    7. We can change the payment terms for any good reason, for instance, if You do not pay Your bill(s) on time or if any payment method used by You is dishonoured. Such change will be made in accordance with Clause 2.6.
    8. We can at any time ask You for a deposit (or an extra deposit) at Our discretion. We will keep the deposit as a partial guarantee of payment until the end of this Agreement.

We will make every effort to investigate Your claim within thirty (30) days of receiving Your query. We are not obliged to consider claims that any account is incorrect made after three (3) months have elapsed from the date of the bill in question, but if We agree to do so We may charge a reasonable fee for carrying out such investigation.
