Loan Times and Overdue Fines
New Releases are due back the following evening at 8.30pm. All other films must be returned after 3 days and before 8.30pm. Any late returns will result in additional charges: £3 per day for New Releases, £1 per day for all other films. All late charges must be paid before any further loan.
Card, Password and Shared Memberships
Your card and password are strictly personal. Proof of I.D. may be requested should you not produce your card. Please do not write your password on your card as if it gets lost or stolen someone else may use your account.
You can add one guest to your account, but you will remain responsible for any person authorised to use your account. Any fees or charges on the account will have to be paid before further loans, regardless of who has incurred them.
Care of DVDs and Viewing Problems
All films remain the property of CLOSE-UP VIDEOS LTD. Once on loan the care of the film becomes the responsibility of the member until the film is returned to the library.
Each DVD returned that presented a viewing problem will be checked by a member of staff. Once checked and if the disc is at fault the DVD will be repaired or replaced (A credit will be given to pay-as-you-go members only). We do not offer refunds. We cannot accept any responsibility for problems associated with playing discs on PCs, or consoles, or the unlikely event of Hardware being damaged while playing our films.
We reserve the right to charge costs incurred in replacing any DVD damaged, lost or stolen while in the member’s care. All films will be charged at the current retail price.
If you are using a PS2 please ensure the console is in a horizontal position rather than vertical, as this can damage discs.
We reserve the right, from time to time, with or without notice to you, to change these Terms and Conditions at our sole discretion.
