You agree to pay Pegas Technology Solutions for Products and Services without deduction, or delay for any reason. At any time, Pegas Technology Solutions may require you to pay a deposit or increase an existing deposit as a condition of providing Services.

You authorize Pegas Technology Solutions to investigate your credit history at any time and to share credit information about you with credit reporting agencies. Payment of all charges is due within three (3) days after the date of invoice, in U.S. currency. When you enroll in automatic payment in our billing system, the system attempts to capture a payment up to 3 day before the due date of the invoice. If the payment is successful, this is considered as the end of the billing period. Invoices are issued seven (7/14) days prior to subscription renewal dates (for example if you bill on the 15th of the month, an invoice is generated on the 8th of the month and must be paid in full by the 15th of the month).

Past due accounts that receive payments will have those payments applied to the oldest past due to invoices first. Failure to pay any invoice may place the account into default, and could lead to suspension of all services until the account is paid and current. You will be responsible for reimbursing Pegas Technology Solutions for all costs (including reasonable attorney fees) associated with collecting delinquent or dishonored payments.

Accounts not paid in full within three (3) days of the invoice due date may be suspended or terminated and a reconnection late fee of THIRTY-FIVE DOLLARS ($35) may be applied for each service in the overdue invoice.

Accounts not paid in full within fourteen (14) days of the invoice due date may be terminated and any past due invoices turned over to our collections service with an additional collections fee of SEVENTY-NINE DOLLARS ($79) will be applied in addition to any past due balance and/or late fees. A late fee of 1.5% will be applied monthly for services over 30 days past due.

If you dispute charges on your bill, you must notify Pegas Technology Solutions in writing of the dispute within sixty days of the date on the affected bill, or else you waive the dispute.

You hereby agree to be billed for your service(s) on an automatic renewal basis and your service(s) will continue to be billed until canceled by you pursuant to the terms of these Terms of Service.

All payment periods are for the full period. Example: If you pay for a service on a monthly, quarterly, biannually, annually, biennially, or triennially basis, the service shall remain active (barring it being suspended or terminated pursuant to other terms within these Terms of Service) for the full billing period and no prorated amount shall be refunded should you decide to cancel the service prior to the end of the billing period. In cases where Pegas Technology Solutions provides or offers a refund or service credit due to termination of your services prior to the end of a QUARTERLY, SEMI-ANNUAL, ANNUAL, BIENNIAL, AND TRIENNIAL BILLING PERIOD, such refund or service credit shall be calculated based upon converting the service back to the list price (non-discounted) normal monthly rate and applying a $175.00 (one hundred seventy five dollar) early termination fee. If the termination fee exceeds the amount of the prorated refund or service credit, no refund shall be issued.

More specifically - if you purchase a service with a semi-annual billing period at 50% off, Pegas Technology Solutions applies the full rate to the first three months of service, and the ensuing 3 months of the 6-month term are provided at no charge. As such, any cancellations placed during the time frame in which service is being provided at no charge shall be ineligible for a refund.

Cancellations requests MUST be made seven (7) or more days prior to expiration of the current billing cycle. Cancellations made within the last seven (7) days of the current billing cycle and marked "Cancel at end of billing period" will not be terminated until the end of following billing cycle and the invoice will be due and processed. Cancellations made within the last seven (7) days of the billing cycle and marked "Immediate cancel" will be terminated by midnight of the day of the cancellation request, and the current invoice will still be due and processed per our Terms of Service.

No refunds will be given on customized services/orders, associated setup fees and/or services/orders with explicitly requested and provided IP diversity, unless specified at the time of purchase.
