Minimum Period of Membership

If you choose our monthly subscription plan, we have a minimum 3 months membership period, and you will be liable to pay for a minimum of 3 months membership. You may cancel your plan at any time after that. We reserve the right to seek three months of minimum payments from you using the card mandate that you created when you applied for this plan.

If you choose our Annual subscription plan, we have a minimum 12 months membership period, and you will be liable to pay for a minimum of 12 months membership. You may renew your plan at any time after that. There is no refund policy if you have selected the annual subscription and want to cancel after you have selected this plan within the 12 month subscription period.

Concessions policy

We offer concessions to various groups, such as Seniors, Parents and Students and so on. To secure this concession we will ask that you supply proof that you qualify for this concession. The process works like this:

1. We ask that you send that proof to us via a document capture process which we will send to you when you apply
2. Once we have received and accepted your proof of concession, we will send you a ink to continue your application at the concessionary rate
3. If we cannot validate your documents and if you don’t therefore qualify for the concessionary rate, we will send you a link to continue with your application at the full rate if you wish

All copies of all documents will be deleted immediately that we have verified their validity. We have no use of those documents once this process has been completed.

Manage My Membership

If you have been granted access to our GP On Demand App, you are able to manage all of your personal details, contact information, payments and subscriptions and security settings from the App.

If you have lost access to the App or have never accessed the App, please send any query or request to us using the Contact form on our Contact us page

Payment

Payment will be made by secure card payment. Monthly payments will then be taken each month by secure card payment on that same date each month. The payment date cannot be changed.

Payments are made monthly in advance. You can cancel your card payment before it is due, including the day that is due and you will have no more to pay. There is no refund or part refund if you cancel a payment after it is due.
Payments will appear on your bank account as “GP On Demand”.

Cancelling your plan

You can easily cancel your membership subscription using the MEMBER button option in the GP On Demand App. From there you can access your subscription and payment mandate and cancel the subscription. As soon as you cancel your membership all of your benefits will cease. If you are unable to access the GP On Demand App, you can send us your cancellation request via our Contact us page in this website.
