How to Cancel/Freeze Your Membership

Our monthly Family Membership Plan makes it easy for you to register anytime, never miss a registration deadline or lose your spot in class. It also makes it super easy for you to cancel or freeze your membership when you need to. There are just a few guidelines that need to be followed! 

As a reminder, when you registered, you committed to staying in the Family Membership Plan for at least THREE months. Your initial fee collected at registration includes a non-refundable registration fee, plus your first THREE months tuition (prorated, as needed). The earliest possible cancelation dates are as follows:

What if I need to cancel my membership? For In-person classes, at least thirty-days notice is required to cancel by sending written notification to wtlittle@optonline.net. Membership ends on the last day of the following month following notification. If cancellation corresponds with the start of a new song collection, you will not receive the new songbook/CD.  There are no refunds for unused classes.  

How will I be billed?  You will be billed monthly. All billing is done automatically on the 1st of every month for the following month’s tuition. E.g., on January 1 we run tuition for February classes. All billing is done using a credit card that you will have saved in your account profile. It is your responsibility to keep the credit card information up to date (you can make changes either by logging in to your account or give us a call in the office and we can assist you in making the changes). There will be a $10 charge for declined credit card transactions.  

Do classes run continuously? How are holidays handled?  Classes will run each week unless specified on the Holiday Schedule below. There are on average, 3 in-person classes scheduled per month (approximately 10 classes per 3 month period).

 

All holidays are also marked on our calendar:

2024/2025
Bank Holiday – Republic Day – 5 October, 2024
Winter Recess: 23 December 2024 – 05 January 2025
Spring Recess: 25 April 2025 – 27 April 2025
Summer Break: August 1-August 31 2025

Bank Holiday – All Saint’s Day – 1 November 2025 

Can I just join for one semester? Yes and no. While we will still follow the Music Together Song Collections schedule, we no longer organize our classes into semesters/sessions, as we did in the past. Joining the Family Membership Plan is the only way to enjoy our Music Together classes on a regular basis. But you are in control of how long you want to be enrolled for and can cancel at any time after the minimum 3 months membership is met.  So, for example, if you know you only want to join us for the Fiddle Song Collection (which begins mid-September and runs until mid-December), we would just need you to send your notice of cancellation by November 30 for your membership to end on December 31 (so you actually get all of the Fiddle classes plus a week or two of the next collection!).

I forgot to cancel my account – can I get a refund? While we understand that things come up and that we won’t be able to make music together forever, we’re not able to grant refunds once tuition has been charged for the following month. Our classes and expenses are formed and calculated based on who we thought was joining us by each of the cancelation cut-off dates.
