Cancellation
Information regarding Cancellation Rights and the Distance Selling Legislation is published by The Government Department for Business, Innovations and Skills (BIS). The Distance Selling (Mail Order, Telephone and Internet Shopping) Fact Sheet can be downloaded from the following link: www.berr.gov.uk/whatwedo/consumers/fact-sheets/page38102.html
The fact sheet was confirmed in September 2009 that businesses do not have the same right to cancel services as customers do – and in particular, Business to Business transactions made live following an order have no automatic right to cancel even if they have been sold by telephone, text message or through the internet.
Direct Selling Regulations (DSR Regulations) apply to both goods and services where the contract or agreement is made live without any face-to-face contact between the supplier and the consumer, certain goods and services are exempt from these regulations. BSI state that the DSR Regulations do not apply to Business to Business Agreements.
The office of Fair Trading publish a guide entitled “A Short Guide for Businesses on Distance Selling” which can be downloaded from: www.oft.gov.uk/shared_oft/business_leaflets/general/oft913.pdf
Of particular relevance is page 8 which states “Different rules apply to services where the consumer agrees that the service starts before the usual cancellation period expires”; These are: “Where you have been supplied the required durable information before the service starts and the consumer agrees to the service starting before the end of the usual cancellation period their cancellation rights will end when the performance of the service starts”. Services offered to you One Base Media are made live almost immediately after your confirmation call.
Mid-term cancellation is at the discretion of One Base Media.
Refunds
Refunds are at the discretion of the management of One Base Media.
