Membership Terms and Conditions
The current membership is available to view here.
In order to keep the membership categories, fees and membership benefits relevant, these are reviewed on an annual basis by the UDIA board.
Membership Subscription Period
In order to allow the Association to plan its resources and thereby offer a reliable service to members we require that all members maintain their membership for a minimum period of 12 months from joining/renewing
Your membership subscription starts on the date you applied to join the Association on your current plan. The subscription lasts for a period of 12 months (minimum membership period) and becomes due for renewal on the annual anniversary of the subscription start date.
At intervals just prior to your renewal date, you will receive communication from the Association requesting and providing renewal information for the forthcoming year.
Membership Subscription Fees
The current subscription fees are available to view here. Subscription fees are reviewed by the UDIA Executive Committee on an annual basis.
UDIA prefers that you pay for your membership subscription by credit/debit card online and you are required to keep your credit/debit card details up-to-date on your profile in the account’ area of the UDIA website. Failure to do so may incur a disruption to your subscription benefits.
Credit/debit card payers will be paying for their annual membership subscription in one-off payment on an annual payment plan.
Non-Payment of Subscription Fees: UDIA is a not-for-profit organisation and membership subscriptions form a big part of the income for the Association. Unpaid subscription fees have a big impact on improving and providing services for members, therefore, UDIA reserves the right to take necessary steps to recover unpaid subscription fees.
If you anticipate any problems with the payment of your subscription, please contact help@udia.uk
Where the subscription fees remain unpaid following the renewal date for payment, your subscription will automatically cease and your subscription will be lapsed.
The Association reserves the right to request immediate payment of any outstanding sums.
Membership Subscription Renewal
Approximately a week prior to renewal date, those paying an annual plan will receive communication from the Association with a reminder for the forthcoming year.
Information for Members joining the Association 2019 onwards:-
Your subscription is a recurring subscription and will automatically renew unless a cancellation email is received giving notice of at least 7 working days to the Association. This should be sent to the help@udia.uk
Information for All Members:-
If you pay for your subscription by credit/debit card, it is essential you check your card details are correct and make any relevant amendments to your profile via the account area of the UDIA website at least 7 working days before your membership is due to expire, to ensure your membership does not suspend and disruptions to your subscription benefits do not occur.
Membership Subscription Cancellation Policy
As membership subscriptions are calculated to provide services for a whole year, members can only cancel their subscription at the end of their membership year. Cancellations are not permitted if it falls within the 12-month membership subscription.
If you remove your card details from the members’ area, this will not automatically cancel your membership. It is therefore, important that you contact help@udia.uk to resign.
You may cancel your membership by notifying the help@udia.uk in writing, at least working 7 days prior to your membership subscription expiry date. If you have not received a response within 3 working days, please contact the Membership Secretary. If your decision is not to renew your membership, the UDIA Executive Committee would be very interested if you could, briefly, give your reasons for taking this course of action. Therefore, if you could send a brief statement giving your reasons it will help them to identify if there are any membership issues UDIA should be addressing which would prevent members, such as yourself, from leaving the organisation. Thank you for your time and consideration of this request.
The Membership sectary will set your database record to expire at the expiry date and cancel all payment options.
In case of non-payment of subscription fees during a 12-month membership subscription, please refer to the non-payment of subscription fees section above.
You can update your profile at any time via the account’ area of the UDIA website. Here, you can set your email preferences.
