FREEZE SCHEME FOR GETACTIVE ABC MEMBERS This scheme applies to GETACTIVE ABC direct debit members. Under this scheme direct debit members are permitted to freeze their membership for a period of two months (maximum) in each 12 month period, and these months do not need to be consecutive months - the charge for each month where the membership is frozen will be £5.00 therefore the direct debit payment for each frozen month will be £5.00 (or this can be paid in cash at some centres). Members must “freeze” for a complete month and cannot “freeze” for part of a month. The member cannot use the centres during the month which is frozen, except where they pay the appropriate “pay as you go” charge for each activity at reception. The advantage of the scheme is that frozen months, when limited to a maximum of 2 per 12 month period, will not be deemed to have “cancelled” or “broken” the membership - therefore Loyalty Benefits will still apply to this membership. GETACTIVE ABC Members can execute the freeze procedure by any of the following options; a.

Completing a “Freeze Membership Form” - available at the centre where their membership is administered

Making a phone call to appropriate Centre Reception stating the members name and membership number, or c.
