Legal — Irish Manual Handling

Refund & Cancellation Policy

Clear guidance on cancellations, refunds, and access to our Manual Handling Training and Manual Handling Online courses designed for transparency and compliance across Dublin and Ireland.

1) Overview

This Refund & Cancellation Policy applies to all Manual Handling Training, Manual Handling Course deliveries (including Manual Handling Online, Manual Handling Refresher, and all certification pathways) offered by Irish Manual Handling via https://www.irish-manualhandling.ie/.

As a leading provider of Manual Handling Training across Dublin and Ireland, we are committed to transparency in our policies. Please read this information carefully before purchasing or starting any Manual Handling Course to ensure you understand the terms governing your Manual Handling Certificate and course access.

2) Company Information

Irish Manual Handling is a leading provider of Manual Handling Training and Manual Handling Online courses in Ireland. Based in Dublin, we serve learners and organisations nationwide with accredited Manual Handling Course certification.

Our platform delivers instant access to Manual Handling Training, assessment, and Manual Handling Certificate generation. We are committed to transparent policies and excellent customer service for learners completing Manual Handling Refresher training or initial certification.

3) Important — No Refunds After Start

⚠️ Important — No refunds after start: Once a Manual Handling Course is purchased and you have started the training (accessed modules, content, or assessments), refunds are not possible. Course access is a digital educational service that cannot be returned or reassigned.

This strict policy protects the integrity of Manual Handling Online delivery and ensures fair access for all learners. Please review the course outline and prerequisites carefully before you begin.

4) Eligibility Before Starting a Course

In limited circumstances, you may be eligible for a cancellation review if you have not yet started your Manual Handling Training:

  • 14-day window: If you have not accessed any Manual Handling Course content, you may request a cancellation review within 14 days of purchase.
  • No access requirement: Eligibility requires proof that no Manual Handling Online module, video, content, or assessment was accessed. Even viewing a single page of course material voids eligibility.
  • Case-by-case review: Each cancellation request is assessed individually. Having an account does not automatically qualify for a refund.
  • Original payment method: Approved refunds are processed to the original payment method only - we cannot redirect refunds to different accounts or payment methods.
  • Corporate orders: For bulk Manual Handling Training purchases in Dublin, Ireland, or elsewhere, eligibility depends on whether any assigned learner has accessed content.

To protect your eligibility, do not access your Manual Handling Course until you are certain you wish to proceed with training.

5) Digital Content - Legal Basis

Access to our Manual Handling Online training constitutes the supply of digital content under Irish and EU consumer law. Understanding this classification is important for your Manual Handling Course purchase:

  • Immediate access: By starting your Manual Handling Training, you expressly agree to immediate access to digital content.
  • Waiver of cancellation right: You acknowledge that your right to cancel may be lost once you access Manual Handling Online modules, as the digital service has begun.
  • EU Consumer Rights Directive: This policy aligns with the EU Consumer Rights Directive regarding digital content and distance selling.
  • Industry standard: This reflects common practice across the Manual Handling training industry and e-learning sector in Ireland and internationally.

We recommend reviewing all Manual Handling Course details, including module content, learning outcomes, and prerequisites, before starting. Once you begin your Manual Handling Training, your Manual Handling Certificate journey has commenced and standard refund rights no longer apply.

6) Cancellations, Transfers & Substitutions

Understanding our transfer and substitution policy helps avoid complications with your Manual Handling Training purchase:

  • Non-transferable licences: Manual Handling Course licences are assigned to the named learner/account on purchase or first activation (accessing modules, content, or assessments) and are non-transferable.
  • No person-to-person transfers: Transfers to a different person or account are not permitted at any time. Your Manual Handling Certificate will be issued to the registered learner only.
  • Email corrections: If an email was entered incorrectly for the same learner, contact support before any access so we can correct the account details. Once Manual Handling Online content is accessed, changes are not possible.
  • No partial refunds: We do not provide partial refunds for incomplete Manual Handling Training modules. If you complete some but not all content, the licence remains assigned and no refund is available.
  • Corporate substitutions: For bulk orders in Dublin, Ireland, and beyond, learner substitutions may be possible only before the original learner accesses any Manual Handling Course content.

Ensure you enter the correct learner details at purchase. The Manual Handling Cert cannot be reissued to a different name after course access begins.

