Paid Programs – Single Usage Rights

IMPORTANT: If you join any of our paid courses, the fee you pay is to educate one person. You are not permitted to share your login with anybody else. You are permitted to access the content from up to three devices of which no more than two can be tablet or desktop devices. We may use IP tracking software, pixels or cookies that tracks every individual login to our paid content and the email address associated with the account that paid for the course. This software tracks the date, time, location, device type, email address of paid account, what kind of device was used, the browser used and all content viewed. If a breach of contract occurs as a result of more than 3 devices or more than 2 desktop or tablet devices accessing your account, your account may be immediately suspended or blocked permanently depending on the outcome of an investigation into the matter. In essence, buying access to any of our paid content is for one person only, not as many people as you care to share your logins with.

Right to Suspend Services

Sonny English may suspend Subscriber’s or any Member’s use of the Services if Sonny English reasonably and in good faith believes such suspension is necessary to prevent unauthorized use of the Services or to prevent an ongoing violation of any applicable laws or regulations. Sonny English will use commercially reasonable efforts to notify Subscriber or Member prior to any such suspension and will only suspend the Services to the extent necessary to prevent such unauthorized use or violation. In addition, if Subscriber fails to timely pay any fees in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and/or any Service Order, Sonny English may, without limitation to any of its other rights or remedies, suspend performance of the Services until it receives all amounts due.

Subscription Plan

By subscribing to our Services you are agreeing to pay recurring periodic subscriptions for an indefinite time until cancelled by you, on the subscription terms set out in the application form you have completed. You can cancel your subscription at any time. You will not be charged for any cancellation. You can re-subscribe at any time following your cancellation, but we reserve the right not to permit re-subscription where we have previously elected to terminate a subscription by you.

Subscription Cancellation

If you wish to cancel your monthly subscription with us, you must cancel 7 days before your next payment is due to be collected. Subscribers cancelling after their payment has been taken will receive another month access. If your payment has been cancelled before the 7 day period this will avoid being charged for another month.

Private Lesson Cancelation Policy

If you reschedule your lesson for a different time or date, you will not lose that lesson fee – this lesson fee will be transferred to the new time or date for no added cost. However, you must meet these conditions:

• You must email me to reschedule the lesson.
• You must send this email a minimum of 6 hours before the lesson is due to start.

You may only reschedule a lesson twice. If you cannot make your second rescheduled lesson (third overall lesson), your lesson will be cancelled and you will lose that lesson fee and a refund will not be given.

If you do not reschedule your lesson a minimum of 6 hours before your lesson is due to start, your lesson will be cancelled and you will not receive a refund.

Teacher Cancelation

On very rare occurrences, such as an emergency or an illness, I may be unable to teach your lesson. If this ever happens, I will try to give you at least 24 hours notice but you must accept that this can occasionally happen on the day of the lesson itself. In cases where I cannot teach the scheduled lesson, the lesson will be rescheduled.

Lesson Times

You must be on time for your lessons. I will wait a maximum of 10 minutes for you to come to your class. If you have not arrived within 10 minutes, your lesson will be cancelled and you will not receive a refund. The lesson will run for one hour from the time it was due to start. If you arrive 10 minutes late, you will lose 10 minutes from your lesson and only have 50 minutes.

Refund Policy

We offer digital content that can be consumed instantly after a purchase has been made. There is no “trial” or “grace period” after purchasing any product which means all sales are final. Once you have purchased the content, there is no way to “return” it. Refunds will not be provided.

Exam Results:

I pride myself on my ability to help students get the scores they require in order to achieve their specific goals. A great amount of effort is put into crafting each and every lesson with the target of preparing students for everything the PTE exam might throw at them, and giving them the tools and techniques to boost their chances of success.

However, despite best efforts, sometimes results do not meet expectations. When you commit to lessons with Sonny English, you accept that Sonny English does not take any responsibility for a disappointing score, and that there can be no refunds.
