4. Booking Terms & Conditions for Go-Concierge Limited
Booking Conditions
Go-C Ltd’s legal liabilities to you in relation to transport arrangements are very
different to their legal liabilities to you in relation to your use of the website
and in regards the actual events.
All these liabilities are detailed below. However, we want to emphasize at the outset
as clearly as is possible that Go-C Ltd has no control of nor any involvement in
Events and other arrangements organized by you and Go-C Ltd cannot have any responsibility
to you for anything which goes wrong with an Event, accommodation, transport or
similar occurrences such as a cancellation, delay or a postponement.
The following booking conditions, which you must read carefully, reflect the above
and set out the terms and conditions of the contract between you and Go-C Ltd.
"we", "us" and "our" as are used in these terms and conditions and mean Go-C Ltd.
What you book with us is not a "package" as defined in the Package Transport, Package
Holidays and Package Tours Regulations 1992 (for UK departures) or the Package Holidays
and Transport Trade Act 1995 (for Ireland departures) and our use of the term package
hereafter is simply for convenience purposes and such use falls outside of the ambit
of the definition thereof in the above Acts and regulations and is not intended
to fall within such definition.
Events and Event Tickets
When you select our Silver, Gold or Platinum package, our responsibility is limited
to the arranging of your transport at the destination.
We do not have any responsibility for the supply, provision or conduct of the event
itself, and those responsible for same are not our suppliers.
The tickets may contain important information and conditions which you must read
carefully. Unfortunately, whilst it is uncommon, events can be cancelled, postponed,
delayed, rescheduled, abandoned or shortened at short notice or even without notice.
We make every effort to obtain and pass on to you up to date information regarding
events, players and any other information which will make your experience more enjoyable.
This information is based on details supplied to us but we cannot guarantee its
accuracy or that changes will not occur. The cancellation of an event or the non
appearance of a player or advertised tour or any other changes are entirely beyond
our control and outside of our contractual responsibilities and we do not accept
any responsibility for them.
We do not therefore accept any responsibility nor pay any refund, compensation or
other sum for any changes in or cancellation of any advertised or confirmed program
or itinerary, even where this involves the cancellation of an event which may have
been your main reason for making your booking with Go-C Ltd.
We will always do our best to find a suitable alternative and accommodate you, but
cannot promise to be able to do so. If however, we do obtain a refund from the organizer
(which we are never obliged to do), this will be passed on to you. Any attempts
to assist you in this regard would simply be a goodwill gesture and is not to be
construed as being as a result of any obligation to do so.
We accept no liability for either the validity of any tickets you purchase, or for
any cancellation or alteration of the event. No refund or compensation or other
sum will be paid by us. If we are able to change our services to coincide with the
re-arrangement of the event we will inform you of the changes and any addition or
reduction in costs that may apply.
In some cases we will not be able to alter arrangements and we will continue to
supply the original transport services which we have agreed to supply you. This
applies even where there has been a cancellation of an event which may have been
your main reason for booking transport with us.
Admission to Stadiums, Venues and Facilities
Admission to stadium/venues is controlled by the match organizer, stadium officials
and/or the police. Your actions or behaviour or the behaviour or actions of others
may result in your being denied entry to the stadium/venue.
Such circumstances are beyond our control and we accept no responsibility if this
happens. We accept no liability whatsoever for either the quality of any event or
stadium/venue facilities, or for any injury sustained in the stadium/venue or in
the vicinity of the stadium/venue or during the event.
Lost or Stolen Tickets
Go-C Ltd accepts no responsibility for lost or stolen tickets and such shall not constitute valid reason or cause to cancel your contract with Go-C Ltd.
Price Changes
Changes in transportation costs, including the cost of fuel, dues, taxes or fees chargeable for services and exchange rates will not result in the price of your Package changing after you have booked and paid.
Transport Delays
Transport delays sometimes occur. We work closely with the transport operators and
overseas offices to make sure any delay is as short and inconvenient as possible.
