We recommend that you fully and carefully read any and all documentation and provided by your Surgical Provider as those will set out the terms and conditions which apply to your receipt of medical services from the Surgical Provider and, if there is a problem with the Procedure, it will be the Surgical Provider who is responsible although we will help you with all communications if this becomes necessary. This documentation may be governed by laws which are not UK laws and so, if you have any queries on these terms, we recommend contacting a legal advisor in the country where you are having the Procedure.
In addition, accommodation and services provided other than in the UK may be provided in accordance with local standards which may be different than in the UK. If you anyone travelling suffers injury, illness or death while you are staying at the accommodation or receiving services (including the Procedure provided by the Surgical Provider) that we have booked for you, you should tell us and the supplier involved about it.

For detailed information please visit the Citizens Advice website www.adviceguide.org.uk or call 03454 04 05 06.The Consumer Rights Act 2015 says:you can ask us to repeat or fix a service if it’s not carried out with reasonable care and skill, or get some money back if we can’t fix it.if you haven’t agreed a price beforehand, what you’re asked to pay must be reasonable.if you haven’t agreed a time beforehand, it must be carried out within a reasonable time.See also 7.3.

Price and payment
1. Where to find the price for the Services. The price of our Services and the price for the Procedure (which you will pay to the Surgical Provider) will be the price as told to you over the telephone or in the course of our email exchanges. We use our best efforts to ensure that the price of the Procedure advised to you is correct. However please see 11.3 for what happens if we discover an error in the price of the Procedure you book.
2. What happens if we got the price wrong. It is always possible that, despite our best efforts, some of the Procedures we book on behalf of our clients may be incorrectly priced. We will advise you if we become aware this is the case. If we accept and process your booking where a pricing error is obvious and unmistakeable and could reasonably have been recognised by you as a mispricing, we may end the contract and refund you any sums you have paid.
3. When you must pay and how you must pay. We accept payment by bank transfer. You will be advised of when you need to pay by email. You will have to pay our charges in advance (our “Fee”) with the fee payable to the Surgical Provider (“Surgical Fee”) due when you arrive in Istanbul, the day before your Procedure. Payment of the Surgical Fee will need to be made direct to the Surgical Provider’s patient coordinator at the recovery house in either cash (pounds sterling GBP) or you can pay on the card machine using a credit or debit card. Please be aware that there will be a fee (charged by your bank) incurred if you pay via card.
4. Fees for Repeating the Services. Where we have provided the Services but there is a delay to your Procedure which requires that it be rearranged, there may be circumstances where we are required to repeat aspects of the Services or provide additional services (“Delay Services”) in connection with this rearrangement. These situations include where there is a delay to your Procedure of 12 months of more. In these circumstances, we may have to charge our Fee for the Delay Services. The Fee for Delay Services will be formulated based on the way we calculate your original Fee and will not exceed this amount. For the avoidance of doubt, any Services we provide in connection with additional Procedure(s) which you may opt for during the period of any delay shall not be deemed Delay Services and shall attract their own Fee which we will discuss with you.
Our responsibility for loss or damage suffered by you
1. We are responsible to you for foreseeable loss and damage caused by us. If we fail to comply with these terms, we are responsible for loss or damage you suffer that is a foreseeable result of our breaking this contract or our failing to use reasonable care and skill, but we are not responsible for any loss or damage that is not foreseeable. Loss or damage is foreseeable if either it is obvious that it will happen or if, at the time the contract was made, both we and you knew it might happen, for example, if you discussed it with us during the sales process.
2. As mentioned at conditions 4.2 to 4.4, our Services do not include actually performing the Procedure which is performed by the Surgical Provider which will be subject to your direct contract with them. As such, we are not liable for any loss or damage you suffer in connection with the Procedure itself except where it results from us failing to use reasonable care and skill in relation to the Services which we do provide.
3. We do not exclude or limit in any way our liability to you where it would be unlawful to do so.

3. If a court finds part of this contract illegal, the rest will continue in force. Each of the paragraphs of these terms operates separately. If any court or relevant authority decides that any of them are unlawful, the remaining paragraphs will remain in full force and effect.
4. Even if we delay in enforcing this contract, we can still enforce it later. If we do not insist immediately that you do anything you are required to do under these terms, or if we delay in taking steps against you in respect of your breaking this contract, that will not mean that you do not have to do those things and it will not prevent us taking steps against you at a later date. For example, if you miss a payment and we do not chase you but we continue to provide the Services, we can still require you to make the payment at a later date.
