Terms and Conditions

By accepting any of our services, you agree to be bound by these terms and conditions.

Payment Terms

Payment terms for IT support are strictly according to the invoice. In most cases this is 14 days from the invoice date but may be reduced for certain services.

 

Payment terms for bespoke software, website and search engine optimization work are strictly 50% on placement of order and 50% immediately on completion.

 

Payment terms for internet services, retail software and hardware are payable in advance unless otherwise stated by a signed agreement between both parties and we reserve the right to cancel or suspend any services for any bills that remain unpaid when due. We will not be held responsible for any client's loss of business, goodwill or any liability resulting from the termination of any such services. We also reserve the right to suspend any services if bills are also outstanding from any customer's subsidiary or other owned businesses.

 

 

Any hardware, bespoke software, retail software, domain names, websites etc. remain the property of Gordon Bennett Technologies Ltd. until paid for.

Termination of accounts

E.g. for weekly payments, one week's notice; for monthly payments, one month's notice etc. For annual payments, this notice period may sometimes be waived by agreement with Gordon Bennett Technologies Ltd.

 

The notice period required to terminate a hosting account is two months before the next bill is due for the account. The billing period is the same period as that selected at the commencement of the hosting account. A request to terminate a hosting account must be received in writing.

 

N.B. No refunds are given for partial periods.
