An appropriate refund policy will be developed and advertised by each organising body, whether an affiliated Property Investors’ Association or the NZPIF, for each event held. Refund of a membership fee will be the responsibility of each affiliated Property Investors’ Association and will be undertaken according to the Constitution or Executive Committee decision of that Association.
The authority to accept a return of merchandise and payment of a refund will remain with the Property Investors’ Association, which has sold the merchandise, and will be specified in their Executive Committee minutes. If the NZPIF has sold the merchandise, the NZPIF Office in Christchurch has the authority to accept the return of merchandise and make a refund payment, if the merchandise is returned within 7 days of purchase.
