Short answer. On a weekly plan the draft rules ask for a reminder before the renewal payment at each six-month mark from sign-up, plus the sign-up notices.
Weekly billing renews fast but the reminder duty is the same as monthly: every six months, not every week.
- The six-month mark may not land on a payment day, so the reminder goes before the first payment on or after it.
- A weekly trial can be shorter than your reminder window.
Worked example: Weekly plan
A customer who signs up on 1 June 2027 and pays £5 every week.
| Date | Notice | What it covers |
|---|---|---|
| 1 June 2027 | Full contract information | At sign-up |
| 1 June 2027 | Cooling-off notice | Cooling-off ends 15 June 2027 |
| 30 November 2027 | Six-monthly reminder | Payment of £5.00 on 7 December 2027 |
| 30 May 2028 | Six-monthly reminder | Payment of £5.00 on 6 June 2028 |
| 28 November 2028 | Six-monthly reminder | Payment of £5.00 on 5 December 2028 |

Timings use our suggested defaults. The law doesn't fix the number of days; you choose a window and state it at checkout.
Questions
Do I remind every week?
No. A reminder before the payment at each six-month mark is the draft requirement.
