Illinois Code § 20

§ 20.

Cancellation and refund requirements. (a) Every contract for dating referral services shall provide the following: (1) That the contract may be cancelled by the customer within 3 business days after the first business day after the contract is signed by the customer, and that all monies paid under the contract shall be refunded to the customer. For the purposes of this Section, "business day" means any day on which the facility is open for business. A customer purchasing a plan at a facility that has not yet opened for business at the time the contract is signed, or who does not purchase a contract at an existing facility, shall have 7 calendar days in which to cancel the contract and receive a full refund of all monies paid. The customer's rights to cancel described in this Section are in addition to any other contract rights or remedies provided by law. (2) In the event of the relocation of a customer's residence to a location that is more than 20 miles farther than the original distance from the customer's residence to the original enterprise, and upon the failure of the original enterprise to designate an enterprise, with comparable facilities and services within 25 miles of the customer's new residence that agrees to accept the original enterprise's obligations under the contract, the customer may cancel the contract and shall be liable for only that portion of the charges allocable to the time before reasonable evidence of the relocation is presented to the enterprise, plus a reasonable fee if so provided in the contract, but the fee shall not exceed 10% of the unused balance, or $50, whichever is less. (3) If the customer dies during the term of the contract, the customer's estate shall be liable for only that portion of the charges allocable to the time before the customer's death. The enterprise shall have the right to require and verify reasonable evidence of the death. (b) Every contract for dating referral services shall provide that notice of cancellation under subsection (a) of this Section shall be made in writing and delivered by certified or registered mail to the enterprise at the address specified in the contract. All refunds to which a customer or his or her estate is entitled shall be made within 30 days of receipt by the enterprise of the cancellation notice. (Source: P.A. 98-756, eff. 7-16-14.)
