Booking Cancellations (Section 1)

In the event of a cancellation by Border Game Angling, we will attempt to re – arrange the session, or trip, to the best of our ability. However, this must be done in a way that affords both parties the opportunity of a fair outcome. Therefore the following applies:

  • In the unlikely event that Border Game Angling would need to cancel a booking indefinitely, and therefore could not provide the service required, a full refund of any fees already paid to Border Game Angling would be made available. No additional compensation over and above this amount will be paid.
  • If Border Game Angling were to cancel a booking due to impossible conditions e.g. flooding or severe storms etc. any deposit that has already been received for the cancelled date/s would be carried forward to an alternative date/s that would be mutually agreed upon by the customer and Border Game Angling.

Booking Cancellations (Section 2)

  • Once dates have been reserved by the customer and confirmed by Border Game Angling, no further bookings from additional customers will be taken for that period. As a result of this, it is inevitable that other customers will be turned away for the period in question Therefore if a cancellation is made by a customer less than 14 days prior to their booking, the deposit for that booking will be forfeit to cover loss of earnings by Border Game Angling.

It is also recognised by Border Game Angling that in extreme cases, due to unforeseen circumstances, short notice cancellations may be a requirement of the customer; therefore where this can be proven, we understand that a proviso should also be available for this eventuality. In these extreme cases the following will apply:

  • Where a bereavement in the family has occurred, or an accident, or serious health issue involving the customer, preventing them from attending their session/s, an alternative date/s will be offered to the customer, providing the customer has informed Border Game Angling of the situation no less than 24 hours before the arranged booking. After this time the deposit will be forfeit and an alternative date/s will not be arranged.
  • In the event of a customer not attending their booking on the arranged date/s and has not informed Border Game Angling that they will not be attending, their deposit will be forfeit and an alternative date/s will not be arranged.
  • If a customer does not attend their booking at the agreed time and has not contacted Border Game Angling to make us aware of the situation, either via email, mobile phone, or SMS, their booking will be deemed void 1 hour after the arranged meeting time. After this time the deposit will be forfeit and an alternative date/s will not be arranged.
