Bookings, Deposits and Course Fees

Tuition can be provisionally booked over the phone or by an exchange of emails.  Booking will not be confirmed until and unless a deposit or full course fee as specified on this website or otherwise requested has been paid and received.  Subject to the following, a payment through this site via PayPal will automatically secure a place on the relevant date or dates.  While every effort will be made by Vivien to immediately remove any fully booked tuition dates from this site, in the event that a deposit is paid via PayPal as payment for tuition which has already been fully booked an alternative date will be offered.  If such alternative is not acceptable a full refund of any deposit or course fee paid will be made immediately.

Subject to the above, any such deposit paid is not refundable except:

1.  If the place can be taken by another student, in which case the refund will be subject to deduction of an administration fee of £50.00 (to cover the cost of readvertising and associated communications), or

2.  At Vivien's discretion in exceptional circumstances.

A deposit or course fee payment may only be transferred as a deposit for other tuition at Vivien' discretion.

In the case of any tuition for which a deposit is payable, any outstanding fees must be paid not less than four weeks before the commencement date for such tuition.

In the event of underbooking or for any other reason, Vivien retains the right to cancel any tuition.  In such case alternative tuition will be offered, if this is not acceptable any moneys paid will be refunded in full with immediate effect.
