The Paid Membership Account forms set out the key criteria for each type of membership available and you will only be entitled to the services specified for your category of membership. By filling out a particular form you warrant that you meet the criteria specified. We may contact you at any time to verify any information that you have submitted either by email or telephone and reserve the right not to process any membership application at our sole discretion.

Monty’s Guide membership will automatically renew at the end of each term for a further term of 12 months unless you cancel your subscription via the Members Area located at https://montysguide.com/my-account/subscriptions/or sending a written notice of cancellation e-mail to listings@montysguide.com at least 30 days prior to the end of the relevant term.
An upgrade from a Free Listing Account into a Paid Membership Account will end your free listing. You will be billed for your first year immediately upon upgrading. The Service is billed in advance on a yearly basis and is non-refundable. There will be no refunds or credits for partial membership, upgrade / downgrade of paid memberships, or refunds for months unused within an annual Paid Membership Account.