When a delay occurs we will try to make sure refreshments or meals are provided
when appropriate.
We will not do this ourselves as such arrangements will be the responsibility of
the transport operator. It is recommended that you take out an approved and recommended
holiday insurance or a comparable policy which should afford you cover against delays.
If any delay or change will have a significant effect on your package, we will inform
you at the earliest possible time. Changes that we will tell you about especially
include any change of the time that you are due to arrive at your event or venue
which would cause you to miss the event or the start of the event.
Our Liability to You
Our obligations under our contract are limited to using our reasonable skill and
care to arrange for the provision of the transport services which are included in
your booking and provided by independent third parties.
We have no responsibility or liability for the provision of the actual transport
services or for the acts or omissions of the transport operator concerned or any
of its/their employees, agents, suppliers or subcontractors. The transport contractors
conditions of carriage will apply to your contract (see ‘Suppliers Conditions’).
We are not a carrier or transport operator and do not enter into a contract for
carriage with you. We do not provide or undertake to provide any transport services;
we simply agree to arrange these where included in your transport arrangements.
Except in the case of death or personal injury caused by our gross negligence, our
maximum liability if we are found to be at fault in connection with our contractual
obligations to you is limited to the actual cost of your confirmed and paid booking.
However, in the event that we are found liable in relation to any transport services
or for any transport operator’s acts or omissions in any respect or on any basis
whatsoever, the maximum amount we will have to pay you will be limited to the maximum
amount the transport operator would have to pay you in accordance with applicable
International Convention(s) or Regulation(s) or National applicable law as stated
below.
When making any payment to you, we are entitled to deduct any money which you have
received or are due to receive from the transport operator for the complaint or
claim in question.
In the unlikely event of our collapse/insolvency, any money you have paid is not
protected by a scheme of financial protection. If this is important to you, we recommend
you obtain suitable transport insurance.
Accuracy of Information
Descriptions of provided services are based on information obtained from our suppliers. Sometimes the destinations, vehicles, facilities and services described will be withdrawn for reasons such as maintenance, bad weather or lack of demand from clients. Where our suppliers advise us about significant changes to destinations, vehicles, facilities and services we will inform you as soon as is possible under the circumstances. Any transfer/transport times we quote are approximate and, depending on circumstances, the journey time to your destination may be longer than quoted or anticipated.
Bookings
We allow you to sign up on our Website and purchase a Silver (Essential benefits)
package, Gold (Football plus) package or Platinum (Bells and Whistles) package as
is detailed on our Website at http://www.go-concierge.com/packages.
Signing up, booking and paying for a package does not guarantee that we will confirm
your booking, it only confirms that you have made a request for a booking to be
made and that you accept our terms and conditions.
We may change or withdraw the transport arrangements during the sign up/application
period in which case we will offer you a refund of any amount that you have paid.
For all bookings a contract will exist between you and us when we issue a confirmation
of your booking.
The person who completes the booking online or over the telephone must be a minimum
age of 18 and is responsible for payment of the total booking price, and subsequent
cancellation/amendment charges that may be payable. He/she also agrees to provide
accurate and full information regarding the remainder of the transporting party
in relation to the booking, including any changes thereto and confirms that all
the other members of the party, including any that may be added at a later date
agree to be bound by these terms and conditions, and all other information on our
Website and brochure as is applicable.
If you are a minor at the time of booking and want to transport without an adult
accompanying you, you must provide written authority in the form of a letter from
your parent or legal guardian. A contract will exist between your parent or guardian
and us. We may ask you to send us a photocopy of their passport showing their name
and signature. We will not accept written permission from a parent or legal guardian
unless we can verify the signature.
