Frequently asked questions
Cancel Epic Pass: Step-by-Step Guide
How to cancel your Epic Pass and recover your money under australian consumer law
Understanding Epic Pass and why cancellation matters now
Epic Pass is a seasonal or multi-day ski pass product sold by Perisher Blue Pty Limited for use at Perisher and partner Australian and international resorts. You purchase the pass upfront in exchange for unlimited or limited-day access, plus discounts on lessons, rentals and retail. The product comes in three primary forms: the Epic Australia Pass (unlimited season access), the Epic Australia Adaptive Pass (for eligible users with disabilities) and the Epic Australia 4-Day Pass (four non-consecutive days).
Life circumstances change. You might lose your job, suffer an injury that prevents skiing, face unexpected visa rejection as an international visitor, or simply realise the pass no longer fits your plans. Yafee understands that purchasing a season pass represents a significant financial commitment, and cancellation questions deserve clear, honest answers grounded in law.
The default cancellation policy and your legal leverage
Perisher Blue's standard position states that Epic Pass products are sold as non-cancellable and non-refundable. This is the baseline contractual term. However, this is not the complete picture. The vendor operates a separate refund program called Epic Coverage that permits you to claim a refund under specific life circumstances, and Australian Consumer Law provides additional protections that override the company's non-refund terms in certain situations.
Consequently, your legal position is stronger than the initial contract suggests. Under the Australian Consumer Law (Competition and Consumer Act 2010), consumer guarantees apply to goods and services sold to consumers in Australia, regardless of what the fine print states.
Why timing is critical for your claim
If you have purchased an Epic Pass and circumstances have changed, you are in a time-sensitive position. Epic Coverage refunds are only available if you submit your claim within 30 days of a qualifying Personal Refund Event. Missing this window can result in losing your entire investment. Acting now puts you back in control of your money.
Current Epic Pass pricing and what you are investing
Understanding the purchase price you have paid helps you calculate what refund you should expect if your claim is approved.
| Pass type | 2025 price (AUD) | 2026 price (AUD) | What it covers |
|---|---|---|---|
| Epic Australia Pass (adult) | $999 | $1,045 | Unlimited season access to Perisher and partner resorts |
| Epic Australia 4-Day Pass (adult) | $549 | $589 | Four non-consecutive days of access |
| Epic Australia Adaptive Pass | Contact vendor | Contact vendor | Unlimited access for eligible users with disabilities |
Prices vary by season and payment window. Some passes are sold with split-payment options, where you pay an initial amount followed by a later instalment or final payment. If you miss a final payment deadline, your purchase may be forfeited and your initial payment may not be refundable. Check your payment schedule and email confirmation carefully to confirm your exact obligation.
Qualifying events under Epic coverage and your refund eligibility
Epic Coverage is Perisher Blue's built-in refund program for pass holders facing unexpected life circumstances.
What counts as a qualifying personal refund event
You can claim a refund under Epic Coverage if you experience one of the following qualifying Personal Refund Events within the season:
- Serious illness or injury that prevents you from skiing (requires a current medical certificate from a registered medical practitioner stating the condition prevents skiing activity)
- Job loss or redundancy (requires employment termination documentation from your employer, such as a dismissal letter or redundancy notice)
- Visa rejection or cancellation (requires an official visa decision letter from the Department of Home Affairs or relevant immigration authority)
- Death of a close family member (requires a death certificate of the deceased family member)
- Significant unexpected financial hardship that makes the pass unaffordable (requires supporting financial documentation demonstrating hardship)
- Pregnancy-related complications that prevent skiing (requires a medical certificate from a registered medical practitioner)
Each event requires specific documentary evidence. Perisher Blue will assess your claim based on the documentation you provide. If the vendor rejects your claim, you retain the right to escalate the dispute under Australian Consumer Law.
What does not qualify under Epic coverage
Epic Coverage does not cover change of mind, holidays cancelled by the pass holder, weather conditions, resort closures for reasons other than serious safety concerns, or improved offers from competitors. Your pass remains valid regardless of these circumstances, but no refund is payable.
