REFUND POLICY
The AECB is a membership organisation and all members pay an appropriate membership fee to join the organisation, which can be renewed annually following receipt of a renewal invitation. The level of fee paid depends on the level of membership required (refer to www.aecb.net/join.php for full details).The initial fee covers membership for a year from receipt of payment. The benefits of membership are clearly set out on the webset at www.aecb.net/benefits.php We regret we are unable to offer refunds if membership is cancelled, for whatever reason, before the renewal date unless we receive notice of cancellation within 14 days of taking out membership. If, within 14 days of receipt of the subscription monies, you decide membership is not for you, we will refund your fee paid less a £5 admin charge to cover materials sent to you.
The AECB is a non profit making limited company and the liability of members is limited to £1.
