Conditions of Membership

 1. General

1.1 All memberships are subject to these Terms & Conditions unless otherwise agreed in writing.
1.2 Get Golfing reserves the right to exercise reasonable discretion in all matters relating to membership.
1.3 Membership continues until cancelled in writing and acknowledged by either party, subject to these Terms.

 2. Membership Duration & Renewal

2.1 Initial Term – Membership runs for a fixed period of 12 months from the first day of the month following your join date.
2.2 Cooling-Off Period – You have 14 days from joining to cancel without penalty. Get Golfing offers an additional goodwill day (15 days total). If you have played golf within this period, standard green fees will be deducted from any refund.
2.3 After Initial Term – Once your first year ends, membership automatically continues on a rolling monthly basis, cancellable with 1 calendar month’s written notice.
2.4 Renewal notices will be sent by email at least 30 days before renewal. Failure to notify us of cancellation will result in automatic renewal at the prevailing subscription rate. 

3. Payments 

3.1 Subscriptions are payable monthly by Direct Debit.
3.2 Bank details must be supplied at the time of joining.
3.3 Direct Debits are collected in the first week of each month.
3.4 Paying by instalments does not make membership usage proportionate to months paid — you are committing to the full contract term.
3.5 Deposit – On joining, a 25% deposit is payable, with the remainder spread over the following 11 months. If joining mid-month, a pro-rata amount for that month will be added to the deposit.
3.6 Non-Payment – If a Direct Debit fails, membership will be suspended immediately. If payment is not received within 28 days, membership will be cancelled and all remaining instalments for the year become due.
