Information about Working with Us or Buying from Us Online
Payment Terms
For nutrition consultations and product sales made online, we operate on a pay in advance basis in Australian dollars (AUD). This means that for your consultation appointment booking to be confirmed, you will need to pay in advance. Currently we tentatively hold your online booking for 60 minutes before payment is due. If payment is not received in this time the booking is cancelled. As mentioned in our Privacy Policy, we use Stripe to process online payments. If you would prefer not to pay via credit card over the internet, you can call the clinic on 0412 370 321 (or +61 412 370 321 internationally) or email: sal@salthenutritionist.com.au and arrange a direct deposit.
Cancellation, Rescheduling & Refund Policy
We require 24 hours-notice via email or phone call if you need to reschedule your consultation, otherwise a fee will be charged. Please note that cancelling via email or phone with less than 24-hours notice will result in 50% of the consultation fee being charged. The remaining 50% of the consultation cost will be held towards a consultation on a future date. No refunds will be given for cancellations with less than 24-hours notice. If you do not show up on the day of the booked consultation, the full fee will be charged.
We understand that sometimes things happen, however, ‘Sal the Nutritionist’ is only open on select days so short-notice cancellations do not allow time for other clients to book. If more than 24-hours notice is given, we can (subject to availability) reschedule your appointment, without any penalty fee being charged. Call the clinic on 0412 370 321 or email: sal@salthenutritionist.com.au to reschedule. Thank you for your understanding.
Online Consultations
Unable to Attend Online Consultation Because of Internet Disruption (& Refund Policy)
If we have an online consultation booked and the internet service becomes disrupted, on your side or ‘Sal the Nutritionist’, to the level that the consultation can no longer continue, we can either continue the consultation via telephone, or, if necessary, reschedule to a more suitable time. If the internet disruption is occurring at ‘Sal the Nutritionist’, and it is not possible for you to reschedule, you will be refunded the full consultation fee.
General Refund Policy
Please note both the ‘Cancellation Policy’ and the ‘Unable to Attend Online Consultation Because of Internet Disruption’ sections above. Generally, refunds will not be given for consultations when less than 24-hours notice was given to cancel or appointments have already taken place. In the event that ‘Sal the Nutritionist’ needs to cancel or reschedule a consultation with you, you will either be given a refund or we can reschedule to a time that suits.
Health Fund Rebates
As a registered nutritionist, a rebate may be available from your private health fund. Please note, if a health fund rebate is available to you, there are no rebates for online/phone consultations. Please contact your individual health fund for more information.
