No contract is formed until we have confirmed that the Booking has been accepted.
5.3 For the avoidance of doubt, we do not provide transportation services ourselves, and we are not a transportation provider or operator. We act as an intermediary between you and the Supplier only.

12.4 While the Suppliers shall reasonable endeavours to fulfil all Bookings, from time to time for operational reasons or due to forces outside of our reasonable control or that of the relevant Supplier, Services may need to be cancelled or withdrawn. Such cancellations may be made at short notice, although whenever a Service is cancelled in this way we shall use all reasonable endeavours to give you as much notice as we reasonably can. In the event that aBooking is cancelled by us pursuant to this clause 12.4 Zeelo may approve a refund at its discretion.

12.7 In the event that a reimbursement is due to you, we shall arrange for such payment to be made to the same card / bank account as the original payment for which the Booking was made.

12.8 The Supplier may, for operational reasons, need to make changes to the Services between the point that you receive the Booking Acknowledgement and the relevant Services commence.

We shall use our reasonable endeavours to notify you of such changes to Bookings using the contact details provided by you to Zeelo.

13.2 In the event that we suspend your Account, pending further investigation of such breach, if our reason for suspending your account is sufficiently serious and amounts to a material breach of these Terms (including but not limited to a breach of the Conditions of Carriage), we may (i) cancel your Account; and (ii) notify any Suppliers with whom you have a Booking, and each such Supplier may, acting in its sole discretion, cancel any pending Booking and refund you any amounts that you have prepaid in respect of that Booking.
13.3 In the event that we cancel your Account following a material breach of these Terms, all Bookings shall terminate immediately. Depending upon the circumstances, you may be entitled to a refund of all or part of the amount you have paid in connection with any such Bookings in accordance with our cancellation policy.

13.4 In the event that we cancel or the Supplier cancel any Bookings for any reason other than a material breach of the terms of the relevant Contract or these Terms, we shall return to you any funds which we hold in respect of any pending Bookings, provided always that we reserve the right to deduct from such funds an amount equivalent to any monies which are properly due and owed to us or a Supplier.

This structure provides an opt-in ‘follower’ function to enable parents/guardians to receive in-service notifications specific to each child’s travel.

5.1 We operate the Platform only and do not directly provide the Services ourselves. You acknowledge that we act as a disclosed agent of the Suppliers who offer their Services through the Platform.
5.2 After you request a Booking we shall review or process your request. We shall then either accept or reject the Booking, following which you shall receive an e-mail from us confirming acceptance of the Booking (Booking Acknowledgement) acknowledging that we have received your order for Services. No contract is formed until we have confirmed that the Booking has been accepted.
5.3 For the avoidance of doubt, we do not provide transportation services ourselves, and we are not a transportation provider or operator. We act as an intermediary between you and the Supplier only.

12.4 While the Suppliers shall reasonable endeavours to fulfil all Bookings, from time to time for operational reasons or due to forces outside of our reasonable control or that of the relevant Supplier, Services may need to be cancelled or withdrawn. Such cancellations may be made at short notice, although whenever a Service is cancelled in this way we shall use all reasonable endeavours to give you as much notice as we reasonably can.

12.7 In the event that a reimbursement is due to you, we shall arrange for such payment to be made to the same card / bank account as the original payment for which the Booking was made.

We shall use our reasonable endeavours to notify you of such changes to Bookings using the contact details provided by you to Zeelo.

13.2 In the event that we suspend your Account, pending further investigation of such breach, if our reason for suspending your account is sufficiently serious and amounts to a material breach of these Terms (including but not limited to a breach of the Conditions of Carriage), we may (i) cancel your Account; and (ii) notify any Suppliers with whom you have a Booking, and each such Supplier may, acting in its sole discretion, cancel any pending Booking and refund you any amounts that you have prepaid in respect of that Booking.
13.3 In the event that we cancel your Account following a material breach of these Terms, all Bookings shall terminate immediately. Depending upon the circumstances, you may be entitled to a refund of all or part of the amount you have paid in connection with any such Bookings in accordance with our cancellation policy.

13.4 In the event that we cancel or the Supplier cancel any Bookings for any reason other than a material breach of the terms of the relevant Contract or these Terms, we shall return to you any funds which we hold in respect of any pending Bookings, provided always that we reserve the right to deduct from such funds an amount equivalent to any monies which are properly due and owed to us or a Supplier.
