Event Terms and Conditions

Section 1 – Payment and Fees

1.1    QSN event bookings are managed by the AUA on behalf of QSN.

1.2     Once you have completed your booking we will issue you with an invoice for the total fees payable. Your payment is due within 30 days of the invoice date, or immediately if the booking is made within 30 days of the event. If your payment is not received within 30 days of the invoice date, or immediately if the booking is made within 30 days of the event, QSN reserves the right to cancel your booking.

1.3     Your invoice is only deemed to have been settled when the full amount has been paid and received by QSN in cleared funds. For bank transfers, it can take up to ten working days for funds to be cleared and with QSN.

1.4     All late bookings, confirmed within 15 days of the start date of the event, will be subject to the normal event terms and conditions.
