Are they only going to be valid for 12 months? I stupidly ordered some not that long ago after an influx of interest and nothing has ended up coming of it! So now I have 1 left in 1 pack and a brand new pack of 6 untouched. I cant see how I'm going to use these within a year.

They will still be valid beyond 12 months - please log in to 'My PACEY' Products - Q & A (link below) PACEY recommends you update your contracts every 12 months but it is not compulsory

A: Yes, your contracts will be valid. However, we would recommend that you update your contracts annually to ensure that the information contained within is accurate and up-to-date.
Thanks for asking its something I've been wondering also.Quote:

Please NPF reps....maybe you would ask ncma to issue a statement about this or maybe put it on ncma local as an official clarification
what you are saying here differs from advice given by the legal dept and m'ship dept
An official clarification would be greatly appreciated

What I have decided to do is use my ncma contracts 'without a pacey' sticker and that is the end of the debate for me...others will choose to do as they like
In sept when my m'ship comes up for renewal I will take my next step...stay and buy new rebranded contracts or go
I also feel this is a matter for debate in ncma local where the right people can respond directly without sending messages
Thank you for trying to resolve
Simona - each time you talk to the legal department and post I challenge them again. I am getting the same answer from the help and legal line
"whilst it is good practice to review and update your contracts annually, contracts are legally binding until they are cancelled"
Just to say thanks for trying to clarify this issue, you have saved me time and energy!
I have decided to continue with the NCMA ones (without PACEY logo) for existing clients until next January, with a view to having bespoke ones in place with MM PLI thereafter.
Unless of course another (as yet unknown) alternative should appear in the meantime....
I am also using my Ncma contracts which are 3 years old and I am not putting PACEY stickers on themQuote:

In my opinion yesQuote:

It might be good practice also to change the contracts if they are updated like when they went from the 3 page one to the 4 page one. I did this as and when my existing parents changed days or hours so eventually they were all on the new 4 page contracts which was over a year after the Contacts had been printed.
My understanding is that pacey will be doing stickers for those who want to cover the NCMA branding.
Please don't panic.
I agree don't panic and as I understand it at the moment what RS and chatterbox are saying is correctQuote:
