COVID-19 restrictions

The below terms and conditions on this page apply for booked services such as workshops, conferences, events, and coaching visits. However, in the event of a postponement being necessary due to COVID-19 health recommendations and social distancing requirements, no cancellation fee will be charged. In the case of your event being postponed the following options are available to you:

1) Postpone to a new date. If flights or accommodation has been booked, these will be transferred to new dates. You may be required to pay an airline transfer fee or an accommodation cancellation fee if incurred - however, currently these are also frequently being waived by venues and airlines.

2) Receive a credit note. You may choose to transfer the services booked in your invoice to a credit note for use on other products and services such as books, kits, workbooks, and self paced or live online training. This credit note will be valid for 12 months.

Process of engagement of services / confirmation of booking

A booking is confirmed upon acceptance of a quote and mutual agreement of the booked date. The booked date needs to be confirmed in writing by both parties. You will be sent a booking form with your invoice, in which you will be asked to confirm the date and return the form electronically. This booking form is essential to confirm booked date - please note, payment of invoice is not a booking confirmation if it is not followed by or preceded by a completed, sent and acknowledged booking form. If you have not been sent a confirmation email within 2 weeks prior to your booked date, it  is your responsibility to confirm the date you are expecting your event to be on with Phoenix Support head office by phoning 1300 361 243 (no later than 1 week of your booked date).

Phoenix Support will proceed with work upon payment of the invoice and completed booking form unless otherwise arranged.

The client shall notify Phoenix Support in writing of any objections (if any) to these terms and conditions within ten (10) days of receipt of your invoice, otherwise the agreement shall be deemed proper and acceptable to you, the client. 

In the case of any objections regarding any matter of services provided by Phoenix Support, notify the director in writing within five (5) working days otherwise the services shall be deemed proper and acceptable to you, the client.

Additional information for service invoices (in-service professional development, coaching & mentoring, etc)

For booked dates to be confirmed, unless otherwise arranged, the account is due for payment within thirty (30) days of invoice. All payments are non-refundable. However, we understand that there are unavoidable and unexpected circumstances that may impact on your booking. In the event of a booked service requiring a different date, please contact Phoenix Support as soon as possible.

Change of dates
Should you wish to change dates up to one (1) month prior to your Professional Development booking, an additional administration fee may be incurred. This fee is $120 for booking postponed two (2) – four (4) weeks from booked date, and $240 for booking postponed Zero (0) – two (2) weeks from booked date.   

If your booking requires postponing, Phoenix Support do not guarantee another possible date with the facilitator of your choice, but may assign a different facilitator to deliver your service.

If it is not at all possible to postpone the booked date, Phoenix Support will provide a credit note valid until the end of the same financial year that may be used on products or services. 

Additional information for service requiring travel

Initial quotes and Invoices may exclude travel expenses. To ensure you pay only the travel costs incurred, we invoice you after the event for travel cost reimbursement. Travel costs may include but are not limited to: Flights, accommodation, car hire and fuel.

In the event of travel not being possible on the same day of service delivery, an hourly travel fee may be charged. e.g. In the instance of PD for one (1) day but travel needs to be undertaken on a second (2nd) or third (3rd) day, instead of the same day, a travel fee of up to $88 per hour may be incurred.

In the event of postponing a booked date when travel for service on that date has already been paid for by Phoenix Support, you will be required to pay any transfer or cancellation fees incurred by Phoenix Support from the airline, accommodation, or car hire company. 

Additional information for product invoices (kits, resources, books, etc)

Please choose carefully as resources and products will not be refunded. In the event of a faulty or damaged product,  please notify us via email within five (5) days of receiving the product and include photos where possible showing the damage so that we can assess and issue a replacement.  To receive a replacement, please return your product in a padded PostPak via registered post to Phoenix Support PO BOX 2112 Wellington Point QLD 4160. Please enclose a self-addressed, return padded PostPak with pre-paid express or registered post via Australia Post.

Additional information for Event and Ticket (physical and online event) invoices

Tickets invoices are non-refundable but are transferable once paid. i.e. a ticket invoice under one person’s name, once paid, can be transferred to another person’s name.

Credit notes will be issued for paid ticket invoices if written notice is given of non-attendance at event at least four (4) weeks prior to event. The credit note will be valid for any event of equal value or less within the same financial year.