Contact after your booking and payment are received
After booking and receipt of payment we may communicate with you by e-mail (if you have booked online or given us an e-mail address we may use to contact you), by post or by telephone. By making your booking or enquiry online or otherwise providing us with an e-mail address, you authorize us to contact you in relation to your booking or enquiry using the e-mail address you have used to contact us or which you have otherwise provided. You must accordingly check your e-mails on a regular basis. Not all communications can go by e-mail. We may also contact you by post or by telephone if, for example and for whatever reason, we have difficulty contacting you by e-mail or we urgently need a response from you.
Payment terms
Subject to availability and receipt of payment, booking requests will be processed
and accepted within 5 business days by way of electronic acceptance and confirmation.
In cases of unavailability, Go-C Ltd will refund the client in full within 30 days.
Cancellation of bookings by the client will attract a cancellation and administration
fee as detailed herein.
Go-C Ltd shall take all reasonable steps to protect the personal information of
users. Payment may be made via Visa, MasterCard and American Express credit cards
or by bank transfer into the Go-C Ltd bank account, the details of which will be
provided on request.

are stored on the Website. Users may go to http://www.paypal.co.uk/uk in order to
view their security certificate and security policy.
The User details will be stored by Go-C Ltd separately from the card details which
are entered by the client on Paypals secure Website. For more detail on Paypal refer

The merchant outlet country at the time of presenting payment options to the cardholder
is England. Transaction Currency is in Pound Sterling. Payment is made online through
our totally secure Paypal facility and bookings will not be confirmed until we receive
confirmation of your payment in full.
Insurance
We strongly recommend you arrange appropriate cover. Where insurance is obligatory you must, if requested by us, provide us with the name and address of the insurance company from which you have purchased suitable cover.
Changes you make before transport
If you want to change the arrangements you have booked in any way, we will try to
assist you, although we cannot guarantee that we will always be able to do this
as changes are subject to availability at the time and to the transport provider’s
terms and conditions.
Where we can make a change, we will charge for any additional services, facilities,
or other items changed, at the price which applies on the day the change is made.
Any booking discount you may have received at the time the original booking was
made, may be altered or reduced whenever changes are made by you.
Cancellation By You
The lead name on the booking must give notice to cancel in writing and the charges
shown below apply from the date we receive the notice at our offices and we activate
the cancellation.
In order to cover our expected losses from the cancellation of the booking there
is a set scale of charges which must be paid by you if you or anyone transporting
with you cancels. Also note the exception described below which may apply in addition
to the scale of charges.
Where the Go-C Ltd receives your notice to cancel before your transportation the
cancellation charge applicable will be as follows:
31 days or more before transportation a full refund less the Go-C Ltd administrative
fee.
8-30 days before your transportation a 50% refund less the Go-C Ltd administrative
fee.
7 days or fewer days before your transportation no refund is payable to you.
If any member of the booking cancels and you cannot fill that person's place, you
may have to pay additional supplements for your package.
'Exception'
Cancellation of certain transport arrangements, can result in up to 100% cancellation charges regardless of the notice period given to us. We reserve the right to pass on these charges where they apply.
Circumstances Beyond Our Control
Except where we say differently elsewhere in these conditions, we cannot pay any
compensation, reimburse expenses, or cover losses for any amount or otherwise accept
responsibility if, as a result of circumstances beyond our control, we have to change
the arrangements you have booked with us after departure, or we, or the transport
operators cannot supply your arrangements, as we, or they, had agreed, or you suffer
any loss or damage of any description.
When we refer to circumstances beyond our control, we mean any situation that we,
or the supplier in question, could not foresee or avoid, even after taking all reasonable
care. This particularly applies where circumstances beyond our control lead to the
cancellation of events or to the rearrangement or re-scheduling of events so that
they do not coincide with your transport arrangements and we are unable to change
your transport arrangements or you are unable to take any changed transport arrangements
we can offer.
Circumstances beyond our control will also usually include, but are not limited
to, any act of God, war, terrorist activity, civil unrest, criminal activity, industrial
dispute, vandalism, road traffic accidents/congestion, bad weather (actual or threatened)
and significant building work ongoing outside of your accommodation, which is not
known to us in advance of your transport date and the like.
