Cancellations, Expiration and Refunds

- A higher number of co-attendees allows Heavenlyz to offer individual customers a lower cost to attend.
- At the point of the customer specifying the number of co-attendees and the associated cost during application, the customer accepts that, where the number of co-attendees subsequently decreases for whatever reason, the ultimate cost to the individual customer will increase (costs as specified on the original application form).
