Upon receipt of your cancellation request, we will cancel and terminate your account at the end of the then-current membership period, provided that you have returned all outstanding products and paid for any unreturned or damaged products.

7. Invoicing
When you join as a member you will be required to provide FASHION HIRE with accurate, complete and current information of a valid credit or debit card of which you are the lawful owner (as prompted by the Site). By signing up for the Service, you warrant to us that this information as provided to us is accurate and complete and you specifically authorise FASHION HIRE or its agent to bill your credit or debit card the applicable membership fees, per-item purchase fees, shipping charges, any and all applicable taxes, and any other charges you may incur in connection with your use of the Service. The applicable membership fees will be charged to your credit or debit card on the date your membership is created and each month thereafter, on the calendar day corresponding to the commencement of your membership. If your membership begins on the 29th, 30th or 31st of any month, FASHION HIRE may charge your credit or debit card on the 28th day of each subsequent month. Other fees will be charged to your credit or debit card as you incur them. Fashionhire reserve the right to cancel an order at any time at our own discretion. If this happens the debit or credit card will be refunded in full. Fashionhire also reserve the right to cancel an order if they are unhappy with any identification provided.

FASHION HIRE reserves the right to take all steps necessary to collect amounts due from you, including but not limited to using third party collection agencies to collect such sums (together with the costs of us taking such action). Fashion Hire reserves the right to correct any errors or mistakes that it makes even if it has already requested or received payment.
By applying to become a member of the Site and receive the Service, you expressly authorise us (either acting on our own or through third party agents) to carry out such credit checks as we deem necessary in order to determine whether your credit or debit card has sufficient credit to accept any applicable fees or other costs. In the event that your card does not have sufficient credit, we reserve the right to, at our sole discretion, reject your membership application or, as the case may be, terminate your membership. You further expressly authorise us, where we feel necessary, to transmit or to obtain information (including any updated information) about you to or from third parties from time to time (including but not limited to your credit or debit card number or credit reports) to authenticate your identity, to validate your credit or debit card, to obtain an initial credit or debit card authorisation and/or to authorise individual purchase transactions, so far as is necessary for those purposes.
You are solely responsible for any and all fees charged to your credit or debit card by the issuer, bank, or financial institution including, but not limited to, membership, overdraft, insufficient funds, and over the credit limit fees. You will not hold us responsible for banking charges incurred due to payments failing on your credit or debit card. You agree to notify us about any billing problems or discrepancies within 60 days after they first appear on your account statement. If you do not bring them to our attention within 60 days, you agree that you waive your right to dispute such problems or discrepancies.
