We want you to understand the basis upon which you buy products from us.
It is up to you to check that your order is correct. There are facilities to enable you to correct any inputting errors prior to the submission of your order. If however you realize that you have made a mistake then please call us and we will see whether it is possible to intercept the order before it is accepted by us. Please note that our online courses are compatible with 99.9% of MAC based computers. If the course is not compatible with your MAC, or you would like to access the training from an iPad, please contact us for a alternative log in.
We are not obliged to supply goods or services to you until we have confirmed acceptance of your order and this is when the contract is made. This is generally done via email under the heading "Confirmed Order". If you have not supplied us with an email address then we will send a written "Confirmed Order" to you at any other address that you have given to us.
If a course is purchased and confirmed via the "Course Setup Information" e mail and then a request to cancel is received in writing within 14 days of the "Course Setup Information" e mail, a refund will be granted subject to the terms below.
However, the following administration fee will apply to all cancellation request:
Course Cost | Administration Fee |
---|---|
Up to £2,500 | £150 +VAT |
£2,500 - £5,000 | £200 +VAT |
£5,000 - £10,000 | £600 +VAT |
£10,000 or more | 10% +VAT |
N.B. Once a course has been accessed, refunds will not be granted. Please ensure you select the correct course before making a purchase.
All refund or cancellation requests must be sent to compliance@robustit.co.uk. If your course was purchased through a third-party finance company, cancellation requests must also be submitted to the finance provider. Failure to do this may result in additional charges which are levied on Robust IT.
Any delay in payment by the agreed payment date may incur a £25.00 administration fee, also the training course and all the resources may be suspended until any missed payments are brought back up-to-date. If a payment has been declined for any reason we will reattempt the payment within 45 working days. We will inform the payee by either text, email or phone call before payment is attempted with at least two working days' notice being given.
When a payment scheme has been agreed and contracted into and cleared funds covering the first payment has been received by Robust IT then the relevant course(s)or portions of courses will be made available to the purchaser, for the agreed amount of time (e.g. 12 months).
Failure to comply with any agreed payment plan by the purchaser will result in the relevant course(s) or portions of courses being suspended. Robust IT reserves the right to CANCEL any training course, after a total of 3 monthly payments have been missed on the agreement signed by the student.
As a result of non-compliance with the payment plan the purchaser will not be eligible for any refunds on monies paid to date.
All course licenses are 12 months unless otherwise agreed prior to setup in writing. As such all exams on a student's account must be taken before this 12 month license expires. Exam credits will be given only on exam booking. When a package of courses is agreed, the subsequent course must be commenced within 12 months and the licence for that course will also be subject to 12 months from commencement.
Any course package which is over 12 months expiry period must be agreed by Robust IT in writing and upon request the customer must provide the written confirmation.
As the exam vouchers are controlled via a third-party vendor (Microsoft, CompTIA, Cisco etc.), if a course is paused, we are unable to pause the licence on the vouchers. The licence of the voucher(s) will begin when the course is purchased and will end after 12 months, unless otherwise stated. Vouchers will be provided only when the courseware has been completed and three-four of the associated mocks exams have been completed with 85% or above, at least three in certification mode. Vouchers will only be provided to the student when the tutoring team are confident that the student is ready for the exam, as they will have to be re-purchased.
When a package of courses are provided, if having taken one of these courses, (and exam if applicable), it will not be possible to refund this under any circumstances and the full price will then be applicable.
Please Note: As the exams are conducted through either PearsonVue or Certiport, and due to the data protection policies they have in place, we are unable to make any changes to exam bookings. The student will need to contact the relevant exam proctor directly. Where an exam is cancelled the full cost of the exam will be applied to the student.
