7.0 Can you change your membership to another category?
Yes, you can change the category of your membership; this is subject to a new 12 or 3 month commitment term effective from the date your change is effective from. For example; if you are on a 12 month peak you may change to a new 12 month off peak but not a 3 month membership. No refund is available for annual membership if you wish to change to a lower rate category membership: You can not change a 12 month membership to a 3 month membership. Upgrades can be made with immediate effect but for downgrades we require notice by the 15th of the month in order for changes to be effective from the next following calendar month, any notice received on or after the 16th day of a calendar month will mean that the earliest that the downgrade will be effective is from the end of the last day of the following calendar month.
