Refund and Service Adjustment Policy
This policy explains how Celtic Racing News reviews requests about briefing quality, cancellations, service changes, duplicate payments, incomplete appointments and related situations where a customer seeks a refund, credit, price adjustment or a replacement recap. Motorsport news results depend on constructor list, available desk time, selected format, arrival, beat class and the accuracy of booking information. Refunds are not automatic simply because a classification was not what you hoped. Each request is reviewed on its facts with fairness and transparency. Celtic Racing News brings you the latest Formula 1 updates, race results, driver news, team stories, and motorsport highlights, based at 770 Admiral Blvd, Kansas City, MO 64106, United States.
Stay connected with the biggest moments from the world of racing, all in one place. We aim to resolve reasonable concerns fairly. Possible outcomes include a replacement recap, completion of an overlooked confirmed extra, a partial refund, a briefing credit, a booking adjustment or a full refund when appropriate. Honest pricing, prompt files and complete reader satisfaction remain our working standard, including when a concern needs a second look after the chequered flag.
1. Scope
This policy covers race recaps, weekend packages, academy briefings, supporter nights, campus cups, championship round-ups, extra files, headlines and confirmed add-ons. It applies only to amounts paid for Celtic Racing News briefings. It does not cover unrelated losses, third-party costs, travel, missed work, business interruption or indirect damages. A standard 15-minute recap is not judged against a 75-minute weekend package, private hire or championship round-up unless that enhanced service was booked and confirmed in writing. This policy does not replace mandatory consumer rights.
2. General Principles
News briefings involve labour, desk time, feeds, sources, equipment and reserved slots that cannot be returned like a sealed retail product. Refunds may be considered for confirmed billing errors, sessions cancelled solely by Celtic Racing News before filing, substantial undelivered confirmed work or documented quality issues remaining after a reasonable corrective opportunity. Ordinary session changes, slower updates, traffic on feeds, embargoes, and conditions that a recreational recap cannot control do not automatically qualify.
Any approved refund is proportionate. If only one extra file, one unused beat, or one add-on is affected, adjustment may be limited to that portion of the paid amount. Customers who received a discounted package are refunded on the amount actually paid, not on a higher undiscounted menu price.
3. Quality Concerns and Correction
Report concerns promptly and identify the recap, beat, extra or task. We may offer a replacement file or a short extra briefing limited to the reported issue before considering money back. Reasonable attendance is required. Refusing a fair replacement, delaying a return visit, or leaving before editors can review the issue may reduce or deny a refund. Celtic Racing News provides motorsport news coverage, not professional scouting licences, constructor management or guaranteed headlines unless headlines were booked.
A feed swap during a recap does not always mean the session was unfinished if coverage continued on a replacement source. Missed confirmed extras may be completed later or addressed with a partial refund or credit. Tasks excluded from the booking, blocked by late arrival, restricted for embargo or unavailable because a guest failed house rules are not treated as missed.
4. Full, Partial and Credit Outcomes
A full refund may apply when Celtic Racing News cancels after payment and no reasonable alternative is accepted, when no coverage was performed solely due to Celtic Racing News, when a confirmed duplicate charge occurred or when the delivered briefing was fundamentally different and no meaningful portion of the ordered coverage was completed. Full refunds are generally unavailable after substantial completion of desk time. Partial refunds may cover undelivered portions or unavailable paid add-ons such as headlines, extra files or photos.
Service credits may replace a cash refund for future eligible coverage; credits are not cash and may have usage conditions communicated at the time of issue. If we stop a session before filing after payment, we will typically offer a reschedule, credit or refund of the unused briefing amount.
5. Cancellations, Access and Condition
Advance notice supports a fuller refund of prepaid fees, excluding any disclosed non-refundable component such as specially ordered print stills. Late or same-day cancellations may reduce the refund. If editors are ready and the group cancels or arrives too late to brief fairly, charges for reserved desk time may apply. If Celtic Racing News cancels before filing, a reschedule, credit or refund of the cancelled session amount may be offered. Indirect costs are not covered, including flights, hotels, meals and lost work time.
Customers must arrive in time for notes and briefing. Failed attendance due to wrong time, missing guests or a group that cannot meet house rules may be treated as late cancellation. Inaccurate session count or undisclosed academy sides may lead to revised price or format.
6. Non-Qualifying Situations and Process
Refunds are normally refused for wrong package selection, underestimated constructor list, expectations outside the booking, damage unrelated to our workmanship, disappointment with results, late unverifiable reports, refused replacement files or preference-only dissatisfaction after a properly completed confirmed format. Motorsport news does not guarantee a favourite result, a contract confirmation, or a later championship title unless expressly agreed. Choosing a 15-minute recap when a weekend package was needed is not a billing error.
7. Recurring Plans, Add-Ons and Fair Process
Recurring championship or workplace cups treat each completed round separately unless the plan states otherwise. Cancelling a championship briefing does not refund completed rounds. Paid add-ons must be confirmed in the booking. If an add-on cannot be completed because of a Celtic Racing News issue, the add-on value may be refunded or credited.
Customers must give accurate booking details, timely arrival and information about championships, first-timers or restricted sources. Prompt reporting helps verification. Celtic Racing News may close a request if there is no response. Promotional discounts are refunded on the amount actually paid. Duplicate confirmed charges are reversed. This policy works alongside booking terms and does not remove mandatory consumer rights.
Approved refunds usually return to the original payment method. Processing time depends on banks and processors. Use our resolution process before a chargeback. Fraudulent or abusive claims may be denied and future bookings restricted.
