 TERMS & CONDITIONS- “ADVANCE BOOKING OF AN APPOINTMENT”

Deposit, No-Show, & Cancellation Policy

  1. Breathe Day Spa is primarily a “by appointment only” business. Accordingly, it is expected from our valued clients to secure their appointments by advancing a non-refundable deposit of 50% of the total service charges applicable to the intended service since last minute cancellations can have a great impact on our business and its technicians. 

  2. This is applicable to:

    1. -       new customers;

    2. -       customers engaging us on 3 or more services;

    3. -       Customers who have a history of No Shows or last minute cancellation

    4. -       Bookings during high season (e.g. December)

  3. Appointments can be reserved via several payment options: cash or card payment in person at the spa, online via a payment link or through our website, or a bank transfer confirmation. The amount so charged will be set off against the final payment applicable to the services rendered under the respective appointment.

  4. Deposits are refundable only if a notice of cancellation is provided by the customer with at least 48 hours of prior notice.

  5. If an appointment is cancelled due to any reason [i.e. force majeure events], other than for reasons within the control of the customer, a full refund will be guaranteed. Refunds are 100% guaranteed in the event of genuine issues related to booking via the website, such as subsequent unavailability of time slots so reserved, due to technical glitches of the system or incorrect updates of the website.

  6. If, for reasons beyond the control customers are unable to proceed with an appointment, and cancel the same with a 48 hours prior notice, a refund may be considered where the customer has made reasonable efforts to proceed with the respective appointment.

  7. Refund requests without sufficient evidence of the reasons cited may be deemed non-eligible.  Customers must report any such concerns promptly. Refunds will not be entertained where the requests are not raised within a week from the date of appointment .

  8. In the event of a temporary breakdown of services offered, due to reasons beyond our control, the deposits will be applied prospectively and the respective appointments will be rescheduled. Please note that you are not entitled to discounts upon such rescheduled appointments.

  9. While we take every necessary step to ensure a smooth experience with us, by meeting your specific scheduling needs, we earnestly request you to adhere to our deposit & cancellation policy. Should you not wish to place a deposit, you may opt to “walk-in” and utilize available appointment slots, if any.

  10. Please refrain from bullying/threatening our staff in relation to refund of deposits or where you do not wish to place a deposit in securing an appointment.

  11. Eligible refunds will be credited to bank accounts provided by customers and such settlement based on the information so provided shall form full and final settlement of refunds between the parties.

  12. Decision of Breathe Day Spa, subject to above terms and conditions, shall be final in respect of  refund claims.