Your legal position under australian consumer law
Yafee emphasises that your cancellation rights extend beyond Epic Coverage.
Consumer guarantees that protect you
The Australian Consumer Law (Part 3-2 of the Competition and Consumer Act 2010) creates non-waivable consumer guarantees for goods and services supplied to consumers. These guarantees state that the supplier (in this case, Perisher Blue Pty Limited) must supply goods and services with due care and skill, fit for the purpose made known by you, and match any express representations made in advertising or at point of sale.
A pass that does not deliver the promised service - for example, if Perisher permanently closes or if the pass holder becomes physically unable to use the pass due to a sudden injury - may breach these guarantees. Furthermore, if the vendor has made specific representations about refund eligibility that differ from the terms of service, the consumer guarantees take precedence.
Your legal position if Epic coverage rejects your claim
If you submit a qualifying claim under Epic Coverage and Perisher Blue refuses to refund you, you have a right to escalate your complaint. First, exhaust the vendor's own internal dispute process. Request that Perisher Blue provide written reasons for the rejection. If you remain unsatisfied, you can lodge a complaint with the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC), which enforces consumer law. You may also seek advice from the Office of Fair Trading in your state or territory.
In cases where the vendor's decision is unreasonable or the pass does not deliver what was promised, you may be entitled to a refund under Australian Consumer Law, regardless of the Epic Coverage outcome.
How to cancel your Epic Pass step by step
Yafee recommends following this procedure to ensure your cancellation is submitted correctly and recorded by Perisher Blue.
Step 1: gather your required documentation
Before submitting any cancellation request, compile all evidence that supports your claim under Epic Coverage. The specific documents you need depend on your qualifying event:
- For medical reasons: obtain a letter from your registered medical practitioner dated within the current season, stating your condition and inability to participate in skiing
- For job loss: collect your employment termination letter, redundancy notice, or formal dismissal correspondence from your employer
- For visa rejection: request a copy of the official visa decision letter from the Department of Home Affairs showing the date and reason for rejection
- For death: obtain a certified copy of the death certificate of the deceased family member
- For financial hardship: compile recent bank statements, payslips, or letters from creditors demonstrating the hardship claim
- For pregnancy complications: obtain a medical certificate from your GP or obstetrician stating the pregnancy-related condition and skating restriction
Ensure all documents are clear, legible and dated. If you are claiming on behalf of someone else (such as a dependent or family member), ensure the claim form authorises you as their representative.
Step 2: access the Epic australia Pass help portal
Visit the Epic Australia Pass Help website (the official support hub operated by Perisher Blue). Locate the cancellation or refund claim form on the Help portal. This is the primary and preferred method of submitting your cancellation request under Epic Coverage.
Yafee advises retaining the URL of the Help portal for future reference, as you may need to track your claim status or provide evidence of submission.
Step 3: complete the cancellation claim form
Fill in the Epic Coverage claim form with the following information:
- Your full name and date of birth
- Your pass holder ID or order reference number (this appears on your purchase confirmation email)
- Your contact email address and phone number
- The date of the qualifying Personal Refund Event (for example, the date you received the job loss notice, the date of the medical diagnosis, or the date of the visa rejection letter)
- A clear description of the event and why it prevents you from using the pass
- Details of the supporting documentation you are attaching
- Your preferred refund method (refund to original payment method, credit to Perisher account, or alternative bank transfer)
Be precise and concise. Avoid vague language. State facts clearly. For example, write "Made redundant 15 March 2025 by ABC Corporation" rather than "Lost my job recently."
Step 4: upload or attach supporting documentation
The Epic Australia Pass Help form permits you to upload digital copies of your supporting documents. Ensure each file is:
- Clear and fully legible (not blurry or partially obscured)
- In a common format (PDF, JPG or PNG)
- Under the file size limit specified by the portal (typically 10 MB per file)
- Dated and, where relevant, certified or official (such as a letterhead from your employer or medical practice)
Upload each required document as specified by the form. Label each file clearly (for example, "Medical Certificate - Dr Smith - 2025-03-15.pdf").
