What to know for Unia
Subscriptions and memberships do not automatically end upon death. Please report the death to ensure no further invoices are issued.
- Many subscriptions, memberships and contracts continue to run until they are cancelled. Until this happens, invoices and direct debits may be incurred.
- In the event of death, many providers terminate the contract early, usually upon presentation of the death certificate. The exact terms and conditions are set out in the provider’s terms and conditions.
- Amounts paid in advance are refunded in full or in part, depending on the provider; sometimes this is done purely as a gesture of goodwill.
