Consumer Protection (Distance Selling) Regulations 2000
applicable in the United Kingdom and European Union

‘Distance Selling’ means all sales of goods and the provision of services other than face to face including transactions using the Internet, by mail order, telephone fax and advertising in magazines, newspapers and periodicals.

The ‘society’ means the ‘Berkshire Family History Society’ throughout.

A customer has the right to cancel an order for goods within 7 working days of receipt of the goods. This 7 day ‘cooling off’ period excludes Saturdays, Sundays and Bank Holidays.

Notification of intention to cancel must be received by the Society, in writing, within the cooling off period. A telephone call will not be acceptable.

‘Writing’ includes a letter sent to the society at:

BerksFHS Bookshop, Yeomanry House, 131 Castle Hill, Reading, Berkshire  RG1 7TJ

or an email sent to Bookshop@BerksFHS.org.uk

On receipt of due notice, within the cooling off period, the society will refund the retail sale price of the goods if, but only if, they are returned in a re-saleable condition. The goods are to be cared for by the customer at the customer’s risk.

The cost of returning the goods must be paid for by the customer and will not be paid for by the society. The society will make payment of a refund within 30 days of receipt of the returned goods in a re-saleable condition. Refunds will be made by sterling cheque.

No refunds will be made in respect of CD’s where the customer has broken open the seal or wrapper. If the society has been asked to supply a service, for a fee, then once the request and fee for the service has been received by the society, it will start to process the request and no ‘cooling-off period shall apply, with the consequence that no refund of fee shall be made even if the customer wishes to stop the service.

The law of England shall apply to this contract.
