14. PRICE AND PAYMENT
14.1 Where to find the price for the Service. The price of the Service will be the price indicated on the order pages when you placed your order. Our prices are also set out on our website.

However please see clause 14.3 for what happens if we discover an error in the price of the Service you order.
14.2 We will pass on changes in the rate of VAT. If the rate of VAT changes between your order date and the date we supply the Service, we will adjust the rate of VAT that you pay, unless you have already paid for the Service in full before the change in the rate of VAT takes effect.
14.3 What happens if we got the price wrong. It is always possible that, despite our best efforts, our Service may be incorrectly priced. We will normally check prices before accepting your order so that, where the Service's correct price at your order date is less than our stated price at your order date, we will charge the lower amount. If the Service's correct price at your order date is higher than the price stated to you, we will contact you for your instructions before we accept your order. If we accept and process your order where a pricing error is obvious and unmistakeable and could reasonably have been recognised by you as a mispricing, we may end the contract and refund you any sums you have paid.
14.4 Changes in price. Many Landlords subsidise the cost of us providing the Service to you, which reduces the cost we charge you for an initial fixed period. At the end of this fixed period, the price you will pay will increase to our standard price. We shall notify you of this change as set out in clause 7.2.
14.5 When you must pay and how you must pay. When you submit your order, you will pay:
14.5.1 the annual cost of the Service;

You can also pay by cheque or bank transfer. We do not accept payment by cash sent in the post.
14.6 We can charge interest if you pay late. If you do not make any payment to us by the due date, we may charge interest to you on the overdue amount at the rate of 4% a year above the base lending rate of Barclays Bank plc from time to time. This interest shall accrue on a daily basis from the due date until the date of actual payment of the overdue amount, whether before or after judgment. You must pay us interest together with any overdue amount.
