- Our product options
- “Moveit Loseit” – 12 week initial programme: available to individuals, payable in full and in advance and set out in more detail on our Website; and
- “My Journey”: an optional monthly subscription service which will follow the 12 week “Moveit Loseit” programme. Shortly before your Moveit Loseit programme is coming to an end you will receive an email reminder inviting you to subscribe to the My Journey programme with steps on how to continue your journey with us. Should you wish to begin our monthly subscription service you will be required to follow the instructions in the email inviting you to begin My Journey. The applicable monthly fee for My Journey is also displayed on our Website and is payable in advance on the [LAST DAY/ 1ST OF EACH MONTH] (This is your “My Journey Monthly Payment Date”). If at any stage you no longer wish to participate in the My Journey programme, you must give us at least 14 clear days’ notice in writing before your My Journey Monthly Payment Date to avoid incurring a monthly fee for the following month. My Journey has no minimum contract commitment and you may give notice in writing to terminate it any time. If you terminate part-way through a particular month you are responsible for the entire monthly fee for that particular month.
- You are not permitted to begin the My Journey monthly subscription service until you have successfully completed the initial 12 week “Moveit Loseit” programme.
- Your order
- Once you have registered to become a member on our Website you will be required to create an account login which will include a requirement to provide us with some basic details (including payment details) and to set up a password for your account.
- After you have successfully created an account with us and your payment has been processed we will send you an order confirmation email to the email address you have provided to confirm the Product(s) you have ordered, at which point a contract will come into existence between you and us. You will receive a unique client ID which will help us to identify you and provide our services to you.
- If we are unable to accept your order, we will inform you of this and will not charge you for the Product(s). This might be for a number of reasons such as if we have identified an error in the price or description of a relevant Product.
- Products: Cancellation
- For most products bought online you have a legal right to change your mind within 14 days and receive a refund. This will not apply if you have already accessed, started downloading or streaming any of our Products.
- A contract for products, services or digital content is completed when the Product is delivered, made available, downloaded or streamed and paid for. If you want to end a contract before it is completed, please contact us in writing using the email address provided at clause 2. If a contract has been completed, you will remain responsible for our fees which will be calculated as follows: -
- “Moveit Loseit” 12 week programme: you will remain responsible for the entire initial cost of the 12 week programme and are not entitled to any full or partial refund in the event that you terminate the contract after the Product has either been made available to you or downloaded or streamed and paid for. During this 12 week programme you will receive email notifications from Michael Marshall and will be assigned tailored fitness plans based upon (and subject to you providing) relevant personal information.
- “My Journey”: If you do not wish to participate in My Journey, you must give us at least 14 days’ notice in writing before your 12 week “Moveit Loseit” programme is due to end to avoid incurring a monthly fee. My Journey has no minimum contract commitment and you may give notice in writing terminate it any time. However, if you terminate part-way through a particular month you are responsible for the entire monthly fee for that particular month as set out above at clause 2. My Journey relies more upon your own self-motivation and commitment to help ensure that your programme is sustainable in the longer term and therefore although you will have access to the same resources as the Moveit Loseit programme (including updated content such as new recipes and exercise videos) you will generally have reduced direct contact with Michael Marshall Fitness.
- If you want to end your contract with us, please let us know by doing one of the following:
- Email us at enquiries@michaelmarshallfitness.com Please provide your name, home address, details of the Product you ordered and, where available, your phone number and email address telling us of the reason you wish to cancel.
