PURCHASES AND PAYMENT
PAYMENT SUMMARY: Monthly memberships are paid in advance monthly, on the calendar date which the membership became activated, for the following month. Regular monthly dues apply thereafter. Monthly membership payments shall be made one month after the previous payment each month, on a month-by-month basis, via automatic debited payment (credit card, debit card, or other payment method). Additional terms regarding the automatic debited payments are outlined below. In the event of a declined credit card/debit card, the member’s account will be given three days until suspension, pending the member updating their payment information and their membership dues paid in full.
AUTO DEBIT
AUTO-DEBIT: By enrolling in an auto-debit contract, you authorize Siwicki Fitness to, on a recurring basis, automatically charge the debit or credit card account you specified, for the monthly payments on your unlimited auto-debit plan associated with your account, on the billing due date. You understand and acknowledge that (1) Siwicki Fitness will initiate transfers/charges pursuant to this authorization not to exceed the amount shown on your Membership Agreement and/or in connection with cancellation fees per the cancellation policy. Siwicki Fitness may discontinue processing of recurring charges if it is unable to secure funds from your debit/card due to, but not limited to, insufficient or uncollected funds in the account or insufficient or inaccurate information provided; (2) the Siwicki Fitness booking system allows for booking through the week regardless of the billing date of your contract; (3) if you, the member, are booked in a class past the subsequent billing date, and your debit/credit card fails to bill properly, you will be removed from any classes past the subsequent billing date and notified via electronic mail; (4) if members are removed from class due to the circumstances as described, it may not be possible to place the members back into the class for which they were originally booked; (5) it is your responsibility to keep a current card on file with accurate billing information. Siwicki Fitness cannot be held responsible for errors in processing due to expired or inaccurate information.
GENERAL PROGRAMS
Siwicki Fitness offers a variety of general programs for its members, providing options for upfront payments or payment plans for the entirety of the program. Members can choose to pay the full cost of the program at the outset or opt for a structured payment plan spread across the duration of the program. Failure to make timely payments may result in further actions, including the involvement of a debt collection agency.
NO REFUNDS: By agreeing to make the initial payment, whether it is an upfront cost or the first installment of a payment plan, you acknowledge and agree that there will be no refunds provided. This policy applies regardless of the reason for discontinuing the program. You are committing to the full cost of the program and are obligated to complete all payments as agreed.
