Ear Wax Removal – Terms & Conditions

Appointment Fee

The fee for ear wax removal is £69 and is payable at the initial appointment.
 

Follow-Up Appointments

In most cases, ear wax removal is successfully completed during the first visit. However, where further treatment is required, follow-up appointments relating to the same episode of care will be provided at no additional charge.
 

Free Hearing Check

A complimentary hearing check may be provided during your appointment if clinically appropriate or requested by the patient.
 

Suitability for Treatment

Ear wax removal is subject to clinical suitability. In some cases, treatment may not be possible or may need to be postponed due to factors including, but not limited to:
 
  • Ear infections
     
  • Excessive sensitivity or unable to sit for procedure
     
  • Medical contraindications
     
Where treatment cannot proceed safely, appropriate advice will be provided.
 

Results of Treatment

While we aim to remove ear wax successfully during treatment, complete wax removal cannot be guaranteed in every case and may depend on the condition of the ear canal and wax build-up.
 

Cancellation Policy

We kindly ask for at least 24 hours’ notice for cancellations or appointment changes where possible.

Home Visits

Additional charges may apply for home visit appointments.
 
 
 

Hearing Aid Terms & Conditions

Hearing Aid Deposit

A £200 deposit is required at the time of ordering hearing aids.
 

Balance Payment

The remaining balance is payable at the hearing aid fitting/collection appointment.
 

60-Day Money-Back Guarantee

Audiocare offers a 60-day money-back guarantee for patients who are unable to tolerate or adapt to their hearing aids.
 
The 60-day period begins from the date of the initial hearing aid fitting.
 
If a patient is unable to continue with the hearing aids due to non-tolerance or difficulty adapting to them, the hearing aids may be returned to Audiocare within 60 days of fitting.
 

Refund Terms

Where hearing aids are returned within the 60-day guarantee period:
 
  • The hearing aids must be returned in full, including all accessories and chargers supplied.
     
  • Payments made towards the hearing aids will be refunded excluding the initial £200 deposit.
     
The £200 deposit is non-refundable and contributes towards:
 
  • Clinical appointment time
  • Hearing aid ordering and administration
  • Custom consumables, parts, and manufacturer costs which cannot be credited
     

Exclusions

The 60-day money-back guarantee applies only where a patient is unable to tolerate or adapt to the hearing aids.
 
The guarantee does not apply in circumstances including, but not limited to:
  • Loss or damage of hearing aids
  • Failure to attend follow-up appointments where clinically recommended
  • Patient death
No refunds or returns will be accepted after the 60-day period under any circumstances.
 

Warranty

All hearing aids supplied by Audiocare include manufacturer warranty cover. Warranty periods may vary depending on manufacturer and hearing aid model.
 

Aftercare

Unlimited aftercare appointments are included during the hearing aid warranty period.
 
This includes:
  • Hearing aid adjustments
  • Programming changes
  • Routine maintenance
  • Advice and support appointments

Home Visit Aftercare

After the initial fitting and settling-in period, home visit aftercare appointments may be subject to a call-out charge.

Annual Hearing Review

We recommend an annual hearing review to monitor hearing levels and hearing aid performance. Annual reviews are included free of charge during the warranty period.
 

Hearing Aid Performance

Successful hearing aid use varies between individuals and depends on factors including hearing loss type, consistent use, realistic expectations, and adaptation time.

Loss or Damage

Loss, accidental damage, or damage caused through misuse or negligence may not be covered under manufacturer warranty. Additional repair or replacement charges may apply.
 
We recommend contacting your home insurance provider when your hearing aids are first fitted, as many insurers are able to add hearing aids to contents insurance policies without issue.
 
Audiocare can provide serial numbers and supporting documentation if required by your insurance provider.

 

Refer a Friend – Terms & Conditions

Effective from 1st November 2026

1. Eligibility

The Audiocare Refer a Friend Scheme applies to qualifying referrals made from 1st November 2026 onwards. The person making the referral must have previously purchased hearing aids from Audiocare.

2. Referral Must Be Declared at Booking

To qualify, the person being referred must inform Audiocare at the time of booking their initial appointment that they have been referred through our Refer a Friend Scheme. They must provide the full name of the person who referred them.

3. Referral Must Be Recorded

The referral must be clearly recorded on the new patient’s file at the time the appointment is booked. Referrals cannot be added retrospectively after the appointment has been booked.

4. £100 Reward for the Referrer

The person making the referral will receive £100 for each qualifying new patient who purchases hearing aids from Audiocare and retains them for at least 60 days.

The £100 referral reward applies regardless of which hearing aid range the referred patient purchases, including both Essential and Premium ranges.

The reward is £100 per qualifying patient, not per hearing aid purchased.

5. Claiming Your £100 Reward

Once the referred patient has purchased and retained their hearing aids for at least 60 days, the person making the referral must telephone Audiocare to request their £100 reward.

Audiocare will verify that the qualifying purchase has been completed, the hearing aids have been retained for the required period and all referral conditions have been met before arranging payment.

Referral rewards are not issued automatically. It is the responsibility of the referrer to contact Audiocare after the 60-day period to claim their £100 payment.

Important: The referral must have been declared and recorded on the patient’s file at the time their initial appointment was booked. If the referral was not recorded at that stage, it will not qualify for the scheme, and no £100 referral reward will be payable. Referrals cannot be added retrospectively.

6. Unlimited Referrals

There is no limit to the number of qualifying referrals an individual can make.

A £100 reward is payable for each separate qualifying referral. For example, five successful referrals would entitle the referrer to £500, subject to these terms and conditions.

7. £100 Discount for the Referred Patient

The referred patient will also receive £100 off their hearing aid purchase, provided they purchase hearing aids from one of Audiocare’s four Premium hearing aid ranges.

8. Premium Range Discount Only

The £100 discount for the referred patient is available exclusively on Audiocare’s Premium hearing aid ranges.

It does not apply to Essential, entry-level or budget hearing aids.

This restriction does not affect the referrer’s entitlement to receive their £100 reward, which applies regardless of the hearing aid range purchased.

9. Cannot Be Combined with Other Offers

The referred patient’s £100 Premium hearing aid discount cannot be combined with any other discount, promotion, special offer or promotional pricing.

10. Returned or Refunded Hearing Aids

If the referred patient returns their hearing aids within the 60-day money-back guarantee period or receives a refund, no referral reward will be payable.

The referral reward becomes eligible for payment only once the referred patient has retained their hearing aids for at least 60 days and all qualifying conditions have been satisfied.

11. One Referral per New Patient

Only one person can be named as the referrer for each qualifying new patient.

The £100 referral reward is payable once per qualifying patient purchase, regardless of whether the patient purchases one or two hearing aids.

The person making the referral must have previously purchased hearing aids from Audiocare to be eligible for the reward.

12. Scheme Administration

Audiocare reserves the right to verify all referrals and qualifying purchases before issuing any referral rewards.

Audiocare reserves the right to amend, suspend or withdraw the Refer a Friend Scheme at any time. Any changes will not affect rewards already earned under the scheme.
