Under this scheme directdebit members are permitted to freeze theirmembership for a period of two months(maximum) in each 12 month period, andthese months do not need to be consecutivemonths - the charge for each month wherethe membership is frozen will be £5.00 -therefore the direct debit payment for eachfrozen month will be £5.00 (or this can bepaid in cash at some centres). Members must“freeze” for a complete month and cannot“freeze” for part of a month. The membercannot use the centres during the monthwhich is frozen, except where they pay theappropriate “pay as you go” charge for eachactivity at reception. The advantage of thescheme is that frozen months, when limitedto a maximum of 2 per 12 month period,will not be deemed to have “cancelled” or“broken” the membership - therefore LoyaltyBenefits will still apply to this membership.
