5.5 You acknowledge and accept that from time to time, You may experience entire or partial failure of Your video during the delivery of the Tutoring Services due to fluctuations or insufficient bandwidth and under such circumstances, You agree that the Tutoring Service shall continue without video and confirm that this is acceptable to You in all circumstances.

6.0 CLIENT FEES, TUTOR FEES AND Mocode PAYMENTS

6.1 Tutor authorises TC as its agents to accept any credit or debit cards or other forms of payment approved by TC in connection with the provision of the Tutoring Services via the Site including Mastercard, Visa and Maestro debit cards on the Tutor’s behalf.

6.2 Tutor authorises TC to charge and collect on behalf of Tutor, the face value of Tutoring Services from Clients.

TC holds all Client Fees (which will be based on the number of undisputed and completed Tutoring Services) for the Tutor in a dedicated Tutor Bank Account for a limited time and is entitled to retain the full amount of TC Payments it charges to Tutor in consideration for the TC Services provided prior to releasing the Tutor Fees to Tutor.

6.3 All costs relating to lessons and TC Payments are reviewable by tutors and TC and any revised fees and charges shall take effective immediately upon posting on the Site and will be applicable to all bookings made after such posting.

6.4 You confirm that You are self-employed under these Tutor Terms, and You are directly responsible to HMRC for all matters regarding Income Tax, VAT and relevant National Insurance contributions.

It is therefore necessary for You to keep records of payments made to You by way of Tutor Fees for completion of annual Tax Returns. You hereby agree to fully indemnify TC for or against all and any demands by HMRC to TC for Income Tax, VAT or National Insurance, or any other claim by HMRC, including any interest or penalties, arising out of Your failure to account properly or at all for any liabilities to HRMC arising from Your Tutoring Services. This indemnity shall include all expenses and costs, including legal fees, incurred by TC in dealing with any such claim by HMRC.

7.0 SETTLEMENT

7.1 TC shall pay to Tutor an amount equal to the gross Tutor Fees collected by TC, less any charges for TC Services made in connection with this Agreement.

Such payments shall be made on the thirtieth (30th) of every calendar month with the exception of February where payment will be made on the twenty eighth (28th).

7.2 In response to a Dispute, if any Refund occurs, TC will be entitled, in its sole discretion to refund the Client on behalf of the Tutor in full or in part.

In such circumstances, the Tutor will receive either no Tutor Fees or only part of the Tutor Fees respectively.

7.3 If any Refund occurs subsequent to the Tutor receiving the Tutor Fees from TC, TC shall be entitled to withhold sufficient monies and offset any amounts payable to Tutor by TC under this Agreement from any gross Tutor Fees collected by TC thereafter to enable TC to refund the relevant Client on the Tutor’s behalf.

TC shall be entitled to repay such monies to the Client at its discretion. The Tutor shall be responsible for all chargebacks and/or refund requests on lessons performed and shall indemnify TC against all Losses resulting from chargebacks and/or refund requests.

7.4 Tutor authorises TC to self-bill for all the TC Services until revoked and acknowledged in writing.

TC shall be entitled to make any settlement payment to Tutor by BACS, whereby funds are transferred direct to the Current Account of the Tutor (or to such other bank account as the parties agree in writing). Monies should show in the Current Account within three (3) days.

9.0 CANCELLATIONS, RESCHEDULING, NO-SHOW

9.1 Arrangements between Clients and You may be cancelled by either party at any time in advance of the lesson taking place.

For the purposes of the Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013 (the “Regulations”), the Client agrees to waive their statutory cancellation rights once payment of the Client Fees have been received by TC. For the avoidance of doubt, prior to payment being received, a Client shall be entitled to cancel the Tutoring Services ordered. Notwithstanding this, once payment of the Client Fees has been made by the Client, Client shall still be entitled to cancel a lesson and request a refund but if the Client cancels or reschedules:

a.within twenty-four (24) hours hours of the lesson start date and time, the Client shall forfeit 100% of the Client Fees; or,

i.a re-scheduled lesson; or failing agreement on that,

9.2 In the event of cancellation of the Tutoring Services by the Client pursuant to clause 9.1a, Your Tutor Fees shall be paid to You in full.

9.3 In the event of cancellation of the Tutoring Services by the Client pursuant to clause 9.1b(i), You will only receive the Tutor Fees upon successful performance of the Tutoring Services as re-scheduled in accordance with these Tutor Terms.

9.5 No-show by You at a lesson without having cancelled it as well as repeated cancellations of lessons by You may result in the termination of this Agreement between You and TC under clause 13 and in any event TC will log the incident on Your record for a period of twelve (12) months.

9.6 All cancellations must be made in writing in advance, directly via the Site.

Should a Student fail to attend a lesson without giving written advance notice and a refund is not issued, You shall not be paid for that lesson.

10.0 CLIENT RATINGS, FEEDBACK AND OTHER ACTIVITIES

10.1 It is a feature of the Site and the TC Services that the Client will leave Client Ratings.

10.2 Where deemed necessary, TC is entitled to carry out an investigation upon receipt of negative Client Ratings (rating of 1, 2 or 3 out of 5) or where a Tutor or a Client reports or raises any feedback, issues or concerns that they might have with the other at any time.

Whether such feedback is complimentary or more akin to a Dispute, TC will have full discretion as to whether they inform the other of such feedback. Where deemed necessary, TC is entitled to carry out an investigation upon receipt of such feedback or comments and in exceptional cases, TC is entitled to suspend or terminate Your Account or revoke the licence granted to the Tutor herein to use the Site and the TC Services by termination under clause 13.
