Are deposits refundable if I have to cancel ?
Read below to see our rules. We will refund your total amount in most cases which we feel is very fair!
In fact, you will have to work pretty hard NOT to get your money back.
1. Pay a £300 deposit; it goes towards ATOL insurance. Your money is bonded and insured and gets you on the internship program.
2. Once you get informed by the Wintersports team, enter the visa program when it opens for applicants; we suggest doing this as early as possible due to limited visas. You now need a job offer to get a visa invite. We will assist you with this from start to finish. However, the guide we send you should be clear enough for you to get through the process on your own; if not, our in house visa expert will assist you free of charge.
3. Once you have been invited to the IEC Working Holiday Visa Program, you pay £1000, which completes your deposit. (We suggest getting cheap travel insurance at this point to secure your £1300 deposit, in case you then have some bizarre gardening accident or hurt yourself doing extreme ironing and cannot go on holiday)
Our payment scheme then continues in either this manner.
4. Equal monthly payments up to 4 weeks before flying or….one final lump sum 8 weeks before flying.
We only refund the total amount if you:
Are you refused a visa (please send us a screenshot of your portal)
Are not invited (please send us a screenshot of your portal)
The visas are not being handed out
We are not running the courses due to Covid
You cannot fly into Canada due to Covid
You do not get your first choice of resort. (Your option of resort will be offered to you upon the visa invite and us receiving the £1000)
So as you can see, we will refund your total amount in most cases which we feel is very fair!
In fact, you will have to work pretty hard NOT to get your money back.
