The BMW MOA understands that issues can arise in anyone’s life. We also understand that planning, organizing and staffing a large member organization as well as several events each year takes months of preparation. In the interests of balancing the best interests of all involved we maintain these refund policies.

BMW MOA MEMBERSHIP FEES

There are no full or partial refunds for membership fees. This includes all levels of Membership as well as services attached to a Membership, such as Roadside coverage.

BMW MOA EVENTS INCLUDING GETAWAYS AND NATIONAL RALLY

Event fees are refundable if cancelled 30 days or more prior to the event. Cancellations less than 30 days prior to the event will receive a voucher for a future MOA event, if the cancellation is due to one of the covered reasons listed below. Optional Event Fee Refund Protection is available for purchase during the registration process and will provide a cash refund for cancellations less than 30 days prior to the event due to a covered reason. No refunds in cash or as a voucher will be given after the event unless the Event Fee Refund Protection is purchased and a covered circumstance occurs. 

Requests for refunds will be processed by BMW MOA. Claims must be submitted within 30 days of the end of the event. If you decide not to use the registration insurance, there are absolutely no cash refunds of event fees for cancellations less than 30 days prior to the event.

EVENT FEE REFUND PROTECTION OPTIONS

Events that offer optional Event Fee Refund Protection provide for the member to receive a refund if the optional protection is purchased and the cancellation is the result of one of the reasons listed below.

The death, injury, or illness happening to the attendee or exhibitor, a member of their immediate family, or any person(s) in the group due to attend the event with the attendee or exhibitor;

• Adverse weather including snow, frost, fog or storm where the Police service or other local Government agency have issued road closures along the path of travel to the event;
• Mechanical breakdown, accident, fire or theft in route of a private vehicle taking the attendee or exhibitor to this event;
• Jury Duty which the attendee or exhibitor was unaware of at the time of registration;
• The attendee or exhibitor being summoned to appear at court proceedings as a witness which they were unaware of at the time of registration;
• Burglary or fire at the residence of the attendee or exhibitor in the forty-eight (48) hours immediately before this event that required attendance of the emergency services;
• The attendee or exhibitor being a member of the armed forces and being posted overseas unexpectedly;
• Unexpected disruption of the public transport networks the attendee or exhibitor could not have reasonably known about before the date or time of this event;
• The attendee or exhibitor being relocated for work more than one hundred (100) miles from the work location which they were unaware of at the time of booking, or they are unexpectedly terminated from their job.

This insurance coverage starts the moment you pay your registration fee. This insurance coverage ends upon the the first day of the event. Claims must be submitted within 30 days of the end of the event.
