AUTOMATIC RENEWAL

Please note if your membership included the benefit of a free period then we will stop making collections during that free period and recommence making collections on the renewal date.

11. You may prevent the Automatic Renewal at any time by giving notice to our Helpline (you should give us not less than 30 days notice). When the final minimum period payment has been taken you should also cancel your Direct Debit mandate directly with your bank.
