We don’t give business customers all the same rights as consumers

For example, business customers can’t cancel their orders, they have different rights where there is a problem with an order, and we don’t compensate them in the same way for losses caused by us or our services. Where a term applies just to businesses or just to consumers, this is clearly stated.

You are a business customer if you are buying services wholly or mainly for use in connection with your trade, business, craft or profession, even if you are an individual.

If you are a business customer this is our entire agreement with you

If you are a business customer these terms constitute the entire agreement between us in relation to your purchase. You acknowledge that you have not relied on any statement, promise, representation, assurance or warranty made or given by us or on our behalf which is not set out in these terms and that you have no claim for innocent or negligent misrepresentation or negligent misstatement based on any statement in this agreement.

We only accept orders when we’ve checked them

We contact you to confirm we’ve received your order and then we contact you again (normally within 48 hours) to confirm we’ve accepted it.

Sometimes we reject orders

Sometimes we reject orders. When this happens, we let you know as soon as possible and refund any sums you have paid.

We charge you when you order and we accept your order

However, for some services we take payment at regular intervals, as explained to you during the order process.

If you are a business customer, you have no set-off rights

If you are a business customer you must pay all amounts due to us under these terms in full without any set-off, counterclaim, deduction or withholding (other than any deduction or withholding of tax as required by law).

We charge interest on late payments

If we’re unable to collect any payment you owe us we charge interest on the overdue amount at the rate of 6.4% a year above the Bank of England base rate from time to time. This interest accrues on a daily basis from the due date until the date of actual payment of the overdue amount, whether before or after judgment. You pay us the interest together with any overdue amount.

We’re not responsible for delays outside our control

If our supply of your service is delayed by an event outside our control, we contact you as soon as possible to let you know and do what we can to reduce the delay. As long as we do this, we won’t compensate you for the delay, but if the delay is likely to be substantial you can contact our Customer Service Team: support@famshire.co.uk to end the contract and receive a refund for any service you have paid for in advance but not received.

  • Caused by a delaying event outside our control. As long as we have taken the steps set out in the section We’re not responsible for delays outside our control
  • Avoidable. Something you could have avoided by taking reasonable action.
