  • if you haven't agreed a time beforehand, it must be carried out within a reasonable time.

9. Price and payment

9.1 Where to find the price for the digital gift card. The price of the digital gift card (which includes VAT) will be the price indicated on the order pages when you placed your order. We take all reasonable care to ensure that the price of the digital gift card advised to you is correct. However please see clause 9.3 for what happens if we discover an error in the price of the digital gift card you order.

9.2 We will pass on changes in the rate of VAT. If the rate of VAT changes between your order date and the date we supply the digital gift card, we will adjust the rate of VAT that you pay, unless you have already paid for the digital gift card in full before the change in the rate of VAT takes effect.

9.3 What happens if we got the price wrong. It is always possible that, despite our efforts, some of the digital gift cards we sell may be incorrectly priced. We will normally check prices before accepting your order so that, where the digital gift card's correct price at your order date is less than our stated price at your order date, we will charge the lower amount. If the digital gift card's correct price at your order date is higher than the price stated to you, we will contact you for your instructions before we accept your order. If we accept and process your order where a pricing error is obvious and unmistakeable and could reasonably have been recognised by you as a mispricing, we may end the contract, refund you any sums you have paid and require that you destroy any electronic or paper copy you hold of the gift card.

If we fail to comply with these terms, we are responsible for loss or damage you suffer that is a foreseeable result of our breaking this contract or our failing to use reasonable care and skill, but we are not responsible for any loss or damage that is not foreseeable. Loss or damage is foreseeable if either it is obvious that it will happen or if, at the time the contract was made, both we and you knew it might happen, for example, if you discussed it with us during the sales process.

10.2 We do not exclude or limit in any way our liability to you where it would be unlawful to do so. This includes liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence or the negligence of our employees, agents or subcontractors; for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation; for breach of your legal rights as summarised at clause 8.2; and for defective products under the Consumer Protection Act 1987

12.5 Even if we delay in enforcing this contract, we can still enforce it later. If we do not insist immediately that you do anything you are required to do under these terms, or if we delay in taking steps against you in respect of your breaking this contract, that will not mean that you do not have to do those things and it will not prevent us taking steps against you at a later date. For example, if you miss a payment and we do not chase you but we continue to provide the digital gift cards, we can still require you to make the payment at a later date.

12.6 Which laws apply to this contract and where you may bring legal proceedings.
