AUTOGIRATORY CONSENT
I authorize withdrawals to be made from the specified bank account at the request of the payee F4L for transfer to it via the bank’s automatic payment service, Autogiro. The bank is not obliged to check the authorization or notify me in advance of requested withdrawals. I will receive notification of withdrawals made on account statements from the bank. At my request, authorization may be transferred to another account with the bank or to an account with another bank. Withdrawals from my account will be made at the earliest on the due date. If I do not have enough money in my account for my payments on the last business day before the due date, I am aware that this may mean that the payments will not be made. If payments are nevertheless made, the bank is entitled to charge interest and fees in accordance with the bank’s rules in force from time to time for the debt thereby incurred. I agree that the withdrawal may be charged to my account with the bank in accordance with the bank’s rules. I accept that the bank must approve that my account may be used for Autogiro and that the bank and the payee have the right to cancel my connection to Autogiro in certain cases. Bankgirocentralen BGC AB has been commissioned to manage the Autogiro routine on behalf of the bank. I therefore give my consent for information from the bank’s register on the account number and address to be combined with Bankgirocentralen’s information in a register. My consent is valid until further notice. The consent will expire no later than five banking days after I have revoked it in writing to the payee or the bank. I may also stop one or more withdrawals by notifying the bank at least two days before the due date, using a special form or other procedure specified by the bank. When I have stopped a consent via the bank, this means that no payments based on the stopped consent will be made until I have lifted the stop myself. If I have not lifted a stop payment within two months, my consent to that payee expires.
By entering into this agreement, the member agrees to camera surveillance of the premises. Fit4Life undertakes not to share the image / film with third parties. Apart from requests from the police.