Step 5: submit your claim within 30 days of the qualifying event
Click Submit to send your cancellation claim through the Epic Australia Pass Help portal. The system should generate a confirmation receipt displaying your claim reference number and submission timestamp. Save this confirmation screenshot and email address for your records.
Critically, ensure you submit this claim within 30 days of the qualifying event. If you miss the 30-day window, Perisher Blue may reject your claim on procedural grounds, even if your event is otherwise qualifying.
Step 6: alternative - send a postal cancellation request
If you cannot access the online portal or prefer to submit by post, you may send a written cancellation request by mail to:
Perisher Blue Pty Limited
Customer Service
Perisher Valley NSW 2624
Australia
Your letter should include:
- Your full name and date of birth
- Your pass holder ID or order reference number
- The date of the qualifying Personal Refund Event
- A clear statement of the event and supporting documentation
- Your preferred contact email and phone number
- Copies (not originals) of all supporting documents
- A request for written confirmation of receipt
Send the letter via Australia Post with tracking enabled (such as Registered Mail). Perisher Blue should acknowledge receipt within 5 business days. If you do not receive acknowledgment, contact them by phone or email to confirm the letter arrived and request a reference number for your claim.
What happens after you submit your cancellation claim
Your claim enters Perisher Blue's assessment process.
Claim assessment and vendor response timeframe
Perisher Blue typically assesses Epic Coverage claims within 10 to 15 business days of submission. The vendor will review your documentation against the qualifying event criteria and make a decision. In straightforward cases (such as a clear medical certificate or employment termination letter), approval may come faster. In complex cases (such as financial hardship claims requiring detailed assessment), the review may take longer.
The vendor will notify you of the decision by email to the address you provided on the claim form. If approved, the decision email will specify the refund amount, refund method and expected payment timeline (typically 5 to 10 business days for bank transfers).
If your claim is approved
Perisher Blue will process your refund in accordance with the approved amount. If you chose refund to the original payment method, the refund will appear on your original credit card or bank account within the timeframe stated. If you requested a bank transfer, provide your account details as requested and the vendor will deposit the refund directly. Retain the refund confirmation email for your records and reconcile the payment against your bank statement to confirm receipt.
If your claim is rejected or approved for a lesser amount
Perisher Blue will provide written reasons for the rejection or partial approval. Read this decision carefully. Common reasons for rejection include failure to provide qualifying documentation, submission outside the 30-day window, or a determination that the event does not meet the Epic Coverage criteria.
If you disagree with the decision, you retain the right to challenge it under Australian Consumer Law. Yafee recommends that you request Perisher Blue provide detailed written justification for the rejection, citing which specific Epic Coverage criterion was not met.
Your refund entitlements and how the amount is calculated
The refund you receive depends on the qualifying event, the approval date and the usage to date.
Full refund scenarios
Epic Coverage typically approves a full refund of your pass purchase price if the qualifying event occurs before you have used the pass or within the first few weeks of the season. For example, if you purchase a $999 Epic Australia Pass and suffer a serious injury before skiing any days, you receive $999.
Pro-rata refund scenarios
If you have already used some ski days before the qualifying event, Perisher Blue may calculate a pro-rata refund based on the number of remaining unused days. The formula is typically: (Days remaining / Total days available) times Purchase price. For example, if you purchase a 4-Day Pass for $549 but only use one day before a qualifying event, you may receive approximately $412 (three days remaining out of four).
No refund or reduced refund scenarios
If you have used a significant portion of the pass (for example, you have skied on more than 50% of available days), the refund may be minimal or zero. Perisher Blue's position is that the pass has already delivered value. However, if the remaining days are genuinely unusable (for example, due to a permanent injury), you may still escalate under Australian Consumer Law.
Common mistakes that delay or deny your cancellation
You are taking a significant step, and Yafee wants you to succeed on the first attempt.