Changes Made After Transport
If, after your departure, a significant part of your pre-booked transport arrangements
cannot be provided, you will be offered a suitable alternative, if possible. If
it is not possible to offer you a suitable alternative or, for good reasons, you
do not accept the alternative arrangements, we will pay you reasonable compensation,
taking account of all the circumstances and this compensation shall be offered and
accepted in full settlement of any liability for such changes. The amount of compensation
will be reasonable, taking account of all the circumstances but shall not exceed
the actual price paid by you for the package.
Under these circumstances Go-C Ltd shall never be liable for any consequential damage
or loss of whatsoever nature or howsoever arising.
Please note that any cancellation of, or change to an event, whether or not part
of your booking, will not create any obligation on our part to arrange or in any
way provide alternative transport, although we shall endeavour to assist wherever
possible.
Suppliers’ conditions
Our third party suppliers have their own booking conditions and conditions of carriage,
and you will be bound by these, so far as the relevant supplier is concerned. Our
suppliers’ conditions will also apply to your contract with us, and in the event
of any conflict between the suppliers’ conditions and our conditions, the suppliers’
conditions will prevail, save to the extent that any term in the suppliers’ conditions
is deemed to be invalid or unenforceable, in which event our conditions will prevail.
Some of our Suppliers’ conditions may limit or exclude liability on the part of
the relevant supplier and, by virtue of their application to your contract with
us, may also limit or exclude our liability to you, and they are often subject to
international conventions. Where relevant, copies of such conditions may be available
for inspection at the office of the relevant supplier.
Foreign National Acts, International Conventions and the like
If any Foreign National Act applies to or governs any of the transport services, activities or facilities arranged or provided by us, or provided by any of the third party suppliers, and you make a claim against us of any nature arising out of death, injury, loss or damage suffered during or as a result of the provision of those services or facilities, our liability to pay you compensation and/or the amount (if any) of compensation payable to you by us will be limited in accordance with and/or in an identical manner to that provided for by the National Act concerned (in each case including in respect of the conditions of liability, the time for bringing any claim and the type and amount of any damages that can be awarded against us, the driver, owner or transport supplier). The Road Accident Fund Act 56 of 1996 shall apply in South Africa – more particularly section 21 thereof which relates to the abolition of certain common law claims. You can get copies of the relevant Act if you ask us. For the avoidance of doubt, this means that we are to be regarded as having all benefit of any limitations of compensation contained in any of these conventions or any other international conventions or National Act applicable to your transport arrangements and any claim arising therefrom.
Transport Timing
Transport timings are provided by transport suppliers. Local Police Authorities
and safety officers may also influence the timing of transport schedules particularly
where events involve large numbers of spectators and crowd control is necessary.
All means of transportation are subject to weather conditions.
There is no guarantee that transport will depart or arrive at the times stated on
any itinerary which you receive. All timings are estimates only, and we do not have
any liability to you for any delay, which may arise, or for any schedule alterations.
Excursions
We do not provide Overseas Booked Excursions or Pre-booked Excursions and they are
supplied by third party suppliers and are subject to the clause “Suppliers Conditions”.
Excursions do not form part of your package with Go-C Ltd and are not governed by
the Package Transport Regulations. We do not have any responsibility or liability
whatsoever for anything which may go wrong on Excursions which do not form part
of your package. Go-C Ltd, its servants, employees or agents are acting depending
upon the actual Excursion, either as agents for the relevant Excursion supplier
or as agent for you. In any event the contract for any Excursion is between you
and the Excursion supplier. It is your responsibility to note carefully any conditions
of contract contained in any Excursion literature, ticket or receipt you are given.
Complaints
If you are not satisfied with any aspect of your transport arrangements please complain
as soon as possible to the relevant person at the transport supplier. If they cannot
help you must contact us on the telephone number supplied to you on your invoice/receipt
and we will do everything reasonably possible to sort the problem out.
