Upon acceptance of a booking, an Advertising Purchase Order Contract will be dispatched representing that order, requesting the signature of the individual that ordered the space. Due to the nature of our business, it may be necessary to commence work on that order prior to receipt of that signed document in order to comply with production and server deadlines. Therefore, cancellations must be received in writing five days prior to the given copy deadline. Failure to sign & return the Advertising Purchase Order Contract does not in itself represent a cancellation of an order or invoice.
Invoices are processed in the week of going live to the business-focus.net or proteus-media.co.uk server. These would be addressed to the advertiser's finance department, quoting the name of the individual who initially ordered the space.
Payment is requested immediately [upon content upload to server] or within 14 to 30 days of the invoice date. If no payment or communication has been received after 14 to 30 days, business-focus.net or proteus-media.co.uk reserves the right to commence suitable recovery action. This may include forwarding your account to our legal department, who will instruct County Court proceedings against you, incurring interest and additional charges to your account. In addition, your details may be registered with a credit reference agency, which may make it difficult to obtain credit in the future.
The proprietors are not liable for any loss occasioned by the failure of any advertisement to appear from any cause whatsoever, nor do they accept liability for copy errors.
Although every care is taken in copy layout, refunds or credits will not be made unless corrections are notified immediately following the first insertion of a series. Where two or more insertions have been requested, advertisers are advised to check the first insertion carefully.
