If a customer breaches these conditions we reserve the right to terminate this agreement subject to section 7.

3. Fees/Times
3.1 The monthly/annual subscription rate for your Be Strong membership may change from time to time by any amounts we consider reasonable.

We will write to you at least 14 days before the change starts, in line with the Direct Debit Scheme Guarantee.

4. Administration
4.1 All administration of your membership will be conducted electronically.

5. Cooling-off period
5.1 The cooling-off period set out in this section will only apply to you if you are a new customer (in other words, a customer who has never previously been registered as a monthly or annual payment scheme customer with us). After you have joined the scheme, you may cancel your monthly payment scheme for any reason within 7 days. This is called a ‘cooling-off period’. If you choose to cancel within these 7 days, we will cancel your commitment to the remaining one full month’s subscription.  If a full month payment has been made, we will send you a refund via BACS transfer.

5.2 To cancel your monthly payment scheme within the cooling-off period, you need to email Be Strong at info@mybestrong.com

(a) By the proprietor:

  • By notice via email if any payment owing to Be Strong by the customer remains unpaid 7 days after the due date of payment.
  • By notice via email if the proprietor believes that the customer is not a suitable individual for continued Be Strong facility use. There is no obligation on the proprietor to give a reason for such a decision.

(b) By the customer:
• The customer may terminate the monthly payment scheme at any time via their online account. No refunds are available to either monthly or annual payment scheme customers.

6.2 If we end your payment scheme under section 7.1, we will not refund any subscriptions that you have paid for the months you were a monthly payment user or for which you have made a commitment to continue as a annual payment user.

7. If your payments fail
7.1 This details what will happen if you have not paid your monthly payment subscription for one of the reasons outlined below:

(i) The direct debit details you gave us were wrong. We will ask you to make the payment by cash, debit or credit card and for you to give us your correct details. We will try once more, after which we may cancel your payment scheme straight away should the payment still fail.
(ii) There are not enough funds in your bank account. In these circumstances, we will contact you to make the payment by cash, debit or credit card. If, after 14 days of contacting you, you still owe us the payment, we may cancel your payment scheme straight away.
(iii) You have cancelled your direct debit with your bank without giving us the notice we need as set out in section 7. If you cancel your direct debit at the bank your account with us will incur arrears charges for outstanding payments under the terms of your payment scheme. In these circumstances, we will contact you to make the payment by cash, debit or credit card.

If subscriptions remain unpaid you may be contacted by Be Strong for any payments you owe, you will be responsible for any associated court costs or other costs.
