a. accommodation, vehicle rental services, catering or services related to leisure activities, if the contract provides for a specific date or period of performance;

 

50. Subject as stated in these Terms and Conditions, you can cancel this contract within 12 hours without giving any reason.

 

51. In a contract for the supply of services, the cancellation period will expire 12 hours from the time the Contract was entered into. In a contract for the supply of services over time (ie Moving of Beverages), the right to cancel will be 7 days after the first supply of service.

 

52. To exercise the right to cancel, you must inform us of your decision to cancel this Contract by a clear statement setting out your decision (eg a letter sent by post, fax or email). You can use the attached model cancellation form, but it is not obligatory. In any event, you must be able to show clear evidence of when the cancellation was made, so you may decide to use the model cancellation form.

 

53. You can also electronically fill in and submit the model cancellation form or any other clear statement of the Customer's decision to cancel the Contract on our website www.faremovals.com . If you use this option, we will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a cancellation in a Durable Medium (eg by email) without delay.

 

54. To meet the cancellation deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right to cancel before the cancellation period has expired.

 

Commencement of Services in the cancellation period

 

55. We must not begin the supply of a service (being part of the Services) before the end of the cancellation period unless you have made an express request for the service.

 

Effects of cancellation in the cancellation period

 

56. Except as set out below, if you cancel this Contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).

 

Payment for Services commenced during the cancellation period

 

57. Where a service is supplied (being part of the Service) before the end of the cancellation period in response to your express request to do so, you must pay an amount for the supply of the service for the period for which it is supplied, ending with the time when we are informed of your decision to cancel the Contract. This amount is in proportion to what has been supplied in comparison with the full coverage of the Contract. This amount is to be calculated on the basis of the total price agreed in the Contract or, if the total price were to be excessive, on the basis of the market value of the service that has been supplied, calculated by comparing prices for equivalent services supplied by other traders. You will bear no cost for supply of that service, in full or in part, in this cancellation period if that service is not supplied in response to such a request.

 

58. For the purposes of these Cancellation Rights, these words have the following meanings:

 

a. distance contract means a contract concluded between a trader and a consumer under an organised distance sales or service-provision scheme without the simultaneous physical presence of the trader and the consumer, with the exclusive use of one or more means of distance communication up to and including the time at which the contract is concluded;
