   3. Confirm the Reference used for the payment  
4. The UK Contingent Team will reply to the grant-recipient confirming the request. 

Refunds, removals, withdrawals and role transfers

The UK Contingent has full discretion on refunds. If the donation-recipient withdraws from the Jamboree or transfers roles, it’s their responsibility to notify their donation-provider. The donation-provider may contact [email protected] to request a refund. The UK Contingent will not accept refund requests from the donation-recipient. 

A refund will only be eligible if there’s a Contingent-wide refund provided, for example if the event is cancelled. See the Terms and Conditions (which can be found in EventsAir) for more information. In this instance, it’s the responsibility of the donation-recipient to notify the donation-provider that the UK Contingent is providing refunds and the donation-provider should contact [email protected] as soon as possible. If we don’t hear from the donation-provider before the refunds have been issued, it’s the responsibility of the donation-recipient to pay the grant provider their money back. The UK Contingent takes no responsibility for the donation money after it has been returned to either the donation-recipient or donation-provider.
