How can I refund a lesson offer to a student?

For teachers: Lesson Offers have specific refund rules and here are your options

Updated over 3 months ago

This article refers to a refund via Lesson Offers. If your query is in respect of a block of lessons, please follow the refund process for Lesson Blocks.

When a student requests a Lesson Offer to be refunded, the first step is to be clear on the process you need help with:

  • A Refund is where lessons paid for by a student are returned to them unused as cash. In other words, the student gets their money back

  • A 'Make-up' lesson is where a lesson from a Lesson Offer is moved to a new date and time. Make-up lessons can be used as a 'goodwill gesture' when the student has given adequate notice or when the teacher can no longer deliver the lesson on the original date and time

As a teacher, you cannot process a refund but should email the request to info@musicteachers.co.uk. We will process the refund to the student, subject to the refund terms and conditions you have input within your Offer.

Actions by you:

  • If a Lesson Offer is still in the future, and your terms and conditions state that a refund is possible, email info@musicteachers.co.uk to request this

  • If a Lesson Offer is in the future, and your terms and conditions state that only a make-up lesson is available, you can edit the Offer to change the date/time

  • If a Lesson Offer is in the past, no refunds are available

A refund of a Lesson Offer

Where a student has purchased a Lesson Offer, a refund is only available if

  • The terms and conditions you selected state this and the lesson is still in the future

  • The student purchased the Lesson Offer within the past 14 days, meaning they can exercise their legal right to change their mind in a “cooling-off” period

Important: No refunds are available for lessons that are in the past
