CANCELLATION / REFUND / TERMS

Cancellation & Refund

Clear terms covering consultation cancellations, service cancellations, refund eligibility, payment treatment and the timing of approved refunds.

01

Cancellation depends on where the service stands.

Cancellation and refund treatment depends on the stage of the service, whether work has started, whether any consultation has taken place, whether materials or design work have already been prepared, and whether the relevant service arrangement has already been completed.

Because design and consultation services can involve time reserved, project preparation and work created specifically for a client, not every cancellation will qualify for a refund. These terms explain how we assess different situations so that the position is clear before a cancellation is requested.

01
GENERAL / CANCELLATION

General Cancellation

If you no longer require a consultation or design service, please contact INSPIRO GRAPHIC as soon as possible. A cancellation request should be made through an official communication channel so that the request can be identified and reviewed against the relevant booking or service arrangement.

Cancellation is assessed according to the actual position of the service at the time the request is received. The fact that a client has not yet received a final file does not necessarily mean that no work has taken place. Preparation, research, consultation time, creative development and other agreed project work may already have been carried out.

Where a service has not started and no non-refundable cost or work has been incurred, a cancellation may generally be accepted without a charge, subject to the specific arrangement agreed for that service.

A NOT STARTED

No consultation, project preparation or agreed creative work has started.

B IN PROGRESS

Some time, preparation, consultation or creative work has already been provided.

C COMPLETED

The agreed consultation or service has been completed or delivered.

02
BOOKING / CONSULTATION

Consultation Cancellation

Consultation bookings may be cancelled by contacting us before the agreed consultation time. Where the cancellation is received early enough for the appointment to be released and no consultation work or preparation has been provided, the consultation fee may be refundable where payment has already been made.

If the consultation has already taken place, the consultation service has been provided and the consultation fee is not refundable merely because the client later decides not to continue with further design work.

If a client does not attend a confirmed consultation without providing reasonable notice, the reserved appointment time may be treated as used. Where preparation or consultation time has been allocated to the booking, a refund may therefore not be available.

SCENARIO REFUND POSITION
Cancelled before consultation and no work started May qualify for a full refund where no agreed non-refundable cost applies.
Consultation already completed Consultation fee is normally not refundable because the service has been provided.
Client does not attend Refund may not be available where the appointment time was reserved and preparation or consultation time was provided.
We need to cancel or cannot reasonably provide the consultation We will contact the client and, where appropriate, offer a new appointment or refund any amount relating to the service not provided.
03
DESIGN / SERVICE

Service Cancellation

For design or branding services, cancellation treatment depends on whether work has begun and how much of the agreed service has already been completed.

A project may involve briefing, research, concept development, visual exploration, layout work, revisions, preparation of production files or other work before a final deliverable is supplied. These activities are considered part of the service even where the client has not yet received the final files.

If the project is cancelled after work has started, any refund will normally be limited to the portion of the payment relating to services that have not been provided, after taking account of work already completed and any agreed non-refundable costs.

01 BOOKED Service arranged
02 PREPARING Brief or project work begins
03 CREATING Creative work in progress
04 DELIVERED Agreed service completed
04
REFUND / ELIGIBILITY

When a Refund May Be Available

A refund may be available where the relevant service has not been provided and the cancellation is received before work has materially started. The exact amount depends on the service arrangement and any work or costs already incurred.

Refund consideration may include the following situations:

01 BOOKING CANCELLED BEFORE SERVICE STARTS

The client cancels before the consultation or agreed service begins and no substantial preparation or creative work has been carried out.

02 SERVICE CANNOT BE PROVIDED

INSPIRO GRAPHIC is unable to provide the agreed service and no alternative arrangement is accepted.

03 UNUSED PART OF A SERVICE

A service has started but part of the agreed work remains entirely unprovided, allowing a refund assessment for the unused portion.

04 OVERPAYMENT

An amount has been paid above the amount properly due under the agreed service arrangement.

05 DUPLICATE PAYMENT

The same service amount has been paid more than once in error and the duplicate amount can be verified.

06 AGREED REFUND

A refund has been specifically agreed in writing as part of the relevant service arrangement.

05
REFUND / EXCLUSIONS

When a Refund Is Normally Not Available

A refund will normally not be available where the service has already been fully provided, where bespoke work has been completed specifically for the client, or where the cancellation relates only to a change of preference after agreed work has been supplied.

CASE STANDARD POSITION
Completed consultation No refund for the consultation already provided.
Completed design service No refund for work that has been fully completed and supplied.
Bespoke creative work substantially completed Normally not refundable because the work has been created specifically for the client.
Client changes their mind after delivery A change of preference alone does not create an automatic right to a refund.
Client supplied incorrect or incomplete information Additional work or losses caused by incorrect client information are not automatically refundable.
Client fails to provide required information Delays or inability to complete work caused by missing client information do not automatically create a refund entitlement.
Missed consultation without reasonable notice A refund may not be available where time was reserved and preparation or service time was already committed.
IMPORTANT A cancellation request does not automatically create a right to a full refund. The amount, if any, is assessed against the service actually provided.
06
WORK / PROGRESS

Where Work Has Already Started

Once a project has entered preparation or creative production, the position changes because time and resources may already have been used specifically for the client.

This can include reviewing a brief, preparing creative direction, researching visual references, creating concepts, producing layouts, preparing artwork, making agreed revisions or preparing final files.

If a project is cancelled at this stage, we may calculate any refund by considering the amount already paid, the work already completed, the proportion of the agreed service already delivered and any reasonable non-refundable costs that were agreed for the project.

01 NO WORK

Cancellation may qualify for a larger refund where the service has not started.

02 PREPARATION

Refund assessment may account for briefing, research and preparation already completed.

03 CREATIVE WORK

Work completed during design development may be deducted from any refundable amount.

04 COMPLETED

A completed service is normally not refundable simply because the client later changes their mind.

07

REFUND / TIMING

Refund Processing & Arrival Time

Once a refund has been approved, we will normally process the refund within 7 business days from the date on which the refund decision has been confirmed.

The time required for the refunded amount to appear in the customer’s account depends on the payment method and the relevant bank or payment service. After the refund has been processed by us, the amount may take a further 3 to 10 business days to appear in the customer’s account.

This means that an approved refund will normally be expected to reach the customer’s account within approximately 10 to 17 business days from refund approval, although external processing delays may occasionally extend this period.

DISCLAIMER / LIABILITY

Liability & Cancellation Exceptions

We will make reasonable efforts to manage cancellations, service changes and refunds fairly and in accordance with the agreed service arrangement. However, we cannot guarantee that every cancellation request will result in a full refund.

Refund decisions may depend on information supplied by the client, the actual stage of the service, work already completed, third-party costs and the specific terms communicated for the relevant service.

We are not responsible for delays caused by circumstances outside our reasonable control, including banking delays, payment-service delays, internet or communication failures, technical interruptions, third-party service failures or events that could not reasonably have been avoided.

Nothing in these terms excludes or limits any liability or statutory right that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited under applicable law.

!
IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER A refund assessment is based on the actual service position and agreed arrangements. It is not based solely on whether final deliverables have been received.

Where work has already been carried out specifically for a client, the value of that work may be taken into account when determining any refundable amount.
