Terms & Conditions of Service |
Disputes
All payments after the first 7 days of service to Peak Web Guide are nonrefundable regardless of reason or usage. Any incorrect, overcharges or billing disputes must be reported within 7 days of the time the charge occurred. If you dispute a charge to your credit card issuer that, at Peak Web Guide sole discretion is a valid charge under the provisions of the TOS, you agree to pay Peak Web Guide, An "Administrative Fee" of $100 (7500 INR) per dispute.
Terms Of Payment
The Client and Peak Web Guide ask quotations before start of work. And if both parties agree then work will start and deliver. After delivery of work there is no bargain on the amount of work done by us. Sometimes the client does not ask for a quotation for similar work we did earlier. That means they agree to previous payment terms. If a client used our code to a different location, pages and website then they need to get permission from us otherwise the company asks to pay a royalty amount of that work. Clients need to pay when they get an invoice within 30 days otherwise. If the customer fails then the customer needs to pay 1% monthly interest of the total invoice amount and yearly compounding interest. If Customer fails to make a pending payment, then the company has the right to sell their domain website and refund the balance payment to the customer. And Peak Web Guide have the right to suspend their service without any notice.
Customer Abuse
We have zero tolerance for abusive language and/or abusive behavior towards our company and/or service we provide and/or our employees. Any customer deemed at our sole discretion to be abusive to our company and/or service we provide and/or our employees will result in immediate irrevocable account termination without any refund. Furthermore, posting negative feedback on any public forum about our company and/or our employees before submitting a ticket to our 'Feedback' department to discuss your issue will result in immediate account termination without any refund. Although it is your right to post feedback without discussing your issue with us first, it is undoubtedly unfair and unprofessional not to, which is not the type of client we want to deal with. We have the utmost respect for all of our clients, and are more than fair with all of our clients. We will do anything and everything possible to keep all of our clients satisfied. But in the unlikely event you are not satisfied, all that we ask is to discuss your issue with our 'Feedback' department first.