7) Technical Issues — Support Instead of Refunds

If you face access or playback issues during your Manual Handling Training, our dedicated support team will provide troubleshooting and completion assistance. This includes browser checks, device compatibility verification, progress resets, and video playback solutions to help you successfully complete your Manual Handling Online course.

Technical problems do not qualify for a refund once Manual Handling Course content has been accessed. Our platform is optimised for learners across Dublin, Ireland, and internationally - if you encounter difficulties, contact us and we will work to resolve them so you can obtain your Manual Handling Certificate.

8) Chargebacks & Disputes

Unauthorised or unjustified chargebacks after Manual Handling Course access is detected may lead to account suspension and Manual Handling Certificate invalidation. This protects the integrity of our Manual Handling Training system and ensures fair treatment for all learners.

We always encourage contacting us first to resolve any concerns about your Manual Handling Online training. Our support team in Ireland is committed to finding solutions that help you complete your certification successfully.

9) Corporate & Group Orders

Bulk enrolments, vouchers, and learners added to a corporate portal for Manual Handling Training follow this policy. Whether your organisation is based in Dublin, elsewhere in Ireland, or internationally, these terms apply to all Manual Handling Course purchases.

Employers may set internal rules that are stricter than ours regarding Manual Handling Online completion deadlines or Manual Handling Refresher schedules. However, internal policies do not override this Refund Policy. For large-scale Manual Handling Training programmes, contact us to discuss corporate arrangements before purchase.

10) Promotions, Vouchers & Funding

We offer various ways to save on Manual Handling Training for individuals and organisations. Here is how promotions work with our refund policy:

  • Automatic volume discount: When 10 or more Manual Handling Course places are added to the cart, the platform automatically applies a 10% discount. This is ideal for organisations in Dublin, Ireland, and beyond rolling out Manual Handling Training across teams.
  • Non-stackable discounts: The automatic bulk discount cannot be stacked with other promotional codes or offers.
  • Checkout application: Discount codes, promotions, and Skillnet Ireland or similar funding (where applicable) must be applied and validated at checkout before completing your Manual Handling Online purchase.
  • No retroactive application: Promotions cannot be applied after purchase. If you forgot to enter a code, the discount cannot be refunded.
  • No cash exchange: Promotions and vouchers are not exchangeable for cash and have no monetary value outside of Manual Handling Course purchases.
  • Funded training: If your Manual Handling Training is funded by Skillnet Ireland or another programme, refund eligibility may be affected by the funding terms.

For large corporate orders requiring custom pricing or funding arrangements, contact our team before purchasing to discuss options for your Manual Handling Certificate programme.

11) Payment, Currency & Taxes

All Manual Handling Training and Manual Handling Course purchases are processed securely through our payment system.

  • Prices for Manual Handling Online courses are displayed in EUR unless stated otherwise, reflecting our base in Dublin, Ireland.
  • Taxes and fees may apply depending on your jurisdiction. VAT is included for Irish and EU customers where applicable.
  • Electronic receipts are issued immediately after purchase, serving as proof of Manual Handling Training enrolment.
  • Corporate invoicing is available for bulk Manual Handling Course orders across Ireland and internationally.

12) Processing Timeline & Method

Where a pre‑access cancellation review for a Manual Handling Course is approved, refunds are issued to the original payment method. This applies to all Manual Handling Training products including Manual Handling Online and Manual Handling Refresher courses.

Processing timing varies by payment provider; please allow up to 14 days after approval for funds to appear on your statement. Learners in Dublin, Ireland, and internationally should note that bank processing times may vary. We will confirm the expected timeline when your refund is approved.

13) How to Request a Cancellation Review

If you believe you may be eligible for a cancellation review, follow these steps carefully to preserve your eligibility:

  1. Do not access the course: Do not log in or view any Manual Handling Training content. Accessing modules, videos, or assessments will immediately void your eligibility for cancellation.
  2. Email your request: Contact [email protected] with:
    • Your full name (as registered)
    • Order number or receipt reference
    • Email address used for the Manual Handling Course purchase
    • Reason for cancellation request
  3. Wait for confirmation: Our team will review your request and verify that no Manual Handling Online content was accessed. We may request additional information.
  4. Written decision: You will receive a written response confirming whether your cancellation has been approved or declined.

Cancellation reviews for Manual Handling Training are processed within 3-5 business days. Learners in Dublin, Ireland, and internationally follow the same process. If approved, your refund will be processed to the original payment method within 14 days.
