Paying for Your Dental Care Membership

Paying for your children’s dental care plan is easy. You may pay by a monthly standing order from your bank of building society. Simply fill out the standing order form and return it to us so that we may include a practice reference. Additionally, we ask you to inform us of when you would like the payment to begin. Each transaction will be sent from your bank on the last day of every month. Alternatively, you may wish to pay annually by:

• Cash
• Standing Order
• Cheque
• Credit Card

Although we accept the above payment methods, we do not process credit card transactions by phone. The practice reserves the right to cancel a patient’s enrolment if payment is more than one month overdue.

The cost of the plan will be reviewed at the beginning of each year. You will be notified before February 1 each year of the charges which will apply from the following July 1. This clause does not apply to those enrolled in the scheme by April 1 2006.

Leaving the Dental Plan

We encourage you to enjoy the benefits by staying enrolled in the scheme throughout your time at our practice. However, we appreciate circumstances can often change. Of course, you are free to withdraw from the scheme at any time.

Withdrawal will take place one entire calendar month following your written notice (please refer to cause five of the agreement). If you pay your fees annually, we make a refund proportional to the time remaining in the 12-month period. 

If you pay monthly, you will be responsible for the cancellation of your standing order.
