Terms and Conditions
UK Bungee Club is the supplier of all experiences that appear on this website. When you purchase an experience or book with a voucher from the UK Bungee Club or with a voucher provided by an external provider you become legally bound by these terms and conditions. Please do not proceed and book or purchase an experience or complete a booking until you have read, understood and accepted these terms and conditions.
Prices
The prices displayed on our website are correct to the best of our knowledge and maintained on a daily basis. Prices of experiences may vary throughout the year. In the event of an order being placed against an accidental incorrect price, we will endeavour to inform the purchaser of the error within 7 days of the purchase being made. We will allow the purchaser to either cancel the booking or choose to pay the additional difference in price. Vouchers and purchases from external voucher providers may vary, the UK Bungee Club shall not be held responsible for purchases or the prices displayed on external websites and other gift experience companies.
Weather
Nearly all of our experiences are weather dependent. Please be aware that the weather can be unpredictable and events do have to be cancelled because of this, high winds and thunderstorms are our main concerns. Cancelling an event can be a huge inconvenience for both participants and us here at the UK Bungee Club, however the safety of our jumpers and crew is paramount and we would appreciate your understanding with this. If bad weather affects a booking it will be rescheduled by the UK Bungee Club at no extra charge to you for a later date. No refunds will be given. There can be no guarantee that a particular date will not be withdrawn due to adverse weather conditions. As above we strongly recommend that you contact us before you depart for your experience, however please be aware weather conditions on the day can change quickly and events can still be cancelled after the event has started should the experience be deemed unsafe. Non attendance on a day that operates in spite of bad weather forecasts will see you lose your experience. In the event of cancellation, UK Bungee Club will not be held liable for the cost of lost insurance premiums, travel expenses, pre-booked accommodation costs or any other costs incurred. Please make sure you have provided us with the mobile phone number you will have with you on the day. If your bungee jump is cancelled due to inclement weather we will endeavour to reschedule it as soon as possible.
Availability
All experiences are offered subject to the availability of dates, cranes, facilities and crew. Bookings should be made as far in advance as possible especially during peak times. We suggest if you plan to book an experience or purchase a voucher for a date at short notice, you call us to ensure there is still availability before completing the transaction. You should not make any travel or accommodation arrangements in connection with the course or experience until you have received your booking confirmation with a date and time on it from the UK Bungee Club. Where specific elements of the experience such as cranes are not available due to mechanical breakdown, we reserve the right to make reasonable substitutions on the day. If this is not possible we reserve the right to cancel the experience at short notice.
Duration and Time of Jump
The time of your experience is a guide time only, there is no guarantee that you will complete your experience at the exact time given on your booking confirmation however we try to stick to these times a closely as possible. Please allow plenty of time on site and we recommend a minimum of 3hours. Where the duration of an experience is mentioned on our website and marketing material or by a member of our crew this is an approximate guide to the length of time you should expect to be at the venue. The duration may vary slightly from venue to venue. When you are taking the experience as part of a group there may be some waiting time involved.
Descriptions & Images
all descriptions contained on our website and in our marketing material are correct at the time of going to press. Descriptions may be updated throughout the year as experiences change. The images used in all promotional literature to illustrate courses experiences, particularly those that take place at more than one location, are used as an indication only. UK Bungee Club shall not be responsible for the descriptions and images of external websites and gift experience companies
Safety
We ask you to leave plenty of time to get to the venue. All of the experiences we offer require registration, safety briefing and certain amount of preparation, it is essential that the participant attends registration otherwise they will not be able to participate. No alcohol or drugs can be consumed before any of the experiences we offer. Our crew reserve the right to refuse an activity to persons suspected to be under the influence of alcohol and / or drugs. All experiences require the wearing of safety equipment such as harnesses, this is mandatory and there are no exceptions. Other safety precautions will be advised in your confirmation details. Each venue employs professional instructors who reserve the right to end an experience or offer alternative tuition if they believe the participant may endanger themselves or other members of the public.

Cancelled Events
Sometimes the UK Bungee club has to cancel experiences for reasons, such as, but not exclusive to, the weather or mechanical breakdown, or because minimum requirements are not met such as a minimum group of people. We regret that such eventualities but in these circumstances, the UK Bungee Club is unable to reimburse travel, accommodation or any other expenses you may incur in relation to the cancelled experience. A location and experience may be terminated without warning during the lifetime of vouchers and bookings on these occasions an equivalent or alternative location or experience will be offered. If this is not suitable credit will be offered but no cash refunds will be made. As events do vary from venue to venue, please note that cancellation or re-scheduling may not always be possible.
All cancelled events will be followed up with phone calls, texts and emails. You will receive a final email reminder to rebook your experience 3 months after the cancellation of your event. You will then have 7 days from the receipt of this email to rebook. Failure to do so will result in the loss of your experience.
Booking Confirmations
UK Bungee Club booking confirmations can be delivered by email to the email address entered by the person making the booking. Be aware that some email accounts may categorise our email confirmations as unwanted or 'spam' email. To avoid this please add our email address info@ukbungee.co.uk to your address book.

Vouchers and the associated references must be kept safely and securely and presented to UK Bungee club on the day of your experience. Please check your expiry date, you must book and complete your experience prior to the expiry date on your voucher. We reserve the right to refuse participants who turn up without a valid voucher.
Failure to produce a valid voucher on the day of your experience means that full payment will be required to cover the cost of the jump before you will be allowed to proceed with registration. This payment will be refunded on receipt of a valid voucher in the post alongside a completed deposit refund form within 28 days of your jump date.
The UK Bungee Club will take no responsibility for any loss you may incur as a result of impersonation or identity fraud. A voucher will be deemed to be invalid if it is out of date unless you have written prior agreement from the UK Bungee Club or an external provider (the validity date is clearly stated on the voucher).

Customers are required to return a Voucher Extension Form and the original gift voucher via post to UK Bungee Club. The £10 administration fee must be paid prior to receiving a Voucher Extension Form. Vouchers can only be extended if they are still within the expiry date when received by UK Bungee Club. Vouchers can only be extended once with a maximum expiry date of 6 months from the original voucher expiry date. Where a gift voucher has been purchased by a third party the above terms and conditions will apply, and once extended the voucher will become non-refundable.
