If the {_Customer} provides such notice, then {_Provider} will test the {_Service} for non-compliance. If {_Provider} verifies the non-compliance, then {_Provider} shall, as the {_Customer}’s sole remedy, promptly take such action as is necessary to correct the non-compliance and shall provide the {_Customer} with a new {_Service_Commencement_Date}.

All non-recurring {_Charges} will be invoiced during the month in which they were incurred. All {_Charges} shall be due upon the {_Customer}’s receipt of the invoice and payable within {ChargesPaidWithin.TimeSpan} of the invoice date (without any deduction or set-off whatsoever save in any case of fraud or deceit on the part of {_Provider}). Billing for partial months will be prorated based on a calendar month.

5.Ti = Late Charges
5.sec = Any undisputed amount not paid to {_Provider} when due shall bear interest at {ChargesLatePaymentMonthlyInterestRate.%} per month or the highest rate permitted by applicable law, whichever is less, from the date payment falls due until payment is received by {_Provider}, both before and after judgement, such interest to be compounded monthly in arrears.

The {_Customer} is responsible for payment of all {_Taxes}. VAT will be invoiced in accordance with statutory requirements for such tax and shall be payable, subject to receipt by the {_Customer} of a valid VAT invoice. If the {_Customer} is required to pay a {_Tax} pursuant to this {Billing.Xref}.7, then the {_Customer} shall pay such amounts as are necessary to ensure that the net amounts received by {_Provider} after all such payments or withholdings equal the amount to which {_Provider} is otherwise entitled to under the {_Agreement} as if such {_Taxes} did not exist.
8.Ti = Fraudulent Use
