If there are changes in the requirements or scope of the project, or changes or additions during the project term, 1 Choice Internet Ltd. reserves the right to bill for the additional services.

For all orders over £1,000.00 Sterling a non refundable deposit of 50% of the total agreed project value is to be paid in advance of commencement of work.

Upon completion of the project the remaining 50% balance must be paid in full before the project is transferred to the client's own domain or made live.

Payment must be made IN FULL for orders less than £1,000.00 Sterling before work will commence.

Unless agreed otherwise as part of the revised requirements, all payments should be made in Sterling, by direct bank transfer, bankers draft, money order, postal order, or by cheque drawn on a mainland UK bank and payable to "1 Choice Internet Ltd. Ltd.".
