If your credit card information has changed, then you must notify us immediately so we may change this information. If on your bill date, your credit card is declined, or payment is not made, you will get a notice that your account will be suspended in 5 days. If after this notice and 5 days has passed your account may be interrupted temporarily and an email will be sent to the address on file to notify you of this problem. If payment is not arranged within 14 days, we will close your account, and any files will be lost. All prices are in US Dollars (USD). Any other payments, such as check or bank transfer must be received to be posted by the due date for your account.
Credit Card Payments
We are happy to accept Visa, Mastercard, American Express cards for payment. We use various fraud prevention methods to protect us, our merchant account, our bank and the customer who owns the credit card being used. This includes tracking the IP number and ISP of the person who is using the credit card, verifying the card matches the Zip Code and Address of the cardholder. If anyone attempts to obtain service using a fraudulent or unauthorized credit card, your hosting account will be terminated without warning, we will have the right to place an 'account suspended' page on your IP, and we will cooperate with authorities to report the incident and the information used to obtain the account including your domain name. We will also bill you for all charges to us, including but not limited to bank fees, amounts charged back, plus 5%. We take credit card fraud very seriously.
