Welcome to our Members’ Club. This contract is between You and Taylor Vets. Your plan is administered by Access PaySuite for and on behalf of us. This includes passing the fees on to us on a monthly basis.
The following points make up the terms and conditions of the Contract between You and us. These are very important and we recommend that You read through them carefully.
1.1 The Pet Owner will pay the Practice a Monthly Fee on the 15th of each month as stated for the services listed in 2. below.
1.2 Payments will be taken by Direct Debit, through Access PaySuite, who administer the direct debit facility on behalf of the Practice.
1.3 The first payment may be taken up to 2 months after the date of this Agreement due to bank processing time.
2.1 In consideration of the fees outlined in 1.1 above, the Practice agrees to provide the services described in 2.2 below either through the Vet or by a suitably qualified partner, member of staff, deputy or locum.
2.2 The services to be provided are:
2.3 For the purposes of clause 2.2, 12 months will run from the Date of Commencement and each anniversary of that date.
2.4 The fees paid under this Agreement do not cover costs associated with treatment which has been specifically agreed to be excluded between you and your Vet, which would be charged separately.
3.1 You must pay the Monthly Fee. If the Direct Debit cannot be taken, then all benefits under the Plan will cease from the date it was due to be taken.

3.3 You must keep appointments made with your Vet or pay the appropriate missed appointment fee.
3.4 Failed Direct Debit payments cause a significant increase in administration costs for the practice. We therefore reserve the right to charge an administration fee of £10 for each failed payment. This administration charge will be added to your account.
3.5 After a failed Direct Debit payment, Access PaySuite will represent the payment request to your bank after 3-5 working days. If the second payment request also fails, a second administration charge may be added to your account. A third and final payment request will be made to your bank after a further 3-5 working days. If this payment request is unsuccessful your membership will be canceled automatically, and your pet will no longer receive the associated benefits and discounts.
3.6 If your membership is canceled automatically because of failed direct debits, your account will be reviewed and you will be charged the full price of any products and services received during the course of your membership, minus any membership fees received to date.
