegate Terms & Conditions

By booking on an MACP course, lecture or conference ("Course") you are entering into an agreement with the Musculoskeletal Association of Chartered Physiotherapists, PO Box 4940, Slough, Berks, SL1 0JW ("MACP") on the terms and conditions contained in the applicable booking form and as set out below ("Terms"). If you have any questions about these Terms please do not hesitate to contact us.

"Attendee" means the person named in a booking form whose place on a Course has been confirmed by MACP and whose Registration Fee has been received by MACP and who is therefore entitled to attend the stated Course. "Registration Fee" means all monies owing to MACP, the payment of which entitles an individual to attend the relevant Course. "Substitution" means any circumstance where an Attendee who has paid in full is unable to attend a Course on which they have been confirmed and arranges for another individual to attend such Course in their place, in agreement with MACP. "Venue" means the venue for the Course as indicated on the MACP website or as notified to an Attendee by MACP.

By registering for and/or attending a Course, all Attendees agree to be bound by, and comply with, these Terms. It is the Attendee's responsibility to read and understand these Terms.

Booking

  1. The Registration Fee is due at the time of booking. If you are applying for funding the Registration Fee will need to be paid at the time of booking and: (a) should be refunded by your employer or relevant NHS trust; or (b) refunded by MACP once MACP has received the Registration Fee from your employer or NHS trust. All payments must be made in pounds sterling.
  2. All orders for a Course shall be deemed to be an offer by the Attendee to purchase the Course pursuant to these Terms and are subject to acceptance by MACP. A binding contract between Attendee and MACP will exist as soon as MACP issues an email confirming the booking to Attendee.

Price and Payment

  1. Prices do not include travel to and from the course, accommodation or lunch unless otherwise stated.
  2. We ask that payment is made via the MACP website using our Card Solutions provider WorldPay. Please do not email us your debit / credit card details as their security cannot be guaranteed. MACP does not store any payment card details.

Cancellation

  1. MACP will try to avoid cancelling a Course, but MACP reserves the right to cancel any Course at any time and for whatever reason on repayment of the lesser of the Registration Fee and the amount actually paid by or on behalf of Attendees to MACP; and this repayment shall be in full and final settlement of any claims against MACP by Attendees relating to a particular Course. For the avoidance of doubt, MACP shall not be liable for any expenses Attendee incurs as a result of MACP cancelling a Course (including, without limitation, travel expenses and accommodation).
  2. In the event of fire, flood or (without limitation) any other causes that are beyond MACP's reasonable control, MACP reserves the right to change the date, the Venue or cancel any Course, without incurring any liability to Attendee.
  3. If Attendee is no longer able to attend the Course, we strongly recommend that you find a replacement.
  4. If you need to cancel your Course for any reason and cannot find a replacement, Attendee will be charged the following fees. Should an Attendee provide:
    1. more than 6 weeks notice prior to the start date of a particular Course, Attendee will be charged MACP's standard administrative charge of £15;
    2. between 4 and 6 weeks' notice prior to the start date of a particular Course, Attendee will be charged a fee equal to 25% of the Registration Fee;
    3. between 3 and 4 weeks' notice prior to the start date of a particular Course, Attendee will be charged a fee equal to 50% of the Registration Fee;
    4. between 2 and 3 weeks' notice prior to the start date of a particular Course, Attendee will be charged a fee equal to 75% of the Registration Fee; and
    5. less than 2 weeks' notice prior to the start date of a particular Course (or if no notice of cancellation is provided), Attendee will be charged a fee equal to 100% of the Registration Fee.
  5. Should an Attendee need to cancel a place on a Course, please notify MACP administrator, in writing at MACP, PO Box 4940, Slough, Berks, SL1 0JW, or via email to admin@macpweb.org. Attendee should keep a record that such notice was sent. The date from which cancellation fees are calculated is the date on which MACP actually receives such request (excluding weekends and bank holidays).
  6. Any amount refundable after the cancellation charges outlined above have been deducted will be credited to Attendees credit/debit card used to book the Course.