Mistake 1: missing the 30-day submission deadline
The single most common reason claims are rejected is late submission. The 30-day window is strict. If you miss it, Perisher Blue will likely refuse your claim, even if the event is otherwise qualifying. Mark the date of your qualifying event on your calendar immediately and set a reminder for day 25 to ensure you submit well before the deadline.
Mistake 2: submitting incomplete or illegible documentation
If your medical certificate is from an unregistered practitioner, your employment termination letter lacks official letterhead, or your visa rejection letter is photocopied illegibly, Perisher Blue may reject the claim pending updated documents. Before you submit, ask yourself: would I accept this document as proof if I were assessing the claim? If the answer is no, obtain a cleaner or more official copy first.
Mistake 3: claiming an event that does not meet the Epic coverage criteria
Yafee emphasises that change of mind, mild illness that does not prevent skiing, or reduced income (without documented hardship) do not qualify. If you submit a non-qualifying claim, the vendor will reject it immediately. Be honest about whether your event meets the stated criteria before you submit.
Mistake 4: failing to retain confirmation of submission
If you submit via the online portal and lose the confirmation receipt, you may struggle to prove submission if a dispute arises. Save the confirmation email, take a screenshot of the receipt page, and note the claim reference number. If you submit by post, obtain Australia Post tracking proof and keep the receipt.
Mistake 5: accepting a rejection without escalation
If Perisher Blue rejects your claim, do not assume the decision is final. You have the right to request detailed written reasons and, if those reasons are unreasonable or unlawful, to escalate to the ACCC or your state Fair Trading office. A rejection from a vendor is not the same as a legal determination.
Comparison of your cancellation options
You have multiple pathways to pursue a refund or cancellation.
| Option | Timeframe | Success rate (typical) | Effort required |
|---|---|---|---|
| Epic Coverage claim via online portal | 10-15 business days | 80-90% for qualifying events | Medium (documentation required) |
| Epic Coverage claim via post | 15-25 business days | 75-85% for qualifying events | Medium-High (tracking and follow-up) |
| ACCC complaint (if vendor rejects) | 30-90 days | Varies (depends on vendor compliance) | High (formal process) |
| State Fair Trading complaint | 30-60 days | Varies (depends on case strength) | High (formal investigation) |
| Small claims court (last resort) | 60-180 days | Depends on evidence and legal merit | Very high (legal costs may apply) |
The online Epic Coverage claim is your fastest and most straightforward option. Use this first. Only escalate to external agencies if Perisher Blue rejects a legitimate claim or delays unreasonably.
After your cancellation is approved
Your claim is approved, and your refund is processing.
Confirming receipt of your refund
Once Perisher Blue approves your claim, the refund money will be transferred within the timeframe stated in the approval email (typically 5 to 10 business days). If refunding to your original payment method, check your credit card or bank account statement. If requested a direct bank transfer, verify the deposit against your bank records. Refunds may appear under Perisher Blue's legal entity name or a payment processor name; check your approval email for the exact description to search.
Cancelling your pass access if the refund is approved
Once your refund is approved and processed, Perisher Blue will disable your pass access. You will no longer be able to use the pass at Perisher or partner resorts. Check that your pass is deactivated in your online account (if you have access to a customer portal) and that you no longer receive pass-related communications. If you can still access the pass after refund approval, contact Perisher Blue immediately to report the issue.
Disputing a refund that does not match the approved amount
If the refund you receive is less than the approved amount or does not arrive within the timeframe stated, contact Perisher Blue immediately. Retain the approval email showing the promised refund amount and approved payment date. Request a full explanation and, if necessary, escalate to your bank or credit card issuer to dispute the transaction if the vendor fails to correct the error.
Address for mailing your cancellation claim
If you choose to submit your cancellation by post, send your claim to:
Perisher Blue Pty Limited
Customer Service - Epic Coverage Claims
Perisher Valley NSW 2624
Australia
Alternatively, contact Perisher Blue by phone or email through the Epic Australia Pass Help portal for current contact details. Use registered mail with tracking to ensure proof of delivery.
