QwikPass Unlimited

1. QwikPass-Unlimited provides unlimited washes for a pre-determined monthly fee based on the service(s) selected during enrollment.

2. Members’ monthly fees will automatically be billed to their form of payment on their monthly anniversary date. A member’s monthly anniversary date is the day of enrollment in the plan.

3. Membership will automatically renew each month unless the member cancels their QwikPass-Unlimited enrollment.

4. No refunds will be issued for early cancellation. Upon cancellation, members will retain access to all QwikPass-Unlimited benefits until their next monthly anniversary date.

5. Plan changes (upgrades, downgrades, cancellations) are “pending” and will take effect on the next monthly anniversary date.

6. QwikPass-Unlimited members have the opportunity to add additional services not included in their monthly wash plan each time they wash. In the event that additional services are added, the amount of those additional services not included in the customer’s unlimited monthly wash fees will be charged to the method of payment provided by the member immediately following the wash in which the charges occurred. Based on the availability of the wash transaction data these charges could take up to 96 hours to be posted to the member’s method of payment.

7. The member will be notified by email of any price changes at least ten (10) calendar days before the next monthly fee is to be charged.

8. QwikPass-Unlimited offers Charlie’s greatest discount to frequent washers, and therefore cannot be used with coupons or other discount offers.

9. If QwikPass-Unlimited member enrolls during a limited time promotion such as 2nd Month Free, Charlie’s reserves the right to not honor this promotion for a customer who is suspended for lack of payment or has violated the terms and conditions set forth here.

10. Membership is only valid on the vehicle enrolled. The RFID tag installed by Charlie’s must not be removed. Any QwikPass-Unlimited customer found to have removed their tag will be in violation of these terms and Charlie’s will immediately terminate the account. Furthermore, the member agrees to reimburse Charlie’s for any services provided using an RFID tag which was not registered to the vehicle the services were performed on.

 

QwikPass Auto-Pay

1. QwikPass-Auto-Pay provides members the opportunity to establish an account with Charlie’s and store a method of payment with their account. Each time a QwikPass-Auto-Pay member visits Charlie’s they may select the service(s) of their choice and Charlie’s will charge the method of payment on file following the wash. Based on the availability of the wash transaction data these charges could take up to 96 hours to be posted to the member’s account.

2. QwikPass-Auto-Pay members are charged only when they visit Charlie’s and for the services they choose. There are no inherent discounts provided to QwikPass-Auto-Pay members and therefore they may use coupons for discounted wash services (coupons only accepted in the Attended Lane).

 

Plan Suspensions / Resolution of Unpaid Balances

When the Charlie’s system attempts to charge a member’s method of payment and the charge is unsuccessful, Charlie’s will immediately suspend the member’s account until payment of the balance due can be successfully processed. Charlie’s will notify the member by email if an account is suspended and the steps the member can take to resolve the suspension. The primary way to resolve a suspension is for the member to access their account and update their method of payment using the customer website. When a member updates their method of payment, all outstanding charges will attempt to be processed, if all outstanding charges are successfully processed the member’s suspension will be removed. Charlie’s will also attempt to collect the outstanding charges using the member’s method of payment up to 4 additional times. If any of the additional attempts are successful in obtaining payment the suspension will be removed and the member will be notified via email. A member with a suspended account will not be able to use their QwikPass-Unlimited or QwikPass-Auto-Pay plan. If a member on a suspended plan visits Charlie’s they must provide payment at the time of wash. In the event a member cancels their plan or does not provide a valid method of payment after 60 days following suspension, Charlie’s reserves the right to utilize a collection agency to attempt collection of the balance due to Charlie’s.
