In those instances where no price or bid have been agreed or placed, Getvan reserves the right to calculate the fee/deposit based on the market value on Getvan. As well as this, Getvan charges a £10 fee to cover administrative costs on all transactions.

The balance payment is payable by the buying party (the buyer) straight to the supplying party (the supplier), and at all times must be handled in accordance with the terms, and in the manner which has been agreed upon by the two involved parties.

2.59 Because the contracts for transportation are decided and formed between suppliers and buyers, the negotiation and agreement of any form of cancellation and the consequences it entails is for those parties to determine. However, a request for the return of a deposit can be made to us if one party cancels before the providing of any transport service. No requests for this return of the deposit should be submitted within seven days of the date on which the bid was accepted, or until other reasonable attempts have been undertaken to agree any cancellation with the parties directly involved.
2.
2.60 All cancellation requests will be reviewed by ourselves. If it is appropriate, the cancelled requirement for transport will be listed again on the site or will be deleted from it. Any fee or deposit can be refunded but will be done so at our discretion. Users have 30 days following the acceptance of the bid to request a return of the deposit fee. Getvan is not to be held liable for any claims outside of this timeframe. There is to be no cash refund supplied once the buyer has received the supplier’s contact details via Getvan. If the supplier should be, for any reason, not able to fulfil the agreed upon service, the buyer is required to contact Getvan in order to find an alternative to the supplier, and only if an alternative is not able to be found will the credit be considered.
