5. Online payment for HughesNet Global
Education
HCIL provides
through internet access, the facility to pay the
fee installments for various interactive courses
conducted on the nationwide interactive learning
network
( HughesNet Global Education ). Following are
the important points for the users to remember
regarding the online payment facility :
1) User of
this online payment system has to be either a
registered student or a prospective student of
some program on the HNGE platform. The registered
student posses a student id issued by HNGE
2) The student needs to pay only through the credit
card, which he has declared while registering
for the program. This card no has a mapping with
the student id entered while accessing the online
payment facility. A different card no will result
in failure to access the payment gateway
3) HCIL has a tie-up with ICICI bank for facilitation
of this service and hence the transaction would
be completed thru the ICICI payment gateway
4) Before qualifying to be taken to payment gateway,
the student needs to get authenticated as a valid
student thru a student authentication page on
HCIL website
5) Student needs to pay the exact amount as required
by HNGE, keeping in mind the late fees like transfer
fee, rejoining fees so that the student id does
not get blocked because of short payments
6) HCIL has opted for 3D secure system of VISA
/ MASTER credit cards and hence the student would
be once more authenticated before the actual transaction
takes place
7) The transaction charges as levied by the respective
bank would be applicable as per the user agreement
with the bank which has issued the credit card
8) Once the payment has been received by HNGE,
the receipt of the payment would be available
to the student thru the Student Management System,
which is described in the student manual provided
to the student during induction to the course
9) Up to date details of all student payments
would be available on the student management system
and the student can approach the center heads
to know the status of their payments due.
6.
Cancellation and Refund policy
For online
payments, cancellation is not possible on the
Internet. To cancel a fee payment, the student
will have to submit the claim with HCIL in Gurgaon
or write a mail to customercare@hughes.in The
fee paid by the student will be refunded electronically
(as credit to the relevant credit card / account
used for the transaction) after deducting cancellation
charges. Bank charges that are being levied by
the Payment Gateways/Banks are not subject to
refund in the event of cancellation of transaction
by the student. The cancellation charge is determined
by the HNGE’s rules for cancellation and is based
on the time of cancellation and the status of
the fee payment. The service charge is not refunded.
