The initial cost for Long Term Freeze is currently £665. This covers up to 4 separate samples (if necessary,) the first year's storage, and a consultation with the Doctor, Counsellor and Cryobank Scientists. After this you will be charged annual renewal fee of £230 (this is subject to annual review). You have the option to pre-pay at a discounted rate for 5 years (£1,240 initial fee + 5 years storage inclusive saving £330) or 10 years - (£1,820 initial fee + 10 years storage, inclusive saving £880). Alternatively, you will be asked to complete a direct debit mandate in order to facilitate payment.

We are also now testing all patients for HIV, Hepatitis B and Hepatitis C in accordance with HFEA recommendations. The cost of this is in addition to the £665 fee and is £299.

If, for any reason, you fail to meet any future payment obligations, you will be notified and your samples will be disposed of three months after the date of that notice if you have not rectified the position. Please refer to our Terms and Conditions for further information.
