Cheques should be made payable
to the Braille Chess Association.
Building society cheques should have the name of the sender clearly
marked. Post dated cheques are not
accepted. Bookings accepted after
the closing date are subject to a £10 late booking penalty for each
person. Late bookings and entries
are accepted at the discretion of the organiser. Bookings are confirmed when full payment
has been received.
Payments can only be refunded
within the time limit set in the terms and conditions set by the various
hotels. Members are advised to take
out holiday insurance to cover themselves.
When sending your cheque to
the treasurer, please include details of your booking requirements
including:
1. Single room, double room or twin room
2. If you prefer a bath or a shower
3. If you prefer a room in which you may
smoke. Please note many hotels now
adopt a no smoking policy.
4. If you will be bringing your guide dog.
5. If you are on a special diet.
6. If you have mobility problems and would
benefit from being located in a room near to a lift.
7. If you are a wheelchair user.
8. Any other special requirements.
There is no need to send your
requests to the organiser as the treasurer will do this, but you may, of
course, contact the organiser on any point.
Please do not make special requests to the hotel as this causes
confusion.
Those who make payment into
the BCA’s account on-line or by direct bank transfer should make sure
their payment is cleared by the closing date. When this has happened inform the
treasurer your payment has been made and include your booking requirements
as above. Bank details for those who
wish to make a telephone or internet banking payment to the BCA.
