Unafraid to tell the Truth
Our founder, Iain Buchan, started The Unlimited 30 years ago as a family business, with the purpose of shifting lives.
Because of this, we treat our customers like family, and as part of our family, we know you need to trust us completely. Like every business, there are things we do well that we’re incredibly proud of. And like every business, we’ve made our fair share of mistakes along the way, and we know there are things we need to get better at.
That's why we're committed to sharing everything that happens at The Unlimited with you – and we mean all of it! The good and the bad, in the most honest way possible.
The Good, The Bad and the Freaken' Awesome!
Making it right when we get it wrong
At The Unlimited, we’re always looking for ways to give our customers more value. As part of our annual pricing reviews, wherever possible, we look for opportunities to add benefits and additional value too.
As part of our 2026 price increase process, an error resulted in a small number of customers having additional benefits added at an additional cost when they shouldn’t have been.
We’re sorry this happened, and we’ve taken action to make it right.
We’ve identified the customers affected and are working to correct their benefits and adjust their pricing accordingly. We’ll be refunding any additional amounts they were incorrectly charged as a result of this error, together with an additional month to cover interest and inconvenience.
Affected customers don’t need to do anything. We’ll contact them directly to explain what happened, what we’ve done to fix it and the refund due to them.
For us, putting customers first means acting quickly when something isn’t right - identifying it, fixing it and making sure our customers are taken care of.
