Our charges for the supply of the goods and/or services are set out per order. They are in GBP pounds sterling. Please note that VAT at the applicable rate will be be added to our charges. If we have agreed to supply services at our standard day rate, this constitutes 71⁄2 hours’ labour, including travelling to and from your premises but excluding statutory breaks. If we supply more than 71⁄2 hours’ labour in a day, we may charge you for any extra time at the rate of £106.00 per hour, in 1⁄4 hour units rounded up to the nearest 1⁄4 hour. In addition to our charges you must pay all our out of pocket expenses, including travel (at the rate of 45p per mile if we travel by car), accommodation and subsistence costs.
5. When our charges may change
If you request additional goods and/or services or a variation to the goods and/or services described on the website, we may revise our charges. We may also increase our charges if we feel the supply of goods and/or services has been complicated or taken longer than expected as a result of your instructions (or lack of instructions), the inaccuracy of information or data provided by you, or any other cause attributable to you. We will notify you if we believe our charges are likely to exceed those set out on the website.
6. When our charges must be paid
We will raise our invoice on delivery of the goods or completion of the services, unless it is agreed we will invoice you at any earlier date. You must make payment in full within 30 days of the date of our invoice. We accept payment in by cheque, by credit or debit card and by bank transfer.
The customer hereby acknowledges and agrees that its obligations to pay all amounts and charges due hereunder, and the rights of Overt Software Solutions Ltd to such payments shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable and shall not be affected by any circumstances of any character, including, without limitation, any set-off, abatement, counterclaim, suspension, recoupment, reductions, rescission, defence or other right or claim that customer may have against Overt Software Solutions Ltd.
