How to reverse a payment

This will be useful if: 

You are a Driving Instructor User of the EzLicence booking platform.

You are trying to: 

Reverse a payment and not charge the learner for a cancelled booking.

Overview:

We understand that life can be unpredictable, and sometimes unforeseen circumstances can prevent you or your learner from keeping your booking. EzLicence’s goal is to ensure a smooth and fair experience for everyone.  Below are examples of situations where you may choose to reverse a payment and not charge for a booking:

1.    Medical Emergency:

When a learner or their immediate family member experiences a sudden illness or medical emergency, or the learner is deemed contagious by a medical professional.

2.    Traffic Issue:

When there are significant traffic issues due to road closures or car accidents, and a driving lesson is not possible.

3.    Natural Disaster:

Severe weather events, earthquakes, floods, or other natural disasters prevent safe driving conditions for a learner driver.

4.    Bereavement:

If there has been a recent death in the immediate family.

5.    Pandemic or Public Health Orders:

If public health orders or guidelines due to a pandemic or other public health crisis prevent a driving lesson from going ahead.

We recommend actioning any reversals as soon as practical, this will ensure a smooth experience for your learner. You do have up to 30 days to reverse a payment if required.
