Terms & Conditions - Simplicity Meal Service

• Parents wishing to purchase Simplicity meals for their children must place their order and make payment a minimum of one full week in advance of the entire week that they require the order. The cut-off point for an entire week's meal order is (for telephone orders - 3.30pm on the Friday a whole week prior to the week that the meals are required for), and for on-line ordering 12 midnight on the Sunday a whole week prior to the week that the meals are required for.  Once a cut-off point for a week has been reached the dates are locked and no further alteration can be made on-line.
  
  Example : If a hot meal is required for any day during week commencing 11 February 2013, the order must be placed and pre-paid either on-line by midnight Sunday 3 February, or alternatively by telephone to the Chartwells office by 3pm Friday 1 February.

• Parents wishing to change their Simplicity meal schedule after placing their order (eg in the event of term time holiday, school trips dates, etc) must make on-line alterations prior to the cut-off point for the week in question (ie minimum 6 working days for the entire week in question). (see separate conditions below governing absence).
  Phone or e-mail cancellations must be made a minimum of five full working days prior to the date of cancellation.

• All Simplicity meals must be paid for in advance unless your child qualifies for Universal Infant Free School Meals.

• In the event of sickness absence from school, Simplicity meals may be cancelled for subsequent days provided Chartwells receive notification by TELEPHONE or E-MAIL.  The number to call is 0208 7514124 or email caroline.plimsoll@compass-group.co.uk.  Because food items for your child have already been purchased you are only able to receive a credit on your account for meals after a 48 hour notice period has been completed from the original notification we receive. 

• Where you have notified Chartwells of your child's absence within the specified time then you will receive a credit for those days that your child is absent from school.

• Please note that cash refunds will not be made.
