It may be possible to accept late payments but there is no guarantee of this and is only possible if unfilled places for the event remains. There will be no penalty for a late payment but if the maximum has been reached (50 attendees) the late payer will be given the option of attending the next run of the same event, or a same price but different event, or receive a full rebate less financial services fees. If an incorrect payment has been made (EG: Attendee paid for the wrong event) the company will be fair and make its best efforts to accommodate a satisfactory remedy.

• The speech/presentation hereafter (‘the product’).
