Taxes – Because this is a meal plan, all restaurant-style purchases made on the meal plan are exempt from sales tax.
Carry Over -- All Off-Campus meal plans carry over between Spring and Summer Terms and Fall and Winter Semesters, with the purchase of a Summer and/or Winter meal plan. If a Summer and/or Winter meal plan is not purchased, the following dates have been designated as final access dates, depending upon the contract period. Access ends at midnight on the dates specified: Saturday, December 22, 2007 for Fall Semester; Saturday, April 26, 2008 for Winter Semester; Friday, June 20, 2008 for Spring Term; Saturday, August 16, 2008 for Summer Term.
Terms and Conditions of the Meal Plan Contract – Purchase of a meal plan constitutes a contract with Dining Services. It is binding for the length of time designated for the meal plan. Under the contract, your
rights and privileges are not transferable; they belong exclusively to the contracted
user and may not be transferred or assigned to anyone else on a temporary or
permanent basis.
Cancellation or Change in Meal Plans Purchase of a meal plan constitutes a contract with Dining Services. It is binding for the length of time designated for the meal plan. To change on-campus meal plans please log in to My Housing Account from the On-Campus Housing Home Page. For assistance with on-campus meal plans contact Campus Accommodations at 422-2611.
Off-campus meal plans may be purchased or canceled online thru Route Y. For assistance with off-campus meals plans please visit the Signature Card ID Center, 2310 WSC. When canceling an off-campus meal plan, the refundable portion of the contract price will be deposited to the student's Signature Card account. Cash withdrawals from a Signature Card account may be requested for a maximum of $300 per week in the ID Center, 2310 WSC. There is a $10 fee for any Signature Card account withdrawal. All withdrawals are distributed by check, by mail. The withdrawal process usually takes 1 to 2 weeks depending on mailing address. Please contact the ID Center at 422-3866 if you are canceling your plan due to discontinuation of classes.
Loss or Theft of Cards If an ID card with a meal plan is lost or stolen, it is the contract holder’s responsibility to report the card missing to the Signature Card office. Transactions made on a missing ID card that has not been reported lost or stolen may be the responsibility of the contract holder.
Restrictions – At
Dining Services locations, contracted meal plans are automatically assessed first.
If sufficient funds are not available in a contracted meal plan to satisfy a
transaction, the system will automatically cascade to the Signature Card account.
Following automatic cascading, if an account still does not have sufficient funds
to complete the transaction, the remaining balance will need to be paid with
cash. BYU reserves the right to force your account negative under certain circumstances
and to determine the order in which conflicting contracted meal plans will be
accessed.
Please contact the Dining Services Director's office at (801) 422-4935 with any questions regarding these policies.