If you are still not satisfied please write to our offices in the UK within 30 days
of returning home. If you have special needs, which prevent you from writing to
us then, where possible, we will accept details of your complaint over the telephone.
We would point out that failure to follow the above procedures and/or failure to
complain within 30 days of your return, may extinguish any rights you have to claim
compensation from us, or from any relevant supplier. Any such rights will be extinguished
if, had you followed the above procedures, you or we could have taken steps to reduce
any loss or damage suffered or entirely prevented it from being suffered.
It is difficult and sometimes impossible properly to investigate a complaint if
we are not told about it reasonably quickly once your trip is over. Your right to
claim compensation may also be extinguished, should any delay in your complaint
being notified during or after your trip, prevent us from carrying out a proper
investigation.
Passports & Visas and Health Requirements
It is your responsibility to ensure that you and all those traveling with you have
a valid passport and any necessary visa and that you have obtained any necessary
vaccinations to gain entry to any country you are visiting. It can often take some
time to obtain a passport or visa therefore you should apply well in advance. In
peak periods it is advisable to allow at least 4 weeks. Passport and visa regulations
and health requirements can change at any time, therefore, we recommend that you
check passport/visa requirements with the Embassy or Consulate of the country you
intend to visit and that you consult your GP.
Transport advice, including health requirements can also be obtained from the UK
Foreign Office (www.fco.gov.uk) and Irish Foreign Affairs (www.foreignaffarirs.gov.ie).
We accept no liability to you if you or any member of your party transport without
the correct passport and visa or without the necessary vaccinations, and you will
have to pay to us any costs which we incur through helping you because of any such
failure on your part.
Special need requests:
If you have a special need request for anything that is not automatically part of
the transport arrangements you book through us (eg you use a wheelchair), please
advise us when you book and we will pass this information on to the companies we
work with.
Our acknowledgement of your request on your invoice/receipt confirms we have received
it and does not guarantee that we, or the relevant supplier, can meet with your
request.
Where possible they will try to help you, but we cannot guarantee any special need
request unless it is confirmed separately in writing. We must emphasize that, verbal
confirmations of special need requests cannot be taken as a guarantee that they
will be met.
Personal Information
We will provide your personal information, as well as any personal information you provide in relation to those other persons who form your booking party, to suppliers and carriers who might be located outside the UK/Ireland and/or EU, to enable the operation of the services requested by you. If you make special need requests, which include, but are not limited to, special dietary, religious or disability related requirements, which constitute sensitive information, the relevant data will also be passed to the relevant suppliers and carriers to enable provision of the services to you.
Your Responsibility
We want all our customers to have an enjoyable and carefree trip. You must remember
that you are responsible for your actions and the affect they may have on others.
If we (or another person in authority) believe your actions could upset other customers,
our suppliers or our own staff, or put them in danger, your transport arrangements
may be ended and this could mean we or our suppliers may either offload you or prevent
you from boarding the transport.
Our suppliers will deny boarding or impose additional conditions of carriage on
any passenger who, for example, is intoxicated and/or disruptive or found to be
smoking on board the transport. If this happens, we will not pay compensation, make
refunds, or cover any expenses you suffer as a result.
You also have a duty to act responsibly at the event. Stadium officials or the police
may refuse your entry or eject you from the stadium if you are or are suspected
to be intoxicated, or abusive or your actions/behaviour is felt to be inappropriate
or in breach of the club or stadium’s rules. In this event, Go-C Ltd cannot become
involved in any dispute and you may be prevented from using the transport services
or have additional conditions of carriage imposed on you. If this happens, we will
not pay compensation, make any refund, reimburse any expenses you suffer as a result
or otherwise have any liability to you.
Law and Jurisdiction

will be dealt with in the courts of England and Wales. If you live in Northern Ireland
or Scotland, the courts of Northern Ireland or Scotland (as appropriate), will have
jurisdiction to deal with any disputes.
