We will dispatch your book on the next working day after the meeting, provided we have the correct address; otherwise, on the next working day after it is confirmed. Dispatch is not a guaranteed delivery date. Postal delivery under this membership is to UK addresses only.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNo refunds are given for no-shows or missed meetings.\u003c\/strong\u003e Not attending does not pause your membership or remove the monthly payment obligation.

Cancel before the next monthly payment is processed to stop that renewal. Your membership benefits and reserved place continue through the month you have paid for. A November signup payment covers December, so cancelling future renewals before January does not remove your paid December book or gathering. If a renewal has already been processed, cancellation stops subsequent renewals and you retain that paid month’s book and gathering. These terms are subject to your statutory rights.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen cancellation takes effect, your reserved place ends. There is no automatic reinstatement or held place. To rejoin, you must sign up again, and can do so only if a space is available within the 25-member limit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThese attendance and cancellation terms do not affect your statutory rights.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Scribe \u0026 Sign","offers":[{"title":"Monthly membership","offer_id":57501024059657,"sku":null,"price":20.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"December onwards monthly membership","offer_id":57503987564809,"sku":null,"price":20.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0884\/0845\/7481\/files\/the-indie-book-club-logo.png?v=1793374300","url":"https:\/\/scribe-sign.com\/products\/the-indie-book-club-founding-membership","provider":"Scribe \u0026 Sign","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
