- Fees for Hosting Packages are detailed at https://www.nerdle.uk and the Fees for Your chosen Hosting Package are confirmed in Your Order.

- All payments for Fees due under these Terms and Conditions must be made using a valid debit or credit card via one of Our chosen payment partners, WorldPay FuturePay or PayPal, or by bank transfer.
- WorldPay FuturePay - Payments made via WorldPay FuturePay create one of two types of agreement:
- Regular Agreements: used to pay set or variable amounts at regular, fixed intervals over a specific time. This is typically used, for example, to pay for Our Hosting Packages, products and/or services on a monthly or annual billing cycle - Recurring Payments.
Recurring Payment (regular) agreements are online arrangements, similar to Standing Orders and Direct Debits, set up for Us to obtain payment on a repeat or regular basis for the Hosting Packag(es), product(s) and/or service(s) purchased by You.
A Recurring Payment (regular) agreement is automatically set up when you choose a Hosting Package, product or service that is paid for by recurring payment (WorldPay FuturePay) from Us. You can view the agreed payment schedule before entering Your payment details to set up the agreement.
WorldPay then creates a unique reference number - called the WorldPay FuturePay Agreement ID - for the agreement which is displayed on the payment page after you have entered Your payment details and also sent to You in a confirmation email.
Once your agreement has been set up, We will automatically collect payments according to the type of agreement for as long as the agreement remains in force according Clause 16.
Each time a payment is debited from your card or bank account as part of Your agreement, transaction confirmation emails are generated by Our billing system and WorldPay WorldPay FuturePay and sent to the email address We/they have on record for You entered when Your agreement was created.
If your card expires or if a payment is not authorised, You will receive an email to inform You of the steps You need to take within Our billing system to resolve the issue. - Limited agreements: this type of agreement is used to pay set or variable amounts at non-fixed intervals. This type of agreement allows You to make separate purchases without having to re-enter your card details each time.
- Agreement Cancellation: You may cancel such agreement(s) at any time by advising Us, in writing, according to Clause 16.5 which will invoke termination according to Clause 17.
- Regular Agreements: used to pay set or variable amounts at regular, fixed intervals over a specific time. This is typically used, for example, to pay for Our Hosting Packages, products and/or services on a monthly or annual billing cycle - Recurring Payments.
- PayPal - Payments made via PayPal are subject to PayPal's own terms and conditions of service and We make no representations or warranties with respect to their services.
- Recurring Payments: Recurring payments created via PayPal set up a recurring payment scheme within Your PayPal account whereby PayPal will pay Us the set amount upon the scheme payment date. We do not access Your PayPal account in order to take payment.
- Cancellation: You may cancel such recurring payments at any time by advising Us, in writing, according to Clause 16.5 which will invoke termination according to Clause 17.
- In the event We receive notification of a Chargeback from Your card provider, WorldPay FuturePay or PayPal relating to payment for Services provided by Us to You, We reserve the right to immediately suspend the related Service(s) until such time as the chargeback is cancelled. In the event We are successful in defending a chargeback We reserve the right to charge You an administration fee of £100.
- All Fees shown are Net, unless otherwise indicated.
- Money Back Guarantee
- From the date of Your payment under Clause 4 We offer a 30 day money back guarantee during which You may cancel Your Order and receive a full refund if You are in any way unhappy with the Service.
- If You choose to take advantage of the money back guarantee, You should raise a support ticket to the Billing department using the subject line: "Refund Request", and providing full details of Your Account and Order.
- Please note that cancelling under this Clause 5 will result in the termination of the Service and thus the removal of Your Client Website from the Hosting Hardware. Any data You have not backed up Yourself will be lost.
- Please note that any fees associated with the purchase of domain names and/or licenses will be deducted from the refund as these are not refundable to Us.
- Changes to these Terms and Conditions
- We reserve the right to change these Terms and Conditions and any and all other terms and conditions and/or policies which may affect You in order to comply with changes in the law.
