CONDITIONS OF MEMBERSHIP

1.
I understand that all new memberships of at least three (3) months duration have a cooling off period of three (3) days only, from the date of signing the membership agreement, irrelevant of the start date for the membership. The cooling off period for memberships of less than 3 months duration is 48 hours from the date of signing. Requests for termination of membership and refund of any monies paid during this time must be presented to the general manager in writing. Any refunds granted within this time will be a total of monies paid less service and administrations costs. Following this period there will be no refunds granted on all monies paid, including all monies paid in advance and any membership balance must be honoured. There is no cooling of period on membership renewals.

2.
I understand that memberships are entitled to “On Hold” rights each calendar year. I understand all membership freezes (On-Holds) will be charged an “On Hold Fee” of $5/week and are due and payable each fortnight on the regular recurring direct debit dates. I understand each membership is entitled to 2 membership “On-Hold” periods each calendar year and the accumulative maximum “On-Hold” time for each membership is 3 months each calendar year.  I understand there is a minimum period of 7 days per On-Hold request and all On-Hold forms must be received at least 72 hours prior to the memberships direct debit date in order to come into effect for that direct debit period. I understand that membership on-hold time will not be granted until a completed membership on hold form has been received by Club Coops. It is the member’s responsibility to ensure the completed membership on hold form has been received by Club Coops. I understand a membership cannot be “On-Hold” and in notice period for cancellation at the same time.  I understand that all applications for a membership on-hold must have a beginning and end date. I understand that on hold time will commence from the date of application, or a future date listed on the application form and cannot be backdated for any reason. I understand that on hold time will not be granted on any membership that has fallen into arrears. I understand that minimum and maximum on hold periods are set for each membership and any request for changes to terms and conditions must be made in writing to management and are subject to approval by management. I understand that while membership is ‘‘on hold’’, the Minimum Term of the membership will be extended for the same time as the ‘‘on hold’’ period.



3.
I understand that all memberships are an ongoing, minimum term contract, and membership and payments will continue beyond minimum term until a completed Departure Application Form to cancel the membership has been received by Club Coops. You have the right to cancel your membership at any time however cancellation for reasons other than during the cooling off period or due to permanent sickness or permanent physical incapacity you will be required to pay the balance of your initial commitment. I understand that thirty (30) days notice is required to process a cancellation, and any debit fees due during this 30 day period will be collected. I understand that any minimum term balance must be paid in full before a cancellation will be processed. I understand that it is my responsibility to confirm cancellation request has been received by Club Coops. I understand management may vary any details of the direct debit agreement at any time by giving me 30 days notice in writing. A minimum term membership can be cancelled during the minimum term for a fee of $200 plus 30 days notice. The early exit fee of $200 must be received prior to the 30 days notice period beginning. A minimum term membership can also be cancelled in the case of a medical certificate due to permanent sickness or permanent physical incapacity for $75. I understand that membership cannot be ‘on hold’ during the 30 day notice period for cancellation.

4.
I understand that I may be refused entry to the centre should payment of membership fees fall into arrears, until such time as arrears have been received. I understand that additional charges may apply for late fees. I understand that prolonged non-payment of fees will result in cancellation of membership and possible legal action to recover any outstanding balance.
