Summary of your key rights

The Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013 say that you have a 14-day right to change your mind and get a full refund on your digital content. You do not have this right to cancel the digital content once the digital content has been supplied to you, provided you have been told this and have agreed to waive your cancellation right. By purchasing a Membership, you consent to receiving access to the Membership and its applicable inclusions immediately at the time of purchase, and you acknowledge that this means you lose your right to the 14-day cancellation period under the Consumer Rights Act 2015.

The Consumer Rights Act 2015 says digital content must be as described, fit for purpose and of satisfactory quality. If your digital content is faulty, you’re entitled to a repair or a replacement.

If the fault can’t be fixed, or if it hasn’t been fixed within a reasonable time and without significant inconvenience, you can get some, or all of your money back. If you can show the fault has damaged your device and we haven’t used reasonable care and skill, you may be entitled to a repair or compensation.

This is a summary of some of your key rights. For detailed information from Citizens Advice, please visit www.citizensadvice.org.uk or call 03454 04 05 06. This information is not intended to replace the terms and conditions below, which you should read carefully.
