Confirmation Procedure In order for your booking to be processed, you must sign the terms and conditions by ticking the box agreeing to them when you register for the conference. Your place is not guaranteed until you have received email confirmation for your registration and payment for your registration has been received; please look out for the email confirming the details of your booking. If you do not receive this within 24 hours of your registration, please email BSASconference@abbeyuk.com. All fees must be paid in full prior to the conference, without exception. If you arrive at the conference with payment still outstanding, you will be asked to make this payment at the registration desk. Payment If you request to be invoiced, payment terms will be 30 days from invoice date. An invoice will be generated and sent out to you via email. If your company uses Purchase Order Numbers, please supply this at the time of booking as failure to do so may cause problems with your booking. Payment details and methods will be outlined on the invoice. If you chose to pay by credit card upon registration, your receipt will be included on your confirmation email. Please note we do not accept cash or cheque payments. We must receive full payment prior to the event start date. If you are booking within 6 weeks of the event, we will require payment by credit card. If this causes difficulty, then please contact BSASconference@abbeyuk.com. Registration BSAS Annual Conference 2024 is being held as an in-person event at the Assembly Buildings in Belfast, 9th – 11th April 2024. Delegate information will be sent to you within 5 working days prior to the conference. Membership You may choose to become a BSAS member as part of the conference booking process and to receive membership discount on your booking. Your membership fee will be charged at this point. If your application for membership is later refused the discount will no longer be applicable. Any difference in non-member pricing and membership fee refund will be returned to you. Membership fees are not refundable. Cancellations Cancellation of registrations must be received in writing to BSASconference@abbeyuk.com. Cancellations received up to 30 days prior to the conference are entitled to a full refund less a £50 administration fee. Within 30 days of the conference, no refund applies. BSAS will not be held responsible if for any reason the conference is unable to commence or curtailed early. Substitute delegates are welcome at no extra charge but we require you to advise us of any substitutions no later than 30 days prior to the first day of the conference. Any cancellations that still have payment outstanding will be liable for either the administration fee or the full registration fee, dependent on the date and time of the cancellation. Attendance fees will not be refunded in the event of threat of war, terrorism, strikes or other circumstances outside of the organisers’ control.
