Applied – counts towards earning a VIPerks Membership upgrade in the future;

Allocated – already counted towards the current VIPerks Membership upgrade;

Invalid – this Booking does not count towards a VIPerks Membership upgrade; and Expired – Booking was checked out over 2 years ago and no longer counts towards a VIPerks Membership upgrade. If a BIG4 Member wishes to make any enquiries with regards to his/her Booking History (including, without limitation, rectifying any perceived inaccuracies in the Booking History), they may call the BIG4 National Support office line 1300 738 004.

BIG4 does not guarantee the accuracy of a Booking History.

Once a VIPerks Membership upgrade has been applied

(b)A VIPerks Membership upgrade is applied for 2 years.

(c)If a BIG4 Member with a Perks+ Membership qualifies for a VIPerks Membership upgrade: (i)within 12 months of obtaining a Perks+ Membership or renewing a Perks+ Membership, the Expiry Date will be extended to a date which is 2 years from the date of the upgrade; or (ii)between 12 – 24 months of obtaining a Perks+ Membership or renewing a Perks+ Membership:

(e)There is no difference between the value and benefits attached to a physical Membership Card and a digital Membership Card.

In the absence of any election by the BIG4 Member, a physical Membership Card will be provided.

Nothing in these Terms excludes, restricts or modifies any consumer guarantee, right or remedy conferred on a BIG4 Member by the Australian Consumer Law in Schedule 2 of the Competition and Consumer Act 2010 (Cth) or any other applicable Law that cannot be excluded, restricted or modified by agreement. To the fullest extent permitted by Law, BIG4's liability to a BIG4 Member for a breach of a non-excludable guarantee referred to in clause 11.2 is limited, at BIG4's option, to, in the case of services, any one or more of the following:

(a)the supplying of the services again; or

(b)the payment of the cost of having the services supplied again.

Subject to clauses 11.1 and 11.2, neither BIG4, nor its officers, employees or agents shall be liable to any BIG4 Member for: (a)any tax liability incurred by a BIG4 Member in connection with this Program; (b)any loss or liability resulting from technical errors or issues associated with crediting Booking History onto a BIG4 Account; (c)any loss or liability resulting from communication to any BIG4 Member that is late, lost or misdirected for any reason, including, but not limited to, spam filters operating on a BIG4 Member's email account, being unsubscribed or other system configuration problems; (d)any loss or liability resulting from problems or technical malfunction of any telephone network or lines, computer online systems, servers or providers, computer equipment, software, technical problems or traffic congestion on the internet or at any website or intranet site, or any combination thereof, including (but not limited to) any injury or damage to a BIG4 Member's or any other person's computer related to or resulting from participation in or downloading any materials in the Program.

If a dispute arises between BIG4 and a BIG4 Member out of or in connection with these Terms, including its construction, effect, the rights and obligations of the parties, the performance, breach, rescission or termination of these Terms, the entitlement of any party to damages or compensation (whether for breach of contract, tort or any other cause of action) or the amount of that entitlement (Dispute), the party claiming that a Dispute has arisen must give the other party a notice containing particulars of the Dispute (Dispute Notice). During the period of 5 Business Days from the date that the Dispute Notice is given, or any longer period agreed in writing by BIG4 and the BIG4 Member (Initial Period), each of the parties must use its reasonable endeavours and act in good faith to resolve the Dispute by discussion and negotiation. If the parties are unable to resolve the Dispute within the Initial Period, the Dispute must be referred to the managing director (or their nominee) of BIG4 to resolve with the BIG4 Member. The parties must: (a)meet promptly (and in any event within 5 Business Days) after the Dispute is referred to them; and (b)use their reasonable endeavours and act in good faith in an attempt to resolve the Dispute within 5 Business Days after the Dispute is referred to them or any longer period agreed in writing by the parties.

(a)pay its own costs of complying with this clause 12 and the costs of the Mediator and any other costs of complying with this clause 12 must be shared equally by the parties; and (b)continue to perform their obligations under these Terms while the Dispute is being resolved. No party may commence any judicial proceedings in relation to the Dispute unless:

(a)it has complied with any obligation on it under this clause 12;

(b)those proceedings are commenced for the purpose of enforcing this clause 12 or to seek interlocutory relief; or (c)following the procedures in clauses 12.1 to 12.4 would mean that a limitation period for a cause of action arising from or relating to the Dispute will expire.

No disparagement

BIG4 and BIG4 Members agree not to discredit or disparage each other, in relation to or in connection with any Dispute that may arise between them, these Terms, the Program or any other matter contemplated by these Terms.

General

These Terms contain the entire understanding between the parties concerning the subject matter of these Terms and supersedes, terminates and replaces all prior agreements and communications between the parties concerning that subject matter. Each party acknowledges that, except as expressly stated in these Terms, it has not relied on any representation, warranty, undertaking or statement made by or on behalf of another party in relation to these Terms or its subject matter. Any provision of these Terms which is invalid in any jurisdiction must, in relation to that jurisdiction, be: (a)read down to the minimum extent necessary to achieve its validity, if applicable; and

(b)severed from these Terms in any other case,

Nothing in these Terms may be construed as creating a relationship of partnership, of principal and agent or of trustee and beneficiary. A failure to exercise, a delay in exercising or partially exercising any power, right or remedy conferred on a party by or in respect of these Terms does not operate as a waiver by that party of the power, right or remedy. A single or partial exercise of any power, right or remedy does not preclude a further exercise of it or the exercise of any other power, right or remedy. A waiver of a breach does not operate as a waiver of any other breach. These Terms are governed by and must be construed in accordance with the Laws of Victoria, Australia.
