Payments

Membership is on a monthly basis.  Currently, if you miss (for any reason) all the sessions in a month, then the subscription is rebated and any credit carried forward, though refunds are not made.  (These concessions are subject to review.)

We pay a month in advance (this helps keep the club solvent!).  When you join, you'll need to "catch up".  For example, if you join at the beginning of April, you'd need to pay for both April and May before the end of April; then one monthly subscription from then on.  (If you join mid-month we'll recalculate to ensure you don't have to pay for your free sessions!)

The current monthly subscription (June 2023, under regular review) is £22, but check if you are eligible for any of the discounts we offer.

To pay subscriptions by bank transfer:

• Use "business" account "WALTHAMSTOW WHACKERS BADMINTON", number 75734257 at NatWest with sort code 602223 (= 60-22-23). Use copy & paste to avoid errors!
• Please quote your surname and initial (in that order) as payment reference (important!)
• You're welcome to send a test payment of £1 to confirm the bank details, but this may not show up on your account with us for a week.
• Please make sure all payment due arrives before the end of preceding month.  Or you may get a token fine!
• It's easier if payments are spread over the month.  So why not pick the day-number of your birthday?  (Unless it's very close to the month-end!)

Cash and cheques are not normally accepted, but you're free to pay into the account using the details above.

• Make sure you let us know if you pay-in cash, as there is no 'payment reference' for cash!
• Note the bank account is normally checked overnight on Mondays, so payments made on Tuesdays won't be picked up until the next week.
