How to claim IBMS retired membership fee rate
To claim the IBMS retired membership fee rate you will need to contact us to confirm the start date of your retirement.
Please email subs@ibms.org or write to Membership Team, IBMS, 12 Coldbath Square, London EC1R 5HL, including:
- your full name
- your IBMS membership number
- your retirement start date
What if I retire half way through the year?
The IBMS retired membership fee rate will only be applied to the quarters in the year that you are fully retired.
If you retire half way through a year, then your retired rate membership fee will only be applied for the quarters of the year in which you are fully retired.
If you have paid a full year's membership fee in January and subsequently retire during that year, a refund will be credited to you in accordance with our refunds policy once you have informed us of your retirement.
Please note - we are unable to backdate retired rate subscription fees.
