Booking Process & Payment
– We reserve the right to refuse publication if payment is not received according to the booking’s terms and conditions.
– Once an advertising package has been confirmed, either by an advertiser signing and returning the booking confirmation form, signing online, by telephone call, email confirmation or letter, no refunds can be given if the advertiser subsequently decides that they wish to cancel the advertising booking.
– For ‘Regular advertisers’ the first advert must be paid for at the time of booking, in advance of going to print. Advertisers who receive the 3 or 6 edition rate must pay for their advert by standing order, unless otherwise agreed and are advised that their advert will be printed in the magazine until such time as they notify Lymington Directory that they wish to cancel. Standing orders must be set up so that payment is received by Lymington Directory by the date specified on the order booking form/email confirmation i.e. prior to printing.
– It is the Advertiser’s responsibility to inform Lymington Directory if they wish to stop running their ad. Notification of cancellation must be received 10 days prior to the copy deadline date of the forthcoming issue. If the advertiser cancels their standing order without telling Lymington Directory Ltd and the advert is published, the balance of the booking period will be immediately paid in full.
– If the booking is made on the 6 edition rate but the advertiser does not return the booking form (or sign online) within 14 days after the advert has been printed, the publisher reserves the right to invoice at the 1 edition rate until the signed booking form and standing order mandate is received.
– All non- regular advertiser bookings are invoiced in advance unless agreed otherwise and are payable 14 days of the date of the invoice or by the date stated on the order confirmation form, whichever is sooner. In no circumstances shall the advertiser be entitled to make any deduction or withhold any payment for any reason at all.
– Without prejudice to any other rights of Lymington Directory Ltd, if the advertiser fails to pay the invoice price by the due date the advertiser shall not be allowed any discount given in that invoice or in any other way agreed and shall pay interest on any overdue amount from the date of which payment was due to the date of actual payment (either before or after judgement) on a daily basis at a base rate from the time quoted by National Westminster Bank plc and shall reimburse Lymington Directory all costs and expenses (including legal costs) incurred in the collection of any overdue amount.
